    Yeah, I try to avoid 3rd party libraries unless it comes from credible sources/companies or vetted by famous frameworks e.g. Rails uses it. Not just for NPM but for Intellij plugin…

    (The author of the blog here) To clarify this: we don't intend to open-source it. There's no source code. The only reason we need a github repo is because Claude Code/Cowork requir…

    I've recently found the best way to find an apartment to rent in Bangkok. It's the Facebook Groups. Tons of owners post their listings there. So, I've built a scraper that scrapes …
