    I find it's way easier to build crappy React apps than an HTML-first approach. An "old school" Ruby on Rails/Symfony/Django app, with templates, usual get/post forms etc, frames yo…

    I'm astonished by how far those aim trainer tools go haha, and how popular they are. I discovered Aimlabs[1] recently, which seems like the most popular one, and it has 6 000 peopl…

    Yeah, I'm really not sold either on the speed aspect. I'm using warpd which is a similar tool, and for me it's really not about speed, but more about the comfort of keeping my hand…

    I agree the discomfort, or after a while, even the pain when using the trackpoint, is something very noticeable on modern thinkpads. I don't recall being this annoyed with the olde…

    You certainly can't remap the Fn key on the software side. If the keyboard firmware allows to remap the Fn-layer it would be a dream :)

    To nuance this, the more you go up in specs, the more macbook become more expensive than comparable framework. Try to compare with a 64GB framework or 2TB framework for example. On…

    I'd bet a bunch of money that it's barely used anymore. Only benefit of trackpoint nowadays is that you don't move your hand. Otherwise, it's all downsides compared to modern track…

    yeah, why don't vendors just copy the damn thinkpad layout? It's a _pro_ line-up, we deserve a keyboard where _pros_ can directly use the keyboard shortcuts in their _pro_ apps :) …

    I have to agree the keyboard layout is a noticeable bummer. The only actually impactful one I can find on this laptop on my side for now. So, props to the team still!

    Man, this looks really, really impressive. It basically solves every issue we could find to the framework 13. Can't wait for the reviews. Accepting the prices of the ram shortage e…

    I agree that Laravel models rub the wrong way, but that shouldn't instantly remove Laravel from the equation when thinking about what tools to use for building a website. Laravel i…

    vscode is noticeably slow compared to sublime text or zed, even without any extension. You instantly notice it when switching files or typing things that trigger auto-completions. …

    Yeah, nowadays the trackpoint is just a bad pointing device. As laptops get slimmer, trackpoints get less precise and less usable. And they hurt our wrists. We just have to let go.…

    cool stuff :) I got some warnings like "this is not a best practice and I don't like bad practices". Like hey, who are you to judge me like that? I'm offended.
