If you’d read the article, you’d have read that the new popover element allows CUSTOM elements, like designers love. Just without JS.

You might be projecting there.

That’s Google maps for you. Try another one, most have way better voice cues (amongst other things!).

Because a lot of people nowadays just use a browser. That’s 99% of what a computer is to them.

“What’s a filezilla?”

“go here, drop files there” instead of “download this, put this here, connect, drop your files here” makes the difference between people using your service and not using your service.

How does that compare to leaving the trees grow, say, 25 more years? You’re only comparing the action of using them in construction.

And butterchurn! Web-based.

I have my phone set to never lock automatically, so that’s one part of the equation plausible.

Try OpenLieroX

Nah I’ll just 3D print it. It’s almost 2024 baby!

Do NOT do this too much, though. I did this in my last relationship and it turned into resentment from me, while she walked all over me, knowing I would say sorry for everything. It wasn’t her fault, I should’ve protected my values more, but this is a slippery slope. However, my next partner in my opinion should take this and say something like “no, this is not your fault. Let’s work on it”.

It could go both ways. I can never change though; saying sorry is too simple for me

Confirmed

I care so little that I make a comment about it, showing how little I care.

Thanks eh! Still had that book on my list to read. :/ dude…

You might notice it if you were to stop drinking coffee for a week - slight caffeine withdrawal. Also, I think that a small percentage of the obsession does come from caffeine addiction, the anticipation of the “hit”, etc. “No noticeable effect” can also mean that you just feel normal with it, but a bit uncomfortable (or tired) without.

I wouldn’t underestimate the drug, not anymore - doing a detox made me realize how it’s still a drug that does stuff to your brain and possibly your body.

Of course, YMMV.

Ok. Well, it does happen. Happened a lot more in the past vs now.

Thing is, when I have 3 or 4 Electron apps open, they are still not using 100% "real" memory - it's all compressed if the need arises. What other apps that you use, use Electron?

Yeah, see my sibling comment. I don't know what the person you're replying to has done to their system, but I am very lazy with that too. Not at the moment, but most of the time I have 3 user accounts logged in simultaneously with their respective apps running.

Memory has never really been an issue for me, unless I try to `grep` a very (VERY) big file or something. Which makes sense, right?

I have 16GB. I have docker running 5 containers, 3 PHPStorm windows (with multiple tabs open), Orion with 17 tabs open, Slack, Fork, Sequel Ace, iTerm2 with multiple tabs (one of them running a vite server), and Calendar.app.

Memory pressure is in the green, "using" 11GB (App: 6, Wired: 2, Compressed: 3). Not swapping at all.

Slack, which as you mentioned has "Slack Helper (Renderer)" uses 250MB.

Even with 8GB this would still work perfectly fine. Biggest user is PHPStorm with 4GB.

In general I have much better experiences on MacOS with 8G of RAM than on Windows or Linux. Very happy that I have 16G on my current machine, but I feel like 90% of the stuff I do (even as a dev!) would go perfectly fine on 8G.

I feel like people are using their experience with 8GB on other platforms and projecting their experience to other people. I feel like MacOS memory management is VERY on-point.

> Was that added after you wrote your comment?

I think so - it didn't say that before I refreshed the page about a minute ago.

Being critical regardless of age is very valuable. There's this thing that if a young person does something pretty damn cool, they're made to believe it's extraordanirily good, rivalling even the best in the industry. I think it's called the "Gifted Kid Problem" in certain circles.

It happened to me with programming games; I entered competitions and even won one or two, making me believe I'm just SO good.

Now that I'm 30+ years old I still crave that same level of recognition which is basically unobtainable for me now as I'm just another cog in the system. Sure, I have some nice projects here and there and I get a compliment out of that some time, but never on the level I received while I was young.

I think it's incredibly important to give people advice on what could be improved, while still being respectful / praising of the work that's already done. That's how, in my opinion, you get a balanced individual.

That’s his money, not SpaceX money. Do you think he pays for everything out-of-pocket?

Also color blindness is universal

Well, that doesn’t seem to work at all, for me anyway. Was expecting a list of 1000+ but got 0.

Oh well!

Every human is sacred.

I really am surprised by all the “lol you buy NFT so already blind” folks. Actually pretty disgusting.

Disclaimer: I don’t own NFTs.

Homekit is one

Did you try more than once? Happened on my first try too, next few were great

If you or a random reader is on MacOS, try out Orion - a Safari fork that has support for both Chrome AND Firefox plug-ins. I can't stop using Safari... I know, I'm a dying breed, and people at work were (and still are) a bit weirded out by it, but if you're like me, Orion is a very nice alternative if you want "real" adblockers (and 10000s of other plugins) at your disposal!

Exactly. It's just a tool to visualize your own intuition. I have my own set of cards. I lay them, and see what I see. And of course, it's just me making up a story, but it has significance to me, and helps me in understanding myself better.

It's not hard to understand, yet, people find it "weird". I guess it ties in with the still-prevalent thought that mental wellbeing is something you don't really talk about. It's shameful to some people to say you're depressed, or seeing a psychologist.

Tarot AND psychologists have helped me tremendously in my depression. Tarot in particular has helped me far more than any psychologist could, just because it makes me understand where I am, what I'm stuck thinking about, and how to move forward.
