   I'll probably be downvoted to the bottom of the ocean, but I feel this needs to be said: - Why does it matter who or what wrote a thing? And how would you know if the /content/ is worthwhile, unless you read it... - The abili

   A single counter example: In East Bay CA. I designed and built my 9kw solar roof installation myself. No electricians at all. The process was very easy and working with my city and power company was simple, with no blockers at all. 4 years

   Yes apparently so: my customer is a very intelligent research director at a well known company. He was very excited to tell me about going "headless", and I was very confused for a solid 5 minutes before figuring it out. He told m

   My clients and colleagues are bragging about "headless web sites", by which they mean "sites built without WordPress (and kin)", by which they mean "sites built entirely using the English language via AI" In th

   Downvoted for breaking this guideline: "Don't be curmudgeonly. Thoughtful criticism is fine, but please don't be rigidly or generically negative." The "It's clickbait" comment at the end made me feel pain

   Agreed within the narrow confines of web dev (which is all that I do). I used to write 500-1000? LOC per day but now I've built several full fledged (250k+ arr) sites with more features than I've ever been able to implement in suc

   Thank you for this post! 1) I've been considering Zed for a long time, but it hasn't worked well in my KVM. Due to the poor(?) ability to pass GPU through on my Ubuntu 24.04 machine. I have read that 26.04 may have fixed this so I

   I call this the "Everything in Moderation" fallacy. From what I've heard people who say it, they emphasize the everything part of it. In other words almost everything is bad for you so just eat a little bit of everything and

    Respectfully disagree. An AI with full access to robots could do everything on its own that it would need to "survive" and grow. I argue that humans are actually in the way of that.

    For sure! But just for reference, I'm on a mid-tier 2022 Dell Inspiron laptop: Ryzen 7 5825U with 64GB ram and 500GB SSD. On it, I run Ubuntu 24.04 as my host, and my guest is Lubuntu with 16GB ram and 80GB ssd for my KVM. I almost alw

    I'm surprised to see so many people using containers when setting up a KVM is so easy, gives the most robust environment possible, and to my knowledge much has better isolation. A vanilla build of Linux plus your IDE of choice and you&

    For anyone else on the fence about moving to CLI: I'm really glad I did. I am converting a WordPress site to a much leaner custom one, including the functionality of all plugins and migrating all the data. I've put in about 20 hou

    The status quo system you describe isn't objectively optimal. It sounds archaic to me. "We" would never intentionally design it this way if we had a fresh start. I believe it is this way due to a meriad of reasons, mostly ste

    Can you please point out where the post judges people for using screens? I see "don't use screens here", which isn't a judgment of people who use screens, it's just a rule. Your statement, however, is very judgement

    I had low diopter astigmatism and got lazik 6 years ago at 39. I consider it the best decision I've ever made that was just for me. I still have perfect vision, and if it degrades again I will happily get it done again. Just my experie

    Your story sounds similar to mine, and your choice to use HTMX has me motivated to check it out. The sum total of my software supports 5 families' lifestyles entirely on LAMP MPAs with no frameworks at all. Thanks for posting.

    The article starts off with what I believe is a faulty premise, that churn "is" rejection. Trying something new is such a deeply ingrained part of our DNA that there willl always be a segment of your users and staff who do so rega

    For me, coffee tastes far superior when it is much more diluted than "normal". 1 liter French press with 2 tablespoons of grounds. Then put about 2 tablespoons of this liquid with 32 oz of ice water. It should now look like light

    For my use case, I ended up converting the PDF to a single png image and then use Amazon Textract on it. This allows me to easily convert pdf tables into csv files all from within php. Would love to find a cheaper (local) option vs AWS, bu
