Does React Flow still advertise itself unless you pay the developers at least $169/month?

My prediction is that it will soon be a requirement for all websites and apps with user-generated content to require authentication with the UK government's Digital ID OAuth provider and that requirement will include linking the user&#

I remember a time when the topic of a lot of forum posts was Irrlicht vs. Ogre3D . If I recall correctly, Ogre3D was harder to get started with and had a smaller scope (just the scene graph), but was the better of the two 3D scene graph im

I'm right there with you. These platforms are cancer. There's a small but growing movement away from smart phones. It'll probably never go mainstream, though.

There are many third-party money apps that login to your online banking that are a violation of ToS. That doesn't stop people using them. In fact, when they get really big, they can be legitimised by banks. For example, to get my mortg

Most of it promotes incest. They use the word “step” as a workaround, but everyone knows.

Are you referring to educational pictures of human anatomy? There’s quite a difference between that and porn.

Why are we conflating pornography and Wikipedia?

by steve_taylor 1y ago
I personally support age verification for porn. However, age verification for almost anything else, e.g. Reddit, is a terrible idea.

It can cover as much of the back-end that your front-end uses directly as you’d care to deploy as one service. Obviously if you’re going to have a microservices architecture, you’re not going to put all those services in the one Next.js app

I was all in on SvelteKit until I noticed weird CSS issues thanks to :global.

Be careful with Netlify. Their bandwidth charges are even more egregious than Vercel’s.

You can indeed do that with Next.js. In the app router, it’s called generateStaticParams. In the pages router, it’s getStaticProps.

Back in your day, there wasn’t a developer experience by which you could build a website or web app (or both) as a single, cohesive unit, covering both front-end and back-end, while avoiding the hydration performance hit. Now we have Astro,

It's definitely a fashion. I sympathise with those who legitimately have these conditions and are dismissed as attention-seeking.

DSM-5 took a bunch of distinct disorders and rolled them into one new disorder called Autism Spectrum Disorder. The only problem it solved is to reduce the number of disorders with unknown pathologies. My classically-autistic son who needs

The web was like that for about the first 10 minutes. In 1996, the "modern" web accepted that web pages were almost always going to incorporate appearance and made it sane by standardising CSS.

When you have a team of full-stackers with some front-end focused, some back-end, and some in the middle, with the right team culture these people can learn from each other and grow into well-rounded full-stack devs. And given the current m

A filter could probably do it already. There are already filters to make you appear to be looking at the camera no matter where your eyes are pointing.

Acknowledging the existence of hierarchies in nature is now politically incorrect. You're only allowed to believe that they're an artificial construct fabricated by a money-hungry capitalist boomer cabal to oppress you.

When a Canadian psychologist mentioned lobsters and hierarchies, the dogma to which members of a political group subscribe was updated to include the denial of alphas as a natural phenomenon, making it instead an artificial construct invent

If you want to cheat in 2025, you buy a bag of virtual coins and spend those coins on boosters, extra turns, etc. If you wanted to cheat in 1992, you'd call the Sega Hotline on a premium phone number and they'd give you cheat code

I don't really agree with this. There's no shortage of computing platforms in a variety of form factors (including tablets) for which root access is possible. When you buy an iPad, you do so knowing what you're getting and wh
