came here to write exactly this :-) The best decision in my life was moving to Bay Area in 2010. The second best decision was to move out in 2022.

I'm still on the fence (and distracted by Vision Pro). It's a good-ish idea, IMHO. I'd like to see a toolkit for "reading configs" where configs are some universal format (JSON, YA…

communism immediately comes to mind. beautiful idea, but also the idea with the largest body count in the human history.

I just run a count, on the infrastructure configuration for a relatively small, but already public company. 13k lines of YAML alone. Some of it is generated (from "YAML with macros…

If we produced a gigawatt of energy by cleanest way possible, where do you think this gigawatt ends up? Some "energy dumpyard" somewhere outside the solar system?

For the same type (shared whiteboard) and kind (getting back into the game) I chose Flutter for front (web/mobile) and Rust for back. Had a lot of fun and it even kinda worked :-)

my wall outlet supplies power from 3 different sources: grid, solar on the roof and/or powerwall, depending on the weather, grid status (which sucks where I live) and time of day. …

the power cord has to have a data link (USB? or just networking over power line itself) through which the power outlet can tell the computer how much does the energy cost at any gi…

But the Tesla is for some reason an American company. Is that just a correlation or some causation too?

the ease looks like a hack, since it's documented it's not a "hack as in workaround". in my vocabulary "hack" is a compliment, not a derogative. i grew up on jargon file.

why no one came up with the idea of reactive jquery i don't know. or, may be someone did?

literally this. but to the benefit of refine.dev i should say that you made the framework extremely easily hackable, at least where lame me wanted to hack it. your data backend did…

hm, indeed. thanks! interesting, i need to investigate. i just redeployed the same code to the cloudflare worker and it worked.

ha-ha, brother, I feel you. Infra engineer (VP last position) and built an app with Refine. I was exactly in your position not a long time ago. I tried to choose "The Best Framewor…

gone quickly

that's 4A and its state sucks ass. NSA is not military so they are of course welcome to stay!

but you don't have soldiers in your home! at least 3A is fine.

law abiding citizens. for criminals it's usually other way around ("progressive" DA drops the gun charge and the rest becomes misdemeanor, etc).

No, gun rights are violated much more and more deeply than for example 1A rights. Convicted felon who paid their debts to society can absolutely post on Quora and be a recognized p…

word combo "final solution" as applied to some human population has a very strong stink. also, wow, weed in the same category as opium and company. wow.

Line 5 and 6 seem to contradict each other. From 5 it looks like you want to more "gun licensing" and in line 6 you want not to "deny rights". Whereas gun licensing (any licensing,…

Not exactly fiasco. Some smart ppl spent $300k to jetset across the world for "research". They definitely do not consider that a fiasco!

I'm happy I don't live in California anymore. Although some of my taxes were spent on these gender equal shades, I left 13 months ago.

Empath mode is oxytocin injection. Joking? Or not?

Calories are not created equal. They are equal in physics sense, but your body is not a "bomb calorimeter" (device to measure caloric content of whatever). So maybe instead of cutt…
