As a maintainer of a different library, I think there’s something here. A revised version of this tool that also gets fed the docs and asked to find inaccuracies could be great. Even if false positives and false negatives are let’s say 20%

Yeah, I don't think the 12" MacBook was anywhere near the most controversial, because it was always clear that it was a niche product. I had one and loved it. Those who it wasn't right for didn't buy it. The 2016-2019 Pr

Not sure which version was more popular, but I bought a red/blue switch on launch day. And anecdotally I'd say I've seen more of those than the grey one over the years.

Macs used to have good font rendering on Low-DPI displays (I would say the best, but I suppose that’s a matter of opinion) Then Mojave switched to Metal and removed subpixel AA, and now it’s the worst. Thread from when it happened: https:&

cracking everything wide open for 5 minutes doesn't have too bad of an effect on temperature in my experience, and gives you good air for a few hours.

CO2 Monitor to let me know when I need to let some new air into my office. Mine is a TFA Dostmann 31.5009, but any model with an NDIR sensor should be fine, there are many choices around 70-150 EUR.

Same but Astro on Vercel's free tier. If my traffic suddenly spikes 1000000x, my site might go down temporarily. That's ok. Paying $400/year to get some static html based on markdown for a personal website seems insane to me.

I'd suggest to not put a bunch of 4chan memes in your product demos.

Shouldn't be too difficult. The main thing you'd need is a dictionary that's as close as possible to covering the entire language (ie a digital-first one rather than a digital representation of a paper dictionary), and at lea

When language learners learn vocab, there are two main processes: 1. Use a premade list of the top x words. Pro: they are guaranteed to be common words. Con: Once you make it past 2000 or so, they might not show up depending on what sort of

The exciting thing to me is that if there is enough demand, someone can make a keyboard module without having to make a whole laptop. Thinkpad-style? Sure! Ortholinear? Why not!

Given the title I was expecting some kind of surprise, but everything works exactly as you would expect.

According to many commenters in the linked thread, it's fixed in MacOS 13.2.1. Not great that it happened at all, but good to see that it was a software issue.

CS50x and CS50web are fantastic. web is a bit outdated but it doesn't matter because the projects are so good.

I got a bit frustrated at YouTube dev videos being aimed primarily at entry-level developers, so I tried to record some more mid-level content. There is definitely room for improvement on the production values, but hopefully the content its

tRPC is awesome, but it will teach you about typescript wizardry and how to write a library, not how to write an application.

I need to use PHP at work sometimes. After working in it for a while I still don't love the language and would never pick it for a project myself, but it's overall decent a few quirks aside, and I think a lot of people have built

I use Framer on some projects and I love its declarative approach to creating nice animations. It allows someone like me who doesn't know much about the topic to create really nice experiences. But one thing that has been confusing me

This looks great, and I remember seeing Jalup a few years ago. I'm alright at the language now (N1 a year ago, 50+ books read, etc) and so deep into Anki at this point that I doubt I'll ever transition away, but I could see recomm

How many stars were you at when this began to happen? I maintain a repo with 8k stars and so far we've not gotten a single PR that felt like it was in bad faith - even with the hacktober fest tag.

Of course it's _possible_. If you go deep enough, React is just vanilla JS after all. The question is how fast a team can build and maintain something with each method.

Yeah, I think people who pretend that modern FE is possible without React or another similar framework haven't built a modern frontend and dealt with all the demands for interactivity that users have nowadays and the complexity this br
