This is sorta interesting, but it fails on several levels. First, email verification as it exists currently is fairly simple, there are a lot of different ways to do it, and it works universally for all email addresses (as long as you don&#

It's not an exaggeration. People have been kidnapped by these armed masked idiots within two blocks of my house twice, and those are just the closest cases I know about. Go check out the /r/Illinois subreddit [0] to see what&

No, you're right—I don't think it will be over immigration. I think they'll lose in 2026 and tear themselves apart infighting about who's to blame.

I don't know, man. That is definitely true, but they didn't win by a landslide. And a lot of their edge came from the MAGA Latinx vote. This ICE/CPB action is a total self-own. That Latinx vote is going to disappear, and we&#

TIL about upset plots. Really cool! Venn is already unwieldy at three sets, but four is not really doing the job of communicating the set inclusion clearly. Seven is just a geometric curiosity.

Ah, gotcha—yes, that is actually a pain point and a strange omission. If you need to run backend code for any reason to support your app, Apple literally offers nothing. IBM at one point offered Swift "serverless" lambdas/clo

Not true at all. Swift is a very capable backend language, Apple has open sourced a lot of great libraries to power server software development, and there are projects like Vapor [0] that are used in production. [0]: https://vapo

Wow, this is great news. I still don't understand why it has taken so long, when Swift on Linux has been around for 10 years. But as a FreeBSD user, this is very welcome!

We're finally getting the "pure" capitalism that economists dream about. An infinite number of sellers with perfectly commoditized products, driving margins asymptotically to zero. If you want to get ahead, you'll need t

Hate to break it to you, but NeXTSTEP failed in the marketplace. If Apple hadn't bought them, they'd still be gone. But more importantly: who cares? There is no moral imperative to keep products alive. It's just stuff that pe

It's more complicated than that. Sometimes after 15 years, the founders want to move on and do something else. Or they want to build a dream house. Or their cofounder wants to get out. Or they hear the long-term vision of the acquiring

As an Affinity user, I'm interested to try this out (just downloaded). I'm surprised they tried to put it all in one app. Affinity Publisher is quite different from Affinity Photo for example. Edit: Just checked out the app. They

Unfortunately, Maria Montessori lost control over her name, and now literally any daycare or school can label themselves "Montessori." Look for a school/teachers with AMI (Association Montessori Internationale) certification.

As someone who has designed multiple type families, I might be biased, but this is wonderful. I'm going to send this to any aspiring type designers I meet, or anyone who's curious about what goes into shaping letters.

This is so helpful, thank you. I've been evaluating n8n as a way to build things quickly for clients, but I do wonder about what happens when they want to turn the automation into a full app. I wish there was a first-party way to expor

The thing is, I'm still running FreeNAS 9, not even TrueNAS. If they rug pull, not only will there be forks, but the old versions should just continue to work!

For truly important files (photos), I’ll take the slight added expense of ECC for a little more peace of mind that old photos aren’t being gradually degraded with every resilver or scrub.

Yeah, just put together a TrueNAS system. Mine has been running for 10 years. Drive replacements and upgrades are so easy with ZFS.

It sounds harsh, but maybe that was never a good business model in the first place. And I fully realize that this includes most news sites. In order for the web to grow, I think we need to figure out some way to get past banner ads as the o

Having done a fair amount of LLM webpage generation, it does an okay job, but repeats a lot of "best practices" that are a few years out of date. Specifically around meta tags. If I were doing this, I would have it do Deep Researc
