These are more or less the three easiest open guitar chords for a beginner to learn, all major, so not very unusual IMO. The roots fall on a pentatonic scale which works well with basic rock music (see the referenced TNT song by AC/DC)

I've sped up Github pages hosted sites significantly by adding Cloudflare's CDN. Github has something but it isn't as good out of the box.

I don't trust an LLM to answer accurately on topics that I don't already know well. It's useful as a multiplier on things I do know, since I can correct mistakes and spot hallucinations, but if it's something I don&#x27

I've been wanting an Espresso machine recently but it seems like they're a lot more expensive than I hoped for a decent one. I was spoiled by the one my Italian American parents had that was very nice but probably cost them a pre

I have had it happen many times for large sites. Always assumed it was some overseas business competitor or extortionist but we've been able to get things back up quickly or prevent it from bringing the site down completely. There&#x2

I think if you showed a full example (including the 15 inputs and the outputs) it would be more clear what I might be able to expect.

Too expensive for something with no previews or samples. Interesting idea but I wish there was more to demonstrate the results before purchasing. If I was dedicated I think there are some free solutions for training a model on your own fac

I don't think I agree with this as a mark of "shame". Were these companies wrong to pull money out of SVB when they (correctly) thought the bank might be insolvent or headed for trouble? Are we celebrating those who left the

I got my foot in the door in tech through triplebyte after a couple months of job applications. I had a very small number of triplebyte company "matches", but I got a good review on my triplebyte front end interview and ended up

You don't have to accept, but they should at least actively try to bring you in if your account is a bug or important one. There are plenty of ways to get you in the conversational door like offering a better rate or to help protect th

I would expect them to say hey, now that you've got so much more capital in your account I'd like to set up a short meeting to learn more about your company. Then they meet with you, learn a bit about your business trajectory (fo

I occasionally do Duolingo for a little Japanese practice but I don't think it does a good job there either. The Japanese learning experience seemed far worse than the Spanish experience. Maybe it's because I knew more Japanese

Most of the online pieces about door close buttons I can find appear to be based solely on the 2016 NYTimes article and actually repeat the claim about the placebo affect more strongly than the NYTimes originally makes it. In other words,

My small company pays for GitLab and I don't see the bill directly, but I definitely have enjoyed working with GitLab. GitHub actions may be catching up but GitLab ci/cd tools have worked great for a while now for us.

Japanese on Duolingo honestly sucks in my opinion, even just compared to other Duolingo programs. Duolingo isn't optimized for Japanese and it shows some major pain points especially around kanji and Japanese grammar. There are a lot o

If you're driving users away with some major bugs you better try to fix them ASAP. But chasing "100%" is usually a bad business strategy IMO. When you have an absolutist policy like that you risk losing a lot of momentum ov
