A couple years ago I upgraded my desktop hardware, which meant it was time to upgrade my homelab. I had gone through various operating systems and methods of managing my services: …

I recall in the early or mid 2000s using some cheap earbuds plugged into the microphone port of my family computer as a pair of microphones in lieu of having a real microphone nor …

I've been wondering for a long time when we might expect to see a stable WebGPU API in all major browsers (mostly concerned with my daily browser, Firefox), so I've been looking fo…

I've also been using it for several years and almost completely agree with your sentiment. The only areas that have given me trouble are in the dev tools. On my machines the debugg…

Correction: The chart I'm talking about has multiple names, but is not a simple pie chart. Thanks to funcDropShadow for pointing this out. The names: sunburst chart, multilevel pie…

A pie chart could serve a similar purpose, but can be much easier to interpret. I like this interactive pie chart for profiling Webpack bundle size. I've used it several times at w…

My designers take their own snapshot by cloning their work and using versions in the names of things. Older things are not to be modified with few exceptions. It makes for a good l…

The content of the series describes creating something like the beginnings of a Deno alternative, upon which the reader could fully recreate Deno or Node.js. It seems to me that th…

I have memories of illegal immigrant workers from longer than 22 years ago and the USA has had immigration laws for much longer than 22 years. Have I misunderstood your statement?

My android phone's apps must ask for permission to use some of this data (location, microphone, filesystem, etc.), and android provides the options "always", "only when using the a…

Over the last decade or so I've switched between Kodi (even back when it was XBMC on a literal Xbox [the original]), Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin; currently settled on Jellyfin for may…

I haven't used fp-ts directly, but I use an adjacent package that declares fp-ts as a peer dependency: io-ts. I've almost exclusively for easier type management during deserializat…

This is correct, but I think the point nickdandakis was trying to make is that useEffect does not directly correlate with componentDidUnmount because useEffect's returned callback …

For the last few months my team and I have been working on standing up a system of libraries that other teams in our organization will use. From the beginning we decided that docum…

I might be remembering the timeline wrong, but I was perfectly happy using Firefox when I first heard of Chrome. When I switched from Firefox to Chrome I was very impressed with th…

> Calls are end-to-end encrypted and use a direct connection between the peers whenever possible, but fallbacks are also in place. I imagine this means the 2+ clients use XMPP to n…

I've found that code colocation is great, especially combined with a directory structure that mimics the application's hierarchy/layers. At my place is employment we try to follow …

Upon initial login I'm definitely impressed by the interface, the existing content, and the potential to finally brush up on my Japanese. I ended up linking to my Google account, b…

After going through the "Git Internals"[0] docs, I found that the snapshot mental model has been much more helpful in understanding what my Git commands are doing, how someone's hi…

I've tried using Amethyst a few times but never finished anything. Upon each attempt I ended up moving to another language/framework due to the frustration of horrible compile time…

I performed a similar experiment in high school (~2007) but stored it in a plastic bag. After a few months it smelled absolutely horrible so I wrapped it in more bags and kept it h…

I came here to say the same thing. I also just hated worrying about which hairstyle to get, how to maintain that style, and when to repeat that process. Now it's a cheap and simple…

Later levels validate against multiple exits and won't let you remove the original exit, so it seems intentional.

I used to have trouble waking up too. What worked for me was having a strict morning routine that I followed the moment I woke up. I found that sleeping 10 or 12 hours wasn't unint…

Makes me wonder how many of those guides have been paid for, or at least what level of influence advertisers have on them. Nevertheless, I agree that a quality guide is well apprec…
