    I love this! Semi-related, I was just fiddling with a Firefox extension this morning to flip Python 2 documentation results with those of Python 3 (usually also in the results, but…

    Build something that you wish you had, not what you think people need.

    Yup, I dig this and I hope we see more of this as we enter another phase of mobile devices. My iPhone 11, although a great phone, is unnecessary for me. I love its camera (for phot…

    Ask HN: Is it worth converting a large JavaScript codebase to TypeScript?

    This feels odd to live as part of the CSS spec, given its focus on style. Now we're mixing in performance specification with styling I guess that's already been done anyways. Anyon…

    Love it. Not in it to change the world or gain enormous profit, rather in it to make cool shit and have fun. A breath of fresh air.
