Event ticketing has to be one of the most appropriate use cases for blockchains that hasn't been realized. You still need a trustworthy central entity (equivalent to Ticketmaster) issuing the tokens though.

I was thinking the same thing, but having travelled with my AeroPress for almost 7 years now I have to agree it's an amazing device.

I had an XPS laptop from 2008 which constantly overheated. I ended up having to remove the bottom of the case and put it on a stand to make it usable. One day a bolt of lightning struck the house across the street and it died instantly. Use

Breville also does some great toasters and juicers. Fun fact: the company started out making radios in 1932. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breville

I deeply miss my iPhone 5. Small, light, pleasingly minimal. I'm so glad they released the new mini models.

What are the other aspects of their bathroom design that are notable? (Never been but it's top of my wishlist)

I was also surprised that most American showers only have a temperature control and not pressure, and the toilets waste several litres of water every flush.

This is why I desperately hope that manufacturers don't follow Tesla's example of putting everything in a digital UI. It makes sense when you have a limited amount of space in which to support infinite uses (e.g. a smartphone) but

They did this for the new iMac, albeit only the ethernet port. It's the one that makes the most sense and doesn't appear to result in a larger brick, which I imagine would be considered a requirement by Apple. I believe there&#x27

Seconded. I've been nomading for much of the past 6 years and having an AeroPress + Hario hand grinder means I can always make good coffee. It's compact, easy to clean, and as long as you're using good beans, somewhat difficu

What is the missing mechanic here exactly? Theme implementation of RTL? Dashboard? Or something else...

Isn't this what the 'yellow vest' protests were (initially) about?

What's the scenario there? They lengthen the headway on the whole line until they catch you or they actually cancel some trains? Why? I'm curious what the operational response is from their side.

Frank is right, of course. Staying up to date with the tooling, best practices, and user expectations of the web requires an unreasonable amount of attention if making websites is only a small part of your service offering. One reason I pre

Isn't AWS doing the same with Lambda?

+1 for this. Netlify has it and I have used it many times to redeploy a site after changing some config settings (e.g. env vars, build commands). Having git push as the only deployment trigger is a pain in these scenarios.

Displaying this page is optional and only used by sites that have suspicious traffic they want to prevent, no?

The majority of streets in American cities are massive. Single lane streets are generally slower traffic so separated cycle lanes aren't necessary...just some markings to remind drivers that cyclists might use this part of the road. Pa

Very true. Casey is an odd-looking dude but damn can he churn out masterfully edited and interesting videos.

You don't need to use them, but since they are valid ways of positioning things in CSS, Tailwind has utilities for them. They're as 'dangerous' as they are in handwritten CSS. You can get by with only using flexbox and a

This is exactly what every "why I don't like tailwind" piece misses, because most of the people writing them haven't actually used it for more than a week (if that).

In my experience it's exactly the opposite. For small projects you don't have to create any boilerplate styles, resets, and the like...you just start writing code. A lot of frontend frameworks that are popular these days have CLI

I'm always heavily skeptical of anyone who has a take like this without actually trying it properly. It's basically: "I am fortunate to have barely scratched the surface of the tool, missed important details of how it works,

Dev mode on any kind of frontend framework sacrifices bundle size for developer productivity. I've never worked on a Tailwind project that ended up with a CSS file larger than 11kb in production for a whole website, and that's wha

Yes, you absolutely still need to know how CSS works. You're still using the box model, you're still using floats and flexbox and negative margins to position things, and the most important aspects of cascading still work. Tailwin

For larger shops, the pricing for SaaS platforms like Shopify and friends is less than 0.5% of GMV. If that's too much, the business has bigger problems that certainly won't be solved by self-hosting or maintaining their own homeg

Now that makes a lot of sense. Unlike side thrusters, you'd be able to use all engines to provide forward movement for max speed while also using the same engines for low speed maneuvering.

Is the scale of the engine for marine applications very different to aviation? Ferries usually have huge hulking diesels so I'm curious what the equivalent electric powertrain is like. I'm also assuming that a scaled down version

This does seem like the obvious outcome. We just witnessed the self-initiated shutdown of Voat, which was different in concept but similar in intention. Maybe they saw the writing on the wall?
