You could use an extension like uBlock origin to write your own filter that removes embedded tweets from any and all sites, e.g. something like:

##.embed-twitter

badsite.com##.embed-twitter

Something like Electron which allows you to create cross platform software using JS. I know, I know, JS to create a win 10 app? Yup, it's probably the easiest way right now. There are many email related apps that use Electron, maybe they can help you decide if the framework is right for you: https://www.electronjs.org/apps?q=email

As for which editor/IDE to use, Visual Studio Code is a decent and free text editor with tons of plugins. Then there's always a proper IDE like Webstorm by JetBrains that offers much more functionality and convience out of the box.

We are talking about 27 countries with vastly different governments and cultures, of course there's bound to be drama when dealing with a pandemic as difficult as covid-19 for the first time. But I'll say it's been disappointing seeing how tribal some countries have become when push comes to shove.

I really dislike this trend of people doing content marketing directly on HN. Especially when it's shallow.

It's a shame that Firefox Android still hasn't got its shit together wrt add-ons. The current selection is abysmal. It would be nice to have the same addon setup on desktop and mobile and have settings sync across devices.

Probably PHP and client-side JS. PHP is the only server-side language I know that works with even the dinkiest and most locked-down shared hosting. There are no installation steps to follow or packages to maintain.

I did an update on several apps and now it seems to be fixed.

I've suddenly been having issues with Fastmail and tikTok and I wonder if it's because of the same issue?

Because people have businesses to run instead of fucking around with latest bullshit trend in web dev. I doubt that JamStack will be a thing in 10 years whereas I can easily see WordPress existing in another 20 years.

I would say this is one of the great myths of globalization and that we should offers consumers plenty of competitive offers from the EU primarily.

EU has a total lack of vision when it comes to in-region manufacturing. Imagine if the Union decided that 50% of all goods would have to be made in the Union within 20 years...

Even when it comes to Win desktop development, Microsoft is fast losing ground to initiatives like Electron [0], especially when it comes to new consumer software. If the trend continues, MS frameworks and libraries will mostly be used by legacy enterprise software (and maybe Photoshop...). Can't say that I'm surprised considering how fractured Microsoft ecosystem of libraries, frameworks, and platforms for development has become.

They also have a major problem with not listening to their very loyal desktop developers, who have to face a reality where Visual Basic is rendered obsoletely, where .net core is a thing - ops no it's not, etc.

[0] the list of software built using Electron is insane https://www.electronjs.org/apps

Between night and morning. It's quiet, I have snackies and NA Twitch is live and kicking.

You did not recreate Shopify in a week. You think you did but you only implemented a custom solution that does 5% of what Shopify offers, including the expensive stuff like compliance, support, etc.

No sane business is going to use a random dev with a total custom e-commerce solution when they could throw a couple of dollars at shopify each month and get 100x the value.

PDFs is such a pita to handle. Firefox still only handles basic PDFs, anything beyond that, like fillable forms, is going to require a 3rd party solution. Just give me a full featured editor already so I don't need to use some sus site.

Any industry where compliance is regulated by law, i.e. healthcare, finance, military, etc.

Shopify offers a full ecom platform and let's you launch in days if you really have to. Upfront you aren't paying anything. Creating Shopify's functionality will take you years and hundreds of thousands of dollars to develop.

The only ideation/brainstorming tool that I've stuck with is Notepad++. I will typically create a folder for each project with a project.txt in it (this makes it easier to search all projects using N++). The project files almost only use indentation for hierarchy and no other formatting. I think this simple and fast setup is why I keep coming back to Notepad++ after more than a decade.

Ooh I really enjoyed this, it's a nice way to expand on your color name vocab. I wonder if there is an equivalent for Pantone?

You notice copy pasta vomit in every niche, not matter how small it is. Like the other day I was doing research on a specific dog breed and found the same phrases over and over again in the top ranking sites regardless of their industry (insurance, food manufacturer, online shop, etc).

Amazing content is a goodmine and very powerful marketing and I'm surprised when major companies don't get that you need dedicated professionals to create killer content and not random freelancers who churn out trite crap.

The single dev has their reputation and professional career to lose whereas companies can and regularly engage in all kinds of legal and or judo to avoid any responsibility towards users.

Why stop there? Web apps can trivially be taken down if your domain registrar, hosting provider, datacenter partner or payment solution decides to kick you out.

Repeating this same line is just harmful noise at this point. Rather, we should - legally - demand more from tech utility platforms like Google, Facebook or Apple.

Creating game mods and levels is fun. Even something as basic as Roblox can teach a kid the basics of developing while they have lots of fun. Fortnite enables lots of level building too. Beyond that, you have Unreal Engine if you really want to go all in.

I'm not a huge React fan but you can't blame the tool when the root problems stem from obviously poor management practices by the consultant and the client.

Why was the consultant/dev even allowed to pick React for what sounds like a Microsoft shop most familiar with desktop development? It's the responsibility of the consultant to suggest the most suitable tech stack, not go along whatever idea the client CxO has conjured up in his mind or whatever tool they tinker with for their personal projects.

Microsoft has a robust ecosystem for developing web apps, and I'm pretty sure the most sane thing would have been migrating to a .net based web framework and not React. Even a cursory talk with the customers outsurcing partner would probably have confirmed this. Instead, a poorly understood tool was used that the outsurcing partner has little to no experience with.

Just because you don't care about your privacy and the way companies handle your data doesn't mean others should suffer the same date. As for changing your diapers, there are services for that, too.

You should teach history at college.

It does on Firefox Android.

Is it supposed to link to a sign up page?
