Hi, as I mentioned, I tried building under Ubuntu, which didn't improve build time that much considering the hardware specs, IMHO. So it does point out to optimizing the build itse…

Thanks, I didn't know about esbuild. I do not look forward to trying a different build system, but might be worth it.

I've been pondering building a dedicated server for my development work. Building a Vue app on my Windows laptop (i7-9750H 64GB RAM) takes ~35s in WSL. I wanted to see if I could i…

Do you listen at >1x speeds? I would also like these for biking but would like to know if quality would be enough for 2-3x

I'm always trying things for this, first WorkFlowy, now: https://gingkoapp.com/ I also tried Notion but it's very slow.

This is how I learned english. I fell in love with computers at an early age and everything from programs to documentation and the few communities were all in english. So I had to …

This. I'd love to be able to actually have dozens of "virtual" accounts that use a single account so I could keep track of what everything is for, but just having a separate accoun…

RubyMine. Went through TextMate, Sublime, vim, you name it. For Ruby development this IDE is superb and a joy to use everyday. Only downside is getting used to it when sometimes it…

Absolutely. I used LastPass for a long time when it first came out. Then I tried Dashlane to see if it sucked less (it does in some ways, but still sucks). 1Password is a joy to us…

At first I did lots of SEO, good page titles, meta tags, links from other sites. It brought modest traffic. Since then I haven't done much but the traffic keeps growing. Part of th…

12 years ago I started a vertical social network for schools. We tried to hustle and visited schools one by one to sign them up. It crashed. Hard. Over time it evolved into a simpl…

Believe it or not, I wasn't familiar with that site... "thank you" ;-)

I'm surprised it's higher than in Mexico. I thought our government liked to screw the corporations big time... Or maybe that's one of the reasons the country remains an underdog?

That is an extremely broad question, and the answer depends on your application. I suggest you outline what type of application you're building and related requirements, and post t…

I kind of disagree. While I agree with your first statement somewhat, I know many programmers who can express themselves pretty well in their language of choice, but when it comes …

I agree with most of his points, but let's be honest people, writing good documentation is no easy task. And not many programmers are good communicators either.

That's it! Thanks!

There's this site where you can compare implementations of several patterns in different languages... If only I could remember where... anyone?

Drooling... You build a working HTML4 web app, and then sprinkle progressive enhancements with JS and HTML5 (even offline browsing!), and voilá! You've got a web application with a…

One very useful way to get around this, specially when you use both a local and the global version, is to setup a keyword search for each in your browser (in Chrome and Firefox it'…

Plus, FWIW, with MySQL I've had lots of table corruption issues over the years (although it's been a couple of years since then, so it might be more stable now). Never had any issu…
