Hasura with graphql code generator is an amazing, type safe, and secure combo. I've never been able to develop a rest API faster, much less with documentation and type safely. It might not be faster than rails/html, but it's

I use it, it's pretty good if you expect your project to grow pretty large. I wouldn't recommend it for something basic. It can get hard to get some things working well. Eg expo, which has a 3rd party package, but it's usuall

That will show em! Look at all the convenience your giving up, just so you can be red flagged.

It's not the same thing. The argument would have to be: violent video games lead to more violent video games, which, anecdotally, I would probably say they do.

Yes, that would be fine. As long as security is covered. Mandating a standard API would be awesome.

It's not just about sugar though. Salt can make you hungry, and more likely to eat more than you should. According to Google, Snickers has 189 mg of salt per 100 grams. Strawberries have 0. https://www.usatoday.com/stor

A) that would be clever, and if the bad guys are that clever, they will easily find another way to share their stuff. B) apple could simply make a policy that your Icloud will trigger a scan / review after x devices are logged into it

A little off topic, but I got a UHK with the trackpoint module. It's been amazing. UHK also has a mouse layer if you don't want the module. Not having to move your fingers off the keyboard is what really saves me time, and has com

I never got the edges and nodes thing, and every time I have worked with a graphql endpoint that did, I was indeed very annoyed. Feels like something that came with a graph database, and people tried to blindly copy it. Graphql code generat

On Arch, my Bluetooth headphones are working great. MPOW-x3 and sony wh-1000xm4 My biggest gripe is that I can't use the microphone at the same time as the headphones, without switching to tin can mode.

I'm a little confused by this article. Around 2010, I separated my shoulder and couldn't move my arm. I went to the er and got checked out. A few days later the insurance company called and said they didn't want to pay for th

Does it though? It doesn't actually say anything meaningful, or insightful. It's just the same tired argument about how apple did something right so they should be able to rent seek forever, and if you don't like it, you shou

I don't know if you're imagining it. But I have had the same feeling that things are going too well for too long, given the circumstances. I'm certainly no economist, but here are the explanations I can think up: 1. We have h

I'm not sure it would. There are other factors besides circadian rhythm at play for night workers. Eg, they probably need money not, or they would be less likely to accept a night shift. Another one is how there is more noise during th

Why is that difficult to say? If I pay for a general computer, I should be able to run whatever code I want on it. Apple should have no say in what I compute.

Nonsense. No where has anyone implied that. Apps should be able to offer a choice of how users can pay.
