I read on Kindle because of my bad vision - I can increase the font size there.

I do! Usually I discover new blogs via Substack and read them via email client

you probably mean that python is not static typed.

Microsoft is hardware company too. Surface, Xbox, computer peripherals, etc.

Or any other solution with electrolytes (Gatorade, DripDrop) etc

> Add to that the fact that you don't really own the e-books you "buy" through Amazon, just like pretty much every other digital "purchase" these days, and that's enough for me to never buy one.

True. That's why I prefer to buy books on other platforms, sometimes directly on authors website. And nothing stops me from reading them on Kindle. Maybe that's the reason why I don't understand the problem here.

One of my favorite movies. There is a context to it though: dystopian post apocalyptical society where all planet natives are telepathic and can read each other's thoughts.

Isn't that what taxes are for?

Booking.com or frankly any other aggregator are great until the moment you have a problem and need to talk to their customer service. In that moment you realize that Booking.com does nothing that you can't do by yourself with same effort.

I don't have a lot of experience with Golang and AI, I think Rails can give you different kind of productivity.

From what I know (please correct me if I am wrong) most people use AI to create scaffolding and automate all boring and repetitive tasks in a project. So code still needs to be written, you just outsource it to AI helper.

In Rails you write less code and concentrate on business logic because everything boring like DAL, authorization, caching is already written and tested in production.

edit: syntax

You can set default branch name for your repositories in settings. Much more straightforward than in GitLab in my opinion.

Apple Notes is pretty close to perfect for me - it's just missing Markdown support and backlinks. I did just figure out how to link notes together with the '>>' shortcut, which is a game-changer. I've tried a bunch of other apps, but I always come back to Notes.
