Discord is honestly not great for work, but there are lots of other tools. I think they should focus on what’s made them successful, which is gamers and communities.

Backend performance issues can grind your system to a halt. It’s basically a requirement for Discord to work reliably. Front-end performance is not a hard requirement for most end users, unless the app is actually unusable. Discord isn’t th

You should watch this video: https://youtu.be/RPzcGeiNYvk And it IS farcical! I mean, look at the FIFA “peace prize.” They literally invented it to give to Trump because he was threatening US World Cup matches. What’s farci

The shareholders don’t care. Yet another example in the long list of late stage capitalism problems. The only thing these executives are allowed to care about is money & profit. If Trump is able to unilaterally threaten those profits (v

Lots of 3rd party tools to help, like Rectangle or Raycast. And at least the most recent macOS release has auto-snap and tiling features: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/mac-help/mchlef287e5d/... T

I mean it’s an obvious decision to not accept cards if you can avoid it. You’re letting a company like Amex siphon up to 3% of your income away in perpetuity. Business owners are forced to accept this situation because customers have your e

Sure, it’s hard, but a duopoly is skimming LITERALLY 1-3% off the entire consumer economy for a service that is not that expensive to operate. Additionally, interchange rates are higher for premium credit cards, to pay for the benefits (not

Curious for the big examples. Some major things EVs don’t have: oil changes, belts/chains, transmissions, most things related to the engine & drive train are different… seems like the main similarities would be tires, brakes, body

Yep. As someone in a similar position to influence this, I’ll also be pushing for at least significant discounts in our contract. The challenge with migrating off for enterprise is going to be integrations & compliance. There are dozens

Representation needs to be less about black/white political ideology and more about the specific needs of various people. Farmers need representation, white color workers need representation, small business owners need representation,

Not so much when there’s a race to the bottom for which municipalities, and states can offer the most tax breaks.

But this is entirely besides the point. The point of MCP is bundling those exact things into a standardized plugin that’s easy for people to share with others. MCP is useful because I can add one in a single click for an external service (s

by anon7000 9mo ago
There has been some improvement in that area. But at the end of the day, MCP is about making it easy/standard to pull in context from different sources. For example, to get logs from a CI run for my PR, or to look at jira tickets, or t

People can do whatever they want with their own issue trackers, including making them a todo list. They represent real things he wants to see changed in the software

That’s the nice thing about buildkite. Generate the pipeline in whatever language you want and upload as JSON or yaml.

Pretty short list for a big market. Lots more WordPress options, other SaaS like Webflow, Squarespace. It’s just a marketing blogspam page, not very interesting.

Meh, he’s been very fairly calling out AI companies for over-promising and under-delivering, along with critiquing the idea that training LLMs on bigger data will solve AGI. He’s vocal and perhaps sometimes annoying, but who cares. A number

I’ve had more hard crashes and BSODs on Windows than any other OS. And I use Linux & Mac more than Windows. Not sure how it’s superior.

Solar + battery is good enough & cheap enough (and recyclable enough). But agreed that multiple renewable energy sources aren’t a bad thing! Solar + battery is just so good at staying stable and productive for decades with no moving par

What matters is that the parent comment said “Apple is an ad company now,” as if that negated all the privacy and security stuff they do. Making some cash on ads doesn’t have to rely on targeted tracking. That only matters if ads are an e

The problem is that AI companies are selling, advertising, and shipping AI as a tool that works most of the time for what you ask it to do. That’s deeply misleading. The product itself is telling you in plain English that it’s ABSOLUTELY CE

A worthwhile book to read on this topic is Outlive by Peter Attia (MD). The core premise is that American healthcare focuses far too much on treating problems after they’re extremely severe. It is would be cheaper and healthier to invest mo

I’ve found only one good code review bot, and that’s Unblocked. It doesn’t always leave a comment, and when it does, it’s often found 1-2 real bugs in the code crossing multiple files (even like “hey you forgot to update this reference in t

Bluesky is designed the way it is because of scale. How do you make a p2p app that can handle hundreds of millions of posts per day without beefy servers helping? Bsky is designed so that the microservices themselves can be decentralized an

Yep, plus their network is pretty new anyways. Which generally needs less maintenance than older infrastructure.

Bingo. As they say, “motion is lotion.” Staying in any position for a long time (even a “good” posture) is going to cause problems. Better being active if you’re passive, resting if you’re active, moving around, taking breaks, and basically

Not necessarily. For example, Buildkite lets you host your own runners.

Frankly, we need to get to a place where it is impossible to do shut down the internet in a country like this. P2P and distributed networks might see a resurgence here
