It might be readable to agents but to me it reads like a manic babble.

It's a topic that interests me a lot, I am not a blind AI hater and I can usually stomach LLM prose without issues but I am lost and repulsed here.

Rather cleptocracy. Pedocracy or kakistocracy would also fit.

I don't care what was "disproven" or if it's a placebo.

I raised vitamin D intake in winter, I take betaglucans and if I feel like I am starting to get under the weather I take 2-3g of vitamin C per day.

Since we started that, no colds or flus for me or my wife and we have a kindergarten kid.

If we are pulling quotes out of a hat, why not some OG one?

“He who oppresses the poor taunts and insults his Maker, But he who is kind and merciful and gracious to the needy honors Him.” Proverbs 14:31

If you have some sort of compliance requirements, you need to update because of the onslaught of CVE vulnerabilities in the older versions. They are mostly bogus like "regexp DOS" but you have to satisfy the process and update anyway.

The fonts, the cards, the copy are all hallmarks of Claude Code.

While the aesthetic doesn't spark joy for me, the overall execution is great, the presentation flow and interactive boxes are very nice.

Little.js

Small yet covering all basic needs including sound, performant, great examples that you can use as starters (breakout, platformer, puzzle)

Codeowners file + required review from the owner team solves like 90% of those worries

Beware, the linked Creative Society is a front for AllatRa sect, very dangerous Russian backed disinformation group that's infiltrating Central Europe.

It goes so far that district attorney from Slovakia, who is a member of the sect is going after Czech journalists who uncover them.

They have tool to generate videos on any esoteric/conspiracy topic with AI assistance.

Sadly I can't link much English sources.

Monero was the only coin that made sense to me back in the 2017 crypto craze. A real anonymous and government free currency. To this day I am salty that Bitcoin won, such a shitty coin, now firmly embraced by governments, full of regulation. Slow, high fees, not really accepted by merchants. Just a "gold" made out of thin air.

I get what you mean in general, but toothpaste isn't a great example as it's not a necessity. My wife goes without it for years and has no cavity or gum issues.

Probably because they might be forced to sell it? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp81ppr3l9go.amp

There's a bunch of things you can't do with style attributes, just to pick a few:

- Pseudo-classes (e.g., :hover, :focus)

- Pseudo-elements (e.g., ::before, ::after)

- Media queries

- Keyframes and animations

And the DX in a larger project isn't great either.

On the other hand, this upcoming standard is a great addition for collocating styles https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@scope

I can't, our app is enterprise SaaS built as SPA. Nextjs is imho garbage. The only reason I can imagine it is so popular is that average React devs are indeed very bad with code organization. If I needed server rendering I would go with Astro + interactive islands.

Those are just shitty codebases. I maintain a React app that's over 10 years old, almost milion lines of code and we have zero components with 20 props, no issues with performance or whatnot.

I am an oponent of over-abstraction but components are very light abstraction and provide just sensible encapsulation and reusability.

The job market for php devs is also weird. Very few talented people. Because php jobs on average pay the worst, people who are motivated and smart often learn another language and abandon php. There are some very practical oriented and clever people willing to do php but you have to look very hard.

I don't understand the second sentence. As someone developing web apps for over 20 years, components ARE the better code organization.

No idea how it's relevant. For example in USA, I bet the overwhelming majority of homeless are citizens born in USA, not immigrants.

In my central European country with high ethnic homogenity the unhoused are also stemming from majority population. There is a Roma minority who are often struggling with poverty but are rarely unhoused.

Not an LLM but models could get pretty good at weather

Put humans in a room in isolation and they get dumber. What makes our intelligence soar is the interaction with the outside world, with novel challenges.

As we stare in the smartphones we get dumber than when we roamed the world with eyes opened.

Does DSM stand for Digital Surface Model?

Thos exact abbreviation is so overloaded that it doesn't hurt to list the words once.

I am curious how would this technique fare against masscan [1] that scans in a massively parallel fashion. I think it would either crash it or it could cost you a lot. It's a nice dream of "owning" the attackers but it doesn't have a real security value.

Astro is great. Love to see an update that simplifies rather than complicates (looking at you Next and co.)

Nice starter themes, nothing to learn really. I opened it up and had migrated a friend's website in three hours. Pairs greatly with Cloudflare.

Ocean is not a win. It means large sea ports and hence an influx of new rats.

Webpack itself might be fine but everything that babel brings and webpack plugins are the source of pain.

CVEs aside, core-js is a liability on itself. Sad personal story, sad that the world still thanklessly depends on it.

In enterprise environment you need to manically update to meet the security compliance SLAs because those dependencies are a source of non stop CVEs. It's mostly bunk CVEs but that's out of your control.

This would be an idea worth considering if you didn't pick babel which will drag a half of universe with it https://bundlephobia.com/package/babel-core

Use raw esbuild or swc; or be hassle free with Vite... or something else less cursed. I am grateful for Babel, it opened up the js development to new syntax but it's a beast from the past times. (The same applies to webpack)

Transitive dependencies of those are exactly the thing Dependabot will nag you about day and night.

I would go with sth more simple and geared towards game dev

is awesome and has many examples so you can start by editing them

In real (read enterprise) world you have things like SOC2 which mandates review by other people.

If you are 5 person startup, sure, commit straight to main.

Even in enterprise you should merge soon and live without long living feature branches but a PR where you run tests, static code analysis etc and get another eyes on is a good thing. With trunk based development the main goes straight to prod so you probably want to spin up the code for some testing anyway.

Hot take: I blame the culture of obsession with CS topics, leetcode, tail recursion, dependent types etc and not enough focus on solid engineering and domain knowledge in areas encountered by 90% of real life jobs.

Starts in the education and perpetrates via hiring, blogosphere and programmer celebrities.
