Silly question, but do you reckon it'll function decently in a Kotlin multiplatform codebase? There's swift native code, but I'm not sure how it would perform with some logic being…

Yikes! I've been needing an upgrade, and I was on the fence between a specc'd out MBP, or building out a AI server and delegating tasks to it over Netbird/Tailscale to my homelab. …

A new Beej guide? In this economy!?

Do we need that type of metric anyways? Surely there are better ways to measure a repo's activity...

I’ve often pondered the same. Seems like Israel gets a lot of special treatment from the US.

> In other words, it’s opinion and not fact, which is something I do not want conflated in a technical post. As you’ve already stated, it’s an opinion and not a fact. I wouldn’t ta…

It has. I was just having this conversation with a friend the other day. Despite Netflix having all their analytics/viewership data, they consistently crank out garbage. You might …

I've come to despise all streaming services and hope they all burn down. We've gone full circle in terms of price and convenience. Hell, even Prime now wants to you pay extra to no…

I think I'll be taking a step back from React/Next.js for the foreseeable future. I feel fortunate in that, for most of my projects, I can make architectural decisions such as this…

I miss Jobs. These prerecorded presentations are soulless and almost embarrassing at times. Happy to see USB-C on the iPhone (thanks EU) and no price hikes.

This has been my sentiment lately. I purchased a Tesla last year (primarily to save on gas) and its been an amazing car. You raise a couple points that have been on my mind. The ra…

What about at peak times? Any noticeable dips? I tried Visible in the past and wasn’t too thrilled with Verizon’s coverage in my city. Might need to revisit since I’m really tired …

I spent about a decade in Europe and really enjoyed learning about how their electrical grid works. The ability to directly plug most appliances without needing to buy extra adapte…

Similar story here (truenas was a gateway drug). There are a few up and coming filesystems that I have my eye on. But by and large, ZFS has remained my favorite.

I cant wrap my head around using Git for this... My sweet spot has been Plex + Plexamp. I have a truenas server and created a 'media' nfs share for my Plex instance. I've been a ve…

I've been a REST API developer for a few years now. For whatever reason, I've never bothered dipping my toes in the RPC realm. This article resonated with me. Looks like I'll be bu…

Personally, I think that AAA studios are due for a reality check. There's been _some_ decent releases from these studios in the past decade, but they are few and far between. I can…

> You gave up on it 5 years ago but are sure nothing happened in the last few months I said that it's been in decline. If its unusable now, I'm not shocked because of the way it wa…

The documentation and usability of Twitter's API has been in decline for at least a few years now. I gave up in 2018/19 (or whenever they implemented the new version of their API?)…

Care to post some examples? I'm not saying they don't exist, I've just never seen it in the wild.

This is the way, and should honestly be the default unless you are 100% your software needs something like an SPA.
