    Nice, I was looking for something like this. I tried it on Ubuntu but after clicking Capture requests > Launch Chrome, nothing happens.

    It seems very nice, I tried japanese because I'm studying it, but it got difficult too quickly. In particular japanese needs furigana absolutely (the hiragana over kanji) or romaji…

    Crazy nosense change. $100 is damn high and 10K tweets a month is damn low. Even if you were willing to pay, the amount of tweets is so low that it's in fact totally useless.

    It depends on the MVP, but I'd (still?) use the MEAN stack with the latest Angular and Node. Expecially because I made a boilerplate [1] that allows me to start any project faster.…

    Yes I mean failure of the cron script itself. If the EC2 goes down entirely there are other alerts you can set up on AWS, such as Cloudwatch or similar.

    I'm still using the old way: "crontab -e" inside the same EC2 where I run the app. In case of failure I automatically send an email to me. This is the easiest scenario in case you …

    Thank you for this, I always struggled to find an up to date list of UA. If you don't mind, I made a simple Node.js wrapper of this API and released as a NPM package, you can find …

    I thought I was a very tidy person, then I saw this.

    That's smart move imho. Usually engineers and other people that worked at Twitter went through a very strict hiring process. So hiring them is equal (usually) to hiring very skille…

    In Italy a famous news website is using blockchain since 2020 to, I quote literally: "help readers check source of news", "strengthen bonds of trust between its organization and it…

    This reminds me about Black Mirror's White Christmas episode where they create a digital clone inside a white "cookie" and then they use it for receiving tasks such as making toast…

    I got in 2016 the Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air for about ~750$ and I'm still using it today (Ubuntu 20). The design is the most similar to Mac design, but with more ports (:D). When I bo…

    I'm currently in a 6 months streak on Duolingo japanese and this article is actually very useful to understand the difference between ha, ga and he, that I think are the most trick…

    Absolutely agree, but I think we are in the smaller size of the pie. I had for many years a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (4.3' 124mm), super small phone that I loved, then I switched to …

    Oh now I see. I was trying the "cheese burger" from the examples and the results were just Google with no option to veganize. I'd remove that example imho. The cheesecake example i…

    I expected to start from a recipe and then have the veganized recipe. How it works now is a Google search, so I have to find another recipe, if there is. I would skip the Google pa…

    Based on the title I was thinking the product was different. The "veganize" term is misleading here imho. I was expecting that, given a recipe, you replace non-vegan ingredients wi…

    You are absolutely right, I tested in on myself over several years. I want to share my story so far. Since I got a prescription of -4 I was so mad that I didn't want to wear those …

    Totally correct to discontinue the old AngularJS imho. Google, years ago, made one of the best choice adopting TypeScript for its new framework, Angular. I used to code in both Ang…

    It's actually something good (expecially for Google) since the information found is now usually in the results itself instead of inside a website. If you notice, in the last years,…

    Funny that rain is part of the sounds :D. As an italian I'd never thought about adding it. Btw it's sounds amazing, but the sounds are a bit short in length and you can "feel" the …
