Just out of curiosity, what are some of those good reasons? It's clear enough that they can use and consume markdown, but is the suggestion here that they've seen more markdown than xml? I'd have guessed possibly naively tha

Your confidence that there is an obviously optimal way to model something reads as either brilliance or hubris and brilliance is a lot rarer. Typically there are subtle trade-offs and compromises which only prove themselves to be useful&#x2

I haven't touched Next, but the discussions and issues of some things I do use seem littered with people thinking they're on the client when they're on the server and vice versa. Someone upthread said there were some common A

I can't speak to whether or not it's true, but I heard the response to this question being that this process is quite precise, and functions specifically to meet the brain's glucose needs and nothing more.

Not OP but just checked the logs for one that I'm running. As a first approximation I grepped for PATCH in the web server logs and it seems to service about 30 of those per second on a $40/month vps. I haven't load tested it

For a pay rise sure. A cut to a 5 day work week though could just mean more people employed overall at minimal extra expense. If you have a monopoly that is demand constrained that might make sense? If people buy your cars with credit it mi

Ha, sounds like it was indeed spin. Interesting what sticks, because I've read it twice recently, once even in a fairly left-leaning setting.

I remember reading that Henry Ford introduced the 5 day work week at Ford as a way of growing the middle class such that more people could afford model Ts. Is that just spin? I imagine there was some pressure from labour movements as well,

Am I crazy for almost exclusively just using type and sum types and no generics or interfaces and somehow being able to express everything I need to express? Kind of wondering what I'm missing now.

I've had Google photos eat ~12 months worth of pictures, I don't really trust anyone to keep my data safe. Logseq has been fine for me over several years, but it also makes it extremely easy to auto-commit to git.
