I’m loving this thread. I feel like Hunter S Thompson reading the gonzo review: “okay, that’s what I do. Shadow IT.”

Svelte is pretty close to this (at the expense of a build step). It gives you (in my opinion) better ergonomics that React, has no runtime and outputs sites that don’t require JS unless they do. Sveltekit (its official fullstack framework)

It’s quite a common pattern in modern frontend frameworks. Each component includes just the CSS required for that component (plus any global styles). At built time, the bundler will generate unique class names for each of the HTML elements

What about for getting quotes on insurance? Or booking a restaurant? Or a flight or hotel? Submitting your taxes? Getting printable directions to a trailhead? Proving feedback on someone’s Figma document? Previewing a 3D model before gettin

The exception is when using a framework which isolates CSS at the component level, in which case your class names don’t matter anywhere near as much because you’ll only ever see them alongside the corresponding HTML.

But very often it is software development. And there isn’t always some bright line between them. Like it or not, the web is an excellent platform for delivering software applications to users, especially one-off or infrequently used applica

Yes, but the article clearly states that the website is a joke, not a honeypot.

Kotaku is the worst example of journalistic integrity in the last 10 years?

I think the logic is that getting anyone to get out their credit card and pay anything at all for content is a tough barrier, and the difficulty of crossing it doesn’t scale linearly with the asking price. That and micropayments remain an u

A really interesting read, and super fun to boot. One feels the reviewer enjoyed themselves.

If the price were nearly the same, why would anyone choose to deal with criminals and expose themselves to some level of legal risk when they could get the same product (with a warranty) in a store?

Why would that matter?

I agree, for what it’s worth. It’s hard. Roundup kills weeds and it seems miles better than other things that also kill weeds. But yeah it’s bad so don’t use it, but that doesn’t solve the question of what should we use instead. It’s genuin

Not if it’s randomised. However that would make the video stream harder to cache.

The whole Sequoia thing is so interesting. Here is an excerpt from their (now taken down) profile of SBF, highlighting the moment he convinced them to invest: > That’s when SBF told Sequoia about the so-called super-app: “I want FTX to b

Much software remains outside the browser, yes. Especially games and professional tools. But it’s not hyperbole to say the browser has become the dominant software delivery platform outside of mobile. Email, CRMs, CMSs, electronic dictionar

This one might be a false positive. The article contains lengthy first person descriptions of conversations with SEO “pioneers” and reflections on how they’ve shaped the internet. I’d also question the heuristic in general. Anecdotes serve

I don’t think anyone ever thought joypad was better for first person shooter accuracy. Especially in the 90s when console FPSs barely involved aiming.

I’m not saying that’s not true. But the push to have them also doesn’t feel wholly organic. Robotaxis feel like one of those new technologies that we’re gonna have whether we like it or not, because enough very rich people want us to have t

“I will do barbaric things so long as there are no adverse consequences to me personally” is not really an ethical defence of eating meat.

I don’t have any particular position, beyond hypocrisy. I’ve been vegan at times in the past, currently I’m not. As for pet ownership, I honestly don’t know. I think it’s certainly ethically complicated but personally I don’t think it’s wro

It’s hard for an individual to regulate or reduce factory farming. And indeed the overlap between vegans and animal rights activists is likely quite large. But there’s also something to be said of simply opting out of a system you believe t

The verb “to opt” just means to make a choice. Programmers created the “opt in/opt out” binary as a useful way of describing how new features got rolled out. But it’s perfectly fine to say (for example) that I “out out” of voting, even

Sounds like you’re not in Spotify’s market if you don’t want to stream and you don’t care about discovery. It’s probably not the right service for you.

Agreed. It’s one of the best music shows out there. Selfishly I hope Andrew Jervis wasn’t laid off but realistically it’s hard to imagine everything continuing as before with 50% of the company gone.

He’s said a couple of times that it’s used for (amongst other things) connecting with and cultivating sources. That’s definitely not talking to each other. Also, in the context of the GP “talking to each other” was clearly intended to mean

You don’t have deal with it very much because the barrier of finding a sufficiently skilled artist who is motivated to do so is quite high compared to the reward. If the barrier is simply typing a few words into a web app however… Spam emai

Then they’ll be disappointed. Accepting gay stuff does not weaken any country or region.
