Same. There is huge, real demand for memory and storage everywhere you look. New capacity takes 3-5 years to come online. Every vendor has completely sold out capacity and is backlogged on top of that. This 5-year estimate is actually prett

Over for now , or at least a little while until production ramps up to our new reality (~5 years minimum is likely).

Very true, and ran into this one specifically myself when going down the "HTML can do this!" road. HTML can NOT, in fact, replace a good combobox with search input. Datalist has significant shortcomings. I wound up using a React i

I use Grok 4.5 High Fast in Cursor (Agentic window), and it's a genuinely great model. I don't give a shit about Elon's politics in the same way I don't give a shit about Dario or Altman's politics.

If anyone is looking for a TypeScript framework that embraces hypermedia the same way that HTMX does (and is very easy to use with HTMX), check out Hyperspan: https://www.hyperspan.dev Disclaimer: I built Hyperspan :)

Weird how these streams of immigrants are always young men, and almost never families or groups of women and children actually fleeing some real war or oppression.

If environmentalists and governments really wanted to solve this problem, they would be all in on nuclear energy. It is by far the safest, cleanest, most carbon-neutral form of energy we have that we can produce reliably at volume (base loa

Definitions vary for sure. I just mentioned them because they did well at the box office, which is what will keep "cinema" alive.

Huge props to just sticking with the HTTP spec on this one with `Cache-Control` headers with `stale-while-revalidate` support. It's amazing how many other providers mess that up. On top of that the cache tags are a slick way to do inva

I just say "no, I am opting out" and that's the end of it. They literally don't care.

The phrase "people will not just [...]" comes to mind here. The amount of people that let the TSA take a scan of their face when going through airport security - even when the signage clearly says you can opt out - proves that thi

The dealer issues are true, but we have been very happy with our 2021 Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy after owning it for 5+ years and 82k miles. Budget luxury with pretty good handling and performance. It's a great value package if you n

Cursor did this IDE -> Agents transition very well. Cursor still supports both the IDE and the Agents window, open at the same time, in the same project. I frequently use both and switch back and forth between them. They also link to eac

Speaking of this show... I can't find all seasons of this on DVD/Bluray anywhere. Seasons 1 and 2 can be found if you have the money, but seasons 3 and 4 are nowhere to be found. I loved this show and would like to own physical co

Educated guess on why this is happening: All the people who get free water cups, then fill them with soda. Happens increasingly often now. We are moving towards a low-trust society faster each day.

Agreed on the MCP sentiment, and particularly remote MCPs. They keep themselves up to date with predefined tools, schemas, descriptions of how to use them, etc. where skills tend to be a mess over time, as described in the article. Plug: If

I obviously meant traditional React components, not RSC. RSC can eliminate some client code, but they can be very awkward to use in practice, and lines between server and client get blurry really fast. The mental model is difficult for many

The basic premise of Next is good, but it definitely has more overhead that in should, has odd "middleware", and is very hard to optimize. I view this mostly as a React problem though since any page requires full hydration and shi

Yes. Tax season for small businesses and New Year's resolutions for personal finances are the times I get the largest influx of new signups and subscriptions.
