Much quieter, but still loud enough that I was told to move it from the living room to an unused room :)

Thanks! I found the command here: https://blog.filegarden.net/2020/10/06/reduce-the-fan-noise-... Is that your blog?

Haha that's totally fair - but I'm definitely still enjoying my teenage years and building social skills. I work on my hobby stuff in the free time I have after enjoying my teenage years, hanging out with my friends (and studyin

Thank you, that's really cool. I hope it worked well!

Thank you! Those are all really good tips. I heard stuff similar to some of them getting started myself, and I wish I heard the rest too. :)

Thank you! The social media platform is a Twitter-like website for my friends (roughly 3000 of them registered, but smaller set of daily active users) that I started building in 2020. I made it to learn new technologies, so I've rewrit

I'm in the graduating class of 2025, which is closer than it appears.

Absolutely. I think that's the practical solution I'll do when I move out. Until then, it's definitely not nearly as fun though!!

I do! I just haven't had the time to measure everything and find the right screws and table.

That is so cool! I've also been thinking of adding an old graphics card somewhere to support some ML stuff too - I just have to figure out how :)

Absolutely, I am so glad I'm not the only person who feels this way. Microsoft does not understand domain names. They use 1drv.ms as the domain in OneDrive emails, and sometimes it almost looks like the .ms ccTLD belongs to them - it v

I built my own Replit-like web app called Dock'n'Roll powered by Docker to write quick web apps in any language and quickly host them in isolated containers on a subdomain of my domain (*.varunbiniwale.com) https://www.

Sunbird was claiming they reverse engineered iMessage (either to maintain e2e encryption, or to just do stuff on device). It looks like Beeper has actually managed to do the latter, which is really exciting!!

If this really works, it is what Nothing's partnership with Sunbird claimed to do (and lied about) a couple weeks ago - before being called out and shut down https://texts.blog/2023/11/18/sunbird-security

One thing I really liked about Replit is being able to spin up a public website really quickly and just 'code in production'. It's really great for one off projects/demos, I think they've removed that from the free

While I agree with most of the arguments here, this article feels a little contradictory - it recommends Tailwind but also tells us to 'stay clear of build steps'. Shipping massive CSS/JS resources goes against the whole incl

This is really cool! The filename on certain Amazon 404 pages (eg. https://www.amazon.co.jp/404 ) is still kailey-kitty.gif (but the image has been replaced with a standard icon). I also found this comment from him on a blog

I briefly touched on that in the explanation. The getComputedStyle function lies about the styling of links. I haven't looked into canvas based approaches but they're probably similar. There are timing attacks that work automatica
