Also, many energy retailers increased the daily 'connection service fee' to compensate. My dad's daily fee went up an extra 55c~, or +$200/year.

I think it's more: AI assisted engineering is a new skill people are trying to develop and we're on this collective experimentation process, working out how to use AI for engineeri…

I have a Mac mini and I put every device that needs access on Tailscale

It’s such a fun time to have 1+ decade(s) of experience in software. Knowing what simple and good are (for me), and being able to articulate it has let me create so much personal s…

I've been doing JS for nearly a couple decades now (both front and back) and I landed on the same approach a few years ago. Pick your absolutely minimal set of dependencies, and th…

This is probably a semantics problem. You’re right. The models don’t know how to mcp. The harness they run in does though (Claude code, Claude desktop, etc), and dynamically expose…

What’s special about front-end developers here?

Taran's Sphere Scripting for Dummies was what taught me how to program as a 14-15 year old trying to do the same thing :)

Essentially, you don’t.

I have a very similar story. I spent many many evenings in my teens learning to “script” with Taran’s Sphere Scripting For Dummies website and .chm file for the Sphere Server UO em…

We used to gargle water mixed with potassium permanganate as children after cleaning our teeth to see if we did a good enough job. It would colour plaque pink, so it was very obvio…

It's the super terse anonymous function syntax. You could use the slightly more verbose version with named instead of positional params or put a named function in there instead.

More that I don't have to force everything into a single file. I think it's more flexible that way. Let's say one day I work static files into my build process I could chuck them i…

I prefer to colocate into 1 folder. index.jsx, index[.css,.styl,.scss, etc.] Just like my JS requires different JS files, my CSS imports various files too. The preprocessor turns t…

I had a similar experience. Between the ages of 14-16 I tinkered on my own sphere shard with a friend of mine. I didn't realise what I was doing was programming until I took course…

Just a quick comment on the spamfest side of things. Disclaimer that I never got into LoL. I've found over the years playing most of the different MOBAs that when I come into a new…

I think the distinction the grandparent made was they would be happy to see the trait in the leader of the country, not that seeing the trait makes a good leader.

If I recall correctly from the last time I had to deal with this, it's the first 3 towns on the Eyre highway in WA coming from the SA border. This[1] suggests there are actually 4.…

I can't speak for the OP, only my experience here. The docs on flux[1] recommend singletons for the dispatcher and stores. If your library is following that recommendation then thi…
