I built this using Cloudflare workers and https://usetrmnl.com/framework/ and I gotta say I love how it ends up looking on the TRMNL device. Sadly Strava seems to be returning inco…

What you say and the math does not agree. Do it 10x and in your scenario already 1TB is consumed of those "hundreds of TB of writes".

> Cucumber In every project that I've seen using it, it was a tremendous unnecessary waste of time in comparison to writing feature/acceptance tests just in Ruby. Gherkin is just s…

What about MP3, MP4, H264 etc? Aren't they good examples of successful formats despite the necessary licensing fees etc?

Is it more expensive than keeping an office for entire year, though?

What's the source of this claim, especially the "still" part. I could never find newest data which would confirm it easily.

Exactly same experience. Hearing disabled and using subtitles whenever I can. The generated ones are not good at all. The more unusual wording (i.e. full of technical terms or cust…

I guess most people don't know what color blindness feels like. Obviously, I can only speak for myself, so YMMV. It's not that the colors are indistinguishable per se, always. They…

As someone with colorblindness who often struggles with reading colors on maps, this would be a lifesaver if used. I love it.

I would rather argue that we make scientific discoveries to predict the future and minimize surprises. The discoveries themselves are often indeed surprising. But once we understan…

I would summarise it as: use separate keywords instead of sentences. "Change Light Bulb" instead of "how to change a light bulb". "Black Science Guy", "Kevin Durant height", "rails…
