I’m not as avid a reader as the author, but I can still offer one piece of advice: remembering what you read is important. https://world.hey.com/otar/remembering-what-you-read-8b70…

> AI is only as good as the person using it, that's why we have such vast range of what people "claim" AI can do and why everyone has way different opinions of it. Banger statement…

Very cute and funny! Thank you!

I had to postpone a call with developers (in 2 different countries) because I didn't had access to the issues board, which is a single source of truth for us. I understand the rapi…

In the ideal world a specification file should be committed to the repository and then linked to the PR/commit. But it slows you down and is no longer a vibe coding? Soon only impl…

Reliability was/is CF's label. It's alarming already. Too many outages in the past months. CF should fix it, or it becomes unacceptable and people will leave the platform. I really…

While using mullvad reddit doesn’t block access if you’re signed in. So, login without mullvad, turn it on after that and it should work.

I got so used to GIMP back in my Ubuntu Linux days that I don’t bother installing Photoshop or other image editor on my Mac. Besides, Adobe is an ugly company with shady billing/re…

That is a reason I only buy latest MacBooks to my team.

Mostly a bad advice.

That's a good point, but it can also be that the employer is satisfied with the "good enough" results. While it is true that the current high demand on a job market allows many to …

Awesome! I love seeing kids play around with code. Curiosity is very important at any age. That’s how I started too. Back in the days of Internet Explorer, I used to click View -> …

Long overdue

> This is why domain knowledge is key. Very true. There’s a huge difference developing in a well known vs. new domain. My mantra is that you have to first be experienced in a domai…

Hey! Thanks again! This leads us to another problem: you cannot easily sell niche products on a large market (Georgian wine and amber wine is one), mainstream customers want mainst…

It's a bit outdated website. Sorry for that :) The 2021 vintage was very good, but the recent ones are even better. Sadly, we only produce experimental wines (new varieties, blends…

> natural wine degrades quite fast when shipped with traditional couriers It's sporadic to achieve and maintain the needed natural sulfur level in the wine. In most cases, you must…

My general advice, not related only to Georgian wines, would be to seek small (boutique) producers in a mid-range ($15-30) category. I can name a few good brands available in the U…

Thank you for your kind words! The problem with wine products being available on the US market is very complex. The main issue is US laws, taxes, and procedures. As a small produce…

Georgian food is a talk for another day. Separately :)

Almost all of them. Only few varieties are hybrid or manually breeded. Out of those 500+ varieties, around 50 are in production. The rest are either very rare to find, are grown in…
