I'm working on a shared bookmark manager called LinkPickle, mostly for my wife and I to send each other links. Think Linkwarden but pickle themed and not nearly as fleshed out. https://github.com/erellsworth/linkpi

This is going to keep happening until there are some real regulations with teeth in place. If your private data is leaked, the company responsible should have to pay you some significant amount proscribed by federal law, regardless of wheth

This is because of the CHIPS act. Other than Trump's constant whinging about China, he didn't have anything to do with this.

Discrimination against who? The poors? Isn't that a major part of what banks do?

Looks like you're getting down voted a lot for this but it's all true. Trump only became president because the electoral college weighs geography higher than population. So does the senate.

Websites aren't the way they are because JavaScript frameworks exist or because these frameworks are popular. These frameworks exist to solve common problems and provide common features. The web sucks because of the ubiquity of the adv

The number of very wealthy people shopping at Walmart is probably so small that developing this feature wouldn't be worth the effort.

Because marketing departments like to have lots of features to advertise. There's a lot of money in selling people things they don't need or even want.

I love Fork. I only wish it ran on Linux.

Thank you for the explanation.

My first dev job was all WordPress stuff. The guy I worked for used the ability of clients to manage their own site as his main selling point. This was years before Gutenberg, and I don't think ACF was a thing yet. I spent a lot of tim

Except you don't need 2 million or even 1 million upfront to buy. That's what a mortgage is for. To pull off your plan, you would need at least a million upfront.

I don't see how that changes the fundamental issue. You have to have a huge amount of capital to even get this idea off the ground. Say your rent in nyc is $3500/month, that means you'd need around a million dollars in your s

Say your rent is $1,500/month. That adds up to $18,000 per year. That means you'll need at least $450,000 in the bank, assuming a 4% APY, to earn that $18,000 in interest. So, you'd need a pretty large amount of capital to st

I think a little bit of fear is a good thing when it comes to power tools, especially those that have spinning blades. That said, if you have the budget a SawStop might help you overcome your fear enough to start using a table saw.

You sound like a mechanic who dumps his used motor oil down a storm drain to avoid the expense of proper disposal. Yeah, it's good for you, but it pollutes the environment for everyone. You are polluting the digital commons. You should

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Depending on how the final bill is written, simply equipping the vehicle with an AM radio might be enough to satisfy the regulation, even if the reception is so poor as to make it almost unusable.
