Too reductionist. You must "sharpen the saw". This takes many forms including adequate learning / training for self improvement as well as investment in your tooling that will pay dividends on delivering faster or with higher

My kid had her first vomiting episode a month ago. This morning she ate a large Hershey kiss and went to wash her hands and came back proclaiming "my hands smell like throw up" and having just read about this a few months ago I pr

I have been repeating something since 2014: There is value in the porcelain. I have zero issue paying for RA software. Or any software that works well and doesnt charge me a subscription.

Toyota and entune are the worst offenders. Both of my 2018 toyotas do this with bluetooth audio and it drives me nuts. Even worse is if you pause playing and then adjust the audio up or down in the car it starts playing again. I absolutely

There is a world of difference between the quality and robustness of the rogue amoeba software and VB software on windows. I hate how much audio software on windows lacks.

Flowbite looks like what tailwind ui should have been. Designers I have worked with want to use flowbite so their figma comps are accurate and i think tailwind ui not having figma assets is a huge drawback.

Even though the discord said they refund with no issues I haven't asked for a refund but tailwind ui was not worth the money unless react is being used. Such a massive disappointment there isn't any JS with the "vanilla"

Congratulations, Mitchell! Many accomplishments and the ability to change an entire industry. One of a kind! Can't wait to see what else you get up to.

I do the same with Terraform sometimes. I appreciate that TF has loops and dynamic blocks, etc etc, but sometimes it's just a lot easier to look at a Jinja2 template and run a script to generate the TF.

Not a kustomize expert - but yes, you likely would have a folder for each thing you target. It wasn't bad once I got through the docs / examples. They just assume so much existing knowledge I didn't have.

Wear sunscreen. Get your moles checked. My dad died in July 1996 from a nasty mole on his back. He would ask me to scratch his back and I remember being 8 or 9 years old and having to scratch around it as it was near the seam of his tank to

I am tired of Armin's opinions and hot takes. I appreciate the work he has done but we are changing (maturing?) as a community. We have learned that there is a real cost to dynamic languages and there is not always a benefit to them. T
