It’s a little thing, but one that keeps coming up again and again with new apps, so I thought I’d get down some thoughts about how the origin checks performed by Phoenix to protect websocket connections from cross-site attacks.

I'm excited about this as a way to configure my Fly.io apps in a more declarative way. One of my biggest gripes about Fly.io is that there's a lightly documented bespoke config format to learn (fly.toml), and at the same time ther

My favorite feature is the way source code links are added automatically and consistently. Just look for the little </> links to the right of the module / function / macro name!

I send links to specific lines or chunks of code pretty much every day (using a similar VS Code plugin), usually to show an example of a pattern or show where / how a particular piece of logic is implemented. Or sometimes to give an id

I thought the article was pretty careful to attribute the rise of canning more to psychological factors than to household budgets: In times of economic insecurity like the last recession in 2009, when McClellan started her Food in Jars blo

I always do destructive SQL commands in two steps: first run a select using the WHERE clause you intend to use and verify which records will be affected, then hit the up arrow and edit the beginning of the query leaving the WHERE intact. I

Just because it's not enough doesn't mean it's delusional. I'm a vegetarian partly out of compassion for the animals who might be eaten and partly because of the other harmful effects of industrialized meat production. I

never, ever push changes on a Friday. I think this goes a little too far. I personally push code every Friday morning, and keep my Friday schedule relatively open so I have time to deal with any surprises. Many successful companies brag (

I don't think it's being taught adequately to lots of people who aren't destined for careers in tech or academia. Look at the nearly universal disdain for math and especially "story problems," as well as the mystica

In fact, I'd say the unspoken premise of the article is that economic success equals human wealth. From there, it argues mainly that economic success is increasingly determined by intelligence. Strangely, the article ignores the strong

What about a simple policy of revisiting the salary discussion on a regular (annual?) basis. As long as it's transparent and universal (not just for people who ask for a raise ), it seems like it'd be in line with your philosophy

^^ YES ^^ I live in New Orleans, and this is my chief concern about short-term rentals. The guests can be obnoxious, sure, but that alone wouldn't have made this such a hot city-wide issue. The rental market has been changing very rapi

Third party processors will store the card info securely and then provide only parts of it back to you via an API call. Stripe's API includes the last 4 and expiration date, as you can see here[1], so Fly Maids may not have all of that
