And for some non-geoblocked music, if you want to actually purchase the song as MP3, there's no way unless you have a Mac or Windows PC to install iTunes (too bad for Linux users).

https://uk.7digital.com/ has a lot of songs available in MP3 format, but not as many as on iTunes.

The most difficult thing is to break the ice.

Once this is done, everything feels easy. The trick is to have a rough idea of what you'll say and just take the plunge. And practice.

We all fear rejection. Once you get past that fear, you realise most people are reasonable human beings just like you.

If you're curious about the topic, I recommend the book Rejection Proof, by Jia Jiang.

Might be a coincidence but for the first time last night, my son's sleep projector[0] didn't stop after 1h like it does normally.

I guess this could be related to it? (we are in Montreal)

I doubt these toys are protected from those kinds of events.

I remember asking you for this, so Thank you so much! It works quite well from what I can see.

Small UI issue: on Desktop, the left sidebar should be scrollable, because now on Firefox I can't reach the "Language" menu item in the search results view, unless I zoom-out.

I'm curious what is specific to Phoenix that made this so productive for that project? Is the frontend using something like HTMX?

We'd need a "YAML, the good parts".

> there's this trend of purego implementations which usually aim towards zero dependencies besides the stdlib and golang.org/x.

I'm interested in knowing whether there's something intrinsic to Go that encourages such a culture.

IMO, it might be due to the fact that Go mod came rather late in the game, while NPM was introduced near the beginning of NodeJS. But it might be more related to Go's target audience being more low-level, where such tools are less ubiquitous?

Her biography on Elon Musk is also pretty good as far as depicting someone who did hard things. I was quite impressed by his tenacity.

Also, it has all the encryptions functions one would need to implement authentication mechanisms, in pure SQL.

More peculiar devices to run Doom: https://www.vice.com/en/article/qkjv9x/a-catalogue-of-all-th...

I think there should be a github repo or a wikipedia page, to add those as they come :)

I was one of them. I was doing some web design/frontend at that time (2005-2006), and the whole Ruby on Rails movement seemed so different, easy to learn, and yet quite productive. And you could develop on a Mac (!!!. Windows XP was my OS at that time). All the rails screencasts I saw featured TextMate, on a Mac. And so the first ActionScript gig I did was to pay for my shiny new Mac Mini.

Looking back to it, it seems like a stupid cargo cult effect, but Rails is the main reason I switched to the Mac since then.
