Having been outside of the frontend development world for innumerable years, I'm talking out of my backend here. But a cursory look gives me the instinct that Tailwind is kinda like Very Fancy Bootstrap. This blog post certainly makes

You don't use .gitignore? All our projects use dotenv for local credentials with a .gitignore that covers build, log, and any *.env file. Sounds like you need better tooling, tbh.

Yeah I went with Mint in the South Florida metro once, and it was painful. Once a download started it finished pretty quickly, but the amount of lag between clicking a link and the page starting to load was on the order of 10-15 seconds.

I mean, they're literally out here training models on Disney's copyrighted works. People seem to miss the point that the copyright ambiguity can work both ways and the courts are almost always on the side of corporate copyright h

Ye Wenjie is too emotional. Which is a bit of a flip side of the same coin: she is presented as lacking in logic and ruled by emotion, much like Cheng is throughout Death's End. Spoilers for Dark Forest and Death's End follow: Che

Or...you can see Dark Forest theory for what it actually is: PRC propaganda. It's fascist projection, applied on a universal scale. EDIT: To expound upon this, I'm not really trashing Dark Forest theory. I mean, it's possibl

Thanks. Keeping this in a pinned tab till I have a chance to watch it all (I scrubbed through it just now). I love getting to see how things work visually like this.

Oh I went through the wringer with memorizing the Krebs cycle. It's just every time you got to ATP Synthase it was literally just a tube, a few arrows, some comicbook-esque POW shapes, and "ADP" and "ATP" on both en

The physicality of the proton pumps (I can never remember which ATPase it is) was new for me. My intro chemistry and biology classes in college really didn't get too far past "proton goes through tube and an ATP appears!"

I didn’t even realize that widgets were so under-developed? I legit thought I’d look into writing one today as I suddenly had a use case. Apparently at the moment the only way to write one is Win32 flavored C++ and a bunch of COM Black Magi

I appreciate the mention and demonstration of Fourier Transforms. It makes a lot of previous sound codec discussions click a bit more now.

This article and these comment threads are such a US centric discussion. I’ll never forget the little landmine Ghost in the Shell planted in me when it represented the Americans as having used their cybernetic tech to give themselves perman

My problems with git commit signing mostly overlap with the critiques leveled against GPG. That said, git’s implementation of signed commits combined with Github/Gitlab’s validation framework of only respecting the current key on a use

I am a week late. Real Life Happened. :-) I probably phrased this really badly and applied it too broadly. Take the early days of Machine Learning. Everyone was working to crack it open and make money off of it. They still are, but now we’

The academic system is completely broken for Computer Science, and I don't really see a way to fix it. The economic realities of the field just make it too risky to allow an exceptionally gifted individual to remain out in the open pub

This is such a CERN thing to say, lol. "Bluh bluh the ILC and muon colliders aren't real! Neutrinos are fake!! Low energy particle physics is a lie!" Also this article is weird because phase 2 for the LHC is under way. Curre

I feel surprised that Miami or Fort Lauderdale or just South Florida in general didn't rate in any category. It's even more baffling to see Tampa, of all cities, used for the "Warmer Climes" category. I can't really

LaTeX is particularly suited to print (and by extension PDF). When you get into writing your own custom LaTeX macros/commands, yes it's difficult. However, the vast majority of users are simply consuming these sorts of custom comm

I think the only time I've seen OKRs work correctly is when they were super specific, singular, and very short term. The team I've seen use them generally picks something that aligns closely with something leadership wants to see
