I also find that I'm constantly stressed that the plug is going to snap. That being said, in ten plus years of using USB-c.. this has never happened to me or anyone that I know. It's actually kind of impressive, all things conside

I struggled with a dock and a MBP and connecting consistently to a monitor. It was a high-quality USB-C to HDMI cable. I was sure it wasn't that. Turns out it was that.

Am I the only one who thinks that Google Analytics and its brethren are TERRIBLE in actually providing useful data for making decisions for marketing and sales purposes?

I've always played the game that tests are only as useful as you have resources to attribute to them. Mostly all modern development is a compromise between new features and stuff that supports those new features (tests included, but al

I'm curious. Do you attribute this to weak and/or incomplete tests? How granular should tests be to have complete coverage so that an AI won't create a converted codebase that "passes tests" but is still functionall

We read to them from a very young age, and kept doing it. They are 13, 11, and 7 now and we still read books together every night for the littlest one, and most nights for the older two. My wife loves doing it and finds that it is solid bon

My kids are active, voracious readers. At least one book (500-700 pages) a week. It feels like one of the only things that I've really done right as a parent.

It's not just appetite. The market is crazy right now and people don't have money to drop $600-800 on a new console.

I guess that makes sense. Thanks for the answer and the trip down memory lane.

So what am I remembering that A/UX needed to boot from ROM?

by ramijames 3mo ago
If I remember correctly, there's an interesting historical reason for this: a lot of the original functionality that we'd today consider "part of the OS" was actually in ROM on hardware in really old Macs. Mouse function

I eventually stopped. For the longest time I used CMD+S as a "thinking tool" and would just tap it.

I'm torn between "this was so bad, there's no way that they can forget" and "god, there's just enough time for just enough people to forget". I hate this.

I didn't even bother adding them to miserablyunemployed.com. I asked a bunch of our users and zero said they wanted them. I built other stuff instead.

I think that people aren't seeing what Apple is doing through the lens of efficiency, and the wider impact that has on their software and hardware. Them not having to support 30+ year old software means that they can be more nimble and

I'm so grateful that people are starting to see that Tailwind is insanity. Just write your class and your CSS as CSS. We don't need to pollute templates with endless hard to parse and reason about tailwind nonsense.

There's no amount of progress that will make me go back to Windows. 1. Microsoft accounts. No. 2. Ads in my OS. No. 3. Slow copying of files. No. 4. A maddening mix of UI/UX paradigms and implementations. No. 5. AI deeply embedded

Indeed. If you can't spend two minutes (MAX) writing a sentence or two explaining what the commit is for, then what are we doing as developers? Commits are for future you and your future team. They are a tool. Please, use them.
