StopTheMadness is a godsend (but I recommend it only to technical users). The developer is also very responsive. Recommended.

Reminds me of the old "sliding doors" technique. You young guns have no idea how good you have it with your fandangled "border-radius". We had to work hard for our rounded corners back in the day. https://al

According to their blog, the main developer used to work for Webflow. They wanted to start fresh because of some technical debt that Webflow (apparently) has.

My comment pointed out that they outright refuse to state which ones fall into which category. That is a 100% factual statement and highly relevant to the discussion. If you'd like to provide a rebuttal to that, be my guest. But childi

Really? Where can I learn about which cryptocurrencies constitute securities and which don't? Is there a list?

That may be the case, but refusing to state which ones and why is not "clarity". Plain and simple. Like I said, I don't care what happens - but as an outside observer - it's ridiculous.

SEC: "The vast majority of digital tokens are securities!" Anyone: "Okay then, is [insert ANY crypto here other than BTC] a security?" SEC: "We decline to answer, or give a hint, but the vast majority of digital tok

Does the ChatGPT plugin for PHPStorm actually analyze your existing code? As-in... can you ask it to code something using your pre-existing utility functions, classes, and so on?

Responsiveness, start up time and resource usage absolutely affect the user experience.

I'll have to agree with you here. There's no way you can compete with AWS on price per compute cycle. Just compete on the experience and simplicity. That's what's compelling about this.

And yet, the SEC approved the Coinbase Nasdaq listing. I'll never understand how this state of affairs with regulators is allowed to happen.

I'm not the person you asked but I love it. It's actually solved my tab hoarding problem and made my life so much simpler. Caveat: I'm an ADHD sufferer so my experience may not be typical.

I did a quick experiment. The results are interesting. The SVG file is 135k. The PNG inside it is 48kb when converted to binary. The JPG is 53kb, for a combined total of 101kb. With Brotli compression, the SVG comes over the wire in 94kb. S

Fintable offers the service but it only interfaces with Airtable. You can easily download a csv from there, or use the Airtable API. It's not for those who don't want their data in the cloud, but I've found the service to be

We can certainly agree on that. I think the problem is that he's now motivated by ego above all else. Elon is... different.

It makes sense if he only cares about certain types of speech. Given he censors more overseas than previous Twitter leadership did (without getting banned) - it's really hard to argue he is motivated by principles rather than pol

It's certainly not consistent with being a "free speech absolutist", which was the descriptor he gave himself.

I enjoyed the discussion. If you gave some semblance of acknowledgment that the opinion piece wasn't so great, and those same sentiments could be expressed in a more constructive manner we could have moved on. No worries, though. Cheer

Just take the "L" :-). You're not going to convince me that it was a worthwhile source, or that the motivations of a speaker don't deserve consideration. Thats plainly absurd. Especially when there's money AND (re

I agree that bias is unavoidable. But what we're talking about here is an organization who's entire purpose for existing is to spread conservative views. Furthermore, they blatantly misrepresented the very question asked in the

Okay, but how would Apple know how many developers are working behind the scenes without developer accounts? They've given a precise number, not an estimate.
