Felt this in my bones. It’s painful how accurately this describes my current work situation. The pressure comes from the top - leaders that have no idea what they want but they want _something_ to happen NOW. This has only gotten worse with

I also feel this, and it also troubles me. Unfortunately, we may be in the minority on this site. What the other replies seem to overlook is that it fundamentally changes the nature of the work - it’s not the next step in the evolution afte

The test suite explicitly verifies the architecture and the data structures used? Depends on the suite, I suppose.

A 50-year-old oak is not just lumber. The fact that you think these are equivalent is a hilarious, classic HN take.

Please note that air quality in an area varies dramatically over time. You are looking at a current snapshot with maps like that. The map linked below has his more historical data and I can see several _weeks_ this past year in my area (whi

Happy Valetudo user for years. It has great integration with Home Assistant, too. Highly recommend.

Same. I was very skeptical when Macrofactor introduced this feature, but have since been incredibly impressed. The ability to give it text alongside a photo and then adjust the results (broken out by ingredients) are critical. I’ve also bee

Absolutely hilarious! I bet you forego using calculators and do all of your arithmetic by hand, too. Such a clever analogy!

I love this essay, and it very closely mirrors my own feelings about the topic. Thanks for writing/sharing it. I’m perpetually bamboozled by my fellow software engineering colleagues who insist on proudly shouting from the rooftops “Lo

Echoing many of the other replies here - my experience has been very different (much better). The web UI is fine and snappy and using Infuse on Apple TV is simply delightful. The server uses file watchers to update the media library very qu

Nice analysis! I still have an original Sega Saturn I’ve owned since 1996 that I fire up occasionally for a nostalgia bomb. The thing still runs perfectly, same as the day I unboxed it! They may have ended up with quite a complex hardware a

Do you use a react component library? If so, which one?

I’m also curious about the answer to this! I noticed similar behavior when opening a Typescript project. Enjoy the low latency, but I’d also appreciate accurate/helpful autocomplete suggestions.

Coffee (even decaf) on an empty stomach can cause irritation for some people. It does for me. You may also have a mild food sensitivity/allergy to coffee specifically. (Yes, testing for food sensitivity is somewhat problematic, and oft

Same. Due to the steady decline in the quality of Google results (even with an ad-blocker), I made the switch. Never thought I would pay for a search engine but my experience with Kagi has been absolutely worth it. I enjoy their product and

Just switched from https://pinboard.in to https://raindrop.io for this the other day. Migration went smoothly and so far the product is a bit nicer.

Love the original KSP! Sad as I am to hear about the delay, I’d rather they take the time needed to polish the game instead of rushing it out the door. Looking forward to the release next year!

I’ve used one for a couple years, and it’s been fantastic. I only wear it at night as a sleep tracker. After the first ~year and a half of use the battery would no longer hold a charge for more than one day, but I got in touch with their su

Looks like this feature may have made it into v2.23.0, behind an env var: https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/blob/v2.23.0/CHANGELOG.md#i... Nice!

I think Pulimi is similar to terraform in that you can use multiple backends for state management, of which their "service" is one[0]. Meaning you could use the CLI backed by an S3 bucket for free. [0]: https://www.pulu
