You can knowledge it's there, and just not read it. There's lots of links on the internet that I don't click. I'm sure there are people who genuinely need to receive information that's only on that site, but persona

That's because at the end of the day: - accessibility is just usability. all it is is making sure your product is as usable by as many people as possible. - it's a myth that "people with disabilities" are some other th

Of all the problems with YAML, how is comments a footgun?

Github Actions is actually so incredibly scary to have on public repo. It's full of so many footguns that's far from obvious. It's a shame Github is buried under their current server issues, because it would be great to get i

The instructive part about the comparison is that believing "AI is a bubble" doesn't mean saying that AI is worthless. After all, after the dot-com bubble burst the internet still existed and continued to transform the whol

The takeaway is that everyone makes security hard. Everyone does this anti-pattern of having these other domains that defeat all their own security recommendations. GitHub for ages had something like githubnext.com where they would make y
