The only viewpoint I really agree with in this article is the "use it or lose it" mentality. Skills are developed and maintained by practicing them, but if all the author really wants to do is write code, then LLMs are literally a

Going to reply to my own post with a disclaimer: Go with HTML instead. As soon as you even try to position photos, you need HTML and CSS haha. Mine was a bit too simple but I was optimizing for absolute lowest friction possible to writing &

I find this post a bit misleading. It seems like he didn't build a blog. He built a website with real requirements, then added a blog to it. The title* feels a bit rage baity to be honest.

TLDR: You use HTML and CSS. I set out to make a blog in the simplest form possible a few weeks ago. Today I wanted to add some formatting when including photos in posts. It turns out I made some bad calls already when I set things up optimi

I got the idea of live streaming from this community. It takes $0 and about 90-100 minutes to start from 0. If its something you have thought about doing hopefully this helps you. Thanks

Thank you for this post! I have been searching for something that goes a bit deeper than most medium blog posts. I was surprised at how much of the React tidbits I have picked up through trial and error but couldn't quite articulate. I

In my experience, currying is usually helpful as a hack and is tolerable as long as you don't get carried away. One "curry" is fine. Two+ is really pushing it and is probably a signal that something should be refactored. A lo
