It was incredibly easy to get upload credit for seeding freeleech torrents (which included 10-20 albums of staff picks once a month or so) or re-encoding releases that were missing v2 or 320 encodings and scripts would pick up the releases.

Can’t wait to read the posts on moltbook from the AIs who had the poor luck of working in Xcode.

And Python failed at that decades ago. People push terribly complicated, unreadable code under the guise of Pythonic. I disagree with using Pythonic as reasoning for anything.

They have their own app. It’s pretty minimal but it does save your spot.

This is a great command everyone should know. We once had a long running database query that was blocking a pipeline (code was written in a week and of course became integral to operations). Ran it, 15 minutes of thinking, added a new index

Definitely a little more ergonomic than type box, imo, but at the end of the day they’re very similar. I use typebox mostly because there is terrible zod support for Fastify. Both are great libs!

You can do Non-Union OSS as a US company as well. I’d say the most annoying thing about the EU is their minimum transaction to start filing is very low compared to US Nexus rules.

I’m not sure if I’m in the minority here but Matlab levels of tooling is an insult. Their guides were always two or three steps before being useful. Just enough to make you think whatever they were selling would solve your problems but neve

I'm about to start the leet code grind for interviews coming up and I'll give this a shot. I found your feedback form on your website but would be nice to post it in your post here as well. Cheers.

I haven’t thought about this before but is this why drug names are so semi random? I always through the fake names were trying to invoke some similar idea to their name but is it basically just for SEO type purposes?

Beautifully put. Many metrics suffer from the glass half full vs half empty, perspective! They're just numbers at the end of the day. The important part is how you let them inform you. It is so easy to have the number goes up === good

This is awesome! I would love a GeoGuessr style gameplay element and watch my design friends compete over a couple of beers!

For me it’s mostly how slow some people talk. This is especially true for some content when I can understand it at a higher speed, for example Dota replays. I feel like I’ll get more out of the time watching two in the same when I can under

Thats ironic to hear since every issue I've had with apple products over the last few years were only fixed due to class action lawsuits. Damn the Butterfly keyboards to hell.

You're right my local bodega has been running out of chips and cookies at an alarming rate. Things are getting dangerous out there.

Everyone in the entire chain. From artist to venue to promoter/booker to ticket platform. None of them want to refund. Not just for the obvious, but they make a killing selling ticket insurance.

I learned how to program by writing auto buyers, bots that would buy specific items that had a higher value on the secondary market, for Neopets. I believe the farther I went was deobfuscating the API they used issuing points for their game

I totally can provide as much info as you'd like about it but would probably be better off forum. Shoot me an email xzel at protonmail.com . Still going to add a bit here but like I said there are so many companies that exist in slight

Gutenberg is attempting to be a Frontend / UI style site editor (example here: https://wordpress.org/gutenberg ). An amazing example of this type of editor is Webflow. Lesser examples include Square Space and Wix. What

Disclaimer: I'm a Wordpress plugin developer and my opinions are my own. This is a really weird offering from Automattic and IMO the price is pretty insane. I would love for Automattic to actually focus on Gutenberg/Wordpress and

Kia and Hyundai have already made that trivial the past few years. At least with the tender to their provider and GPS the robot taxis should be recoverable and disableable.

Comparing Lars to Jimi Hendrix isn't just a stretch, they're lightyears away from each other in skill and in my opinion, musical impact. To be clear I'm a huge fan both Metallica and Jimi. I played drums for about 15 years an

Thanks for the link I guess... I'm not sure why this data is anymore useful alone, like I said, in a discussion about cost of living without cost of health care, taxes, etc. Your response perfectly illustrates my previous point, that h

That thats the case for the US as well. The average salary for US software dev, according to glassdoor, is 88,395/year, which iirc is about the same I've seen form other sources. Everyone working in FAAG is an outlier compared to

I don’t want to speak for him, but to me he’s saying that they’re both actives where you get a euphoria/high. I’d even go a step further and say people who do ultra running are chasing a high and are addicts, albeit very healthy ones,

As someone who was using GeForce during the pandemic it is a great service but janky is an understatement. There are a huge number of common "edge" cases I've run into: getting long passwords into games, passing mac keyboard

As another child comment said this is how Redux with HoC worked a few years ago. It was very common. Imo working with that paradigm was miserable. You would have a mess of withXXXX type of connections. It was like using decorators or mixins
