They've had a preview version of this available as ts-go for a while now, and I've been really happy using it on my projects. I just installed it and changed "tsc" to "tsgo" in a c…

I did not understand why all the commentary in the game was about giant peanuts until I read your comment. Thank you!

You could do some sort of adaptive quality where you spend time incrementally improving fidelity until your frame budget is up. In practice I think that might be trickier than it s…

You might be right. I think the other thing is that there are a ton of free things for me to watch on various streaming platforms.

People are saying that you can buy movies online, but I think they're missing the key point of putting lots of movies on massive discounts and promoting the movies that are current…

It seems like they know I have an iPhone with dark mode enabled, that I speak English, and that I'm in the USA (but wrong city wrong state). I am kinda unimpressed, I'm pretty sure…

There is actually one tool I've dealt with that works nicely with hand-crafted SVG's: https://boxy-svg.com/

In most real-world use of the term, a paradox isn't something that's impossible, it's just something that intuitively seems wrong when you first think about it. "I got a Prius so n…

There's plenty of non-critical code that I would trust non-technical people with good AI tooling to touch. As long as their access is segregated from the actual critical stuff. But…

> I realized my predilection for verbosity was actually a symptom of my own insecurity, emotionalism, and indecisiveness. Ok, Mr. Milchick.

I've been thinking of just using sandpaper stuck to a block of wood, though I imagine that might be slower. Heck, a little part of me is tempted to try the smallest radius round-ov…

I have thought about filing/sanding my MacBook forever and getting a case to solve the problem never even occurred to me. I feel a little silly now because it does seem obvious, bu…

I've been meaning to do this forever and think this game me the push I've needed to do it tonight when I get home. Probably not as rounded as OP, but it's reassuring to know I coul…

The first sentence of this page says it: > Sycamore is a next gen Rust *web* UI library powered by fine-grained reactivity.

Yeah if you're serializing and deserializing data across the JS-WASM boundary (or actually between web workers in general whether they're WASM or not) the data marshaling costs can…

I mean, if the North Korean employees are doing good work, the companies employing them aren't exactly incentivized to find out that they're really North Koreans, cuz then they hav…

The point is that there are legit American citizens who are in on the con. They have real SSNs and an actual presence in the US. They run proxy servers out of their house to make i…

I actually don't think her reasoning has to do with other people at all. I think it's that given she wants to make an image of a poorly designed object, she knows she could either …

Surely the easiest way is something like a PayPal/venmo link, no? I know a lot more people who use those than crypto.

Are your frontend builds actually so slow that you're not seeing them live? I've gotten used to most frontend builds being single digit seconds or less for what feels like a decade…

Ok, obviously unethical to do it, but this sounds like you've got the power to create some sci-fi shared dreaming device, where you can read people's brainwaves and send signals to…

Yes it is. I've really oijed those convention at places I've worked. It probably wouldn't be too hard to instruct AI's to use this format too.

It seems harder to justify telling someone to fuck off for doing literally the exact same thing you're currently doing.

I second this! I switched to mint recently. They are offering unlimited data including hotspot for $15/mo for up to a year if you prepay. I think then it goes to their standard rat…

I tried it for the first time the other day after having heard how much better it's gotten recently, and it made me really wonder how bad was the UX _before_ all these recent impro…
