Yes if you don't need 3mb of JS sent across the wire for some basic interactions. No if it's a legacy system that was built before Vanilla JS caught up and standardized a lot of what jQuery brought to the table.

My wife and I just discovered that we have different beliefs about "this Friday" vs. "Next Friday". I never even knew there was another possibility, so it's cool to see this mentioned here so soon after.

This is quite clever, I really like it. Don't often see Jesus making it onto HN. The timing is good too, as I sit here browsing HN waiting for my men's Bible study to start.

Another excellent museum is the Kodiak Military History Museum at Fort Abercrombie, on Kodiak Island, Alaska. It has some old working telephone and teletype systems. You can watch the physical switching equipment do its magic. It is truly a

This is not the answer you're looking for, but it is my honest and genuine answer: I fixed it easily. I quit using GTM, GA4, and UA altogether. I have zero Google and Facebook scripts on my sites anymore. Particularly after the GA4 tra

I run the opposite direction whenever I see a passkey pop-up. I do a lot of IT support for small businesses, non-profits, and old people, and more concerning to me is the way passkeys are presented. Or, more accurately, not presented. They

This is very exciting to see momentum going in this trajectory. Kudos to all involved behind the scenes to even get to this point. Ideas are cheap, execution is hard, especially across so many disciplines, so major props for the coordinatio

I do this in a couple of different businesses, except I pay them for their time. Why is an applicant's time less valuable than an employer's time? I guess because we worship business and labor and money? Or the hiring process inna

No. Whenever the word "diet" is used with regards to not eating "this" or only eating "that", something has already gone wrong. A "diet" is a voluntary restriction (well, usually after some involuntar

I was just quoting Pollan yesterday, which is the quote right at the top of the article. "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." Succinct, doesn't alienate anyone, or make a lot of rules, or shame you for doing the wrong thi

The PHP Foundation, because while half the world was loudly throwing shade on the language, they were quietly making it good, stable and boring for the other half of the world to get work done :)

This is not representative of all/most Christian dads. On the contrary, my father has been a Bible professor for 30 years, and I've never met a better example of a loving father, to all 5 of his kids.

And it's even worse: the one useful part of the homepage (the repo search on the top left) only searches for "recent" repos. If you have more than a handful of repos you're responsible for (which we all do), you will pul

I saw the writing on the wall in 2017 and decided to never use stripe, and have been happily migrating new clients off of it since. There's a large market for offboarding stripe clients.

I cut off a small slice on one end, then put a spoon in and slide it around between the shell and the egg. Similar to how you'd get an avocado out.

Bummer, sorry to hear that. Their policy is more important than your patronage. I started avoiding AirBnb like the plague about 5 years ago over a similar situation (not nearly as severe or costly). Similar in that their "policy"

I guess it's possible. But I also don't really have anything to ignore....? I genuinely never have an issue; it builds code, every time. I commit code, push it, wait 45 seconds, it syncs to AWS, then all my sites periodically ping

This is the joy of HN, for me, at least. I'm genuinely fascinated to read that both GitHub Actions and DevOps are (apparently) so universally hated. I've been using both for many years, with barely a hiccup, and I actually really

I've always ignored them. They can only measure context that's important to computers, or abstractions of importance. Humans have different wants and needs than what Google can measure. A great example of this: in order to ship en

Be good at something and help someone with that. If you're not good yet, do it for free first until you get good, cause it will take you awhile to debug and troubleshoot and work out the kinks of what you're trying to do. Then do
