They receive my money, as I pay them the way they ask for it. I am actually not responsible for their choices of how they spend it. Everybody has to invest something to deliver their craft. A handyman needs tools and materials. A carpenter

It also heavily depends on the amount of notifications and the brightness of the display. As well as a few - to me not easily identifiable - other factors. In the last few weeks I had battery life between 30hours and nearly 6 days.

If they want to make money, they are totally free to have a website hosting their content behind a paywall. Than I can decide if their content is worth money to me (let me tell you: in 999 out of 1000 "creators" it isn't). Bu

Exactly why I instantly stopped paying for Spotify. They even went so far as to have regular advertising before podcasts. Not paying for shit like that, only because they put a clause in the TOS that says ad free only means ad free music. I

That’s actually a great idea. Especially as one is already cheaper than those yearly subscriptions for a dog tracker (at least in Germany). Sadly they are a bit too big to put on our one cat that always roams a bit far. ;-)

Yes. With a lot of interesting tech, that - as per the article - allows for a better reach and experience (and stability of the situation). Not sure about their claims, though. But a cool writeup nonetheless imho.

I read the article and it beautifully explained that it is a tool for people at public gatherings like festivals to easily be able to find each other. And to be able to alert friends to find one of one would feel uneasy in a situation. The

From the Mailpit README: > Mailpit was originally inspired by MailHog which is no longer maintained and hasn't seen active development or security updates for a few years now.

Wow. This is so much better than what I created as my first website in 1997 when I was 19 years old. I am deeply impressed.

Not a dev per se, but what I see in the data analytics/web analytics space is, that the results from an "analysis" by an AI is oftentimes significantly better than what a junior, sometimes even an intermediate person produces

We need to clearly differentiate between "best known facts currently available" and "already disproven bullshit". The first one has an expiration date in the (unknown) future. The second one has one that’s already in the

Copying is robbing the artist of their revenue. So you are actually proposing a solution to make life worse for artists. What a dishonesty.

My experience with warranty at Amazon was nothing but great every single time. Okay, I am from Germany with quite strong consumer protection. But still. Shopping at Amazon is so damn riskless, why would I buy at a small shop I don't kn

The ancient Greek - in line with this - thought of Hope as a dangerous thing. Because it made us neglect the danger already around us. That's why I think we nowadays get the Pandora's Box myth wrong. Hope at the bottom was the mos

I agree. I once built a small weather application that changes the background image based on the weather being reported. I wanted to understand single page applications a bit better and just decided to do it in Vue. Had never done anything

The same goes, if I remember my HR buddy correctly, for quite a few of those "best company to work at" awards. So if it isn't a reputable source, why trust any of this crap? It like all these logos that companies (or industry

I have never had a problem with Authy in that regard. Yeah, I share my 2fa with every device and defy the purpose. I know. But if you have access to any of my devices I sm already compromised.

Nice plot for an interesting novel. Imagine your society having all but forgotten about the destructive seed-probes and coming to colonize the system it crashed in and malfunctioned.

This advice is golden. Please OP, listen. I can only second this. There is so much truth in it, that even the German medical insurance system understood this and made it so that the first five sessions with a therapist are only for getting
