This is the equivalent of a guy building a "car" in his backyard with old used parts, then saying it was only 1% of the cost of a new Mercedes, and everybody thinks now that Merced…

No, please WATCH IT! It's important to learn how reality really is. This is the process of using 100% of available information. You have been trained to block, censor and avoid eve…

I agree to your logic, but scanning social media gives a totally different view: People feel like they need to take action now. The murder of the ukranian girl set a social fire, a…

Sidefact: Bigger corps work around this by building holding structures etc, which is a legal soft-tax-evasion way to do this. But all the smaller businesses get hit hard, so as usu…

Why is git even in development? It's exactly the same like 15 years ago, right? ... right?

sounds like a weird AI comment to me

one good high-paying client is much easier than 1000 little clients. in every single aspect ;)

This page was last updated in 2015, 9 years ago, and ALOT has happened in image compression and on the web in these 9 years. And the samples are just so totally weird, they are not…

Yes, Kyiv, Ukraine (lived there for family reasons). Air strikes are very common, mostly during night. I live and work in 11th floor (self employed, mostly full remote), which is n…

i remember using it in early 2002 (due to this sticky name). wow, never expected to see this little masterpiece again

brilliant comment! also, the average population doesnt know better, as they dont have a reason/possibility to compare, so they think THIS is the best possible solution.

please add the tech stack, not just "software engineer", as there are literally hundreds of different job types in that exact field

Can confirm, have some ideas: Apple uses different file formats "internally" and also different resolutions, maybe saving them all in parallel as "one" video, which might cause thi…

Technically not a blog, but the FIRESHIP youtube channel changed my life: https://www.youtube.com/@Fireship A wild mix of super short videos about current software engineering topi…

Yes! In my bubble, we just need "code snapshots" or versioning, but not for the whole repo, more for each function / file. It's surprisingly hard to get juniors into git, there are…

Yes! Printer LEDs have been used for espionage (like visual morse code), and firmware has been hacked to store copies, there is a documentary about this somewhere on the web (haven…

Wow, here in Germany this concern was always called a "right wing conspiracy theory" by literally every mainstream media outlet. Headlines like "Is Trump afraid of dancing teens?" …

Totally agree! Humans are not made to have 20+ conversations going on at the same time, especially while doing actual work. Just stop it, radically, and open Slack only two times d…

This is by far the most professional and awesome post here! Love the way you handle your business and your craft, you Sir/Madame are a true maker. Every detail of this short messag…

you nailed it! this is exactly the problem. everything is horribly overcomplicated these days. i've 13 years of business experience and it gets harder and harder to even set up the…

Extremely interesting! I'm really curious to see your process. Congrats mate, you're a selfmade man/woman!

Excellent comment! Same here, we are digital messies / hoarders. It's gets worse with OCD, as the feeling of having unread items gives me brain cancer.
