does anyone know how they create the maps for this story? I've wanted to do a similar sort of map for a personal project and don't know how they do it. Especially the feature where you can click.

California has multiple times brought up splitting out into multiple states, its made it as a prop a few times too. I think most people want it to happen, its just tough to figure out what the best split would be

I feel most people still don't realize that China is facing a demographic crisis. If their demographics matched the United States sure, but its unlikely china will be leading many of these future technological situations. Don't ta

Rails is a great framework, always has been. Rails performance is totally fine for most normal applications.

There maybe an inkling of truth for mass consumer markets where incumbents set up regulatory capture but it couldn't be more untrue for hard-tech companies or companies that work in dangerous domains where human safety is a concern.

The Firefox feature set is limited compared to other browsers and Mozillas business model is literally hush money payments to keep google out of anti-trust litigation. While I hear you that they are a lesser evil, its part of a greater syst

Lazy web reminder try Brave or Arc. Ladybird is also looking promising

These days I'm feeling like GenAi is basically an accuracy rate of 95% maybe 96%. Great at boilerplate, great at stuff you want an intern to do or maybe to outsource... but it really struggles with the valuable stuff. The errors are al

Congrats on the release. I'm interested to see how the project goes.

I'm not a php guy, or a MVC guy, or really anything in their ecosystem... but I will say Taylor Otwell and his team do an amazing job at their little slice of the developer world. Again, not my cup of tea but we need to give credit whe

I think this is definitely a cool system so not meaning to knock it, but I used to hyper-optimize all parts of my life and it was exhausting. So one day I just stopped. I started focusing on just being present, prioritizing, and trying to r

Its just a convention. You just get used to it. Whether we like it or not, written language is heading that way. Readers don't generally read letters in words anyway, they read the whole word after a certain literacy level has been ach

Language evolves. Capitalization is an artifact of a period where capitalizing the first letter made a lot of sense for the medium (parchment/paper). Modern culture is abandoning it for speed efficiency on keyboards or digital keyboard

Code is the easy part of the job. Build a strong network of people you trust. Read the error codes and documentation fully (and make sure to understand them). Treat your continuing education like you are a doctor... a lot of work up front

Just out of curiosity, what web apps are effected? I tried to find the "other web apps" and can't find anything (quick scan of the article)

I went looking and you are correct. Super interesting. It appears there's some auto mod feature or something?

The reality is that people LOVE reading articles like this. They love sharing articles like this. Anthony Burgess wrote a wonderful preface to a clockwork orange which I consider inline with this concept in which he wrote: "Unfortunat

I've oddly had some pieces I've written (without any expectation on my part) get read by a lot of people. Even shockingly had people reach out to me over it and say that its impacted them. So I'm not sure if I agree with this

dunno, I've seen some of the McKinsey, Deloitte, PwC, and Bane work... I'm skeptical anyone senior ever looks an anything. McKinsey specifically feels like the Jim Cramer of consulting with every blog post they write. Maybe your e
