I did Moonbase Commander, in JS and HTML canvas. Currently building an AI opponent that doesn't suck as much as in the original. It's amazing that this is possible. I took quite a bit of steering and was definitely not a one promp

Typical HN condescending bitterness at it again. Thank you for this very constructive feedback.

Protip from my side if you're crashing Airbnbs full-time: bring a knife sharpener. I've yet to see the Airbnb that actually had a usable set of knives. Typically all dishes are whatever cheapest you can get at IKEA.

I would write and share more, but the HN tribunal is just too bitter and merciless to expose your weak and vulnerable self to – as the comments on this post perfectly illustrate.

I've come up with this simple bash function for a while already: https://gist.github.com/kschiffer/912d95ca552112820d34f59ec6... Just add it to your shell config (e.g. `.zshrc`) and use it like so: `$ killport 808

I don't even get why people wouldn't use normal GPT API (OpenAI completions) instead. Isn't it exactly the same except that ChatGPT is primed to be more conversational (which in many cases as the one in the OP is just noise a

Anyone remembers the vanilla tailwind implementation? It's called the `style` attribute.

CUBE CSS to the rescue, I guess: https://cube.fyi/ Basically an approach that leverages the advantages of utilities and blocks and embracing the `Cascading` in CSS instead of working around it, like BEM et al. likes to do.

I'm three months into colemak now, together with learning touch typing (and switching to vim as main editor). I've managed to get up to around 50 wpm coming from 75 wpm with normal qwerty without touch typing (just 6 finger freest

Being able to calmly and piecefully experience the many cultural heritage sites, temples and gardens of Kyoto without any foreign tourists was one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences for me (among others).

Terrible news. This framework needs a future!

I guess if the original design was flawed enough to begin with, then obviously people catch up on proper redesigns a lot easier since any good UX work will naturally make them feel more understood by the product. Win3.11 to Win95 springs to

Interesting to finally see some criticism about hooks. The biggest problem I have with Hooks is readability. IMO, functional components with hooks are harder to reason about since they obfuscate logic in a weird react-specific contract. Cla

Fellow (German) Kevin here. I like how this topic is frequently being brought up again in loose intervals as if it is important to remind everyone every once in a while. I can confirm that there is indeed a stigma associated with the name.

Nice article, though I think you should work on your blog's typography. Using a bold typeface for body copy is not pleasant to read.

Been using this for a while due to student-related poorness. Gotta say it does what I want and has helped numerous times also in bigger projects. The low fidelity helps you focusing on gui structure.

I believe in the end it all boils down to the fact that JavaScript is a language that wasn't made for the needs of modern day (web) applications, but since it is still a standard, we need to force it into a form where we can have best

My general distaste for popular culture, I guess… Seriously though: there are of course exceptions, but my experience is that videos with 2+ million views aren't for me, as well as all the videos and channels featured by youtube itself

Very nice, love it! BTW is there any plugin that hides videos with over a certain amount of views? (I know I'm so edgy, right)
