MrOxiMoron··on Elevated error rate across multiple models
Except I was having connection issue and errors through open router too
MrOxiMoron··on Kagi – Introducing Fair Pricing
Can I get this on my Netflix, Disney+, whatever too pls?
MrOxiMoron··on Kagi Assistant
I haven't found that, but even if that is true, it saves you tons of time having to filter out all the sponsored results and get to the things that actually give you the information you where searching for.
MrOxiMoron··on Hotwire: HTML Over The Wire
the Django community is pretty vocal about htmx too (in a good way)
MrOxiMoron··on Take a look at Traefik, even if you don't use containers
I love treafik, we use it with nomad/consul and docker to setup our whole infrastructure. The plugin system is also simple yet powerful and the dynamic configs are great for our customers custom domains, we can quickly see if a domain points to the right IP and put it in to get everything working. And of a domain no longer points to is we get a slack notification and it removes it from traefik so it no longer tries to get SSL certificates for it.
MrOxiMoron··on Redis is forked
at work we're still at the pre-fork drama version of elasticsearch, it works and leaves us open to pick whichever direction we want to go at a later date when we need it. The same will be for redis, it works, no need to stay up to date.
MrOxiMoron··on Show HN: Comma Separated Values (CSV) to Unicode Separated Values (USV)
/me looks at calendar, nope not April 1st yet.
MrOxiMoron··on Breaking down tasks
this, the number of times I've heard: I can't sleep those estimates to the customer. How is that a me problem? I don't care how you sell it, just know that my estimate is pretty accurate on how much time we need to build it.

And also don't expect us to work 8 hours a day doing tasks.

MrOxiMoron··on An HTML Switch Control
the biggest problem I have with it that with custom styling and bad choices in those that it will be hard to see when it's on or off. A checkbox is very clear in that regard.
MrOxiMoron··on In loving memory of square checkbox
is the bridge open when it's up or is it closed when it's up?
MrOxiMoron··on iPhone that fell from hole in Alaska 737 MAX flight is found, still open to Mail
this raises the question; what do people do with their iPhones to crack the screen? terminal velocity is not enough speed it seems.
MrOxiMoron··on Using Make – writing less Makefile
just is great, I add it everywhere, just test, just run, just fix, just shell. just works ;-)
MrOxiMoron··on Create a cute avatar from your photo. Powered by DALL-E 3
generated something that doesn't look like me at all, didn't "see" my glasses and gave me a full beard I don't have.
MrOxiMoron··on Please don't use AI to get on the global leaderboard
I made the leaderboard once, when I had to get up real early to get to work and had everything prepped to do it on my commute. Now I just do it for myself, last year I did notice copilot suggesting big pieces of code that where not always correct but at least came close (probably trained by people that did use copilot and did it earlier in the day).

I the switched copilot to the mode where it only suggests things when I ask for it and that was a lot more fun, figuring it out myself and of I got really stuck I could sometimes get a hint from someone who had a similar approach.

MrOxiMoron··on I will always prefer to work from home
I 100% agree, the commute (90+ minutes twice), the open office space where people walk in and out and interrupt even without checking if you are in a meeting or concentrating on some complex problem and the team not being there (I start early and leave early, other do both late).

and yes, the team thing is hard, but we do have office days when we all show up and have an agenda of things to discuss. That's when the team building happens!

MrOxiMoron··on Using extra Firefox profiles to make my life better
biggest problem is clicking a link outside of the browser... which one will it open in? seems to be the first opened, but then you want to open a link and that browser wants to update, so you have to restart it.. now it's not the first opened anymore, so you have to close all other browsers too before opening the first again and then the others.
MrOxiMoron··on USB-C head-to-head comparison
This demonstrates the biggest problem with usb-c: the connectors are the same, but the capabilities are very different and not visible to the naked eye.
MrOxiMoron··on New LoRa RF distance record
probably the same amateur radio people can connect to people halfway across the globe; bouncing off an atmospheric layer.
MrOxiMoron··on Using XPath in 2023
I did the same, and then allowed logged in users to define their own stylesheet. Thought it was pretty cool at the time.
MrOxiMoron··on New glass cuts carbon footprint by nearly half and is 10x more damage resistant
how is the insulation of this new glass, great if it saves emmisions on the production side, but if it lets all the heat in my house fly outside it won't save a thing.
MrOxiMoron··on Effective Git as a solo developer (2021)
Don't confuse commit to a branch and pushing, I often commit (amend) locally but I never push till that part is done.
MrOxiMoron··on Working with Docker containers with the dexec bash script
In don't see it, it helps you with the easy part that is the same across projects, but you still need to know the project specifics to use it.

I use "just" these days, per project, autocompletion with explanation what each command does.

MrOxiMoron··on The rule says, “No vehicles in the park”
you give emergency vehicles an exception to the rule, that was specifically mentions as not being the intent. the rule is no vehicles in the park, an ambulance is a vehicle so it broke the rule. if then punishment is applied and what is something else, in the basis it's a vehicle in the park.
MrOxiMoron··on Ask HN: How do you not take criticism of your work personally?

MrOxiMoron··on Slack’s free plan change is causing an exodus
my first thought was: why not move to discord for you hobby project?
MrOxiMoron··on Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection
I've had this on my phone for ages, great puzzles and no ads.
MrOxiMoron··on It costs $110k to fully gear up in Diablo Immortal
it won't be available in the Netherlands or Belgium, because we have laws against them, now they just don't release the games here. I hope more of the EU will join us with similar laws so it will become impactful.
MrOxiMoron··on Kindle, ePub, and Amazon’s love of reinventing wheels
in what world is kindle the defacto Ereader? here in the Netherlands the book market is dominated by bol.com, which has a deal with Kobo, so here it's all epub and Kobo e-readers.
MrOxiMoron··on Show HN: I redesigned my landing page to be as unprofessional as possible
