Early OKCupid was amazing, their matching algorithm was spot on. I had a similar experience, and matched with my wife there after only a handful of other dates. The craziest part- she had made a profile, and we’d matched, but she wasn’t rea

js runs everywhere and is the most popular language. The package managers are maturing, as are the rest of the tooling. C# didn’t have nuget at first, Python didn’t have Pip, etc. these tools evolve as part of the ecosystem over time. Nuget

I didn’t really find it clickbait. It’s not unusual for a complex react app to have 600+ mb in dependencies, and at work I have at least 50 repositories checked out at once. 50gb may be a bit of a stretch for most users but I imagine multi-

How much of this is implemented right now? Looks like it’s just a pitch page to get email signups. Some features, like cross platform + fast performance, or offline mode + real time collaboration, are quite complex. It’s easy to say these t

What’s AvE? You left off the link. Sounds interesting, want to watch the Dyson teardown!

Reminds me of the OpenPandora, which I still have a first batch of! It was really cool to have at the time but I didn’t end up using it all that much.

Is your argument that renewables aren’t usable for liquid fuels in ocean shipping, therefore we can’t use purely renewable energy sources? Because solar panels (or wind turbines, or geothermal, or hydro, etc.) can generate electricity to us

I think this is the motivation behind requiring an npm: prefix. It is a way to virtue signal for devs who buy into the deno goals to push for migrating to non-“legacy” packages. If you see an npm: prefix in a deps.ts file you can consider i

You can run esbuild during development for quick builds and eslint for ide typescript enforcement, and then use tsc plus eslint during a production build to enforce type checking.

Demo is awesome, and the npm compatibility is a game changer. Isn’t this the 3rd http server rewrite in less than a year though? They didn’t mention it being backwards compatible. I guess they needed to change the underlying server to suppo

Banks can get hacked, but are insured and have ways to prosecute fraud and reverse the transactions. Crypto can be stolen anonymously and irreversibly from you.

React and react-dom are < 100kb compressed, which is pretty much how big jquery is. Preact is even smaller. Which framework are you talking about that’s huge and batteries-included? if you want to drop react in a script tag and write JS

Seeking anywhere in a video on YouTube is instantaneous for me. 1 gig symmetrical fiber in Portland, OR. You should look into network tools and see what’s causing the slowdown, because I doubt it’s on YouTube’s side.

Relative humidity rises for the same volume of water/air as temperature decreases. The dryness of an A/C is because of the condensation accumulating from the air passed across the evaporator, it is dehumidifying at the same time i

Roasting generates a lot of smoke, but if you have a top mounted range vent that exhausts outside, you could probably get away with doing it inside. We have a pop up range hood in an island range and ended up just roasting outside. If you u

Have you been to Mr. Green Beans in Portland? I’ve gotten beans there before, but just in early stages of roasting my own beans with a repurposed air popper. It’s definitely a hassle to use, have been looking into a standalone roaster.

It’s not for the receiver to keep them from knowing you read it, it’s to build a queue of messages you want to reply to (anything unread will be easily marked in the UI for later revisiting next time you get a text or open the app). In this

Not all values are known to you or terraform until after the apply. For example, on AWS, publishing a new version of lambda might have the ARN as known after apply since it includes the version # as part of the string. Or something like the

You’re correct in that it’s not deterministic or idempotent if the APIs are not, but this reads as very anti-terraform. The purpose is not to be easier than curl, but to express your infrastructure in code so you can check it into a project

One potential option is using CloudFlare email routing. You can use it with a regular public provider (gmail for example). CloudFlare will handle the MX side of things for your custom domain and route your emails to the public provider with

This sounds like a nightmare, mostly because the implication is that refreshing my inbox would amount to pulling emails from thousands of 3rd party servers, any one or more of which may be down at any given time.

Sounds like you might’ve gotten a counterfeit. This can happen even if you buy from Amazon, because they commingle 3rd party goods and their own. I ordered some incense samplers, and some of them were clearly fake. Who would fake something

I have a tp-link Omaha setup in my new house. I run the management interface on the LAN in docker on an old Linux box (runs pihole too). Works really well so far! I have the wifi 6 APs, a PoE switch, and a router. I have 1gig symmetrical fi

The problem with this is that your suggestions are based on past viewing history, which isn’t always related to future needs. Examples: on one youtube account we primarily watch different types of media on, we watched a Labrinth music vide

They also give you a 14 day trial for YT TV, but a 30 day trial for the 4K. They’re obviously hoping if you like YT TV and keep it after the 14 days that you won’t realize halfway through the next month that you’re also charged $20 more for

We had Time Warner send us to collections which then reported my wife to the bureaus, alleging that we had never returned our cable modem (this was just for $60, and it was 5+ years ago!!). First of all, I’m incredibly sure that we did. We

This happened to my wife and I. We both have advanced degrees and write software for a living. The fact that it had these cancellation terms was not at all obvious to either of us, and only realized it when she went to cancel. It’s one of t

It seems unrealistic long term for any company to maintain one native app and an electron app across other platforms. Spotify did this for a while, but they eventually forced everyone onto the electron app. Something to keep in mind.

With Prius batteries, there’s a whole refurb scene where people buy the whole pack, crack it open, find the underperforming cells, and replace those. And that’s for a very small battery. So I would guess the same will be done for EV packs,
