While I love the game I still think they are overhyping the game in the trailers. The game always looks far more dramatic in the trailers than it actually is in practice. One example that struck me is how they show players flying in formati

What's up with AI producing low usability websites? Dark mode, tiny fonts, gray text on black background, and so on.

All I know is I used to have full on colds during winter in my 20s to early 30s, like every winter I would get two weeks of runny nose till the skin became red and irritated, sore and painful throat, coughing, etc. Since I take 25000 IU (

Damn. I set up a 2vCPU 4GB RAM VPS on Linode for my web app (Linode 4GB). Was ready to move there. Then I found Hetzner has servers in the US and I could get more for my budget (~30$/month). Not anymore! CPX22 (2vCPU 4GB) seems to be t

YouTube seems a little much. Plenty of examples of bright kids who learn coding or electronics at a very young age, no doubt having access to YT is a big part of it. Hmm I guess those kids would use their parents account or something like t

I've never had to configure anything in uBO, it works great out of the box. Therefore uBOL experience is practically the same. I haven't seen a single ads in months of browsing.

The UI is just better overall. Ever since Chrome came out with the "unified search bar" imho Firefox was behind in usability. Firefox just follows. Like recently didn't they add tab groups after Chrome implemented them? Isn&#

uBlock Origin Lite works just as well. I don't see any ads anywhere. My experience has not changed one yota. People just like to rage against Google. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ublock-origin-lite&#x2F

That's awesome. I wish there was like a "raw code" option like on many icons sites you can just copy the SVG.

Superb site. Just annoying in the Infinite View it keeps opening random pages when I just want to drag and scroll.

I don't like how most LLM explainer articles and videos say that essentially a LLM " predicts the next word". I'm a developer but not very good at maths and I still don't understand any of it. A LLM clearly has some

I mean Ubuntu Pro is free for personal use and it extends the LTS support of 5 years so a total of 10 years afaik.

What's the big deal? https://antigravity.google/product/antigravity-cli They just revamped Gemini CLI. Plus it gets the harness of Antigravity, seems like a straight up upgrade to me?

> No more keyboards or mouse support for iPads. Pretty sure there are students at Uni using iPads with keyboard. It's smaller form factor than a laptop.

This is insanely good. But wow, prompting to get any one of these images is way more complicated than prompting Claude Code. There is a ton of vocabulary that comes with it relating to the camera, the lighting, the mood etc.

I agree. I think of AI as a search engine on steroids. But I think it IS the best way to search for information, to be able to put a question in natural language. I'm always amazed just how exactly on-point the answer is. I mean even t

I'm 51 now and I feel like I will never be an adult. Looking around I see a lot of broken people, each in their own peculiar ways. Everyone has some coping mechanisms, triggers, and behaviours rooted in childhood. I don't see it i

"some people apparently exist who need to support ES3 - think IE6/7, or extremely early versions of Node.js" Seriously what kind of business today needs to support ES3 browsers? Even banking sites should refuse to run on such

BEM is actually not hell, since the whole point is to have classes with a specificity of 1, making precedence of CSS rules easy to figure out. Non-BEM CSS with ids and multi-classes everywhere was hell.

That's not the full picture. If you're a senior CSS developer you will invariably reach a point of using "object oriented CSS" which is where you combine classes to an effect. At that point you're not far off Tailwi

I'm trying to catch up with AI but it's difficult because most articles I find are kinda vague and there is a lack of clear examples. It's always about prompting or how AI "is great" yadi yada but hardly any step by

I love this. Great little html page to refresh on Javascript. For fun I put it in chatgpt and asked if there are bugs. It warned about fromBase64() and toBase64() not existing in main browsers. It is supported but is indeed a new "base

I created a similar `$()` utility function for my projects albeit with 10 times less functionality. I used the same basic signature for the `$()` function. However I found that 95% of the time I don't need to use the chain method on a
