Vercel scares the hell out of me - their previous handling of that runaway bill of 6k was atrociuos. They basically blamed the user and only handled it after it gained traction on social media. Beyond that, they do a lot of things with web,

You'd also have to factor in the personality of the kid. Some kids are so much easier to raise, it's not always a fair comparison.

I have high hopes for this. Postman somehow managed to make a slow, bloated, piece-of-crap api-tester that's somehow wildly popular. Extrapolating from that, I expect this to be incredibly successful regardless of how good it is.

Makes sense, not a lot of space companies to begin with, much less with people that have a startup mentality. Feel like the culture at Boeing or NASA is going to be very different from the one needed for a pioneering startup. And even then

I know I am missing the point but I hated that short story. There's no way any digital society loses record like that naturally since it's so cheap to store such information and have it last a long period of time and there's

The vector displacement maps for sculpting look amazing. Kind of surprised they didn't lead with that instead of focusing so much on the hair.

It's remarkable how unremarkable that interview was. I think a major problem I had is that there was very little new substance with lots of nonsense. One of the biggest criticisms about transitioning from non-profit to for-profit can b

It's not a library. I think this would be a valid argument if it was an actual library. jquery was a library. React is a framework because you're passing in code to React, which it then uses to do things like render components and

This is something that I really dislike about the react ecosystem. The devs and community leaders keep being impractically obtuse about how the framework should be used and is used. React isn't low level enough to be this unopinionated

Because school isn't about maximizing education; it's a daycare so that parents can work and children can come out with a uniform education that will suffice to do basic things in society like read/write/taxes etc.

It's such a particularly bad name. Just absolutely awful. I genuinely think that there's some people that don't use it just because of the name, or at least are very resistant to it - and I say that because I am one of them.

Everything in that article is why I don't like asciidoc. I think a lot of documentation should be absolute dead simple - no macros and complex behavior. It should just work. Markdown is great for that.
