Wow, that's about 1/5 of the price of my current DO test droplet. Think i am going to switch soon if there isn't a catch - i wonder why there is such a huge gap in prices? I wonder if you can go even lower as i've never

Interesting. Looks like more than half price. Are their interface / setup as easy as DO droplets? What's the catch? Are DO just expensive because they are market leaders?

Just closed a bunch of droplets. This is a deceptive price increase hidden behind a bunch of annoying PR. I guess it's understandable with everything going on but the market is beginning to get very hostile towards smaller startups wit

Vine was exploding when they shut it down, and some of the biggest influencers of today started on Vine. It's incomprehensible to me why anyone would shut down such an absolute jackpot, bizarre really!

Interesting, how long have you been using Vue3? I'm only 3 weeks in and still waiting for that video or diagram or tutorial that really inform me on why all of this extreme overhead is needed to perform simple tasks. Does anyone have a

Thanks for the input, intersting article! This might actually be a worthwhile first step in recovery as i run at quite a fast pace naturally and after covid i often hit a hr of 180bpm as a 30 something year old - maybe i should only walk jo

I suffer from Post Exertional Malaise but from before Covid. Though Covid has made it worse. Really a horrible predicament because the more you try, the more you get punished. Currently thinking about taking a break from running and lifting

This must be very common right now? I'm at the exact same point with Vue3. 10+ years of experience, created two fulls stacks sass'es as a Tech Lead but i feel so slow learning this new stuff. Just installed a starter kit and been

Not really, lots of people know they aren't the "smartest guy in the room", or "the most specialised" or whatever, but trust their people skills, family connections, visions or simply brute force their way up. The p

Please post some sources. I've heard about the severity of this problem multiple times before in the last couple of years so i'm open, but we need at least some data!

Is there really any radically isolated peoples stil on earth genetically? Any sources on this from non politcal authors? I know there was some interesting science being done by evolutionary geneticist Eske Willerslev about the aboriginals b

I totally agree that living in the past was horrible for many people and i'm extremely lucky to be living right now - where i'm personally sceptical is when heavy medication or surgery is the answer, especially for youngsters - th

Thank you for posting this. Those numbers scary?! Does anyone know if these have kept increasing? I wonder if some of the gender and queer issues in kids these days are actually because of this issue, same with other pathologies that someti

Interesting. Is there a video of how such an oldschool department store system works? I remember clerks looking proficient clicking away behind the desk in the 90's compared to the extremely slow use of touchscreens these days.

Adobe is a horrible company that scams customers and organisations that wants to use their software - can't wait until they sink. That said it's incredible to me how many huge organisations have ticket systems with age old and eas

I'm pretty sure they do all kinds of AB testing essentially scamming people in various ways - i always read very carefully and was trapped for very expensive year. Then suddenly they will have a non-scummy front page. I'm from Eur

I stopped using all Adobe products after they did this exact trick on me. When i actually tried cancelling normally their cancel page "didn't work" and i had to call and e-mail wasting hours and days. Absolute thrash company

That's a great one. I remember the 30, 60 or 90 day challenges people did on the internet of the 2000's. Especially in the creative fields; 30 days of html tricks, 60 days of posting a new illustration or 90 days of blogging about

That's a great realisation that especially came to me in my thirties through various crisis happening to people around me and myself. Being there when other people have real challenges makes you realise how small status anxiety really

It would be highly interesting to see a "tree of suppliers" for a single product - including how many people each part relied on, history etc. I would imagine a smartphone for example having an unimaginably large diagram.

I remember this being an annoyance for a long time. BBC horizon documentaries pretty much took the prize when it came to endless stock video with ambient music and aimless "poetic" quotes from various eccentric scientists talking

Interesting. Personally i think i also think it has to do with the nature of those services, it's just too simple in essence, the overhead gets obvious. People just revert to a simple piece of paper, a txt file, as i did until i for so

But don't you use some physical system then? Setting a post-it, putting bills in a stack in sight, opening a tab and not closing it etc. to alert you of something? I mean i'm impressed if you can do everything stream-of-consciousn

I know, we agree i think your entire article including the first links just sparked the same feelings as they did in you. Good job honestly!

Agree with the article - the take presented in the first articles are a joke right? They remind of the mind numbingly arrogant articles about UHNWI's that didn't have smartphones from a while back - well duh, they didn't beca
