It's true for most of the modern web. Hardware and internet connections have come reliable and fast enough for many people not to care. Unfortunately there are still people on metered/slow connections that really do care still.

Something extra hilarious about the UX of the website causing me to mis-click. I tried to watch the YouTube video but the UX popped in and caused me to click on some other random link.

What's the Matter with Kansas? (2004) by Thomas Frank explores some of this, but centered around Kansas. Pretty interesting (and frustrating) stuff.

Maybe a laid-off engineer is bored and started orchestrating DDoS campaigns in their newly-found free time.

For staging/committing I haven't found anything that I've liked more than Git Extensions' Commit view. One of the main things I like about it is that it does _not_ auto refresh. A long time ago with SourceTree I'd

Totally agree. The house we bought in 2019 has a Subzero and it's the best fridge I've had. No frills (other than an ice maker), it just works. I dread the day I have to repair or replace it ($$) but it's been rock solid i

That is interesting. We use QuickJS in Minecraft (Bedrock, for modding) and while it's much slower than V8 it's not _that_ much slower.

We've worked a lot on the Typescript/JavaScript APIs available for Bedrock so most content on Bedrock platforms (console, mobile, etc) is heavily script-based. It will always be more limited that Java modding but is catching up in

Apple also has great long term support. They just shipped security updates for the iPhone 6S which came out 10 years ago.

I have a feeling in today's administration which largely "leads by tweet" that many traditional "inefficient" steps have been removed from government processing, probably including software on-boarding.

A lot of great YouTube videos on personal hydro setups on small sized creeks. Even just a few hundred watts running 24/7/365 is an incredible resource.

It's pretty funny how full circle this is. This was exactly how it was when I was in middle school in flip-phone days (and it happened to me once!).

Dropout annoys me with some of their UX decisions. I know it's a younger app, but every time I go to watch a longer-run show (Game Changer for example) it defaults me to Season 1, Episode 1. I want the latest stuff, not the oldest!

CCS1/2 (DC Fast charging) and J1772 (AC "Slow" charging) share a port on most cars. That is, the CCS plug uses the entire plug and the J1772 part uses just the upper portion of the plug. The AC "slow" charging in t
