This looks pretty cool! I've been using Kapwing for similar purposes ( https://www.kapwing.com/ ) and this reminds me of Kapwing in its earlier days. Definitely a bit basic without all the effects and overlays, but looks

It's kinda surprising that symmetric-key algorithms have been so resistant to attacks. I'm primarily an applications developer, and I feel like I've used tons of asymmetric key algorithms. Where is symmetric key cryptography

Thankfully, `innerText` has been standardized by WhatWG for a while now [1]. Usually, it accomplishes what you want to do (lay text and have it be visible in that form) as well or better than `textContent`. As such, I generally use that tod

While I don't think Levandowski is a good guy (he did take a bunch of files, even if I think it's unlikely they were used in any real way), I think the way Google pursued him hinders skilled individuals from switching between comp

Does this macro need to be placed in the same file as the type itself? That's what I suspect (given this is an eslint transform), and it's not a big limitation, but it'd be helpful to know

This is really cool! I'm working with a customer support team and getting the right amount of staffing was always a challenge. To really reliably have good support with low wait times for 95% of the time, you'd end up being overst

This is really cool! Our search-engine-based impressions dropped substantially in early Feb. and because we didn't have that in our main dashboards, it took us almost 2 weeks to discover that. Orbiter would've been pretty useful f

This kinda sucks, but as someone who was in China for Chinese New Year (when all large gatherings were banned), I understand the reasoning. That being said, I think we at Wanderlog (W19) would've needed much longer to raise if not for

We aren't using PHP for Wanderlog (which is built with Node.js), but did use it for many of our projects before 2015. There really was (is?) no faster environment to get started with a single dynamic page that can submit a form and dis

While I think this site shows how to do SEO effectively, I didn't find it particularly useful as a gift ideas site. The gifts were fairly random - I'd appreciate some kind of categorization and explanation of why each gift might b

In my experience, this cycle of "add features and performance regresses" and "fix performance" is actually not a bad way to do it, because it allows for better overall budgeting. If you're constantly ensuring that p

I think the point in the article about it being less useful if you already have a decent network is huge. What we saw in VC is that warm intros are so much more productive than even YC Demo Day leads (which are in turn slightly better than
