Very interesting, a team at my company recently started writing an internal UI toolkit as well. The first stage would just be HTML + CSS (and maybe some JavaScript), but the second stage will be web components as well, to make it framework

I've been doing it more and more before exercise, especially when doing heavy squats and deadlifts. I also gradually increase my weights so that I'm warmed up by the time I'm doing any heavy stuff. But those 15 minutes in the

As someone who's serious about lifting weights (at least 5 times a week), I can tell you that I almost have zero flexibility these days, my lack of stretching is also causing all types of pain. I sometimes have issues walking because s

That's an interesting take for sure, I'll definitely read the article. Thanks!

Brain aneurysm is truly something terrible, I lost a friend to it a couple of years ago. (She was 22 at the time and in good health). She just woke up one day in the middle of the night with a headache and had to vomit. On the way to the ho

I think that part of the hate comes from the fact that this is a fairly unknown service, and unlike Cloudflare, Heroku or AWS, they don't seem to have any other source of income. So people might just wake up one day, only to find out t

It's far easier online to find and follow people who have the same opinion as you, and block out people with views that you disagree with. And before you know it, you're sucked into an echo chamber with only news that confirms you

I just got my AirPods Pro replaced last week due to the same issue, it started with some squeaking sounds, but eventually it became a loud rattling sound and it became unusable. Stopped by the Apple Store and they just replaced both he left

Where is this speculation coming from? Is there a reliable source? Or is it just people on Reddit making wild guesses again?

I’ve actually never really seen it taking off in HK, most people here are obsessed with Instagram and Facebook. Kids are mainly playing mobile games or watching Youtube.

I get these at least once a week, I guess your email showed up in some publicly made data breach, and scammers just send everyone the same email. I’ve always wanted to reply and waste their time, but on the other hand, I don’t want to waste

Sadly because of the way our organisation works, the scrum master pretty much takes ownership of the whole process, he also sells agile to the business side. So if you go against what he says, the business will know that you’re a trouble ma

The amount of hours our team has wasted on estimating, re-estimating, splitting up stories, simply to make our burn down chart look great is amazing. We would often be forced to split up stories the day before a sprint review, just so that

My ultimate goal (like many) is to have a lifestyle business, or at the very least, be able to work full time on my project. I think thinking that people won't pay for it has more to do with self doubt and lack of confidence in myself.

I've found myself stuck in that endless cycle for years. I find myself highly motivated for the first few weeks, thinking about a future where I can work on this full time. As the project shapes up, I lose interest and start to doubt m

I don’t think the author is arguing that you have to replace your React applications with vanilla JS, but instead of using React by default, you could consider using vanilla JS. The tree things you mentioned might be important to you for a

They’ve clearly went through the process of setting this up with Discord, so it sounds like they thought about this. This day and age, I almost expect every product to have a delete button.

by woutr_be 6y ago
Why do they need a ticket system for account deletion? Won’t a normal delete button be good enough? They shouldn’t force their own internal process on to customers, they could easily have that button use the Discord API to create a ticket.

I don't understand this reasoning; the leverage is that China will ban the entire company from doing business in China, how would this law help anything? I also don't think US laws applies in China, so if a company wants to do bus

I kind of disagree with that, a lot of companies will use terms like "react developer" or "react native developer" because they're looking for specific skill sets, only targeting those skills by explicitly naming th

There’s really no excusing this, or blaming it on some obscure bug. “Yellow” in HK is very specific these days, and definitely political.

This comes pretty close: https://wowthemesnet.github.io/mediumish-theme-jekyll/ I’m not sure how up to date the design is compared to the current styling of Medium, but it’s a good start.
