You typically don't. But a lot of packages that you do install depend on smaller stuff like this under the hood (not necessarily good and obviously better handled with bespoke code in the package, but is is what it is).

Because there is no one to stop you. It's the perfect scam.

That's what I found out, though: the footprint doesn't matter. I did have to write a simple orchestration system, but it's literally just me provisioning a VPS, bootstrapping it with deps, and pulling the code/installi

This is such a bizarre bug-ish thing and while Claude loves the "You're absolutely right!" trope, it's downright haunting how stuff like ChatGPT has become my own personal fan club. It's like a Jim Jones factory.

I may be the odd man out, but after getting unbelievably stressed out by containers, k8s, etc., I couldn't believe how zen just spinning up a new VPS and bootstrapping it with a bash script was. That combined with systemd scripts can g

Most of it doesn't exist beyond videos of code spraying onto a screen alongside a claim that "juniors are dead." I think the "why" for this is that the stakes are high. The economy is trembling. Tech jobs are evapor

Shameless self-promotion, but I think people who agree here would enjoy my full-stack framework [1]. Just launched a new update that's much faster and has a lot more features. It was built for SaaS first, but works just as well for a t

Fair use is the problem. It's too ambiguous and as a result lawyers can play the games they're playing. My solution is dirt simple, keeps everybody happy, and quits wasting time pretending we're living in 1998.

Labels would make a fortune if they just set up an online license request store. Any track in various lengths for various prices. Once you pay, you're granted a license. Could take a few minutes for a podcaster to search a song, buy a

Unfortunately, the tech industry has completely lost touch with anything resembling this. It's a cold machine now; I'd call it soulless but I think that gives it too much animation.

I think this is one thing that people fail to consider: if the code is open source, though it may take time to understand, worst case scenario you can just fork it.

I really like the idea of things left untouched naturally fading away with time. I routinely think about all of the old junk I don't technically need, but keep around for some not-likely-to-happen moment. Would be nice to just wake u

One of the most obnoxious things about LinkedIn are the games that people play. Fake engagement over a series of my posts only to drop their pitch in my messages. That, and it's so rare to find real content on the site that isn'

I don't doubt that, but most consumers are not professional photographers. They want results that look professional. A digital camera is a no-brainer combined with a printing station where the phone just docks. They already have a ve
