Have you actually looked at what's exported? You need to do a lot of parsing, and modifying before that content is usable...

I've tried to use TiddleWiki, and while it's an impressive piece of software, it suffers from the same issue many other community-run open source software does: it's ugly, and hard to use. Yeah, I get it, there are themes and

There's also this: https://apps.apple.com/hu/app/healthfit/id1202650514 It let's you schedule exports of some of your data to multiple sources. I use it to sync to Google Sheets, where I can easily

But you're not referring to someone with the wrong pronoun, but using a gender neutral one.

How nice of you to call my real life experiences, and the experiences of the 10 million people rubbish. You never once mentioned the UK in your initial comment, just socialism. Yeah, we have different things here than in the UK, that does n

I live in a mostly socialist country, that's part of the former soviet block. I always get angry when I read about the benefits of socialism, because it's 90% bullshit for everyone not in the low classes of society (and mostly bul

But why would they? If they had to pay warehouse workers twice as much, what makes you think they wouldn't try to automate away even more jobs? Companies rarely exist to give employees more money; their goal is to increase the wealth o

What's so WTF about suggesting that a software protocol, that would be widely beneficial in most of the world, should have English documentation? English is the closest thing we have to a common human language.

I'm not saying that the quote make sense in this context, because frankly it doesn't. But the personal views of whoever said it should not matter when evaluating it's validity.

I've recently had a similar experience. Clean install of vscode after using the same profile for years, and the performance was night and day. A few days pass, and it's gone. The more extensions I installed, the slower everything

Sounds cool! Mind sharing what are you working on, or at least the rough space you're in? Also, how did you start marketing it/getting your first users?

+1 on this. To the author: It looks like your site is using next.js. You can use the `Link` component for this purpose: https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next/link

Anki is definitely incredible! But it's in no way easy to use once you do anything more than a few hundred simple cards. Just take a look at this video, and the apps ui, and tell me this isn't a clusterfuck: https://www

by randomchars 6y ago
As much as I like Anki, it's as usable and nice-looking as it is expensive. So shortly, it isn't either. It's only natural that most people gravitate towards easier to use and nicer looking software.

Looks good, but... Why is it geolocked? I can't download it in my County.

But isn't the big caveat that those companies only pay that in SV, and not in ie Europe? I could earn more in 10h/week at Gumroad then even my most well paid developer friends do here.

Why wouldn't it be? Hiring contractors, and not employees is completely normal and legal in most countries.
