All I can see is more lock in and less interoperability with anything else. Seems like a liability to be honest

I consult with ecommerce companies more or less for a living and just wanted to say that I’ve never once seen Next used in a way that was an improvement in that context. Maybe it’s just a function of as a consultant people don’t tend to cal

If/when this happens for real, I promise you they aren’t going to publish it in an academic paper. This would be the textbook definition of extremely classified state secret.

It’s about to turn up inside Android running in a VM [1] but it was less clear exactly for what purpose. My theory is that this is essentially a long term project to bring the core of Chrome OS and Android to rely on Fuschia for its core w

Also this mysterious new Fuchsia OS from Google is also shooting for full Linux compatibility and is about to show up in Android, I think this is a much more realistic path of the next generation of operating systems that have a real chance

I don’t say this with any snark at all, there’s a lot of people with a lot of different use cases and I think Tailwind is actually a great fit for anyone who doesn’t know CSS. I’m a bit less enthusiastic about people who consider themselves

I know people get incredibly upset whenever this gets mentioned because suddenly they DO want it again but that was a big part of what “web components” were. When you need that level of isolation you can get it for free without any extra wo

by mdhb 2y ago
I really wouldn’t say Tailwind does anything that resembles living and breathing CSS. Their entire value proposition is making shit copy and pastable by ignoring the “C” in CSS and then doing further things to kind of reduce how much you ne

Despite all of the rumors of its demise its continued to have a large number of daily commits to it the entire year so far. It’s clearly not “dead” I think medium to long term it still becomes the uber unified cross device operating system

I don’t actually read it this way for what it’s worth. I agree with you that they are unifying in someways for sure but I don’t read it as the death of their desktop OS for even a moment.

Just out of curiosity is this a Flutter app and if so how did you find the experience of using it to develop a cross platform app?

Just as a quick side note this is actually one of the things I’ve come to appreciate most about some of the work you and the others have done with Dart where it very clearly has gotten much more powerful and has had to deal with some major

Even when you enable “developer mode” which is essentially Debian in a VM the level of care that went into making sure that no matter what happens there you will never suffer a full system compromise is truly impressive. To give you a sense

I feel there’s a bit of a disconnect here between Google’s Ads division who are looking to basically do the bare minimum to avoid getting repeatedly spanked primarily by the EU but also now with talk of a breakup in the US and most other pa

The examples he gives were explicitly called out as mistakes you wouldn’t normally make as a beginner because they are so esoteric and I don’t disagree with him at all on that one.

That’s cool and all but don’t lowball people. This was the first thing Cloudflare has done in years that I didn’t associate with something shitty until I saw this. Just for once do the right thing rather than what you think you can get away
