GPT-5.5 3 months ago

One struggle I'm having (with Claude) is that most of what it knows about Three.js is outdated. I haven't used GPT in a while, is the grass greener?

Have you tried any skills like cloudai-x/threejs-skills that help with that? Or built your own?

Me: "Indie Hacker for 15+ years. I learned to program “for fun“, back in middle school. I've done everything by myself the first years (code/UI/website/analytics/tests!). Good old days! I've studied for a few years also – mostly to please the parents – and worked for and with a few startups, before creating my own code/consulting business. I closed it after 3½ years and now I'm traveling looking for what's next! :)"

Also me: I'm lazy so this is my exact LinkedIn About Section (that I just updated) \o/

Obviously I've done a lot of things all those years. Nowadays I'm really focused on iOS/SwiftUI, but I'm open!

Apple Sign In 7 years ago

Family is easy, I made them switch to Apple years ago and things have been a breeze since. Most of my friends using Android are also working in IT and are already using disposable/forwarding emails AFAIK. And... to be honest, I don't have friends using Windows :D

SwiftUI 7 years ago

Actually I had VB6 in mind yes, but after a few months playing with it I made the switch to .NET (which was still in beta I believe at the time) so I was using Visual Studio ".NET" :)

Apple Sign In 7 years ago

I've been trying for some time to explain to my friends and family how a unique email/password + 2FA strategy is the best thing to do and how it would allow them to cut one in case it gets leaked. I guess I will just tell everybody about "Sign in with Apple" now, it will be easier.

SwiftUI 7 years ago

This reminds me Visual Studio back in 2001 when I discovered programming. Everything was so easy to prototype. I'm so happy to see Apple is taking this direction. Thank you guys!

The choice was to match Casper as much as possible.

All Jasper's assets came from Casper, so I didn't chose any markup. I just reused Casper templates and translated those for Jekyll :)

Here are the original Casper files related to the two files you mentioned:

[1] https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/blob/master/page.hbs#L25

[2] https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/blob/master/index.hbs#L14...

As you can see if you compare both repositories, Jasper is a direct port of Casper but with less code repetitions!

BTW, here is the <article> you're looking for: https://github.com/Pym/Jasper/blob/gh-pages/_layouts/page.ht...

But I can't really answer that second question, I think you'll have to ask Casper authors:

https://github.com/TryGhost/Casper/blob/master/assets/css/sc...

My first regret: having not the balls to do what I really wanted when I was a teenager.

I went to the university mostly to please my parents and to reassure them. I think that was my biggest mistake and I never really learned anything there.

My second regret: quitting. I'm getting bored very easily.

I'm thinking about 2 projects I started with friends where I left the ship eventually because I felt less motivated than them. Now they are both making tons of money and expansing there companies (while I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my life).

I also started a lot of projects which I will probably never release, but that's a pretty common thing.

The last one: working for someone else.

Studying led me on the logical path of getting a job. I first said to myself that it will be temporary and I listened to people who were telling me that I had to have a little experience before launching my own thing (and my advice is: don't listen to their bullshits and do what the fuck you really want to do). The truth is that when you get a job it consumes you and you can forget what your dreams are pretty quickly.

The counterbalancing point of this last regret is that I met extraordinary people while I was an employee, who are still very good friends nowadays. Actually the guy with whom I'm trying to build a startup right now is a former coworker of mine ;)

I have the new UI and... it's awful.

I get the whole "it's for preventing phishing, etc." but I believe that it shouldn't be done by hiding the URL from the user.

Furthermore, it's a real pain to have to click to see it. And guess what happen if you go to another tab and then go back to the first one? The URL is gone. You can't even compare 2 tabs URLs.

IMHO: good problem, wrong solution.
