It would be cool if you could "import" companies into this and have like a public library of various companies and better understand what they did. That would make learning about a company way more interactive. Although I'm n

Unpopular take on NPM: NPM is a very good package manager registry. It's just extremely popular because javascript is extremely popular and the entry barrier is tiny compared to other languages and registries. These issues would pop up

Any for profit company does not act with 100% pure morale moves. Some do less some do more good, where do you draw the line? Google does a lot of good too, educating, bringing Internet to people who never had it before, being a diverse empl

If you want yaml based configs and running on a non HomeAssistant provided OS you are already making it hard for yourself. This is not the most popular route and therefore also less supported my advice: - use a raspberry-pi with Home Assist

This article is filled with misinformation and seems unnecessary hostile. I think the only reason it got so many points is because it's a hate on Atlassian thread. The implementation seems perfectly normal, I would guess 90% of all dev

That's a feature not a problem. It's free software you can run it anywhere you like. And they give you some advice and "ads" which stuff to buy which it runs best one.

VMware is a highly complicated piece of software relying on a lot of internals of how macOS works. I think it's reasonable to expect that it won't "just work" I don't say you have to update, but in time security upd

This is really weird thing to complain about. When your partner builds her entire dev environment against a very specific version, packages etc. and then you expect it to just work next macOS Version? If you don't put any effort into u

As I commented[1] I think the syntax is flawed in the proposal. You need to weirdly create a magic string to define your handler. Why not make it an actual argument, then using already existing constants is easier. [1] https://gi

I am aware. but the browser engine itself is not the issue. The UI is. I use firefox on my iPad quite a lot and it has the issue of randomly going fully blank when opening a link in a new tab. Or the UI being stuck for a few seconds. Neith

I was a 10+ year User of Chrome. I loved that Browser and I tried Firefox maybe every 2-3 years for a day and was always unhappy. Made the switch around 3 months ago to Firefox and it's been great. I don't miss anything from Chrom

This just totally depends on your country and ISP. In Germany most ISPs don't even give you a dynamic IPv4, it's cgnat so you share with a lot of other people. But there are ways around it. I use Cloudflare Tunnel and that way I d

Jetbrain IDE's also support these. So It's more of a standard than other things currently.

I own a Sonicare. All it does is vibrate and blink shortly after you are done brushing when it's time to "refill" It doesn't even do that after every time you used the head "too much". Not sure how much it remi

It's not super random. They email your before at least. Mine has been shut down once in 3 months. Which I think is fair enough considering I run 2 machines with 8gb RAM each and 2 arm cores each. Insane value.

Some things are heavily optimized to promote their ecosystem, I agree. But it's Apple software so it's expected they want you to use their ecosystem. But they always provide an escape hatch. Yes random binaries are harder to run,

The issue is Forgejo doesn't really have the know-how or capabilities to drive this project forward. In the past months all they have done is rebrand Gitea and some minor fixes, but upstream (gitea) has added a huge number of features

You still don't have basic features like Syntax Highlighting in Diffs. Yes yes, you are promising it soon in an Experimental Labs release, but it's been 11 years. It's laughable and who knows if that will tank performance aga

Will they ever allow chrome or other browsers to add PWA Apps to your Homescreen? That's what's missing for me.

It's just very nice layer of abstraction. I don't want every shop I buy from to know which Bank I use or my credit card number, because that's sensitive information. Also when my credit card number changes because my bank ran

I don't see anything about including other Justfiles or just generally other file. Might be nice to split up huge projects. The alternative Taskfile can do that https://taskfile.dev/usage/#including-other-taskfile

I agree. At my company we have a humans.txt that is not hosted in public and we only add first names to a list. So you kinda remember who was involved over the years. I think that is a nice touch and has no privacy issues.
