A thing I find odd about Product Hunt is that I have only ever heard about it in the context of founders launching, through HN. I've never read anything from a user's perspective, no "I found this cool thing on Product Hunt&q

So what is the best algorithm when you have a bunch of people and want them sorted in order of, say, birthday.

I knew a guy who had a clear "three strikes rule". If you turned down invitations three times in a row, you were told clearly that you weren't getting any more invites until you had extended one yourself. It's pretty fai

Let's say you're working on an app that incorporates some Italian place names or roads or something. It's easy to imagine how when you build the app, you want to download the Italian region data from geofabrik then process it

I've been really caught out a few times when ChatGPT's knowledge is flawed. It gets a lot of stuff about DuckDB deeply wrong. Maybe it's just out of date, but it repeatedly claims that DuckDB doesn't enforce any constrai

As a freelance developer, I've already had one job that was essentially vibe coding cleanup - though I ended up recommending that I just rewrite the whole codebase (I reused one tiny piece). It's definitely a new world.

This isn't a principled stand, it's just a negotiating tactic. They'll allow it when the price is right.

I'm always just amazed how damn long they can be. On some channels I watch they are 2 to 3 minutes long every video. It would be madness to sit through that.

Yeah, it's one of my bugbears that a framework like React is built to solve a niche problem (running an enormously big and complex app like Facebook for an audience where timing is critical), and then gets doled out for everyone, even

I have by far the most experience with Vue, but I'm a bit ambivalent about Vue3, and often still write in a Vue2 style. Svelte looked pretty nice, but before I had a chance to really proficient, that codebase got re-written in Solid. S

I hated that feature SOOO much. It was so difficult to grab the mouse without accidentally doing some additional gesture. I'm really glad that feature never caught on.

It's a shame that sin and cos get lumped in with all the other trigonometry that you don't need to know, because the two basic formulas are incredibly useful and easy to learn: x = distance * cos(angle) y = distance * sin(angle) S
