    Use mermaid quite often. It's best for simple flow charts, git flows, etc, but where applicable it is great. It is especially nice combined with mkdocs and the mermaid plugin when …

    Google Maps has lane navigation. IDK what you mean about 'auto' recentering. I think it does this though. There used to be a zoom out/overview feature, but it's def not in Android …

    Fair, but that's a matter of time it seems. I think AV1 is a good bet.

    Not directly right? LIT is based off of WIZ or something like that from google iirc? Maybe I'm wrong here.

    Check out best-buy. They are offering $100 more on lots of pixel trade-ins than the google or fi store.

    do they offer the watch as a free rider where you are? Because ... that's worth 12% and then some.

    Apple has had some equally frustrating and embarrassing misses in their time. No manufacturer is 100%.

    I am biased, as I've had every pro/xl but the Pixel6 and the google nexus phone's prior to that. With that being said i've only had questionable build quality on 2 occasions. The H…

    This is the distinction that people often fail to make or care about when lazily lobbing hate at anything new google creates.

    Agreed. While I like my school getting some pub on HN, it's not the original source.

    This image is helpful to see how they all kinda stack up, feature wise. https://archive.smashing.media/assets/344dbf88-fdf9-42bb-adb...

    "switched to"? There's no full switch to anything. Webp has been around for over a decade. AVIF will probably get adoption as a faster rate in my estimation.

    Ski Goggles are now going to be fashion-forward. Take the back to the future Air Mag shoes with these and you'll complete the fit.

    I was under the impression that their double wide container rig would be at deck level and lashed down to the vessel; not stacked on top of other containers. This is the only way t…

    How do you setup or provision your environment? And what does this environment look like?

    Not used Codespaces, but gitpod.io. What you end up cobbling together to really create a fully fledged environment ends up being what the yaml does for you in a consistent manner. …

    Break? I don't agree. Change, sure. We've had browserify, parcel, rollup, webpack. Then the next wave hit with snowpack, esbuild, vite, lasso, turbopack etc. There's a few that hav…

    I don't think slide toggles are inherently bad, but yes color is your friend and doing them like Material does them is a solid foundation.

    I'm intrigued by the CANOO whenever they start making a consumer vehicle.

    Trust is arguably the most expensive thing in society. For those looking for a fun read about trust read some Francis Fukuyama.

    I have built a social advertising marketplace in another life. It is RIPE with fraud that can be quite difficult to slow or truly stop.

    Hard disagree. You may want a THING, but you don't know about a particular brand or style of said THING. Just by making you aware of them can be a win win. Say you've been research…
