Again?

Why even write an article with such little detail?

It seems all the people criticising CSS in JS are doing it at runtime, like styled-component users.

Mild purple would be a better name

Any time I see criticism of CSS in JS, and a move to CSS modules, I get sad they didn’t just do a bit more research. You can have both, while also not shipping any JS runtime for CSS in JS! And with TypeScript support.

TIL my banking app goes via satellite internet /s

I have no idea what that quote is trying to say...

Not sure but I'm getting really sad reading anything and seeing this AI speak everywhere.

I remember it being pretty useful on phone. Now, it can't even "like" a song when I'm driving and I want it to add a song to my Spotify favourites list. It could do a few months ago, now it refuses with "sorry there was a problem with the app".

I've had to resort to asking it to take a screenshot so I can go find the song later. Three quarters of the time it never saves the screenshot though, despite seeing the screen flash out of the corner of my eye.

Their very first attempt is arguably the best one there. I was surprised they didn't like it much and kept going. Then the "Stamp / Letterpress Style (Modernised)" was the only other good one.

So of the two designs made, only two were good, the rest was quite bad and lost all meaning.

How does it compare to the others? I started trying to use Zinc but I get lost in all the vocabulary and literature which assumes you already have a background in it.

Does this include all the image metadata and who knows what else?

This is amazing. I want to build this. Curious about the authors “full garden” link, surely he doesn’t get that many birds in such a small space of time in his garden, unless he lives next to a park I suppose?

I yearn for the simplicity of rrdtool and Cacti and all that.

I despise trying to setup Grafana with its constant moving goals.

This is a poor retort considering how well known and infamous "MLP" and "bronies" are on the internet.

Off topic but is there anything like Hacker News but without AI posts?

I've always thought it a bizarre and unusual "requirement" that swap gets an entire partition. Windows has it as a file too. At least with this approach, if you change the amount of RAM in your computer, you don't need to go resize the swap partition if you want them to match.

That doesn't match my experience at all. I had a Foregjo instance on a Raspberry Pi, and maybe it's typical SD card issues, but the number of times that Forgejo has crashed because it locked its own database and couldn't continue and the number of times repos I mirror from GitHub just mysteriously stop syncing is quite probably the same number of times GitHub has been down this year.

You sound like a SystemD developer.

Just solder?

I started using computers in the era where customisation and user preferences were “allowed” by software companies. Think the Windows 98 or even Windows 7 theme dialog vs modern Windows. I personally reject this seemingly forced binary choice of light and dark.

Because of this for my site I have four themes, light, summer sunshine, forest, and dark. I’ve seen some sites where the theme is an RGB colour picker even.

In regards to the article, that’s a lot of consternation and frustrating statements about toggles and tri-state toggles. A simple button with a dynamic icon works well as soon as you want to cycle through more than two choices.

The people making PRs like this. Clearly,

I don't understand the premise, is this saying short form posts (dare I call them Tweets) on Bluesky are somehow a replacement for long form blog posts?

Well this would be an improvement over my former NHS GP practice deciding the best way for me to come off antidepressants was immediately stopping them without renewing the prescription or even discussing it with me! I think they just forgot to renew the prescription.

Even the README… ugh.

> no state that matters

What system prompt did you use?

I think someone did something similar for passing trains. Does anyone remember?

> Opens the front door

This is the most recent AI slop phrase the models produce, keep an eye out you'll see it everywhere.

Are you suggesting there is no middle ground and that simply knowing if a USB-C cable is a USB C cable or a fake one can't be done with a cheap tester?

The "content not viewable in your region" images really sets the tone.

I care.
