I recently tried the X API to fetch the latest tweets about a given topic, and I spent ~1$ in one go just to retrieve them and some additional info about the users. This is ridiculously expensive. So I can only be happy that such service ex

ts is superset of js, so I wouldn't say you avoid it. It's like saying you run to avoid walking. On the web, I get that CSS is not straightforward, and HTML is not the coolest technology, but by using the canvas you also lose a lo

I don't know. I mean, "never argue" is not a good maxim, imo. But sure, ultimately your role is to provide your opinion as an expert, but you should step aside if your manager decides otherwise after hearing you. I think it&#

Great article! One question: you talk about market size, but you don’t address the existing competition in the space. In my opinion, two equally sized markets can have very different levels of competitive pressure. Is that something you fac

Super interesting! How accurate is the local model to transcribe audio compared to other cloud services? E.g. Google Meet, Otter, Granola, etc.

so does Photoshop and thousand other visual editing tools. Hardly a reason to claim it to be a copy. Also "slopfork" seems harsh considering it seems limited, but well designed imo.

I recently started looking into hydroponics gardening. You can start very easily with a Kratky system and some herbs, and then take it a step at the time. I’m quite at the beginning myself, but I like it so far! It’s a nice mix of science a

yeah good point. I think this is to be seen though. Right now AI tokens, especially via OpenAI/Anthropic subscriptions, are heavily subsidized. If token cost between the API and subscriptions should even out though, then I think Cursor

The premise of Zed is quite appealing, but I'm not sure I'm ready to switch due to the missing extension ecosystem of VSC. For example, at the moment I'm using the Playwright and Vite ones to quickly run and debug tests.

Unfortunately, I think Cursor is making progressively more difficult to use other AI provider via extension, mostly due to the fact that they are reserving the secondary sidebar for their own chat interface. This makes it super unpractical

Can you share what approach you’re taking for this? I’ve tried engaging in a similar way but struggled to strike a balance between helping for the sake of helping (no return for me), and asking research-focused questions, with people not ca

Lot of people sell similar components (or give them for free), but what I would really be interested in is a course how to make them (properly, e.g. with a11y and performance considerations). Especially in your case, since you are basically

I like and believe too the notion that writing IS thinking and that cultivating this skill helps you form clearer thoughts. One question about this: I'm trying to engage more and more in writing for this reason, but I seem often not to

I've experimented with this approach and here are my two cents. I've built an app meant to be "an advanced prompt editor" for working with LLMs ( https://www.quartzite.ai in case anybody is curious). I've

Well yeah, the addictive component is VERY relevant in this conversation. But if: 1) I saw that science states clearly that heroine's addition, harm for my body and for others, are lower than the ones of alcohol's, and... 2) that

Totally a personal decision, but there are a lot of shades of gray while avoiding the black/white opinions. Personally I would recommend anybody to try drinking alcohol and be tipsy/mildly drunk at least once in their life (as wit

I like the article but I don't agree that somehow not drinking gives you a more real/unfiltered view of reality (and maybe sufferance as the author describes). Personally I don't love the narrative of the "pure" or
