This is why I refuse to use create-react-app. I can appreciate the convenience and have learned a few things from reading its source, but I need to understand the entire application I'm building from the ground up.

I personally prefer inkscape for working with text. It's imperfect, to be sure, but I like it a hell of a lot better than GIMP.

Very cool. I don't know if this counts as a bug as it's not really the intended use, but if I copy one of the results and then paste it into the "Write something here..." input, all the results then match the pasted sty

Are you trying to say that the TRS-80 wasn't a top-of-the-line luxury computer?

I believe the full term is "ride-hailing app[lication]", which does fit these services, specifically because they can't be used without the apps. I agree that the shortened version doesn't fit.

I use a caribiner and a belt loop. I think a bracelet would be a pretty great form factor for a key fob.

The single place I've lived the longest in my life was a little apartment in "East Williamsburg" (read: Bed-Stuy / Bushwick). I was five stops away from the LES on the JMZ and the L and my rent barely notched up annuall

I feel like three-to-four weeks may be a better minimum, but also clearly a luxury that most can't afford. Not only are we accustomed to the two-day weekend, but there's also the rest of life to squeeze into a couple hours a day a

Nice projects. I remember "Websites in 2018" showing up on here not too long ago. I just came back from a two week "stay-cation", and I found something similar. Sure, for the first couple days I wasting as much time as

Back when I was doing tech-work in the financial districts of Chicago and NYC (late 90s, early 00s), some of my very favorite people were salesmen and analysts who had built these intricate and complex applications on top of Excel or Access

Thanks for this note. I always wondered why places in Pilsen and Little Village were below the sidewalk.

Replacing keep is annoying because there's no export and Google takeout dumps HTML files for each note, and not very good ones. That may have improved by now, but it was an issue for me about 6 months ago.

I don't think this comment matters, but since so many other comments on this article are speaking up against, maybe it does. I don't care, at all whatsoever, if this person wants to use JavaScript for their blog. Otherwise, nice a

I agree with this wholeheartedly, but also know it would be an incredibly difficult uphill battle, culturally, to make such a thing work. Chicago residents not only love their cars but also seem to feel absolutely entitled to the idea that

I grew up in Chicago. I've lived in Brooklyn, LA, Seattle, and now I'm back in Chicago. As far as I'm concerned, there's a ton more "city" in those neighborhoods than those high-rises. Density is only one var

That about sums it up for me. Unsurprised disappointment. Was great to have it. I'll miss it. I hope someone picks up where they left off. I'm unsure whether I'll be willing to pay for it if someone does. Gmail is still f

Are you saying Brooklyn, The Bronx, and the neighborhoods outside of downtown Chicago are suburbs? If so, we may have vastly different ideas about the definition of a city. Also, Seattle, Philly, Boston, Miami, and lots of other smaller cit

I looked up the tool that this website wraps. I hadn't heard of exiftool before and generally use mediainfo, font-config, and ffmpeg for this sort of data. I haven't read perl in a very long time, but this library is clean and w

I used to assume it was just due to a poorly organized back room, or possibly laziness. But it's seemed more that they're not understanding the question as asked. How often does someone walk into their store and ask them to bring

Unfortunately, DSW generally maxes out at size 13. Otherwise, I agree, and really appreciate how DSW works. Nordstrom Rack is a pretty great place to shop without asking for someone to "fetch" shoes for you as well, and they tend

It's very rare that I shop for shoes in person any more, but the few times I've found myself in a shoe store in the past few years, I'll generally just ask a rep to bring me or point out everything they have in a size 14, whi

Unfortunately, I've no tricks to share. I've just been trying to stay more mindful of my blinking in general, and when I notice my eyes are completely dried out, I take a break.

My night vision is also significantly deteriorated. I can drive fine at night, as I can see lights and reflective surfaces just fine, but walking around at night is definitely more difficult, and sometimes concerning. I'd had issues w

This is the _one_ thing I miss about getting my eyesight fixed. Within a month of getting laser surgery, it was so natural that I'd essentially forgotten the experience of glasses and contacts, as though I'd never experienced the

(I didn't downvote your posts either) I went on a weird tangent with my reply to this comment and just I'm just going to replace it with this. I generally agree with what you're saying as a means forward, but I also think Re

They do sometimes reference the "wisdom of the masses" in their reviews as well, where they'll occasionally reference the overall ratings from various sources within the detailed portions of their reviews. I'm generally
