My wife would love one of these.

She's still bitter we didn't get the Sony dog a decade ago.

There's complex and complicated.

I think we can have complex things, but they can be simple (to use, to understand, to manage). But it is really hard to make a complex thing simple. The straightforward way is to make it complicated, and most items remain that way.

The wikipedia article names them in the first paragraph "sandal-boots".

So maybe they were both

(If I were to see someone wear them today, I would call them sandals)

I couldn't read the article as it read like AI.

And I am fatigued by the AI style in all code comments, reviews, PRs etc :(

Anyone remember when hardware prices used to go down?

I never heard of Jellyfin until now (I might have been living under a rock). Plex has been... fine, though this looks really interesting so I might switch over.

Indeed it feels like I do the same work, ask the same questions, get the same result.

But somehow the cost has doubled in the last few months.

I could not read the whole piece. The phrasing smells like AI too much.

Shouldn't you include the ad costs in your margin calculation?

New comment by k3liutZu in "Forking Styled Components"

k3liutZu — Tue, 23 Sep 2025 13:52:26 +0000

One of the main "problems" we solved with adopting styled-components back in 2016 was styles colocation where more junior members managed to create a several thousand line CSS file with a mess of selectors which we couldn't safely figure out which is used where.

My current plan is to transition to CSS Modules which should allow preserving most (if not all) of the current styled-components DX and advantages.

k3liutZu — Mon, 04 Aug 2025 14:23:12 +0000

My fellow designer friends would often do this. But they would start from actual fonts and do slight (or more than slight) adjustments to them to match what they wanted as an outcome.

Yep, that's the usefulness right now.

I might have like a cargo bike if I didn't like on top of a hill. And if I didn't have 6 months of cold dark weather with snow / ice covering the roads.

I just booted up my 2009 MacBook Pro since it's the only machine I still have with a CD/DVD drive. Some keys are not working (eg R, T, P, probably others) so I had to use the accessibility on screen keyboard.

I was surprised it still booted up and I was able to use the optical drive.
