I think it’s less about being able to spend the money (of course you can) than needing to spend it. Do you really need a 100-million yacht and a 20-bedroom villa? No.

There’s a solution to this problem: https://github.com/sindresorhus/hide-files-on-github Additionally, your OS probably already natively hides files that start with a dot, so this …

I recently dropped my last shared hosting in favor of Vercel/Netlify and some content was lost. This solution wouldn’t work for me because the very reason why the content was lost …

Disability isn’t a choice

WordPress does this by default and that’s the most common platform to date. I’d dare to say that most websites have those attributes, but most SPAs don’t, because that’s too hard.

The attributes are overridden by CSS. You should have: max-width: 100%; height: auto; What the other user is talking about is a new feature that FINALLY uses the attributes to pres…

I hope you don't use that since it randomly returns either an element or a list of elements, so you'd have to also add an if/else every time you use it. This is my go-to: const $ =…

It's up to you to chose reasonable modules by reasonable developers. Notice I didn't call it a library, it's a 1kb module that has the code from the example + fixes you'd want anyw…

I would never recommend copy-pasting this code into your project: https://htmldom.dev/copy-text-to-the-clipboard I get "trying to stay vanilla", but any reasonably-common snippet s…

Which link are you more likely to click on? - GitHub satanically messing with Markdown - changes 666 to DCLXVI - GitHub changes numbers to Roman numerals in lists I’d call it funct…

With GitHub templates and npm’s init/create packages you already have options without having to use an editor. Examples: npm init esm npm init react-app https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/…

That’s why you should put a pass phrase on it. Firefox syncs my passwords but has to ask for my master password at launch. Same goes for Google Chrome’s passwords: they’re encrypte…

For those who are more familiar with npm, there are two packages for this by Sindre Sorhus. You can run them without preinstalling them with npx, if you wish: npx speed-test npx fa…

This is the same exact comment I see on most HN posts about services. Probably most people’s time in maintenance and development is worth more than $9/month, that’s why these servi…

eval doesn’t work with some CSP settings, the article mentions this and other limits of previous solutions.

> This doesn't scale easily when you consider the volume that places like NPM have. Found the blanket statement for npm. How about instead of reviewing 1 library of 10k lines that …

What percentage of the population speeds vs what percentage has track days? Surely those who have track days can disable the limit or buy a car without it, while the vast majority …

We had a million years to grow up, I don't think we'll ever get there (without drastic measures a la 1984, if you wish)

ML generates some rather bad artifacts. Just look for those. Even in this[1] difficult comparison you can see the non-human repeating skin patterns on the right and the awkward tee…

Give up. There’s too much content, you obviously can’t handle it all. Just acknowledge this and just enjoy what you can. A few years ago I thought I could get through my to-read li…

I recently flushed years of Google history but I kept the tracking enabled. I’ll keep flushing it regularly and you could do the same. I don’t really care that they track me for a …

Games are not just about a ball moving. People attach feelings to players and teams, especially if they’re from their city. A computer match wouldn’t have either

Isn’t macOS doing that? The Mac App Store only allows sandboxed apps and macOS allows almost only apps from the store to be installed (+ certified developers) unless you change the…

I call about 2 hours a week and still manage to use my phone more than 20 hours a week. Is calling still the primary function of my "phone"? We just call it phone because that's wh…

Nitpick: They don't "use WebKit" but Safari itself. They can only offer "web views" (which are always just Safari) Edit: maybe this isn't entirely correct, Apple calls them WebKit …
