I know these sorts of meta comments are often frowned upon, but good god do I hate this approach of fading in every individual element on scroll down the page. It's one of my bigge…

As a Fastmail user for both personal use, as well as for my business, the best thing I can say about them is that I haven't thought about them in...a decade? We built a Discord int…

After reading through the issues thread, I'm honestly torn on which party you're referring to.

Anyone have a good recommendation for a thermal printer? I've been looking to get one for printing out daily to-dos and shopping lists.

Years ago, I used Stockpile (stockpile.com) to invest a small amount of money. Recently, I’ve been consolidating my accounts and sold my positions, but I’ve hit a systemic wall - t…

Completely agree on all points. We've had dual remotes running on a few high traffic repos pushing to both GitLab and GitHub simultaneously as a debug mechanism and our experiences…

We use GitLab on the daily. Roughly 200 repos pushing to ~20 on any given day. There have been a few small, unpublished outages that we determined were server side since we have a …

Yes, I was using "ChatGPT" colloquially. I’ve tried Claude Code, Copilot - I currently have Gemini running though madox2's vim-ai plug - and a few of the others, but I’ve never per…

Jesus, that's a staggering figure to me coming from senior developers. I guess I'm the odd one out here, but ChatGPT is nothing more than an index of Stack Overflow (and friends) f…

That's not actually the only issue, unfortunately. Steam did in fact accept Bitcoin for a while, but it was dropped in 2017, with Newell stating: > “We had problems when we started…

Having very recently gone through this process for both a “local” number A2P registration as well as a toll-free registration process I can say, unequivocally, that’s already what …

That's like asking why a weather app needs both a date and city - the temperature on July 4th matters, but it's completely different in New York vs. Cairo. Same with this - the yea…

Yes, the rise of batch brew in Melbourne has scared me a bit - because while it is generally higher quality than most American diners at the end of the day it’s just a large pot of…

You and I were seemingly writing our comments at the same time - and yours describes what I was trying to say so much more successfully than my own! Completely agree on all counts.…

It’s funny you mention that. I moved to Melbourne AU a while back and quickly realized how bad the coffee I had been drinking my whole life had been. I honestly had trouble finding…

You're not actually critiquing hypocrisy - you're just deciding whose version of it gets a microphone. Pulling public funding doesn't eliminate bias, it just ensures the only voice…

If your position is "I don't care anymore", then you're not making a principled argument - you're venting. That's fine, just don't pretend it's a policy stance.

If "everything is political", then eliminating federal funding from NPR and PBS doesn’t solve the problem - it guarantees that only corporate and ideological interests shape the na…

Sure, here you go: https://www.npr.org/2024/08/31/nx-s1-5077780/extremely-ameri...

Your assertion that I am "unable to name a similar example" is as baseless as it is puzzling, given that no such request was made. Regardless, it took me roughly eight seconds to f…

Sorry, but exactly what point are you trying to make here? Are you suggesting that NPR has never interviewed - say - Christian fundamentalists (they have)? Are you suggesting that …

The "admission" is irrelevant and was plainly included to appease readers like yourself. Did you actually read the piece? It's unmistakably an interview - not an article, and certa…

Offering a poor example in support of your argument is as futile - if not more detrimental - than disregarding the question entirely.

What in the world are you on about? They published an interview with an author who had - admittedly - controversial takes looting. You make it sound like they were telling people t…
