You don’t need to solve the problems of capitalism to call bullshit bullshit. Saying “companies maximize profits” doesn’t magically make the behavior acceptable and when Apple does this, it’s not just “the market at work,” it’s the use of market power.

> Do you like fine Japanese woodworking? All hand tools and sashimono joinery? Me too. Do it on your own time.

Ughh. That "own time." Spoken like a true middle manager who thinks passion is a liability.

This is how I work:

I use Cursor by asking it exactly what I want and how I want it. By default, Cursor has access to the files I open, and it can reference other files using grep or by running specific commands. It can edit files.

It performs well in a fairly large codebase, mainly because I don’t let it write everything. I carefully designed the architecture and chose the patterns I wanted to follow. I also wrote a significant portion of the initial codebase myself and created detailed style guides for my teammates.

As a result, Cursor (or you can say models you selecting because cursor is just a router for commercial models) handles small, focused tasks quite well. I also review every piece of code it generates. It's particularly good at writing tests, which saves me time.

Tell me what happened your freenode?

Discord is IRC's next evolution. Next generation chat. Good voice, excellent interactivity.

It has problems (bugs & weak beta phases) but after nearly 20 years of irc, i stopped my bnc (currently znc) instance last week. ~20 years of irc, countless bots, tons of good memories.

it is time to say goodbye for now.

Some parts of my old project at work:

1- WebSocket Server / Service (Poorly designed, barely alive)

It was fine until it was not. It seems managing a lot of connections are harder than our team thinks it is. I still don't get it why we dedicated a couple of people to this for very long time. We should have used one of the existing services like pusher or signalr etc.

2 - Mobile Push Notifications Service only for our usage.

To be honest this was working fine but they designed it like to be one of competitors. Was not worth the effort.

That claims about Youtube. Especially "YouTube has contributed to a growth of the flat earth conspiracies at the expense of scientific fact."

Do you understand how algorithm or statistics works?

They are giving people what they want. Freedom. People is watching that videos and made them more popular. They are free to share their thoughts.

Even google can't predict all the negativeness and prevent them with computer systems. Expecting being a god from google is unfair.

I think this is hate for google more than arguments against google.

I dislike chrome and using Firefox for a long time. But i don't think this is objective and completely true.

China strikes back huh.

This is big issue no matter how you look at it.

Maybe "no trade secrets" is a bit exaggeration.

Well. it is good tutorial but there is a little problem.

In minesweeper mines should be generated after first open. You can't hit mine at first click it must empty or number.

you are right. Css media queries are for viewport's resolution and some simple "media" types. Device type determination requires calculations on string (user agent). you cannot determine what devices are with css only. But a backend can. You can divide your app and serve seperate designs by user agent etc.

i get it. They reserved ".dev" domains but as well as ".app" ?

Meh.
