I used to be all in on Jekyll. Now all I use is Astro + Tailwind + Claude, and it’s magic. No need for a theme with this combination.

I don’t disagree. But nobody should be surprised by everything that’s happening right now. Most people justified their vote by saying he’s either joking or it won’t happen to me or my loved ones and are getting buyers remorse now. There wer

There’s not a lot the opposition can do. Elections have consequences and now people are gonna have to live with it. People stayed home or decided to vote against their own interest. It’s not like there wasn’t a previous track record to comp

In the past I’ve been hesitant about Obsidian, but I tried this with my hugo site (hosted on AWS Amplify) and I’m liking the workflow. I like the fact that it creates a vault for my blog directory and the front matter is shown as properties

I don't disagree with you. Especially the native development limitations. I don't think there's a right or wrong answer here. You just have to adjust your expectations and learn to live with your choices.

Thanks!! I'm usually making this decision because I'm an older developer. I'd rather try making it on my own than having 25 year old manager micromanaging me. At this point, I'd rather switch careers than getting a tradi

I agree with Precision and Probability. I’m a cyclist so I care about the window of time that I’m planning to ride. I use Apollo Weather to plan my weekly bike rides. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/apollo-weather&#x

I went with WeatherKit because it was easy to use. TBH I never paid too much attention to the accuracy since I care more about the big picture. I’ve used many weather apps since I started cycling and learned to live with it. I treat the one

I cycle close to 100 miles per week and a having a good Weather app makes a huge difference for planning my rides. I developed https://apolloweather.com/ after Apple announced it was shutting down Dark Sky. For me the most

This might be a bit of a stretch but I believe native mobile apps is what triggered complexity in web apps. The bar was raised and users were expecting performance and experience equal or better than native mobile apps.

What are your users saying? Especially mobile users. Are they expecting a native experience? Engineering decisions that sacrifice user experience usually don’t have a happy ending. As a native iOS developer the best feedback I can get is wh

I agree with the fact that it's very unlikely that I can develop a mechanical system that would beat algorithmic trading. The good news is that I don't have to. That's why I'm a discretionary swing trader. In my personal

I'm more interested in their pricing structure. Knowing Amazon, will we see something in the line of $0.25 per repo plus bandwidth.

The only important indicator on a chart is price, and volume in some cases to confirm price. But all decisions need to be based on price action. Chart analysis is just a tool to read the emotions of other traders, that’s it. Think about it,

I think 40 lines of code for a controller is overkill. The goal is to make them manageable without sacrificing readability. In my opinion the data source and the delegates should be in the controller because it makes the code easier to read

Copy/Paste is OK as long as you understand the code. If the code is elegant and you know what's happening there's no need to change it. I would argue that the problem is not the copy/pasting but where to paste the code.

It's not arrogant. His point is that other people has been using his code since he was very young an therefore he's helped a lot of people. Being a doctor or lawyer takes a long time and at his age he would still be in school. It's not that
