Why only US/Canada?

Some people quit for lifestyle reasons. Some of us have health pushing us to quit. Unfortunately for me, the latter was the case. And what I described is just something that worked for me.

As a similar "addict" who quit caffeine almost cold-turkey last year, I have to say, the withdrawl symptoms are very real. But they also fade as days pass. Attempt quitting when you can afford to not be at 100% for a few days at a

They will for this too. Github actions aren't free. They just have a generous free tier.

This is true. Visual Studio isn't particularly hackable. It sure is very configurable though.

In 2020, yes. It's 3 seconds. But in the glory days of DevC++ (when it was managed by Bloodshed), it was a heck of a lot longer than 3 secs. Not to mention, DevC++ was free. VS was not. I'm not saying Dev C++ is better than VS. It

You double click the icon. And then you start typing code. Visual Studio has never been quite that fast. It may not have as comprehensive a feature set as VS. But it's an excellent hackable IDE for enthusiasts.

I've probably used 2 dozen IDEs over the entire time I've been writing code. But Dev-cpp will ALWAYS have a special place.

It has been so long since I've used TW. But It makes me so happy that this project is still chugging along.

It's a good learning tool, and if you want to use React for some specific reason this may be a good starting point. But not otherwise. Otherwise django + react makes sense when there're different people (or teams) handling the fro

I think you missed my point. That's not just the login page. That's the bundle for the entire app.

They charge $100 a year. It already is very costly (for us).

Go ahead and load the hey login page. The js bundle your browser downloaded right there is the entire bundle for the whole email app. What size is it?

If you can get away with hosting static html files, there's not much else that's more performant. The comparison is only between server rendered HTML vs backend API + some frontend rendering locally (which is not as performant) an

Yes this is the new magic stuff. But I doubt they'll integrate this into Rails. They'll just create better and better tooling to make using this with rails a cinch. I think this will just remain backend agnostic, like turbolinks a

It's really not Rails + Hotwire. It's any backend + hotwire. It works just fine with Django.

Getting turbo is trivial on any backend. Just include the js. Stimulus is also not any different from any other javascript you'll write. There's no need for any kind of scaffolding from the backend stack except for some features -

It's not rails. It's very specifically backend agnostic. Source: I've been using turbolinks and stimulus with Django for a good year and a half.

Hackernews, Crigslist, the old redddit (which is still VERY actively used). The list goes on.

We gotta wait and see what Strada has in store. Looks like Basecamp and Hey mobile apps are fairly good.

Complicating READMEs may not be the best idea. This is under the assumption that README will be rendered in a full featured web browser which may not always be the case. That said, I definitely see how this can become invaluable in document

Seriously! I've been following them since the intercooler days and they've been great (functionally) although maybe a little drowned out by all the SPA chatter. Still a great library IMO.
