And talking about tests... I recommend [bats]( https://github.com/bats-core/bats-core ) for testing! I'm slowly adding tests to my dotfiles using this.

A static site may use JS, but doesn't require server-side logic (PHP, databases, or any other type of dynamic content). In this case OP implies that it doesn't even require a build (because you may create a static site through a b

OP shared an opinion backing it with links to more information. What are your disagreements? Could you give a fundamented counter-opinion besides your snarky response?

At this point wouldn't it make sense to just rewrite it from scratch? I'm sure there are projects already doing this (take a look at this one for example! https://webamp.org/ )

Last.fm allows you to track your whole listening history (and you can export it or play with their API). I agree it could be interesting to infer something valuable from what a person likes (musically), but I don't know if there's

As someone who lives in a city where ~15 mbps is the max you can get... this is accurate. Streaming in 1080p with high quality may not work. Downloading a game over 80gb requires a couple of days. Oh, and I have just 1mbps upload, so syncin

This also reminds me of my bookmarks from StumbleUpon. Flash games and cool sites -most of them not working today-.

Because it was convenient and powerful. Ever since Google Reader shut down I lost track of technology news. Yes, I can read the same sites/blogs I read before one by one, or subscribe to their newsletter, or follow them on Twitter... b

I'm not a person who uses to return products, and I had mine for just two weeks. It was constantly reading/writing to disk. All the time. It wasn't indexing: the QNAP system has a lot of small services and some of them write

It's worth noting that AEM is often very badly set up, following requirements from managers who have no idea or concern about web development, and later maintained by low cost content editors who barely know some HTML. Moreover, this C

Google Reader was free. I can't afford 50 usd/yr just to read RSS feeds (yes, there's a free plan, but it's limited and at that point I'd rather stick with RSSOwl or similar -free- tools).

How does it work with poor or slow internet connection?

by zimmund 7y ago
Thanks for your reply! But it doesn't answer my question: I'm worried about how you will sustain your platform in the long run for all those free tier users. Learning a new tool -even if it's friendly and has a community arou

It looks like an interesting alternative to Zapier (or its open source counterpart n8n [1]). As a potential user, before even trying the tool I'd like to know how are you planning to monetize it. Free sounds awesome, but you'll ge

by zimmund 7y ago
Zapier is propietary and prohibitively expensive. Yes, I like it -- but I'd rather support small projects like this one, even if it requires a bit more of time.

Mind sharing a bit about what your company does and how is it trying to help solve this problem?

In my experience, phones break more often than chargers, so you end up having several chargers laying around. Using the Pi for DIY projects, computing experiments (e.g. clusters) or learning, it makes sense to recycle those chargers (specia

I wonder, however, if smoothing skin makes for a lighter (compressed) image, resulting in bandwidth savings. We don't need to see skin details in a work conversation, just expressions. Perhaps the feature should just be renamed/re

Correct. This is how Mailchimp and other similar services can tell if you opened an email.

The browser itself continued working fine. Are you aware of any life-depending extension? Leaving this particular issue aside, your hypothetical "browser extension for people in the middle of the ocean" was doomed from its incepti

> Imagine having mobile devices that only need to be charged once a week or so. In practice we would have devices consuming 10x more power. The battery from your phone would probably power a phone from 2005 for more than a week.

OP didn't say it was a decision, just the message perceived. If you live outside the US, hearing stories or reading what happens to others is enough to know these things happen, anyway.

This reminds me a lot of Google Wave. While I have my concerns about a format brought by Google (who may be defining a bit too much of the web these days), adding richness to emails will be refreshing. As long as we keep the idea that a mes

It's neat, but if a person is learning I think it's good to have that little extra verbosity. A new user may even get confused because its editor doesn't convert symbols.

Looks very nice! At $20/mo there are alternatives (Zapier comes to mind) that may cover your needs as well. There's also Node-RED for those wanting something self-hosted (though it won't be as straight-forward). The interesti

They are subnetwork masks! It's a formal way of expressing in which range you will find the addresses of a given network (for example: 3.0.0.0/8 is like saying "3.x.x.x addresses"; or, for common home networks you will f

I agree, Krita is more aimed at drawing than image manipulation (but as others said it's not akin to Illustrator)
