That answer is a laugh. I quite liked my Vizio when I bought it. After a few updates, I vowed never to buy Vizio again and to recommend against them to anyone who asked. Now, it constantly nags me to buy a new remote, aggressively changes t

Interesting. Apple podcasters frequently rant about what a black hole Apple's Radar bug system is. We're talking hours-long rants in some cases. Luck of the draw, maybe? I'm not doubting you, just surprised to read it. (It fe

The treatment of Daring Fireball articles does feel inorganic to me, but if it is, no one who's talking can say whether it's because of mod abuse or a group of users who really hate the site and want to punish it. And ... while I

Honestly, it's simpler than it was. There were many cases in which `$:` wouldn't work the way you might expect; meanwhile, $derived et all seem to always work without a hitch. It definitely looks less elegant, but I like it much

I felt the same way at first, but even in my small project, I've come to greatly appreciate them—or at least what they seem to enable. I've found deeply nested bindings to work without a hitch, which wasn't always the case in

Concessive openings are a common means to lend extra weight to your conclusion. By signaling you're against $THING in general, your support for $THING in a particular instance is more profound than the support of a person who always su

Funny. Every day at work, I lament that Slack's threads don't work like Discord's. What do you like about them?

Firefox (and its derivatives) is swiftly becoming the only place you can run full uBlock Origin. That's a good reason right there. Ignoring adblock, I think you could flip it. Chrome and Firefox are basically interchangeable, so if the

I wouldn’t expect the bookmark to run afoul of this clause, since the bookmark isn’t the content. Now it’d be a curious case if the bookmark contained a base64-encoded pornographic image.

I keep hoping against hope they will release a 50G clone. Instant buy for me.

Atlas has a generous free tier that is great for hobby projects.

Why is that? I found Postgres's JSONB a pill to work with beyond trivial SELECTs, and even those were less ergonomic than Mongo.

Interesting reading. I hope Swift grows in popularity outside of the Apple world. Though I’ve only played with it, I quite liked what I saw of Vapor (ditto Swift as a whole, with which I have more experience). The next time I need to build

Speaking as someone with an underbite: yes. Easily.

I have an underbite and pronounce those sounds just fine, so I’m a little suspicious of the assertion.

Thanks for the links. This helped point me in the right direction. I made no-argument callables in my launch script and ran `uvx migrate-to-uv`. I then changed the [tool.hatch...] section to this: [tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]

I suppose they could pay "$30K after taxes", but that would be prohibitively involved, from an accounting standpoint. Conceptually, it's odd to me that payouts due to damages are taxed. Of course, it's hardly the strange

Your break-even point will be years away, so no, backyard chickens aren’t the answer for high egg prices. That said, chickens are fun animals, and mine bring me a lot of joy even though I don’t like/eat eggs (the chickens came with my

The challenge I have with adopting uv is it feels like it doesn't have a great replacement for poetry's `[tool.poetry.scripts]` block. For instance, from a personal project that uses a src layout, without being a package, I have t

I think everyone who suffers migraines has their own “relationship” with them. Myself, I can tell when I am “pre-migraine” and know I have to sit down for a bit lest one develops. They most often come from eating junk food after exercise (I

This happens pretty often. Karl Jobst has a lot of videos about cheaters, and it’s always interesting to see how many were ridiculously obvious in hindsight. Frequently, people won’t expect a good player to cheat, because “they don’t need t
