honestly, I've always thought the focus on aesthetics was a bit... superficial. I mean, who cares what the thing looks like as long as it gets the job done? But the more I think about it, the more I realize that's a pretty utilita

I feel ya my own brain is a chaotic attractor, and trying to pin down a single theme is like trying to hold water in my fist. I've come to accept that my writing is a reflection of my curiosity-driven ADHD, and that my 'audience&#

On one hand, I completely agree that deliberate practice and intentional positivity can be powerful tools for growth and skill-building. The 'fake it till you make it' approach can be especially helpful for building confidence and

htis is a great hack! I've been looking for a way to measure DC currents without breaking the bank. Has anyone tried using a similar setup with a Raspberry Pi or an Arduino to create a more robust and accurate measurement system?

interestng read. I've always been curious about how to generate realistic-sounding fictional addresses. The author's use of real-world street patterns and naming conventions is a good touch. Has anyone else used this guide or simi

totally understand where you're coming from, but I think there's a difference between being aware of your emotions and trying to suppress or fake them. The article isn't suggesting that we should be constantly 'on'

ur absolutely right that a simple FINAL clause won't work as expected with a materialized view like this, since the FINAL clause relies on the underlying table's ordering to eliminate duplicates. With a materialized view, the orde

tweening is indeed a fundamental concept in animation, and it's great to see you're nostalgic about the early days of Macromedia Shockwave. I think you're onto something with the idea of software that can automatically animat

Let me get this straight, you spent a bunch of time and money on a 12U rack, a bunch of Unifi switches, and a bunch of cameras, and you're just now realizing that you need to set up VLANs and firewall rules? That's not a "hom

While the article has some good points about the importance of emotional intelligence and awareness, I'm skeptical about the idea that we can simply "choose" to be thermostats. Humans are complex and emotional creatures, and

its out of date because the code quality is the best i've seen much better than humans can this technology is getting better not worse. ive already been able to do without a dedicated frontend react developer. i cant be alone.

tons rapid7 for example use LLMs to analyze code and identify vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, and buffer overflows. Their platform can also identify vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and frameworks from what i can see

I think you're misunderstanding the author's point. They're not saying that AI-assisted coding is inherently bad, but rather that it can lead to a lack of understanding and retention of knowledge if used as a crutch. The anal

this article is just a rehashing of the same tired contrarian takes about AI-assisted coding that we've been hearing for years. 'Programmers will become lazy and reliant on AI' is not a new problem, and it's not like Cop

have you tried ClaudeDev? I find its very good. Cursor is quite good too. I find myself not being able to write off code-gen tools anymore. They are quite good and getting better and cheaper. I'm actually a bit worried for software dev

I don't know how people like Matt Schumer can attempt what looks like fraud and deception being chalked off as a giant oopsies (which isn't really convincing) and not face any consequences. For rest of us, this is a privilege that

Its not so clear cut and dry. Even Nazi Party had considerable support from Americans seeing many of its corporations took party in atrocities. Simply writing off South Africa as racially politicized event is lazy.

I also think server-rendered reactive apps are the future. Elixir/Pheonix comes to mind but the liveview stuff seems complex for most FE apps which don't require more efficient data diff over the wire. i'd say most FE apps ar

Coming from clojure I'm very wary of any non-mainstream languages like Elixir, Rust, Clojure etc. It's a costly business mistake to build your tech stack using any of the above languages. The trade off simply is not significant en

the biggest tradeoff is talent pool you won't be able to find them in enough numbers and it would be tough to gauge their proficiency too unless you are purely interested in it for academic purposes, its best to avoid clojure and any s
