I wrote this some years back and used it to help me find a job. It is dead-simple and definitely not as fancy as some of the other browsers. But it is purely local and your data doesn't leave your machine.

I’m a little sheepish that this is the highest post on the page. I thought the podcast was interesting and the transcript was pretty readable.

I'm reading the transcript and it's interesting. There must be a transcription process done by someone who is not one of the participants of the conversation. Perhaps automated but (roughly) vetted by a human afterwards. > When

I understand what you are saying about copying someone to learn. I'm just not sure I agree it applies to digital media or bits especially in the exact same context (in response to the same article).

Interesting how the test score is 80% in the twitter thread and 95% in the article.

Love this. That PHP one is a little unnecessarily harsh though.

It's funny you read it that way, you may understand it correctly but I came away with a different interpretation, that they allow-listed the developer's IP and returned good non-phishing-warning responses to the monitoring check,

I agree with what you've said. I like the site and I think it's very nice, but I dislike headshots. https://twostepsforward.co/2015/10/on-web-authorship-trends/

Just a note for anyone else confused by the acronym TFS: I looked it up on Urban Dictionary and it likely means "Thanks for sharing".

I agree with some of your points and disagree with others. The human body is exceptionally awesome, but also so very fragile. I think we can do better with well-thought-out design, and a part of that that I embrace is the value of simplicit

I see your points, and I see the merit of "rewrite syndrome", and lean strongly towards automated-test backed refactoring, and all in all I disagree with your thesis. Sometimes, software patches and new features get tacked on and

I believe that you're seeing the whole article; it is short.

I agree wholeheartedly on the Brooks' "conceptual integrity" thing. I really enjoyed his book The Design of Design. It takes effort to maintain cohesion and sound architecture, but it pays off for future development.

Slightly off-topic, but the original Sound Blaster came with a piece of software called Dr. Sbaitso. It was the first chat bot I interacted with and you could ask him to say swear words and stuff. I had so much fun with that program. https

Thanks for the feedback. I am embarrassed to say it but you asked: I can't read music very well and I like to use NoteFlight to play back scores that I type in to me, so that I can ensure I'm practicing them correctly. That's

(Very amateur musician here.) I've been writing my scores on Noteflight. Does MuseScore do the same and is it a better alternative? Are the two compatible at all? Thanks, hope someone has some thoughts.

Well, if it is as simple as you say, I agree. But I bet that "the structures that are responsible for suffering" is not clearly defined. And who is to say that these structures are not the very ones we need to be researching to fi

I think JPEG is too. In school, we implemented something like JPEG compression using some Fourier transform stuff that reduced the bitmap size by 90%+ and was still fairly decent looking. It was an image handpicked for suitability under com
