What are the cool setups with proxies?

I have a recurring daily task of closing all browser tabs and a weekly task of rebooting my Mac.

Tracking this as a task helps my digital hygiene, and at the same prevents me from doing it more often than needed.

Totally! The feeling of using AI to create something not fully productive is similar to the "just one more turn..." effect when playing a Civilization game. Even when you realize it's a waste, it's hard to stop, because the next dopamine hit is just around the corner.

Tailnet and Magic DNS make it easy to bring other people or devices to your network, including simple authentication mechanisms to know who is who

Cool!

Your readme mentions Modify. What’s that?

Does this use some generative UI?

(As a non-native speaker) I didn’t notice that, I love this post and even shared it with my team

Yes, it seemed from another word at the time. Now is table stakes. Thanks for showing the way!

What wrong with inlining base64 in regular .html if you want it all in one file?

Plus zipping that one file is you insist on a smaller file size

Thanks for a good word! Founder of HyperFormula here. HF will go AGPL soon, too

I see Bun’s Rust rewrite (esp the style how it was done) as a form of massive internet trolling for PR reasons. By making a bigger fuss about it, we’re feeding the troll

My programming career literally started in a dumpster in the ’90s, when I found a Turbo Vision book someone had thrown away. I picked it up and immediately fell in love with the bluish TUIs that anyone could make.

I got into improv theatre. There are groups in every city, at least here in the EU. It is both fun and developing creativity, alertness, etc.

Thanks! But I meant JS based virtual scrolling in web pages. E.g. dynamic data tables that only render the part of the table that fits in the viewport.

So it's effectively a net+DOM+script-only browser with no style/layout/paint.

Definitely fun for me to watch as someone who is making a lightweight browser engine with a different set of trade-offs (net+DOM+style/layout/paint-only with no script)

Both projects (Lightpanda, DioxusLabs/blitz) sound very interesting to me. What do you think about rendering patterns that require both script+layout for rendering, e.g. virtual scrolling of large tables?

What would be a good pattern to make virtual scrolling work with Lightpanda or Blitz?

I love this. We need more experimenting with UX status quo. Especially with drag and drop, which, I think all many would agree, is one of the not ideal UX patterns espacialy with scrolling involved.

The research is never over. Good ideas, bad ideas, doesn't matter as long as they continue to inspire.

As a HyperFormula founder, thank you for the mention. I wonder what’s your opinion on our formula library

What surprised me that they roll it out to 50% of the beta channel users. So you might or might not see the change until they roll it out for all

Such a beautiful magazine design. Does anyone have recommendations for more skillfully designed online magazines, blogs, etc?

I was very curious how come there is a PDF from 1977. Apparently it is built from these source files: http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/Lions/index.php

A fork on GitHub: https://github.com/kanner/lions-book

Agree. If the author collects the IP address of the response, maybe countries can be mapped retrospectively.

Amazing news! It would be great to read how did it come to attract such great sponsorships. Was that actively searched for by Andreas?

Can you expand what you mean by gopherapps?

I assume it was considered, but I don’t see it mentioned: Would it be a terrible idea to use a cloud computer and Remote Desktop/VNC to it? Your slow internet only needs to stream the compressed pixels to your thin client.

Sure, the concept is not new at all, but it is distilled to a very usable form. A similar comment can be made about TailwindCSS.

You are right. I edited my comment to remove the negative sentiment towards the advice itself. I also admire the craftsmanship there. Still, the dark patterns are just increasingly unbearable. Same can be said about many market leaders in other categories.

I find the experience of Airbnb user hostile. The last time I checked, the app pushed irrelevant search results on me with no option of turning that off. Now they give advice on UX? The advice might be sound, but it comes from an authority in marketing, not UX

Hopefully is-odd does not depend on is-even

This made me realize that trigonometric functions are not deterministic across different CPU architectures, OS, and programming languages (floating point precision aside).

E.g. I would assume that Math.sin(x) returns the same thing in NodeJS on Windows and Mac/M1, but it turns out it is necessarily so. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74074312/standard-math-f...
