You're thinking of Discord

It depends on the person, as a sample size of one I was on 5,000IU and my levels were still on the low end (almost still deficient), and my calcium levels were still safely on the low side as well. Ultimately people should be getting their levels checked before and after to see exactly what the effect on them is

As others have mentioned there already is the ".home.arpa" TLD but I definitely think ".internal" is a step up in terms of clarity. That said, for my internal network I just put things under a subdomain of a domain I own so I can use HTTPS with a proper SSL cert

So it's basically the great tabs vs spaces debate again

Quantitative fallacy?

My problem with shower thoughts is often I have too many and it's a struggle to hold on to them all until the end of the shower so I can actually write them down

https://github.com/google/mundane/blob/master/DESIGN.md was where I first learned about how useful opaque types can be for ensuring the type system does the heavy lifting

Generally yes, although I definitely wish the initial load was speedier the better looks and "flow" are worth it imo. I usually browse Reddit using Relay and look at my saved posts on desktop, which has benefited a lot from the redesign since I can just do stuff in a single tab instead of middle-clicking a bunch of posts.

I still think that first-class support for PWAs will be a more promising alternative to Electron

I remember seeing this comparison and finding it quite profound as well.

There are definite a lot of advantages to building with web technologies, it's just that Electron is an excessively heavy way of enabling it since it basically just gives you a webapp with a whole browser bundled in. PWAs are a much better alternative since you can just use the one browser instead of having one running for every Electron app.

I still think that the majority of Electron apps can and should just be PWAs. Most like Discord pretty much just wrap their webapp anyway.
