> I think the problem isn't just that WP Engine doesn't contribute. I read that they pledged to, then had an internal policy not to contribute, and fired an employee for telling th…

Every time I looked at the animated weather app, I would see the animation start in the past where clouds moved and grew and shrank naturally. As soon as it passed the present mome…

I'm using pi-hole, uBlock Origin, and Privacy Badger on Firefox. I checked my network tab before complaining and didn't see any resources that failed to load.

Dark grey #303030 text on slightly darker grey #1B1C21 background is really hard to read. Maybe I'm just getting old, but I also assume the audience for a blog post about the ASCII…

I'm not sure how to use this, I just see a blank screen with the word "delve" at the top and typing doesn't do anything. I'm on Firefox on macOS.

But that doesn't show the first tweet in the thread like in the screenshot. I recommend everyone sharing social media links to see what it looks like in a private browser window, b…

I opened an issue asking them to add `from typing import *` to the boilerplate.

Paperless started as "paperless" but the dev stopped work so another dev forked it to "paperless-ng" (for "next generation" I think). That dev, too, stopped work, so "paperless-ngx…

Transmetropolitan did a story about a woman who was dethawed and society basically told her to get lost. The world she knew was gone and she didn't fit into the one she woke up in.…

You should look into the FitBod app. You tell the app what equipment you have and it does the programming for you, with short videos and text descriptions for form.

What is going on with Michigan's Upper Peninsula? Did anyone at Apple look up there and notice that they paved Lake Michigan?

In December of 2009 my dad died. He was getting the mail, slipped on some ice, and hit his head. He laid there for about 30 minutes before a neighbor found him. He was put on life …
