Instead of Draw.io or Figma (or Mermaid or any other option), I sketch around with Excalidraw and create diagrams with Miro. Miro took the world by the storm when corona hit and I am not super fond of the way people use it for everything fr

I don't really care to comment about the practice itself, but the "Polyfills that don’t polyfill" section is missing the point: the function is called directly instead of patching the global object so that the global object i

It's awesome how you can stumble upon sites that are so funny or interesting (in multiple ways) that you just want to share them immediately forward. Everyone says it but it's true: something just got lost in translation when soci

”They’d rather have” has nothing to do with though. They do it because they can and want to. Obviously those cooking burgers or working in retail would deserve to earn more but if even ”new”, ”revolutionary” companies won’t do it, there’s r

Those who say that this is better than alternative x or y are missing the point. They could pay a premium for any label worker anywhere, whether it was $30 bucks per hour in America or $15 in Kenya, but they won't because the pursuit f

People spent years and years learning how to get the best answers with least possible efforts and search engines evolved with it. Seems pretty insane to me that we have now devolved into asking insanely specific and obtuse questions to rece

I'd say it is, though interacting with other players do make the game better. You can do the main storyline together with friends, but only the party leader can complete the missions - so if playing with group of friends you need to re

I agree on the "should never been released in that state" part, but currently Fallout 76 is by far the best Fallout game Bethesda has made. The newer campaigns are fun and engaging, well written even and there's lots to do. B

I have been wanting something like this for years, usually ending up with running the configs through some sketchy location block testers/validators and hacking together simplified setups so I can figure out why or how some nginx confi

As someone who does a lot of slides, mainly on Keynote and sometimes on PowerPoint, Pitch seems to be a similar kind of large, incremental upgrade when we moved from Sketch to Figma. For example something as rudimentary as collaboration jus

Basically it's just the same as whipping out a simple text editor in hurry; if I need to modify multiple files, I just do multiple commits (do a change -> commit -> jump to my branch/fork -> do the rest of the changes one

I contribute to various OSS (and private) projects all time just by using the GitHub code editor and catching errors or regressions if any in the CI. Having a fully fledged dev environment is even better.

Any USB-C hub, I'm using an official Apple one. It's a well documented issue.

One ridiculous thing I ran into was that USB-C hubs can block Wi-Fi that is on the 2,4ghz band. Solution? Wrapping it into foil somewhat works but I had to buy a new Wi-Fi access point. Sometimes rotating the USB-C adapters works too.

You joke, but the "engineers engineer until ready don't break flow" trope is one of the most dangerous things that can happen to a project which is why putting emphasis on _daily_ communication (not just communication) is kin
