That's where I feel like it's actually pretty nice to not have CI tied to your source code. It's probably more expensive to use Travis/Circle but at least you don't have a single point of failure for deploys.

Social sharing in general isn’t really used I’ve found. Case-in-point: Spotify Wrapped. The vast of the majority of the users just screenshot their phones instead of simply clicking a button to share on a platform. Granted, it’s harder to d

I would posit that _most_ apps are losing luster. People are wary about Silicon Valley's business models and promises to make their lives better. Take Airbnb: it was supposed to be cheapter/more convenient but now people are using

Before they went down it seemed that there were many big publishers who got the owner to disable it for their sites. Either that or the sites learned to actually not send their articles unless the user is logged in (and didn't care abo

I think climate anxiety has a lot to do with continued spending. People aren't having kids, or having much long-term goals, _because_ they don't know how the society and the world would look like in 50 years. So why not just live

In this context, it could read as he and his family, or just people around him. We're all not one person, we're a reflection of people we interact with. Hence, "they".

Agree, they rolled out the "Following" tab and it's a ghost town. Shipping it with the algorithmic feed at least made it look like a lively, if somehwat chaotic place.

Tailwind was great because it made it obvious how the classes connected to the configuration. Tachyons was very much was marketed as a "bootstrap" sort of thing where it wanted you to use their configuration and that's it.

It's possible sure but unlikely. There's a reason why there are countless news channels that span the political spectrum. Just because some orgs jump ship from Twitter, doesn't mean that all of them will, and there will be so

It doesn't have the hyper-local capabilities that reddit has but metafilter.com deserves a shoutout. It has an established community, has been around for _ages_ and is a good replacement for /r/all and the like.

Tumblr. It's much more "empty" and full of niche communities. It'll also add support for ActivityPub so it'll be a decent way to hook into Mastodon servers as well. https://www.theverge.com/2023&#x2F

One of their huge endeavors is to build an ad-tech company that serves ads based off of first-party data that they gather on Vox Media sites. It's a fairly ingenious way a media company is diversifying their revenue tbh, especially wit
