People really love jumping through hoops to avoid spending five dollars.

This is not about bears at all. Very disappointed.

This is a great direction! I would love to be able to take trains across Europe instead of flying.

I'm in the early stages of building a headless CMS you can use with your existing website. A few other tools do this, but I noticed that none of them are made for writing, and the editing experience is lacking.
So, instead of having people write content in Google Docs or somewhere else and then copying it into the CMS, I want to create a place where you can enjoy writing and publishing your content.
If this sounds interesting to you, you can try it at https://pmkin.io/ :)
This wouldn't have happened if Android used Javascript.

Your brownies are probably going to suck. Just because you can't be arsed to read more than two sentences about how to do something doesn't mean others can't.

The weekend is coming up. I bet you a $100 that you can't do that.
Microservices are great, even for small companies. Change my mind.
I would compare writing code without Copilot to writing code without Intellisense and autocompletion. Sure you can do it, it's just going to be a lot slower and more work.
Isn't /r/leagueoflegends/ one of the biggest subreddits?

You should probably test it on Safari as everything that runs on iOS will run through Safari.
This talk is pretty good:

But other than that, it's like building most types of software. It's scary when you start and don't know where to go. Start with a small loop. Implement it. Extend it. Refactor it.

Why would I appreciate seeing more generic ads?

I think a lot of us can recognize this feeling when you have deployed big changes. Everything seems to be working fine, but you just don't trust it.

The two are not mutually exlusive. It's a good piece of content that at the same time advertises SingeStore. Everybody wins.
And if you are afraid of bias, it's pretty obvious that it will look at the things from a SingleStore perspective as it's on their website.
