Nor Firefox on Windows, nor Chrome on Windows. Very confused about what I'm supposed to be seeing here lol.

I am similarly very confused. Tried in multiple browsers, including a stock chrome install where I haven't messed with any animation settings.

> the killer feature that kept me on Firefox precisely, I do occasionally have to switch browsers which is incredibly frustrating but that's more of an indictment of the current st…

Great to see this feature being added to other browsers. I use the Firefox Multi-Account Containers, Temporary Containers, and Containerize extensions to manage my browsing and it'…

I still regularly visit TheGearPage forum for musicians (mostly guitarists), and it's still active. There's also Hardforum for hardware related discussions, though I don't visit as…

What are you using for cell service? Been wanting to switch to GOS for years, but I've also been really uninterested in having to find a new service provider (currently using fi).

Deeply sickening that modern society is such that we have to make room in our brains for objectively outlandish connections like these. That a children's cartoon and game about cut…

> storytelling “My Journey” type stuff This is the stuff with which I struggle the most. I'm an introvert, and "my journey" sounds so insufferable and egotistical to me, I physical…

I am miserably bad at soft-skills interviews and never get past this round. Been over a year since I've had somebody actually try to assess my technical competency in any real capa…

when I first read "orbital slingshot" in the title I thought it was a game about doing gravity assists, which I think would be much more interesting and fun

Who is the other?

I use 12 columns so I can still do this 1/3 - 2/3 split, but other proportions as well. I tend to have a chat app on the left quarter, browser in the middle half, and a music app o…

Excellent post that actually gets into important details for real-world applications. I'm a huge fan of the design of Litestar. > I also still think there are a lot of bad use case…

It's downright awful and I'm having a hard time imagining the author proof reading their own page and thinking "yeah, that's great". As an aside, I have an article in my blog that …

Completely agreed. The codebase I work on really badly abused multiple inheritance all over the place. Some of our classes are 5+ layers of inheritance deep. All the code I've writ…

No problem. Also, hello Denver neighbor! Cheers, best of luck.

heads up, your resume link is a 404

I know, I'm just complaining about the mountain of code that does this at my company. And there is no fixing it using the article's approach or any other for that matter due to the…

Everything in the codebase I maintain at my job is an arbitrary dict and there is no type information anywhere. It wasn't even written that long ago (dataclasses were a thing long …

Who's it for, then?

yep, the legacy codebase I maintain does a lot of this kind of stuff and has made it difficult to write unit tests in some cases due to all the code that runs at import and all the…

Not having subdomains work for container assignments is a baffling design decision. It's a well-known issue and oft-requested feature that the devs seemingly have no plan to fix. I…
