Their headline says "TypeSafe A raises series AI". Is that AI slope?

I worked with Alex (founder of stainless) at Stripe and he's awesome. Happy for him and well deserved. Congrats Alex! :)

It's always funny to me how they are still insisting on customer experience and good coffee house. In the bay area most starbucks have become the burger king of coffee shops: housing of drunk homeless people

you should probably read the article then, it's pretty clearly explained

Is his book "Wiring Up The Big Brother Machine...And Fighting It" worth a read?

insane, I never thought that `toList.appendChild(item.closest('li'));` would MOVE the item. You learn something every day

I totally agree with the impact of spontaneous things happening when in person.

I had been working remotely for 8 years and really was 100% for it and advocating it. I recently joined a new job where I'm at the office 3 days a week, and I can definitely feel the difference both in the time it took me to onboard (compared to other remote-only onboarding I did) and the productivity / relationships / other gains from those days we are all in the office.

Those ad-hoc conversation happening around a desk, a white board, at lunch, do bring a lot of value that you never get while WFH. I can definitely see how some of my previous burn outs may have been prevented if I was not 100% remote.

Of course YMMV, but personally I can definitely see how a company may decide to get back to the office and it's definitely not all black and white where remote is better and omg the mean bosses are getting butts back in seats for more control.

the question is, when you "work" more, are you actually "working" more. I'm not advocating for either side, but I believe a few places that have moved to a shorter work week haven't seen lower productivity. Might be a sign that most people actually can't do ~40hrs of work per week.

I'm surprised they don't mention Parker. At school in France in the 90s, that was the true classic.

Sorry, can someone explain what is happening here? What's wrong with those products?

I learnt ruby with Zed Shaw’s Learn Ruby the Hard Way. Was a really great experience!

That's good timing, because with the increase in the price for youtube premium, I started thinking that I wanted an alternative to watching youtube on my TVs without ads.

Does anyone know if using a pi-hole triggers ad-blockers popups on websites, and if yes, is it easy to deal with (either activate ads for specific websites, etc)?

I've just started playing the demo yesterday and I'm hooked. Will definitely buy the game, but wondering on which platform. My laptop screen already feels a bit small - anyone has an experience playing on switch and thoughts on playing on handheld mode and/or using controls compared to keyboard/mouse?
