    It's not rug pulling, it's simple price anchoring. They'll degrade when it makes financial sense for them. You will pay for it. There's no way around it besides self hosting or usi…

    That's exactly what happens. The algo does not judge how hurtful a rabbithole may be - it optimizes for engagement with some moderation sprinkled on top. I've tried to make my face…

    No pen a and paper? Compile it on fleshware. It's not a question of what you can do, but where the comfort level reduction outweighs the project importance/pay.

    Is this true? I'm getting a feeling that most of this is adding external stucture when coding agents already provide a framework for it. I've had moderate success in throwing a bra…

    Banks like that exist. mBank from Poland does in-app approve/reject - similar to what you get on an Android phone when you try logging in on a new PC. They also send phishing warni…

    This is an issue with CSV numerical values stored as strings, for numbers it's a bit better. Libraries sometimes allow for a raw import that preserves the internal data type of the…

    There was an AMA with Emad yesterday on discord. He got asked this. The promise is that 1.5 will be released in the following week. The slowdown has numerous issues. They got legal…

    Or so you may think. Working with diffs / merge conflicts already exposes you to internals. Knowing that committing big binary blobs is a bad idea also could be categorized as "kno…

    For client-side stuff like that, there is sheetjs which has support for XLSX but there are file size limitations. XLSX is a glorified zip file and to parse it you 1st have to unzip…

    This uses WebAssembly so it can preserve PNG transparency for example, which the canvas method loses.

    I got the same message. Still, having faster builds with one additional plugin without configuration needs on projects locked on 4 or waiting out the transition is a plus in my boo…

    Yes, but... chances are your backend dev will have a system-provided or just plain outdated Node version so they'll get a cryptic exception and will have to reach for assistance. I…

    Depends on what packages you use and how well they do semver. Chances are you will get major version bumps for most of your dependencies after 1-2 years of development. What works …

    Caching was a major dissapointment for me. DllPlugin is a nightmare to setup and other caching plugins I tried don't really speed things up. What eventually worked for me is HardSo…

    Depends a lot. Debugging is awesome when you have source maps and good devtools in a modern browser but the code itself is not editable. That said it's possible to open a plain htm…
