Agree about Voxtral being the only model — local or cloud — that handles multilingual conversation really well. I‘m not sure what they do differently, but mixed-language sentences and industry terms don‘t seem to faze it where other model b

Sounds like you might be better off freelancing. With a bit of networking and/or marketing you‘ll find individual clients willing to pay for your perspective on their projects. It‘s a different thing with outright hiring — as a manager

Agreed, it‘s great microsite to showcase the font. Another one that I stumbled upon lately is MD IO - a great font and a great minisite as well: https://io.mass-driver.com

What a great font! Very matter-of-fact, but with some stylistic choices that give it just enough character to be interesting. The x-height in the original version is too large for setting body copy, but the variable font comes with an axis

Yeah, the audiobook version really is quite special. It’s read by Peter Vilnai, if I remember correctly. One of the few audiobooks I was able to completely be absorbed by while listening.

The water is fine, but the sink usually isn‘t. The sinks are just as contaminated with bacteria as the toilets themselves —- sinks in really busy restrooms are constantly damp and allow bacteria to grow more than one would expect.

I would argue you no longer need a framework when using CSS grid. Creating template areas once per breakpoint and assigning them once per container really is all there‘s to it. Sure, you can build another abstraction on top of that, but I d

Aren‘t you losing information in the parts that aren‘t perfectly straight? Yes, you can stretch those to recreate the original layout, but that would come at the cost of resolution in the interpolated sections of the page. Granted, not a pr

Right, no public pricing usually means rates far above what personal or low-budget projects can afford. Not sure how much of the design is protected and how much inspiration one can take for a non-commercial DIY project like the one present

There‘s a somewhat similar commercial scanner [1] [2], with a V-design as well but inverted to scan from the top. Much gentler on the books as it‘s the scanner that moves, not the books themselves. Super happy to see someone develop an open

I'm currently converting a suite of E2E tests from Cypress to Playwright. In hindsight, I'm surprised by how much more idiomatic the Cypress code was in comparison. The concepts just make sense, whereas Playwright is very unintuit

I like what this is trying to accomplish, however I'm somewhat confused about the immediate goal here. Is this for learning about services? Is this about assembling a tech stack? And how does the example site fit in that's mention
