This was the first game I ever played on a PC, and it will always have a place in my heart. I first played it on an 8086 PC-compatible machine with an amber monochrome CRT monitor (the kind usually paired with MDA or Hercules-style graphics

I have read the article, but at some point, the statement "GenAI: Capitalism in Perfection" did not make sense to me, please don't bash me. I disagree with most of the author's points. I do not understand what the proble

The ChatGPT screenshot part is mind-blowing.

Man, I would never want to be in your shoes that day. What a pain.

I don't get why people downvote this.

I had a similar experience with another company. At one point during the interview, the HR department asked me to do a really stupid exercise, despite the fact that I am an engineer with over 20 years of experience. I wrote an email saying

Cultural fit is important. You don't want to work with people who are not morally aligned with you or the company. A rotten apple can ruin the entire basket, but the problem with these cultural fit interviews is that the people who run

I wonder how hard would be spend maybe 50% of that budget and build a farm of GPUs to run the models locally. I guess it would be a lot of work, but it would be interesting to see how it compares in terms of performance and cost.

The song "Ten Ton Hammer" from Machine Head is not right: it's showing another song. Besides that, fun experience!

Well, the old-school way was something like this: h1.font.size = 24pt 100%. Tailwind has its own syntax, so you need to learn it first, which adds extra cognitive load. For things like * { color: } in Tailwind, you have multiple options: te

The only problem with Tailwind is its syntax. It is anti-CSS. It is confusing and takes time to get used to. Heck, people even wrote cheat sheets. That makes adoption wrong, because people install it just because everyone else uses it or be

I am doing these things to avoid using all tokens and hitting rate limits in a day: - I plan everything in ChatGPT. I provide project trees and create an execution plan for Claude Code, Codex, or Copilot agents. - I clearly say I do not wan

All projects done with Typescript, and the same tooling. The creativity of the LLM is quite biased. I would expect more reasoning and choosing other languages, platforms, libraries, etc.

If the memory shortage is real and sustained, I wonder whether we’ll see a secondary effect in the resale market.

I liked Val Kilmer in most films, but specially on Heat (1995). I think it was his best acting ever.

The funny thing about Calibre, which I've been using since the beginning, is that the app always has updates—I think they release one almost every day.

We don't develop without components anymore. You can have a nice component with all the cases, type-safe, and apply few utility classes to produce more maintainable code.

It's a bias to think the problem is people not knowing how to architect a good CSS solution. The reality is projects are maintained by multiple people over the course of its life. OOCSS only brings technical debt and constraints, and n

Can someone give me a reason why paying an engineer a yearly salary would ensure that they contribute a truly valuable piece of software that the market will use? Why should money be given based on years of experience? Is experience really

Maybe it's just nostalgia, but I felt an amazing sense of happiness with the icons in Windows 3.1 and macOS 8. I loved them all! I'd say that everything up to Windows 95 and macOS 9.2 was great. But then, with macOS X and later ve

I loved—and still love—this logo. Maybe it's because we have a gazillion startups and companies now, so every single logo looks the same to me. These old logos have spirit and personality.

I complete disagree with this statement that lacks evidence and it just want to duplicate functionality: "At first blush a utility class system might seem like a boon to a design system, but when applied to the markup we quickly see th
