Never used Preact so unsure

The author noted that Solid is very similar to React but with a simpler mental model. This has been my experience as well. And its faster too.

Looks interesting! What is the business model?

I posted a job for freelance dev work and all replies were obviously ai generated. Some even included websites that were clearly made by other people as their 'prior work'. So I pulled the posting and probably won't post again.
Who knew. AI is costing jobs, not because it can do the jobs, but it has made hiring actual competent humans harder.

I'm starting to think these 'Github Apps' are a bad idea. Even if CodeRabbit didn't have this vulnerability, what guarantee do we have that they will always be good actors? That their internal security measures will ensure that none of their employees may do any malicious things?
Taking care of private user data in a typical SaaS is one thing, but here you have the keys to make targetted supply chain attacks that could really wreak havoc.

Oh my god. I haven't finished reading that yet, it became too much to comprehend. Too stressful to take in the scope. The part where he could have put malware into release files of 10s of thousands (or millions?) of open source tools/libraries/software. That could have been a worldwide catastrophe. And who knows what other similar vulnerabilities might still exist elsewhere.

Loved Homeworld too. There really was nothing like it when it came out.

I live in a developing country ... Thailand.
Reading things like this, stories in this thread, and about how people are avoiding seeing the doctor because they're afraid of the bills ... makes me realize in some ways Thai people actually have a higher quality of life than many in US in this respect.
Costs are order of magnitude(s) lower. A night in the hospital is typically 5,000-10,000 baht or $166-$333. And the quality of care is at a good standard .. so much so that Thailand has become a Medical Tourism destination:

If you have some money, you can pay more for faster service and more attentive care at more expensive private hospitals.
And if you can't pay, you are still covered by Thailand's Universal Healthcare:
"What Thailand can teach the world about universal healthcare" https://www.theguardian.com/health-revolution/2016/may/24/th...
"Thailand: At the forefront of Universal Health Coverage" https://medium.com/health-for-all/thailand-at-the-forefront-...
Thailand is a relatively poor country, but we are still able to do this. In the US, I guess some people would rather die than admit needing help from the government ... or trying to clamp down on healthcare costs cause it would be too much 'regulation'?

Buddha is not his name, his name is Siddhārtha Gautama.

No, it does properly support both of those and I've been happily using those features in VS Code for a while now. It might actually be the best editor for JSX.

Why not CTRL+PGUP / CTRL+PGDN ? Requires less fingers too.
EDIT: Sadly Vivaldi doesn't seem to support CTRL+PGUP / CTRL+PGDN yet.

With all this writing about the 'quantum problem' and quantum mechanics not making sense, I don't understand why quantum theorists don't take pilot wave theory and the oil droplet experiments more seriously.

Also, having people with expertise in other fields (fluid dynamics in this case) look at the problem is exactly what can create progress.

I'd recommend adding webpack ( https://github.com/webpack/webpack ) to build tools. It's similar to browserify but has some nice extra features.

The main problem (quote from the article):
"What we’re doing is using human beings as safety nets or backups to computers, and that’s completely backward"
Made me stop and think a bit when I read this, very true.
