Yep! There are probably issues with this setup, but I wrote a small plugin to allow them to work in the same repo, sharing the same express instance: https://github.com/coxmi/astro…

I bundled it with esbuild for an astro/payload monorepo setup and it worked fine.

Great to see 2.0 launching, there’s some really great stuff in here! Very exciting to see open source alternatives to the other headless content management systems that put develop…

I’d wager that’s more to do with raising finance than organisational productivity, but I’m not aware of any actual research on something of that scale or even how to accurately stu…

I’m not convinced this is inevitable, but it certainly feels it within the current system. Co-ops exist and can be very successful. Hierarchies can be time-limited, or democratical…

Something along the lines of: A socioeconomic order centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange that allocates products to everyone in t…

It’s harder to get finance as a co-operative, so it’s hardly a fair competition. Also, in most studies, co-ops and employee ownership models do actually end up being more profitabl…

Thanks, I’ll give it a read

Nice site/typography! The bold and italics look like they’re being applied in browser though, rather than specific faces. And it’s calling out for some small caps for acronyms like…

Roads were often made of wood blocks, so maybe that’s an option here too?

In more political phraseology, that would be tyranny rather than anarchy (that is, without hierarchy)

> broadly the analysis results in better outcomes or else there would be no economic incentive to facilitate medical research This is true to a degree, but outcomes for real health…

Both can be true, and greater systems of medical research and analysis don’t necessarily lead to greater on-the-ground treatment. As you’ve pointed out, access to those information…

How do you structure the 2 hour session? Would be interesting to hear which kinds of tasks you use in a short space of time.

Thanks, I appreciate your response, and agree on many of your points. > whatever happens with the dollars and financial instruments you ignore, and you take a pure look at the real…

Apologies here, my previous comment was a little flippant (I was at the pub…). There's absolutely an argument here that rents, as a basic dead-weight cost of all people within a so…

I think one of the options here is to remove the standing charge, making pricing reflect usage — higher energy users will get a sudden disincentive to use the same level of energy.…

Exactly, it’s redistributive to the public good. That is, productive.

Again, there’s the idea that wages and businesses produce nothing. They don’t.

I feel like this kind of zero-sum argument does the rounds quite frequently. The reality is that housing is the main mechanism used by the older wealthy folk for their pensions, an…

Can we not just have something like: a { &:hover {…} &:parent(.theme):hover {…} } No crazy selectors with an ampersand in the middle allowed, but a way to apply a parent or ancesto…

A favourite of mine was something along the lines of: Short circuit; a man, thinking peas would increase his virility, shovels them straight into his lap
