Your request could be fulfilled by multiple services, some of which may have errors. Building on this are result types, where you can return a union with the intended type and something like AccessDenied for specific fields a user does have

On the face of it yes, but the bigger point I was trying to make is that some of us have challenges with remembering things and external prompts/interruptions (alarms, timers, notifications) are in that case all the same thing. If I’m

It hasn’t been a document browser for at least 2 decades though. The web and browsers like many languages, are not something any one person or group can authoritatively prescribe. The W3C follows the browsers, not the other way around.

I use notifications, and alarms, and timers all the time. It’s an accessibility (as in a11y) thing. Notifications are a tool that some of us depend on, and some of us will never need. Like many people with ADHD I forgot stuff. Important thi

Despite the attitude of some of the other comments, the code and stack are less important than you’d think. If you can create an MVP with no-code tool, yeah it might be janky but it might also let you prove out your idea with paying custome

Your comment feels like it’s well intentioned, but questioning if ADHD exists (it does) perpetuates a myth that has harmful impacts on people. ADHD in my opinion is one of the worst named disorders. It’s name and the previous lack of access

This problem seems endemic to big tech platforms, particularly when money is involved. I remember hearing similar stories about PayPal a decade ago (still do for what it’s worth). While I can understand the desire to not interact with a use

This was my thought too. A couple bad devices sucks, but all of them. Continually having issues. Based on your story, I’d be inclined not to fault the hardware yet, but try and measure your environment. Do you have good clean power? Can you

I’m a big fan of the MT3 profile, it really nails that kind of retro vibe. I find them really comfortable, but like everything about keyboards that’s personal preference. They’re worth a shot if you think you’ll like them.

From memory it’s because it’s not evaluated in one go. By using functions you can evaluate parts of the dom, which crucially means you can reevaluate parts of the dom. Those functions also enable changing their output based on inputs, enabl

You can combine multiple queries into one request in such a way that transport layer caching just isn’t effective. If you’re making a content and read heavy website, you can run GraphQL over GET, and cache traditionally. The spec says nothi

Atom was just to slow and clunky. The idea was great — see VSCode. But at the time, while being able to hack your own editor was nice, the performance issues and lag was the reason I never used it long term. And pretty much the only reason

Rama Works Thermal. I love it. I got the original, I think there’s second version. It’s one of those small run mechanical keyboards that you’ve gotta find out about at the right time to get in on the preorder. What’s good? So it’s heavy. Ab

I agree, and that's very much why I remain interested to see what comes of it. If it's going to move forward it has to shake the sleazy image with all the scams, pump and dumps, Ponzi-schemes and market manipulation.
