Honestly, there's nothing better than the Cracking the Cryptic app for sudoku, called "Sven's Sudoku Pad." People who love sudoku have congregated around that channel. It's updated regularly and there are a lot of puzzles that can be imported into it. It gives you very helpful pencil mark controls including colors and differently placed marks. There really just hasn't been another app that compares to the level of production for this Sven's.
Chat is not asynchronous communication. It's not the best synchronous communication, sure, but it's certainly not asynchronous. Dropping typing indicators isn't necessarily going to make everything more asynchronous. There are business patterns and pressures that push us to need realtime or semi-realtime answers. And so often, the tool we use for that is chat. True asynchronous communication is a change in business, not just the tools we use.
Typing indicators can be useful in some situations. It's nice not having to wait for someone to finish a thought to know that an issue is being addressed. Heavyweights can jump into a conversation and pause it immediately so people aren't spinning their wheels trying to figure out something they really don't know much about.
It's also useful in 1:1 chats to know if the person on the other side is there or not. If I don't see an indicator (or read-receipt) in the next few seconds, I'll go make another cup of coffee.
Driving to work is not a choice for a lot of people particularly lower class. Our cities our built around cars. As people move out of the city to save money, that makes driving even more necessary and makes public transit less of a viable option. This program relies on a very naive belief that people can control their amount of driving, but we don't control sprawl at an individual level, we don't control infrastructure. Who is this going to benefit but the bougie Tesla owners who work remotely anyway?
You're making some assumptions. Why can't programmers be workers in the coop and be part of the equation? Why can't forms of capital available to other startups be available to coops?
I can't believe these questionnaires have become so pervasive that it's spawning an industry. I hate these things. They are such a burden on the small, niche software vendor.
> Economic growth matters because most people want their lives to improve every year.
Improve how? Should I need economic growth to get better health care? This whole techno-utopian argument seems to hinge on extractive growth because it fails to actually tackle the problems of inequality by providing true redistribution of wealth in any meaningful sense. Trickle-down AI is a sham.
I'm very skeptical of this. It doesn't seem like something that could scale. By accessing database files through PHP, you are begging for race conditions while serving multiple requests simultaneously. At best, you will hit write-errors while other requests are working with the file. SQLite has a good explanation of the problem here: https://sqlite.org/faq.html#q5
I went into this article with so much skepticism, but yeah, the author addresses all of my concerns. This is a cool project and now I get why you'd do it this way.
Is the GPL not just as teenager-like with its radical openness? Wanting to maintain your values through a software license feels passive and sneaky and awkward, but that's how we do it. And if you value your labor and the labor of others, in a way the GPL does not, why not write that into the license?
The problem is that the co-operative model is not successfully funded in the initial phases. There is little infrastructure for worker-owned businesses in this country. There is little guidance for getting investment and start-up capital when the overall aim is to primarily put profits into owners' hands and not investors'.
We need a government that supports these efforts first. A good first step would be to pass first-right-of-refusal laws.
1. Components are sort of antithetical to the Tailwind CSS ethos of atomic styling. Of course, examples of markup and class arrangements are certainly helpful, but at the end of the day you are still always going to have a unique markup in the end. And according to their license, those customized components are now under their Tailwind UI license.
2. What counts as a component? What if Tailwind UI produces a licensed component that is a single div with a single border class? Could it be that someone with no prior knowledge or access to this component have accidentally already created the same markup elsewhere? Would that be an infringement?
Frankly, I really enjoy using Tailwind CSS, but I'm a little nervous now to even use the original project in my work.
> WireGuard is currently working toward a stable 1.0 release. Current snapshots are generally versioned "0.0.YYYYMMDD" or "0.0.V", but these should not be considered real releases and they may contain security quirks (which would not be eligible for CVEs, since this is pre-release snapshot software). This text will be removed after a thorough audit.
And then it all falls apart when Plaid gets hacked and millions of people's _actual bank account usernames and password_ get stolen. That is not a safe premise to start a business (or to acquire one).
