The resulting "combined" Codex + ChatGPT mac app is super confusing. I use the Codex app with my work account, but I liked the old ChatGPT app, which I kept logged in with my perso…

I think the only correct answer here is: It depends, on so many different things. Usage is definitely way more generous with codex and it isn't even close.

As a long time paying customer of DO, I don't know how I feel about this. I've been unbelievably happy with the products I rely on (App Platform and Managed Postgres). I worry this…

I agree it seems better at complex work. However, I find that it often tries to make ALL work complex. I had a simple bug fix where I knew exactly what the 1-2 line fix was. GPT 5.…

I also have always gone back to Claude after trying new models... until GPT-5.3-Codex, specifically with the new Codex Mac app. I've been pretty much full time with it for a few we…

Digital Ocean App Platform is great. We switched to it from Heroku in 2021. It had some growing pains to start, but has been rock solid since. I can only think of 1 downtime incide…

Not sure why the downvotes, it's largely true. Almost every non-techie I encounter in real life incorrectly uses the term "memory" to mean storage space.

I think it would be enough to simply move the 3 point line back a couple feet AND have it follow its natural arc out of bounds, thus eliminating the shorter and easier corner 3 sho…

Yes. I think part of the problem is how good it is at starting from a blank slate and putting together an MVP type app. As a developer, I have been thoroughly impressed by this. Th…

I used to feel they just served as a great auto complete or stack overflow replacement until I switched from VSCode to Cursor. Cursor's agent mode with Sonnet is pretty remarkable …

I'm of the opinion that a single VPS can take you a very long way. Once you get to the point where you've outgrown that model, you're likely making enough money where something lik…

I've tried several times to migrate a few apps I have from Dokku to Kamal because I've been intrigued by all the hype in the Rails community about it, but I've always given up afte…

I find myself contemplating this more and more now, especially as my interest in discovering new music has declined significantly as I enter middle age. My biggest concern would be…

I agree this is the correct way to use it, and it is incredibly useful in that case, but I think a study like this is valuable in the face of all the hype/fud about how AI Agents c…

The spotify app experience is what drove me away in the first place. Once they started cluttering the home screen with TikTok style videos and banner sized ads for podcasts I have …

The spatial audio is also keeping me with Apple Music, although I will say that while most are incredible, sometimes I'll come across an album where the spatial mix is laughably te…

I have been golfing in a weekly league for 10+ years and was frustrated by the complex spreadsheet our league manager built to track everything. I Figured there must be an app we c…

Awesome! I'm looking forward to trying this out. Currently I get this functionality by using PouchDB on the client with a CouchDB sever. Then on my API server I have some janky cod…

I wonder if they're going to offer Basecamp with this model, and if so, how much is that going to cost? I imagine it would have to be in the thousands.

Seems like ATT may have screwed this up even worse. They seemingly dropped my autopay discount to $5 from $10 claiming that I am using a credit card, when I'm using my checking acc…

I only have two Apple devices, my iPhone 14 Pro and my M1 Macbook Pro, both in front of me when this happened. You can't enable this feature if you have a non-compatible device tie…

Discord does has a "Forum" mode for channels. I cannot for the life of me figure out why no servers seem to use it. Trying to follow conversations or find useful info in a normal c…
