I've been really enjoying using DMS as a daily driver. I had been partial to Cosmic DE, but the overall visual appearance, pace of development, and ecosystem around DMS made me switch.

This looks really cool and more modern than Nextcloud. From the homepage, I was a little wary of the idea of hosting my own email server -- doesn't that require a ton of effort due to spam? Or can I use it with an external provider and

Why does he have to use a hex editor for this, can't you just edit the menu directly in ResEdit?

Also, other characters in XR have predilection to say stuff like "You can't make it spicy enough for me!" and “Holy moly, Stromboli!”

It incentivizes you to continue saving the principal, rather than dump it into house. For others, higher rates disincentivize taking marginal credit card debt and large mortgages. Fewer businesses will get credit and will have less to spend

Such a cool project! Also the example conversation in the screenshot is hilarious.

There's so much potential for this as a tech powering all sorts of products, I hope it doesn't just become some Tarsnap type thing. (judging from initial site)

Agree with this. There isn't really much challenge in managing the city itself after a certain point. You're just expanding.

Loved Tom Cunningham's internal posts when I worked at Meta, great to see he has public blog!

Can Chrome just hurry up and add those so we can be done with Electron?

It doesn't make sense because the barrier to "apphood" in whatever Chrome defines to be an app is scarcely more than making a manifest. The distinction between a chrome app and a webpage is very minimal. What user problem is

I was there 2016-2022. The hiring boom in 2020 was definitely palpable. Entire vast orgs of teams who had no context on the problem they were solving, previous efforts, etc, because they were all so new.

Tech money should be flexed in politics more. We’re paying taxes too, right?

Yes, Haney was originally very NIMBY in his politics but has become more moderate.

I was a PM at Meta from 2016-2022. I work at a startup now and have to write detailed specs and deal with lots of small details —- something I was discouraged from doing as I rose in rank at Meta and scarcely did after the first year. Looki

It would be funny if, after years of research, that was the only condition it exhibited such behavior under. “Sooooo what fields should be (hiccup) required for users to register an account? Which version of React did you want it written in

That's pretty good!

This was counter-intuitive to me too! I was recently playing around with some of the LLMs that can run on consumer hardware (via KoboldAI, RWKV, etc) and, boy, are they not as good as ChatGPT despite consuming all my Mac's resources. M

This misunderstands the management that happens in companies. Of course you need to sort through goals, figure out priorities, get groups to align on key decisions, monitor them, direct resources towards them, and have people who can do unp

The writing here reminds me a bit of that of a friend who succumbed to schizophrenia. Just unconnected word salad. What did I read?

My undergrad intro class used this. At the time I found it patronizing and silly and artificially limiting, having coded before (the design recipe, the different "levels" of scheme). But I saw some of the wisdom in the approach wh

This was what I thought when I was an angsty engineer in early 20's, and I guess what motivated me to become a PM, where I realized it wasn't true. Doing the PM job well -- being rigorous about the product, its goals, its strategy

It's really good! I like that the zoning is more realistic and the finances seem to make more sense (e.g. when you hit $0 cash you start borrowing automatically, rather than having to explicitly take out a loan, and also you have to pa
