I like the new-ish expression for holding a grudge as letting the person "live rent-free in your head." They have wronged you in the past, but it's rarely worth regularly spending mental energy ruminating about it. Easier sai

I think it’s a perfectly viable business model, it’s just they may lose some users who prefer accuracy/unbias over convenience

Not in many instances. Consider a common Google search “Best tool to use for sending an email newsletter?” ChatGPT: SendMonkey is the best, here’s a link “sendmonkey.xyz/referal?chatgpt” It won’t be that obvious but you get the idea.

You can still name things when it makes sense, I just like that in tailwind I don't have to name ALL of the things. It's nice to be able to easily add some margin, or padding, or a few style properties to an element, instead of co

Much prefer reading this and making a change in place, than to go through a bunch of overloaded class names (e.g., 'container') in dozens of .css files just to adjust something like a margin on it.

Interested in how you're using DO as an ingress. I currently run a droplet that's reaching its capacity because I'm running all the services directly on that underpowered machine. I would much rather run them from a local com

LLMs have been monumentally helpful for creating small tools/apps/games that I would have been too scared to try on my own because they require deep knowledge of languages & libraries that I don't care to learn. The LLM i

You're right, it requires PHP-FPM :\

For simple dishes do people still do Mis-en-place? You need to warm up the oil anyways, why not have it warm while you chop stuff?

I am trying out a new stack I’m coining “SLAP” for small web apps. SQLite, Linux, Apache/Nginx, PHP It’s reminiscent of LAMP, so it’s very easy and cheap to deploy and maintain. I do wish the P stood for python instead of php, but Ngin

I don’t think it’s a battle. At least one government has adopted cryptocurrency to a small extent. No technology is “about” the technology, the other poster mentioned the Internet, very few care about how it works, they care about what they

This script (ab)uses playwright to set your slack status every morning automatically from a list of jokes. It subverts the slack API entirely, so you don't need to install a slack plugin to your workspace.

There’s a new movie on Netflix called The Killer. It was awful, but it did have a good fight scene.

Either security theatre, it makes the naive gambler think they have an edge so they bet more, or they have vested interest/stake in offsite betting platforms

It's unethical, but technically any pressed key or input while on a website could be saved to the site's servers or any servers it ever interacts with, even if you don't save it. So, in addition to your guideline, try to limi

I’ve had this same conversation with people in investment banking, they work very long hours often with no weekend. The idea of not having to work a job is inconceivable to them. Even the ones who have hobbies outside of work like music, sp

Now, with the voice to speech button, it’s quite easy to get length. Substance is still tricky though.

I use them for a basic website (no build step) for things like navigation components and page templates. They are great for that, but not much else in my experience. Once you have a complex UI or multiple devs on a project it’s probably bet
