I’ve always found CSS trivial to use and I’ve done some complex styles. I really wonder what people who complain about CSS are doing.

I have also been doing CSS for 20 years but it seems you have some skill issues?

“I believe a lot of the negativity towards CSS stems from not really knowing how to use it. Many developers kind of just skip learning the CSS fundamentals in favor of the more interesting Java- and TypeScript, and then go on to complain ab

I feel like this gif captures the feeling a lot of us are experiencing; https://media1.tenor.com/m/RFe1swp-ZwkAAAAd/diablo-joke.gif Arial, really? Arial?

A lot of designers I know look down with disgust at Arial so it was a weird choice...

Because humans love to cargo cult. They should have just remade Helvetica the superior font instead of it's cheap knock off.

Yea, if you are going to spend so much money why make a carbon copy of font that is a bad copy of another font? Why not just make a copy of Helvetica instead of it's knock off or I would have made a new font in the style of the former

That's not even valid HTML...

It will always be Personal Home Page to me. Those lame open source names that have the acronym in the name are 1000000% more cringe. I agree with you about the rest :)

Donna was arrogant and that caused the friction between her and Cameron, I found Donna in the end to be soulless and awful.

Doesn’t mean that they are right.

I’m sorry but Personal Home Page is not shit. It’s quite nice, it’s like using a comfy version of C designed for the web.

PHP has been relentlessly mocked for the past decade, there were websites dedicated to making fun of its quirks. Things only started turning around after PHP 7.

I think there is still some use to diction. For me it’s a great way to get screenplays on paper. I can type fast but I can think and speak faster. I just record a stream of thought of the story/video I want, even if I jump all over the

I got the same email. This is theft and not only will this not make me buy more credits, it will make sure I will never buy credits on anthropic ever again. I was using haiku to run a small free webapp and the llm provider can be changed. T

I just can’t stand reading serif fonts on a screen. The site is not compelling enough to power through the torture the font induces.

Please elaborate, I’m working on an image editor made with JavaScript.

Rust exist because people have skill issues. Same deal with typescript.

by archerx 1y ago
You say that but I will never use Rust because of it's awful syntax, I'll stick with C/C++ and be happy and not miss out on anything. I don't know much about erlang so I have no comments on it.

by archerx 1y ago
Yea but the syntax looks like a mix of Python and JavaScript. By just seeing that I know I don’t want to use it, by seeing the code up front I know that I don’t want to keep reading what ever rationalizations they have to justify the existe

Gawker was a terrible website filled with terrible, hypocritical people who got what they deserved.

Yea, if it was truly private we would not know about it. It’s 2025 and people are still falling for PR firm tricks.

A.I. Upscalers seem to bypass those. The Stable Diffusion API invisibly watermarks the outputed images and I accidentally discovered the upscalers removed it.
