For something that's open-source, production ready thanks to the lovely folks at Mozilla, and ready to host on your own infrastructure check out Kinto[1]. Replicache and Kinto have overlapping feature sets, but my guess is that Replica

I have a Samsung 49" 32:9 ultrawide with a resolution of 5120x1440. The primary reason I went with this monitor is that I use two computers: one provided by my employer and another provided by the government agency I'm contracting

Not offering anything besides a Google sign-in option is a deal breaker for me. Kind of bummed, but I figure by the time it gets going they'll implement a more traditional sign-in.

As a remote worker (and as someone who prefers remote work) I feel like this is attempting to recreate the feeling of stopping by someone's desk in an office. If that's what you want to recreate, I think this is an interesting app

Not trying to be snarky, but did you read the article or did you skim it? The author explains the reasoning behind the walkie-talkie approach versus a phone call.

FWIW, Tesla has been incredibly clear that yes, the Model 3 and Model Y are designed for a self-driving future. They even made sure that they could easily remove the steering wheel and replace it with a cover.

No, it just supports TypeScript out of the box.

IIRC Flipboard once tried this approach, rendering everything to a <canvas>. As it stands right now, that will never be a viable solution for the reasons you mentioned, along with the fact you throw literally all accessibility feature

The Pax app let's you set dosage controls so that you can always get a consistent hit each time. The new Era Pro even remembers the dosage based on which pod you're using, which is super useful for me since I have a sativa pod set

In the case of the acceleration boost update, it's more like "we wrote a new firmware for several subsystems that increases your acceleration". It's not enabling hardware that already exists, but is disabled. It's t

Edge (and Chromium) both use a custom C++ UI framework. Chrome wrote the framework to be cross-platform, so Edge was able to take advantage of that to deliver the macOS version. AFAIK there's no WinUI XAML components being used.

I'm really curious why they released to stable with so many basic features missing. For example, your bookmarks won't sync between devices (although that was recently re-enabled in the preview channels). It sounds like they'r

To be completely fair, virtually every app I've ever used has a "Send Feedback" function in the settings, and quite a few of them use both a bottom app bar along with some sort of overflow menu. Biggest example would be Googl

Starbucks has a PWA! You can get to it via app.starbucks.com. I'm not sure why it's not the default experience, but they're definitely already sharing code between starbucks.com and the PWA since the ordering experience is ex

Sorry, I was apparently producing a development build. I'm used to create-react-app, which eliminates this exact scenario by always building in production mode, so that people can't accidentally ship a development build to product

Ah yes, I didn't realize "ember build" produced a development build. For comparison, create-react-app always builds in production mode to eliminate this exact scenario!

One of the things I really wish Ember would focus on is reducing the amount of JavaScript shipped to the browser. I just tried out the included project with ember-cli, and the default JavaScript bundle is 2.7 MB (591 KB gzipped)[1] for an a

Oh, awesome! I just installed Riot 0.9.9, so I'm going to test that out and see if the issue occurs. After that I'll switch to RiotX and check there as well and report any issues I find.

I don't think this issue is related to soft logout, which is what happens when the user logs out of a device remotely. The issue I was running into was that the app, after 24 hours of being logged in, would get stuck in an initializati

I really hope this means more development and focus on building great mobile apps for Matrix. For the past four months the Riot Android app has had this bug where login state expires after a day and the app gets stuck in an infinite loop tr

Unfortunately FaunaDB isn't a SQL database, so it's in the same class as things like Cloud Firestore, AWS DynamoDB, and Mongo Atlas. Good datastores for serverless applications, but not so great for traditional applications migrat

Yes, Cloud Run requires your Cloud SQL instance to have a public IP address.

Cloud Run user here. It does not support running a database as a Cloud Run service; you'd need to connect to a Cloud SQL instance. This is one area I really hope PaaS providers improve on in the future. The closest thing at the moment

I had a friend who had an interlock device; it was so unreliable, and triggered so many false positives that his sentence was extended because the DMV thought he was regularly driving drunk. What's worse is that when the device had a p

I don't think this is accurate. I'm fairly sure Apple Pay uses tokenization, so the merchant/merchant bank never sees the actual card details. The only party in the transaction who knows the actual card details is the issuing
