    Just last week I vibed an .eml viewer that uses WebView2 and can confirm that it's very quick when not encrusted with garbage. https://github.com/efsavage/WinEML Also a daily Fastm…

    A 70% take would have blown the minds of developers pre-Steam. Retailers took 40% and were ruthless about shelf space and inventory. Distributors took 20%. Plus you had to actually…

    I'd argue that they're above average for the population, and below average for experts. Can they draw as well as an expert/professional illustrator? Probably not. Can they draw bet…

    > “good enough” for 95% of use cases Maybe, for current use cases. I'd argue that anyone who thinks they can do everything a 10kW server can do on their 10W device just isn't being…

    Yegge's list resonated a little more closely with my progression to a clumsy L8. I think eventually 4-8 will be collapsed behind a more capable layer that can handle this stuff on …

    Those are all great things to do, but I don't think OP needs to do more things, they need to do different things. The biggest thing that jumped out was that they know they need to …

    The water argument rings a bit hollow for me not due to whataboutism but more that there's an assumption that I know what "using" water means, which I am not sure I do. I suspect m…
