Contact support page is probably just a waste of time even if it did work.

Thank you for the headsup!

I don't dislike that they at least want to see you in real life once tbh. I love ease of registration like anyone else, but with tax avoidance and all that, idk. Feels right to me to have at least seen yourself once.

A good way to push foreigners toward competitors and reduce any incentive to base you AI company in the US.

I wouldn't call that "easier" perse.

I'd call that bad pretty bad.

Without internet or AI I wouldn't attempt writing anything like that.

Is this enforcable in the EU? Not allowing a user to delete their data must be in violation of GDPR I imagine (although I'm no expert)?

> the Postgres query planner is amazing

Let's agree to disagree.

It's becoming too complex, too unpredictable. Every query and variable becomes a surprise in production. It's too smart for its own good.

Always surprised me in the land of the "Free" they ban a whole lot more than in most other countries. Books, LGBT stuff, no objective media. It feels quite medieval.

These arguments become so vague to me that it just feels like an excuse for governments to do whatever they want.

Calling it "Grey zone conflict" feels like the "Deep state" shenanigans... It's primarily marketing to achieve your goal.

We've seen the invasion of Iraq; that was all based on lies. We got ISIS as a result... "National security circles" look for evidence so it fits their narrative. Like watching FoxNews. It's a very narrowminded funnel of carefully picked pieces of evidence. They are not truth seekers that aim to provide a holistic view of the situation. No, they are scared aged men who love to control the narrative and see danger in everything in the hope to get more funding for their next projects.

Btw; banning TikTok is a good thing, but for other reasons entirely.

From the article;

> Today many web developers consider jQuery to be “legacy software.” With all due respect to this perspective, jQuery is currently used on 75% of all public websites, a number that dwarfs all other JavaScript tools.

I feel that is misleading. I worked on a lot of websites and none of them included jQuery willingly or sometimes even knowingly.

Either it's shipped as a peer dependency or we're talking about wordpress and the like which use it (and drives much of the web!).

I've seen it frequently shipped because of scripts embedded into a larger frontend codebase. Stuff they really don't want there to begin with.

I do not for a second believe that 75% of frontend dev work is in jQuery. In fact, I'd be surprised if it's more than 5% of all frontend engineering work is using jQuery.

Obviously some people might still use it for whatever reason; but those are a tiny majority (and probably quite vocal about it / over represented if they still prefer it).

So yes, to all intends and purposes I would claim jQuery is legacy software. Current usage (wherever they got that number from) does not mean it's still the preferred choice for the majority of web developers.

They are switching from sRGB to OKLCH.

First time I heard of OKLCH tbh. Anyone know if that is part of a wider adoption trend or is Tailwind pioneering here?

Looking at the examples it does seem to offer some advantages; but was primarily surprised that they now use it as a default.

Wouldn't that broken behaviour be a potential security issue by itself?

I do remember Go making backwards incompatible changes in some rare scenarios like that.

(and technically the loopvar fix was a big backwards incompatible change; granted that was done with a lot of consideration)

> I will personally never use Copilot, or any other AI code generation tool, for the simple reason that I enjoy writing code.

This will sound extremely harsh; but I noticed I strongly favour colleagues who do use AI-assisted tooling over those who do not. The PR, documentation and code just looks cleaner.

So if it comes to who I favour working with; it's usually people who rely on AI-tools. They deliver code I like maintaining more.

No. Two charging points near my home but always occupied. We need more. It's stopping me from buying an EV actually since I can't charge it reliably.
