    If I ever find myself with the money to do this, that was exactly what I was thinking.

    I’d love to do something similar to an El Camino. I don’t even need triple digit range; I’d use it as a local runabout, mostly to my art studio.

    I got laid off a while ago and I’m privileged enough to take time to reconsider what I want to do. I’ve been learning how to sketch which supports my bigger passion- printmaking. I…

    Instagram is the same way if a link is dropped into the comments. Infuriating.

    Any docs or talks about this somewhere?

    If you're using Apache you could just use Server Side Includes and forget the JS.

    Vue is about as ancient yet people still use that. Python is even older.

    Why is that? Why would soldering the connections vs plugging them in affect how much data per second they transfer?

    If they move jobs every two years, that’s 5 periods of interviewing. 40 interviews per period doesn’t seem too out there.

    I can easily switch back and forth. I have more than 34 keys, but I don't use the number row or modifier keys. My layout is also columnar, similar to the OP's.

    Could be confused with Feathers, a Javascript web framework.

    I’d love to see that.

    Maybe it displays oddly on your phone but all I’ve seen is effusive praise for how the landing page is constructed. The graphic is meaningless but the information around it is info…

    Does anyone remember the parody of this where the answer is an “abbatoir” and the character also has to be every animal?

    I recall using cartoon logic to think that the web might be stretchy or bouncy. I’m way from my desk right now so I can’t easily consult the doc, but I recall Manny’s observations …

    Perhaps I’m biased because I played the game when I was 14 and had much more free time to dedicate to it, but it’s my impression that Grim Fandango was known for having few of the …

    I’d take this comment more seriously if there weren’t car companies that bought up rail networks and shut them down.

    Is there a repo or list of single HTML files like this? I’ve seen people mention Tiddlywiki but that’s it so far.

    It's a good first draft. I do find it a shame that the HTML output is only div elements. I think a little accessibility would go a long way. I also can't select text in many places…

    Your concerns about some people being more deserving of a good investigation reminds me why it's great that hospitals will serve everyone, even if they are a gangbanger.

    You wouldn’t be, but the police doing so would be in such a situation, if there was equality.

    It’s a film noir coded game. It does nail that dark aspect in many scenes and does it masterfully. I recently replayed it and it was remarkable how great it still is after decades …

    Wait times in the USA suck. I just moved to a west coast city, need to set up new doctors. Soonest I could get for an endocrinologist is February, and I made the appointment a mont…

    Ten years of working corporate and contractor front end gigs and I’ve found that most companies are loathe to update unless there’s a feature they need from something more modern.

    Tailwind reminds me why I'd rather go classless and then write a `custom.css` for anything not covered by semantic HTML.
