Agreed. I'll always prefer an Alamo or Cinepolis, but I've actually been extremely impressed every time I end up up at non-boutique movie theater. AMC has upgraded their seats at a…

I always figured buying that NFT was sort of a way to just donate to one of Jack's charities. I hope the buyer wasn't trying to make a long term investment with it.

Yeah, I just leave my helmet on the bike (on the handlebars, not attached). It's not a high value item to steal. Someone took my front tire once but left my helmet.

I'm trying to think of what useful evidence that law enforcement can get out of an infotainment system. Guilty of listening to too many Brittney Spears tracks?

I got a hand written postcard recently from a seller asking for a review. Threw it in trash tho

I can't actually imagine watching NFL without using Twitter during commercials (or after something crazy happens). It's actually quite spectacular World Cup is definitely going to …

Same. I always have both open, but use VSCode 98% of the time

Cool, it's been a while so maybe I'll give it another try

I love Postgres.app on mac, makes running locally a breeze. Running Postgres fast on the cloud is what I always struggled with (without paying enormous sums)

I paid for Raindrop for years, really loved it. But it got extremely buggy (forced me to relogin constantly). I'd open Raindrop, it would completely reset my auth info, and then cl…

Seems like most (if not all) of the top tech companies are also on hiring freezes.

Why does the Twitter business model have to be porn? Twitter celebrities with big audiences could monetize with premium follows and premium content. Political campaigns could use i…

Great article. I hope whatever idiots at Google who made these decisions are held accountable. I was a Google Talk, Google Voice, Google Hangouts user who also felt their product n…

I agree, the API on remix seems awesome

Anyone currently using Remix in a production app? Read through the docs and it seems pretty interesting. Can't really get a sense for how stable it is though. I know from prior use…

FSD sure feels like it is. I say this as one of the suckers who wasted my money on it.

What's wrong with SCSS modules? It has a lot of really useful functionality that frontend developers like me love.

The new version (written in Dart of all things) seems pretty fast. The old ruby implementation was insanely slow, and the nodesass rewrite was insanely broken. Whatever they got no…

Agreed. Every time NextJS changes out their build system for speed, its users lose out on all kinds of functionality that they were depending on before. Moving away from Babel to S…

Tried for hours this weekend trying to share files from my Mac Laptop to a Windows 11 PC over the network. Both had latest versions of operating systems. Could not for the life of …
