SEEKING FREELANCER | Remote (US) Intermediate Drupal PHP Developer Looking for a Drupal Developer to help on a number of university web projects. Includes custom builds and mainten…

I was hoping the article was going to be about a physical device as well as the software to manage and play songs. A few years ago I wanted to get my 10 year old son an mp3 player …

The International Airlines Travel Agent Network ( https://webstar.iatan.org/WebStarExtranetWEB/login.jsp ) website, in addition to being extremely dated in its design, keeps busine…

That takes the fun out of it! No in reality there doesn’t even seem to be a material difference in the amount of water used by each button. But I think in the spirit of this thread…

So glad I'm not the only one. My house has four different two button toilets and I can't for the life of me figure out which does what. My wife says smaller button is for less wate…

Not OP but working on a project in similar domain (ndaok.com). The technology is definitely making it easier to replace lawyers. The biggest barrier right now is lawyers themselves…

For SaaS, React frontend and Laravel/Lumen on the backend. DB is usually Postgres.

Oh wow, you just sent me down a really intriguing path. I was not familiar with IFC, but looking more into that now. No, it does not look like their repo [0] has IFC files, but I d…

The last time wikihouse showed up on HN (September '23) I did a deep dive on the process I still haven't come out of. 20 years ago as a grad student getting my masters in architect…

Agreed. Ben, although he doesn't know it, is one of my biggest inspirations for what I do. Back in 2005 or so he did a presentation to my class at the GSD on his genome visualizati…

Same here. One of the things that made me a loyal Linode customer was that often they would have a resource upgrade (i.e. "we've doubled your RAM!") without a price increase. Not p…

Interesting, I have a similar goal but in the Drupal space. My partner and I have been building Drupal sites for clients for almost 15 years and we keep running into hosting issues…

Excited to check this out. I'm a long time Linode user and recently came across some projects that could leverage a managed DB. As always, I find the prices competitive – especiall…

Thanks for your work on Postico. Was looking for a Mac based GUI when I made the switch from MySQL to Postgresql almost 10 years ago. Sequel Pro was my go to interface for understa…

Congrats on the launch. My company tried to tackle collaborative trip planning too by doing a shared itinerary ( https://www.lunamoons.com ). We went as far as collaborative bookin…

The River Why by David James Duncan. A coming of age, meaning of life book with fishing as the central metaphor.

Same here. Linode has been my go to infrastructure ever since I decided I needed to leave MediaTemple and become serious about my server infrastructure. I feel like Linode made me …

Yes, scope creep can significantly change the time requirements or even the entire, shall we say "scope". But I think it's just as important for us as developers to be aware of tha…

Congrats to the Stripe team. I can't believe it has only been 10 years. I actually had to go check my inbox to see when I started using Stripe and it looks like I received my accou…

I get the spirit of the document, but disagree with the goal. I'm biased, I've kind of made my career writing web applications for people reliant on Excel. While I've come to respe…

I really like this. We've attempted similar ideas on projects before based on first/last initial and it never turned out like I wanted. I like the simplicity of your execution and …

My first reaction to this was to be creeped out. Even being in the industry how did all of these sites (560) have data about me that they were willingly sending to Facebook without…
