I learned the power of a fake tweet last month[1]. Some backstory: I found that Twitter’s use of emoji is not immediately recognizable because they render their own image rather than relying on the native implementation. So I tweeted what a

A somewhat counterpoint to the first example in the article: I created a Reddit account (11 years ago) without an email address and forgot the password. Now there is no way to reset the password and recover the account. I never bothered to

It would be great to move robots.txt to .well-known instead. Same with favicons, although you can specify an arbitrary path to most favicons using index.html

This parody website is probably close to 10 years old so it’s a bit outdated. But the premise still stands, just needs more feature checkboxes :)

There’s a lot of different metrics to look at when determining if one should install a dependency or not. One such metric I found to be missing for npm dependencies was the install size, which is why I created https://packagephob

I used to play Worms Armageddon back in the day and picked up Worms 3D a few years later. The 2D version always had a special place in my heart but I must have lost the CD-ROM over the years. It’s exciting to see this game is still worked o

What you described here is basically how Next.js works :) The blog post mentions the 3 APIs that make this possible: - getStaticProps (Static Generation): Fetch data at build-time. - getStaticPaths (Static Generation): Specify dynamic route
