I feel like this is a pretty big fumble for Anthropic. I don't mind waiting 30 minutes or so for a service that's having issues. But, around the 2 hour mark, I start researching al…

Elixir compiles to Erlang, I think.

Yeah, I had heard about Renovate supporting Bun. I guess I was reluctant to start working with another 3rd party dependency management system when I already knew how to setup and u…

Bun seems really compelling. I tried it out for a couple of small example projects and I like the speed and the fact that it combines package management and a JS runtime. However, …

I really like using Tailwind. But I mainly only use it for personal projects. I have some design and front end development background and I feel comfortable creating a design syste…

Even for a Teenage Engineering product, I have sticker shock over this and their field mixer. They're nice products, but the premium is so high. I mean, I kind of get it. Their ori…

Yeah, I have a BlueBox and it works great. You can also add tactility with an external controller like: https://intech.studio , and you're still in the ballpark of like half the pr…

Lol. Yeah, sorry. I'm not sure how well it works on mobile. I kind of wasn't sure if anyone would ever actually see it.

More of a landing page than anything, but... https://elliot.la

I agree with @tinco. If you're doing Ruby development that is not Rails, you probably want to create a gem with Bundler. I'd check out their documentation on the subject which has …

I find comments like "I've been using forever and never noticed problem" a little annoying. But, I fall into this camp here. I'm not trying to dismiss other people's criticism that…

Yeah, no kidding. Nap seems like an ironic name. Punching up the contrast a bit would be a good idea

Okay, well figma one out and get back to us

I totally agree with this. This may be an unpopular opinion, but I feel like Electron is really helping here. I've been a Mac user since 2003, but built an Ubuntu based desktop rec…

It would be cool to see a comparison between this and existing libraries like p5.js.

I started messing with Heroku back when they were trying to be an online Rails editor. When they started getting more seriously into hosting I was relieved to have a company dedica…

Ah, okay. Those are fair points.

I don't know. It's so easy to just create a random Gmail address and forward email from it. Maybe this makes it easier, but Gmail is one of the few Google products that I feel pret…

I don't think that's entirely accurate. Lots of Rails users went the SPA route the second stuff like Backbone came out. Wycats was big in the Rails community at this time and he sp…

I realize he had bigger, more mainstream roles that he'll be remembered for. But the most iconic for me was, Blair, in The Thing.

Right. I've been a long time vim user and I don't really use the escape key while vim-ing. I use ctrl+c.

As a long time Ruby developer I frequently hear older developers talking fondly about their experiences working with Smalltalk long ago. When I saw this post, I was curious enough …

Yeah, to me it's noticeably different. But, like I said elsewhere, I think I might be a resolution snob.

This is the first thing I noticed when I opened it up. Whoa, fuzzy text, no retina support? I'm guessing this isn't important to the Pharo developers, or at least, it isn't a top p…
