I strongly disagree. I knew a number of people who were accepted into those elite schools (two at MIT, two at Harvard, one at Brown). All but one of them were lower-to-lower middle class and only able to attend due to the grants given by th

This is a neat idea. Might even make sense in cases where you actually want the AI bots hitting your site (we want it for our ecom platform, for example) - just serve Markdown content optimized for AI. Be careful not to do this with Googleb

> it's them adding a line item to their AWS bill That's the future Amazon sees too. We just had a week long session with the AWS team and they pushed that to us multiple times.

I second this. I started as an Audioscrobbler user before the Last.fm merger. I have tracked nearly every track I've listened to for 21 years. It's awesome seeing how my habits have changed over the years.

It should be noted here that the daily high for a good 1/3-1/2 of America is below 0C/32F/freezing for a good 3-5 months each year. Our weather varies much more significantly than most (not all) of Europe. Even with Fahr

I'd wager that most agency devs have wanted to do this too. CMS's never work the way you want them to as an dev. Thankfully, the work you have done (along with your competitors) in making headless CMS's viable not just for de

In this case, it actually was due to unknown and unpredictable costs. They were about to start production on S2 when the strikes hit. They delays spiked the costs of an already expensive show (S1 cost an estimated $175M) which made it les

Yeah, I agree. I have a Pixel Watch 3 and generally like the circular form factor. I wish they did more with it at times, but I feel like that's kinda what I'm seeing from the previews in the OP blog post

Personally, it's easy for me. If I get above 10 tabs, I just close them all. I don't see any value in having more than that and they just become a distraction for me. Tree style, sidebar tabs, tab groups, etc. are just overkill fo

It's pretty common for people drive to the bar, get drunk, taxi/Uber/Lyft/DD home, and then return the following day to get their vehicle. I don't think it makes sense personally, but I also don't drink at all

Yeah, I was the same way with my iPod. I was contributing to iPod Wizard and one of the QA testers for iPod Linux, iPod Wiki, and Rockbox. I would install unstable firmwares on my iPod a few times a week and spend a few hours testing. I bri

Yeah, this used to be me. I don't do it anymore but I used to spend a great deal of time playing with beta versions of Android, Windows, Firefox, and various iPod and Mac customization applications. I just enjoyed playing with the new

I think you mean saving a PSD in Photoshop, opening it in ImageReady, slicing it, and then optimizing the slices for web.

I started writing code when I was 12 and started doing it professionally at 22. I'm now in my mid-30s and outside of work, I haven't written anything more than one-off scripts for my homelab in close to a decade. I'm already

I don't often use Sublime for coding nowadays (I'm generally using PhpStorm) but I have it open at almost all times as a scratchpad. It's so dang quick that opening it to jot something down or examine JSON is instant. And so

Firefox on macOS is also completely borked. At least with my freescrolling Logitech Master MX 2. I'll scroll and it will jump the expected amount, I'll scroll some more and it will jump about 4-5x what I expect, and then I'll

This is the real key. They have an awful reputation amongst technical people (for good reason) but that reputation largely fades away the less technical you are. The average person knows them for their effective marketing, seemingly low pri

Wood is incredibly cheap here in the United States. Estimates I have seen in the past is a stone home will cost 15-25% more per square foot than a wood-framed home in the same location. Making it more resistant to earthquakes (a requirement

If you're building a system that sends out emails, you generally can't send emails locally. So you instead use a service like MailCatcher/MailHog/MailPit/Mailtrap as an SMTP server that will "catch" the em

I use Firefox + uBlock Origin for the most part. I also have whole-network blocking via AdGuard running on a Pi. AdGuard also has a hosted option and you can just run it in a Docker container on a machine on the network. I also have WireGua

I'm fairly excited too. It seems the target is "Vercel but for PHP" and the lack of a Vercel/Netlify-style deployment option has pretty consistently been used as an argument against using PHP/Laravel at my agency. I
