Modern Node.js Patterns 12 months ago

I never really liked the syntax of fetch and the need to await for the response.json, implementing additional error handling -

  async function fetchDataWithAxios() {
    try {
      const response = await axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1');
      console.log('Axios Data:', response.data);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Axios Error:', error);
    }
  }



  async function fetchDataWithFetch() {
    try {
      const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1');

      if (!response.ok) { // Check if the HTTP status is in the 200-299 range
        throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
      }

      const data = await response.json(); // Parse the JSON response
      console.log('Fetch Data:', data);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Fetch Error:', error);
    }
  }

uBlock Origin GPL code being stolen by team behind honey browser extension 2 years ago

If I understood MegaLag's video correctly, Honey was indeed overriding an affiliate session cookie with their own once the user the reached the checkout. The extension would silently open a tab in the background, which seems pretty scummy. I've observed the same background tab shenanigans with the Capital One extension as well.

Why pay for a search engine 2 years ago

Just tried that example screenshot of 'postgresql query analysis' and got the same results on Kagi vs Google with uBlock. What exactly is novel here?

Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates 3 years ago

Nexus products weren't _technically_ made by Google. 5 was LG's design and 7 was Asus'. During this era Google specifically stuck to working on the software while passing on the technical designs to other partners.

Notes on Vision Pro 3 years ago

VR gaming has definitely cultivated a community in the genre of sim-racing and Half Life Alyx modding
