And yet many of them succeed? So unless you think all their subscribers are stupid, they must see a reasonable value exchange. In the large enterprise where I work, I've often argued against building our own in-house XYZ with the pos

He's not wrong though. David Sacks isn't exactly shy about being pro-Trump for all the worst/selfish reasons.

Ah well, your question wasn't clear. But your clarification helps!

I doubt they provide any kind of guarantee that they'll catch everything. That's not what a tool like this is used for (i.e. it's not a security tool or a network monitoring service). OSINT is about gathering data from publi

Definitely worse because not every character maps to a pixel. The use of different characters is designed to represent spaces that have groupings of different coloured pixels in different configurations. You could try to output everything

So under the hood this relies on Cloudflare, if I understand it? Is it making calls to a CF API in the cloud, or running locally? That part isn't clear to me.

My roommate back in the day did this for some FPS games. He had a little crosshair made of string taped to the middle of his monitor.

Yep! On the 2nd level, once I had the key, I kinda knew where I had to go? Even though the level isn't exactly the same as the one in Quake.

Let me start by saying I didn't realize you were speaking about your own experience! I thought we were having a theoretical discussion here. That changes the stakes on your end of course.. Just a question, when you say "request

They have an internal IceCast server with all of it.

Never said it should be the first option but if your direct manager doesn't like you and won't talk about it, you don't have that many options. There is a power imbalance at play, and you are not on the good end of it. Framin

Try to change roles or companies? I don't mean this flippantly here, it's a crap situation to find yourself in but sometimes people just don't get along, or people are just not great, and you do need to know when to cut your

It's probably because the actual payment/donation is not directly connected to the podcast production, but rather you perform the work elsewhere, and then ask people to go tip you. Other than in your head(s), there's no actu

Because most non-technical people greatly underestimate all the moving parts in a website, even a simple one. And yes some websites truly are simple and can be managed with a few Markdown pages and a static site generator (even that can be

Not that it's an acceptable reason, but could they be paying some kind of ongoing license for a codec or some other licensed software on the thing?

What I always find so disappointing in these scenarios is when companies are too chicken-shit to just give a reasonable honest explanation to requests like open sourcing this to avoid them all turning into e-waste. It feels like adding insu

Bluesky is still pretty new. They've only been open to the public for less than 4 months. They are moving slowly on purpose. I get what you're saying but perhaps give it some time to grow? Twitter has been around for almost 20 y

I would consider including some context on the homepage that this supports a board game and isn't a standalone game.. Great work too!

I'll ignore the part where you're wrong about the lock-in, but to the rest of what you said... Yes? I guess I didn't think it needed to be said so explicitly, but if you are opting into Plot and Framework, you are accepting

by sbarre 2y ago
Yeah I hear you, if you know exactly what you want, Plot is probably not for you.. But I've found lots of value in using Plot to explore data, and quickly throw something together and look at it, and decide if it's a good way to

If you like the idea of using D3 for data visualization but you want something a bit higher level, check out Observable Plot[1], a library by the D3 team that adds a lot of conventions and conveniences on top of D3, specifically for buildin

You didn't "mention" it, you implied that I believed this, when it wasn't even part of the discussion. You can believe whatever you want, but you really shouldn't accuse others of such things. Also: this whole topi

Absolutely. Everyone's creative process is different (and valid).

I know you weren't implying this, but not every storyboard is for sharing with (or seeking approval from) decision makers. I could see this being really useful for exploring tone, movement, shot sequences or cut timing, etc.. Right now

Did I say that? Did I mention the USA at any point in this discussion? What a strange thing to add. I am not American btw.

They don't have to be friends to turn a blind eye. If Dubai had to pick between letting some nobody foreign national living on their soil get squeezed by a foreign secret police, or pissing off the Russians, what do you think they wou

How old were you when you first saw it? I know when I go back to movies that "blew my mind" when I was a teenager or in my early 20s, now 30 years later, they're rarely as incredible as I remember them being.. I'm older,
