Your opinion might be unpopular but it shouldn't be. I'm quite well off, have friends, an overall good life, but at the same time was a miserable sack of shit. Until I talked to a therapist. Initially we spoke every week, now I ta

I'm going to argue yours is not better. I preferred the AWS example, which was no doubt cherry picked, over all of your voices. Especially during the transition between sentences there is an audible glitch in the audio, whereas AWS tra

Think of GitHub copilot as StackOverflow on steroids -- a quick way to write code when you're not sure how to achieve what you're trying to do. After all, "How to parse a CSV file in Python" is longer than "csv.read

You're 100% right. A few years back you could sign up for business accounts which were seperate from your personal identity, but 2 or 3 years back this practice was cancelled and you had to start linking your business account to your p

I've done and created a second account, which was reduced to a limited account the minute I linked my secondary phone number. Probably used that number on my old account already, so they were quick to strike it down. I could not link a

I'm in South-East Asia/Japan and Black Friday/Cyber Monday is definitely a thing here, but Shopify isn't as prevelant here. All major eComm players are running BFCM campaigns.

Great post, very fun project. A while back I wrote a blogpost[1] about using PNG chunk functionality to "hide" a arbitrary data in PNGs without it affecting the way a PNG is displayed. I'd love to see this being used together

And the downscaling in my experience takes too long. Sometimes it feels it's done this way on purpose to rake in a few extra hours of compute pennies. It starts adding up... imagine if you have a million customers and you can suddenly

It sounds to me like you installed spyware on your coworkers computer. What kind of company were you working at where people see this as a joke instead of a security breach? And let's not forget the trust coworkers have in you not to f
