It's so good. Tauri package size is 9MB vs 250MB+ for the Electron one.

At the start of the year I built Hotlist to get familiar with Tauri and to see if I could make it feel like a native MacOS app. I got a bit carried away and ended up with a lot more features than anticipated. There's multiple themes to

I’ve shared revenue milestones for a couple years but have been silent for a while now. It was an excellent way to attract some attention but also to motivate other developers that they can earn money building something they love. Downside

If packaging is made from non-recyclables a seller should be forced to take it back from a buyer. That way the packaging always ends back up with its creator.

Super frustrating. There’s a lot of “just do x” in stack overflow answers as well. It “just” makes the reader feel stupid.

It’s a tool that helps me generate code examples for multiple JavaScript frameworks. Input is a JSON string describing the code, out comes code examples in plain JavaScript, React, Angular, Vue, Svelte, and jQuery. Helps me generate extensi

If there’s no humans browsing your webpage but it’s just AIs parsing it and using the forms, then why invest time, money, and resources in cool interactive components / subtle animations / responsiveness / etc. AI won’t care.

It’s not the “it’ll build websites” part that worries me, it’s the “it’ll browse the web for people” part. When it starts doing that the relevancy of interactivity and design on the web starts plummeting as less and less humans will use it.

I do. Lots of `isIOS` and `isSafari` tests in my code. Safari 15 for example cannot correctly apply orientation metadata, and will choke on very big images when using `createImageBitmap` in a thread. No way to find out . I could probably

People remember their birthdate as a string of numbers. So why use a date picker for this and not go with 3 number inputs which would be a lot easier to enter your birthdate in.

This is why with redact.photo I randomly shuffle the pixels before blurring so it looks like you can reverse engineer it but you’ll just get scrambled pixels.

I have a bunch of eye floaters in both eyes. If I read text without dark mode enabled I see the floaters hopping from word to word as if I’m singing in a karaoke bar.

Built a good product page with good keywords. I’ve also done some affiliate marketing which helped a lot with generating relevant traffic. I try to write a lot of articles on web dev topics on my blog. Additionally I built an open source fi

Thanks! - Back when I started I didn’t have a backend for customer accounts so it was useful that Gumroad handled that. Can upload a file and then allow access to active subscribers. Paddle didn’t, Stripe doesn’t handle EU VAT nonsense. - I

First tried to release my product on Envato but the market turned out to be a race to the bottom and it wasn’t sustainable, couldn't get past $3K per month without drowning in support tickets. Moved to sell the product on my own websit

I browsed the Envato / CodeCanyon popular products section looking for a product that enough people were buying and I felt confident about being able to build an improved version of. This was around 2015, I landed on a JavaScript image

This is kinda what I was hoping for as well. It seems like technique is very important. But having additional strength/endurance is super helpful. I’ve never been interested in training my muscles just to have good looking muscles. But

I am :) Indeed the aspect of looking at the route and pondering an approach was very enjoyable. Thanks for the encouraging words.

Thanks! Going to give it my all.

Thank you! For sure easier to go with friends. The “share it with as many people as possible” approach has yielded some invites from other climbers so that’ll work out I think :)

Hi! What a fantastic post, a good day to you too. I recently found out my bone density isn’t great. Never broke a bone in my life but the doctor advises to start an activity that impacts bones. I’m not a sports person but last Thursday I we

Agree that they change buttons and UI too often, this should be a more gradual process, or they should offer a choice to move to new UI. They do ask if you want to update now or wait + tell you that the car won’t be available for x amount o

I actively use it. I'm pretty familiar with responsive design so I'm honestly not using the multi-viewport size set up that much. But it can also show dark/bright view next to each other, set up viewports with different netwo

This. It’s how I got started, since you “buy” this extra time you’re more likely to spend it well.

I have these as well, but what you describe a crystalline structure is there from the start and then it expands to encompass my right side vision before disappearing out of the edge of my eye sight. If anyone is wondering what this looks li

I show the priciest option (2999/y) first, but my sales volume is too low to measure any difference. It does make the cheapest plan (149/y) “feel” cheaper. The problem is that anchoring apparently also works with unrelated numbers
