   I wonder if it’s a nerd thing. “Linux is better than Windows” “Android is better than iOS” “Python is better than PHP” “Vim is better than everything else”

   VSCode and the whole open source organization around it is super cool in my opinion. TypeScript and C# are great tools too.

   Almost 10 years ago, when I just started to work, I had to do a repetitive task. Something in IIS about 30-50 subdomain bindings. I told to myself “I’m not going to do that manually, such a waste of time, let’s write a script!”. 5 hours lat

    I think most people don’t give a fuck and will continue using GitHub.

    Yes same here. I’m really surprised by all the Microsoft hate as if we were still in the 80-90’s. MS is one of the biggest open source contributors nowadays. It's also really weird how people idealize GitHub. Did they forget GitHub was

    My company uses GitLab because it's less expensive than GitHub.

    GitHub was not profitable, obviously you change the CEO.

    Wow this is great. Right now I'm using a homemade <ImgWithPlaceholder src={src} /> that displays a generic gray PNG on 404 or src null. I'll definitely try your lib as a replacement. I'm excited about the out-of-th
