   I have found this to be almost universal when it comes to reading / writing documentation, not just Google. I have come to the understanding that to write good documentation, you should write it as soon as you have learned it, or at le

   Thanks for getting back to me. I wasn't expecting a response. As you've mentioned below it is now off which is great. It was just a very jarring, personally I feel its best to allow users to make their own opinions of the experien

   Parasite. The movie (for me) is such a reflection of globalisation, capitalism and the hard truths of the lives of the people at the bottom as well as the top. I really enjoyed its portrayal of class in our modern society and how we, as hum

   I disagree. JavaScript historically has always offered backward compatibility. > Backwards compatibility is important because of the large number of browsers deployed and the wide variety of versions of those browsers [0]. This may be th

   > because research suggests that going to the dark side ain’t all that. So what? It's personal preference. A few studies aren't going to affect how most people rationalise it to themselves, because, who cares?

   The insurance industry in the UK is a great example of this. Manual data entry for claims via the phone and a system called 'TAM'. There are roles such as 'claims handlers' who's job is to repeat what is said over t

   Thanks for the info. I look forward to learning from it. I will try the 'on the job' approach as that's how I learn most effectively. :-)

    I absolutely agree, were it something commercial these things would need to be considered. Are there any tools you recommend looking into, were I to take the next step? I don't plan on depending on CapRover to fill gaps in my knowledge

    This tool looks really cool. The section where it listed reasons for using it really struck a chord with me. I am not the most comfortable using all the Linux tools when it comes to setting up servers / system administration. This prod

    Maybe xfce can see past the trivial issues with javascript for more benefits elsewhere within Gitlab for managing their project(s).

    Thanks for sharing Daniel. I'm not sure if you're aware but netlify and vercel offer free domain hosting for Javascript / JAMstack projects. They both also offer pretty decent free CI/CD workflows, but I'm not sure

    $28M seems like an awful lot for a static site generator. The issue I see Gatsby facing is that the poor developer experience will catch up with them, regardless as to whether they expand their ecosystem (plugins etc). If the developer expe

    My pleasure, Colin. I am too lazy to use brackets and hashes in my writing is all - glad it works for you, regardless. I think from the context of your writing - it was fine. I found it pretty clear it was from your 'personal' vie

    I agree, bear is great. I miss it - I no longer have an iPhone and am Windows dependent :-(. I have made the best use of OneNote as I can - but the ease of categorisation of thoughts within the bear app will always be the best imo.

    Regardless of the dependencies, the point that it is the 'simplest, most elegant way to generate a static version of a React-based website' applies. Next.js is ridiculously simple to get up and running with - even for JS rookies.

    As another user mentioned, Next.js has a 'next build' command that creates a HTML build at build time. But it also provides server-side rendering by default. Next.js also provides a very useful function: getStaticProps. This funct

    I did happen to use that - but when you click on the topics it asks for a log in. I'm not well versed in the financial world so I was hoping this tool would be a little more transparent.
