In this past Friday's episode, Saks made some pretty terrifying statements about the FCC selling the VHF/UHF Frequencies. He seemed wildly unclear about how leasing that space by the FCC has worked until now and pitched it as a &q

These frameworks are cute, and I understand the desire to avoid the modern SPA JavaScript build systems, but it always seems like so much more work than just writing HTML. I swear, HTML/CSS + Flask + HTMX gets you so far these days. Th

I don't think these are the same, but as a non-web-developer who likes building web side-projects, I love pico.css. It's fantastic for forms and the light grid/container stuff. My stack these days is Flask + HTMX + Alpin.js +

Same here. Total blast from the past. Markdown has obviously replaced it. And Reddit has, for better or worse, replaced the phpBB boards of old. But man, I miss this era.

> ALT-yen-mark to get a proper backslash I believe this is an artifact of JIS_X0201, which is, to my knowledge, the first major Japanese 8-bit encoding and mostly 7-bit ASCII + Katakana (that character set you see in old Japanese video g

I love pico.css! It's the sweet spot for me in being quick and easy to learn but still very capable. Flask + HTMX + AlpineJS + PicoCSS is currently my "All Python and HTML SPA"

https://smol.party A while back I really needed a way to invite some friends to a party and thought about how nice it was when we all used Facebook Events. So I made Facebook Events minus the Facebook (or any account). You can m

Etsy. Ever since the 2017 activist investor event, it feels like they've been trading good will with sellers for profits.

I loved Warp for it's speed, but the keybindings and lack of configuration didn't work for me. For example, it doesn't support "ctrl+x ctrl+e" which I use daily for editing long prompts in vim. I recently switched t

Reminds me of the rumor that the reason it went "Windows 7", "8", "10" and skipped "9" is because the fear of a codebase that went: if(version.StartsWith(“Windows 9”)) { /* 95 and 98 *&#x

I got to work in clojure for two years and it was one of the most useful experiences of my career. I still "think in clojure" even now writing Python, Java, and Go. I can't wait to use it professionally again someday.

The author has references for how it compares in behavior and performance to yjs and automerge in the article.

Biggest performance games most people will see will be dealing with strings when using the pyarrow backend since those are now a native type and not wrapped in a python object. But for people who are looking for the performance polars gives

My favorite part of that story is that Morgan was a rare book collector, his office was essentially a vault, and he locked the other bankers in with him. > As discussion ensued, the bankers realized that Morgan had locked them in the lib

Great landing page but I'm just going to point out that the code sample is curling a WIRE of $40,000 and the top entry in the "Transfers" is a WIRE for $4,000 and its driving me nuts :)

Woah. Thanks! That's actually weirdly really useful to know for my "internal dev tools" hackathon projects.

I've never seen a "share with family member" feature with a browser storing passwords. Also, this means I and all of my family members need to use the same web browser. Using a 1password family plan is the only way I've

It seems like it's mobile-first. On desktop it's kind of silly compared to google sheets, but open it on a phone and it's a joy to use for something quick and screenshot vs google sheets.

My NYC-based startup is struggling with this from the other side right now. Half of us are "in person people" and the other half have never been happier working remote, so we're doing it team by team. My team has decided to b

I agree. This is like when someone says "don't do work you enjoy, just have hobbies". That works for some people, but I prefer to spend my 40 hours doing work I enjoy with people I enjoy being around.

Fantastic. The only thing it’s missing is a broken Reader View easter egg.

Very cool! I'd open a PR to implement it in our Python repo today if it were a flake8 plugin. As a separate linter, I have to update the half-a-dozen places my current linters (flake8 and mypy) get applied (Makefile, .vscode/setti

I totally believe you that PHP is a great general purpose scripting language to deploy mac CLI tools with, but this definitely feels like a https://xkcd.com/1172/ moment.

I think the Citroen Ami might get close to what you want. It’s amazingly small, underpowered, and cost efficient (for example, they don’t manufacture separate left and right doors for it, the passenger-side door just opens backwards). http
