   I would take them to small claims court for sure. That's abusive.

   Wether it is Htmx or Phoenix/Liveview or Hotwire/Stimulus we're seeing a shift in the industry towards augmented HTML rather than throwing away all RESTFUL routes. REST is elegant and this approach is very powerful as well.

   I'm just so surprised by how bad politics has become in the USA. It's like they want to have charia law... or Christian law as it were.

   I don't hear of smaller local shops doing mass layoffs like this. It seems the companies that paid more than local average and overextended themselves during the pandemic are the ones most affected by layoffs.

   This reminds me of early days of internet when flash was starting to gain a foothold. We had so many neat things like this appearing everywhere. Surprises after surprises. Nowadays the internet is really tame compared to that.

   I've lived through the browser wars and I can tell you that this would not surprise me one bit.

   Same as with Apple sales. It's a return to the mean. Pandemic caused a huge rush in sales in this sector. Now it's just slowing down to normal. Doesn't mean the market isn't growing, simply that it's growing slo

    In Canada and many other countries the work you do "for free" can actually be looked at as a donation to a charity and reduce your income tax burden.

    I love the README files in the Elixir open source world. Always to the point and very indicative of what you need to be doing.

    Elixir will present you new concepts that you will be unfamiliar with and the development experience is actually really fun! For becoming a better programmer long term I would go for an Elixir experience early on.

    I foresee a time when we'll write BDD tests and the AI will write the app.

    His point stands for me as well. I saw a lot of huge potential for cross-platform mobile development but desktop feels like a bad port of a mobile app rendered on desktop.

    Shopify like many other successful Ruby shops were successful because of the speed of development. The cost of hosting is secondary and any company the size of Shopify can afford to involve a small team to reduce hosting costs... with impa

    I just made my first cured and dried sausage without the use of pink salt. For anyone fan of charcuterie I recommend trying it out. The results are actually spectacular and my friends and I enjoy better charcuterie with only natural ingre

    AFAIK one gets converted into the other by bacteria and both could react to the strongly acidic environment in the stomach and form nitrosamines which is how we think ingesting them increases chances of cancer.

    That's odd. I found that the most valuable takeaway from the video is opening the file like he did. I didn't know about norm either. Altogether this was really great and I've been using vim for over a decade.

    While I don't know that I'd go that route to build my own thing when Rails 7 already has turbo_streams and Stimulus I understand wholeheartedly why they'd move away from SPA-for-everything. I can't help but feel that th
