Yep. I do follow Reddit via daily emails but rarely go there and comment or post.

I never really got involved with Twitter. I made an account and followed a few that I thought might be interesting but it just didn't really engage or entice me enough to make it a daily habit. I'm not at all fannish though and I

I really cannot say. I don't have enough users to stress the server, and my server is running on a $20 per month Digital Ocean VPS. CouchDB is designed to process huge numbers of files. PouchDB makes it very easy to work with CouchDB.

I agree with that. I've been struggling with that on a web app I've been working on. Part of the problem is a new twist on the old problem. I don't have to develop for Mac and Windows and Linux, I have to develop for Desktop

I'll probably get down voted for pointing this out but neither Hunter or Joe Biden have denied those files are legit. And Biden's lawyer hasn't denied he called and tried to get the files back. None of the reports I've s

They emit nuclear waste and we still have no good way to deal with that. Geological disposal most certainly has long term effects and we really don't even know what those will be.

Yeah, but you won't have lost near as much money if they do.

It's a notable and interesting look back in time. That's when I was just getting started with opensource software.

The latest version of my invoicing app lets the user install CouchDB on their desktop PC and they can choose to use their local CouchDB only. This "local-first" approach runs offline only and provides close to native app performan

We have to learn to compartmentalize political news and keep it separated from our personal life. And we have to be honest with ourselves about our personal life. For many of us, and it's probably fair to say most of us here on HN, lif

I don't watch the news either but I do scan headlines here and on AP and/or Reuters every day and follow up on what interests me. I can't say "it contains no actionable information that changes my decisions". For ex

I just got an Argon ONE case for my Pi 4 8GB. It's pretty sweet. It has a 3 speed fan that comes on when it start getting hot. It doesn't run at all when it's idle and even when it is running it's barely noticable. The c

I've focused on learning on a want/need to know basis. This has allowed me to make things I want or get paid to make, but I think you nailed the "essential skill" spot on.

There seems to be some doubt about rather water is added to the meat we purchase from fast food providers and in the grocery stores here. Truth is this has been going on for a very long time and for the most part it says this right on the p

It's been a very long time since I looked into it, but I do recall a court case that ruled delivering an invoice by email was considered the same as using the USPS. The software just increments a counter when the invoice is opened and

I haven't seen or heard anything about them improving the quality of their meats. But, if you think they're good I have very good reason to believe you don't know what quality meat is. I have raised and butchered cows, pigs,

If you read the ingredients you'll see they add water to those meats. And not a little, they add a lot. There is a huge difference between the water added and real meats.

I think the notion that "one offs" increase cost is really not nearly as big of an added cost as the article makes it out to be. I've worked on building homes and monitored the process quite a few times and while it might loo

I haven't eaten a Subway sandwich in a few decades. I don't know what all their "smeat" is made with (probably mostly water by weight) but I know it didn't provide any real fuel for work. That stuff is about as fake

The app does tell the user their document was successfully delivered or not as well. It also counts the number of times an invoice has been opened. I could also track the date and time of that but I don't.

It wasn't a huge problem for the app's users, but it came up enough to make it worth implementing the feature.

I struggled a bit with the ethics of this. My own experience with a client denying he received an invoice I mailed with the USPS certainly swayed my decision to implement it. It wasn't until I mailed the invoice with their "Certif

I use this on my invoicing app. I implemented it after years of the app's users telling me that some of their customers/clients would consistently deny getting their invoices. This required me to sift through my email server logs
