I'd be interested to understand how this compares with a solution like openfreemap's ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41635592 ) which was posted a few weeks ago. What is it that sets this apart from other sim

My guess is the roast version looks at the repo details/descriptions (or at least a few of them - which is why the reply seems much more specific/cutting) where as far as I can tell the praise version here only looks at readme&#x2

Hard to tell from the article if this is something specific to "social media" scrolling, or (as my guess would be) just a finding that reading via scrolling is potentially bad for your eyes. Be interested to understand if other wa

Maybe it's a tech company thing but we were using irc for years before slack came about. We eventually swapped to hipchat as it was easier for less technical people to join, and later slack when that shutdown. Almost every open source

Sounds like a good few of the directors were much old than that. > One listed director — at 942 years old — would have been born in the 11th century.

Honestly, in my experience most the "good" PHP jobs tend to end up in the start-up space, where pace of development/sheer ability to get stuff done (PHP's strengths) are the primary drivers. As you move to bigger compani

I don't really see what the risk is. So far as I follow the ultimate threat from the mods is that if reddit makes the proposed changes to the API, they'll stop modding. Given the changes will take a way a lot of the tools larger s

It does seem like most studies show WFH workers being happier/healthier/more productive. Wouldn't necessarily take that as conclusive, but i've certainly not found much evidence beyond random anecdotes saying the opposit

I've used PASETO in place of JWT for this kind of thing before. Interested to know how it compares. Does this support a known standard, or is it just its own thing.

Dyslexic's of the world untie! I actually think a lot of people underestimate quite how many dyslexic people are about in industries you wouldn't expect them. I work in software development for instance and have worked with vast s

I'm always disappointed there is no standard for just sending markdown emails. They work fine as plain text, are future proof & any can easily be styled up an email client to fit with the rest of its design. Always a shame to have

As a plex plugin? Be very interested to have a play once you release, been hoping for something along those lines for a while :)

I had exactly the same thought when I popped over to have a look at their readme. It's odd they don't mention it at all, as at face value it appears both Plex and Streama are both solving the same problem. Would also have been int

The camel casing comment confuses me? There is nothing stopping anyone from using var x = my_function(); instead of var x = myFunction(); if that's what they want to do?

This is pretty much my point of view. How new or buzz-wordy a bit of technology is, isn't really the issue. It's whether or not the thing in question will allow you to end up with a simpler solution. Simplicity and supportability
