A single counter example: In East Bay CA. I designed and built my 9kw solar roof installation myself. No electricians at all. The process was very easy and working with my city and…

Yes apparently so: my customer is a very intelligent research director at a well known company. He was very excited to tell me about going "headless", and I was very confused for a…

My clients and colleagues are bragging about "headless web sites", by which they mean "sites built without WordPress (and kin)", by which they mean "sites built entirely using the …

Downvoted for breaking this guideline: "Don't be curmudgeonly. Thoughtful criticism is fine, but please don't be rigidly or generically negative." The "It's clickbait" comment at t…

Agreed within the narrow confines of web dev (which is all that I do). I used to write 500-1000? LOC per day but now I've built several full fledged (250k+ arr) sites with more fea…

Thank you for this post! 1) I've been considering Zed for a long time, but it hasn't worked well in my KVM. Due to the poor(?) ability to pass GPU through on my Ubuntu 24.04 machin…

I call this the "Everything in Moderation" fallacy. From what I've heard people who say it, they emphasize the everything part of it. In other words almost everything is bad for yo…

Respectfully disagree. An AI with full access to robots could do everything on its own that it would need to "survive" and grow. I argue that humans are actually in the way of that…

For sure! But just for reference, I'm on a mid-tier 2022 Dell Inspiron laptop: Ryzen 7 5825U with 64GB ram and 500GB SSD. On it, I run Ubuntu 24.04 as my host, and my guest is Lubu…

I'm surprised to see so many people using containers when setting up a KVM is so easy, gives the most robust environment possible, and to my knowledge much has better isolation. A …

For anyone else on the fence about moving to CLI: I'm really glad I did. I am converting a WordPress site to a much leaner custom one, including the functionality of all plugins an…

The status quo system you describe isn't objectively optimal. It sounds archaic to me. "We" would never intentionally design it this way if we had a fresh start. I believe it is th…

Is Ubuntu 24.04 supported? (Docker Desktop doesn't support 24.04 currently)

Bulma.io layout is broken in landscape mode on my phone (responsively and full page refresh) with several sections going beyond the edge of the page. Firefix on Pixel 7. I'd love t…

For a far more in depth look into high intensity gardening, with real data and realistic expectations, I strongly recommend John Jeavons: How to Grow More Vegetables: Than You Ever…

I'm experiencing the same massive pain point from Twilio. Our business sends survey links to about 300 people a day who have all opted in. We've been doing this for 7 years. Our un…

Can you please point out where the post judges people for using screens? I see "don't use screens here", which isn't a judgment of people who use screens, it's just a rule. Your st…

I had low diopter astigmatism and got lazik 6 years ago at 39. I consider it the best decision I've ever made that was just for me. I still have perfect vision, and if it degrades …

I really like the concept and experience even though I almost missed out! I thought it was _only_ available as an app when I loaded the page on my phone. I rarely (basically never)…

Your story sounds similar to mine, and your choice to use HTMX has me motivated to check it out. The sum total of my software supports 5 families' lifestyles entirely on LAMP MPAs …

The article starts off with what I believe is a faulty premise, that churn "is" rejection. Trying something new is such a deeply ingrained part of our DNA that there willl always b…

I'm not sure why others downvoted this comment, but I did so because of the bit about "resistance to censorship ... Hash power" is so incredulous to me as to approach a dangerous l…

I would really like to know why this comment was down voted. It is a perfectly valid question with a rational explanation. Indeed, I was surprised to have needed to scroll down so …
