Re:(On | No) Syntactic Support for Error Handling on Tuesday June 03, 2025 @01:18PM (#44172338)
Oh No! Is a much better name for error handling.
Cool! I had thought about doing the same but in a Chrome extension that would use Llama 3.2 with WebGPU, but when I tested it, it was very slow and sometimes crashed the browser.

I code and document code and imho Claude is superior, try to tell Gpt to draw a mermaid chart to explain a code flow... the mermaid generated will have syntax errors half of the time.
Yup, It's a shame that they're going to close the channel

Imho IDs are more explicit, and a bless when working with large codebase apps, when trying to finding the related code to an element just grab the id and search for it.
perception != reality
Prompt or it didn't happen
Hate to be that guy but "You need to enable JavaScript to run this app."
Re:Penpot, Open Source Figma alternative, raises $8M in funding on Thursday September 29, 2022 @03:58PM (#33026243)
IMHO not a minor strength, getting pixel perfect designs when SVGs are involved in Figma is near impossible, they are rendered in a very different way and in some cases the differences are huge.
Re:I miss the programmable web (2021) on Saturday July 30, 2022 @02:29AM (#32284774)
I got my first dev job at a call center because bookmarklets, I was a phone operator and hacked some internal websites to improve the UX and the speed, everyone ended using these bookmarklets (coded in word and then minified running another script in the browser console).

Grease monkey is still alive, I added voice recording and speech to text transcription to Slack before they did.

Transfered from Binance to a Coinbase BTC address
Re:Did I just lose half a million dollars? on Sunday January 30, 2022 @07:43AM (#30136665)
Yup, their response was crypto or nothing
Re:Did I just lose half a million dollars? on Sunday January 30, 2022 @02:47AM (#30134938)
I lost 4.5K transfering USDT from Binance to Coinbase From time to time I check if the money is still there.

The last time I asked Coinbase support they didn't even bother to answer me.

I was not investing, one of my contractors unilaterally decided to pay me in crypto.

Love that no-buzzword approach (:
Re:Explore Seasonal Fruit and Vegetables in Europe on Monday March 29, 2021 @07:21AM (#26620052)
The idea is great but IMO the execution can be improved, geolocate and use the current date to avoid 2 drop downs
Totally agree, and this kind of solutions only blocks the laptop but the students can use their smartphones to search for the answers.
Only available resources, modern IDEs are like hardware vendors wet dream came true.

A croned node script that parses the AWS RSS status page every 10min and alerts with some sounds + notifications (zenity).

Firefox on Android here, every animation works flawlessly.
Re:Cameras and Lenses on Friday December 11, 2020 @05:52PM (#25392642)
I'm speechless, even in a mid-end android phone every animation is smooth, is like dark magic to me.
Re:Everything you need to know about UX/UI at a high-level on Saturday November 07, 2020 @04:19PM (#25019514)
I tried to read the content but IMO there are too many memes, make the content unreadable.

What a beautiful piece of code and UI!

Re:iOS 14 is available today on Wednesday September 16, 2020 @04:31PM (#24497433)
Mixed feelings here, as a developer I would love to send push to iOS, as a user I agree with you, every time I check my parent's android I have to spend a lot of time revoking permissions from websites.

On android these notifications are abused to send shitty content, maybe a change at the OS level to warn the user in a more prominent way? Like these modals that won't allow you click until X secs have passed.

Re:iOS 14 is available today on Wednesday September 16, 2020 @03:59PM (#24496964)
Push notifications on PWAs? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yep, I have a raspberry Pi with gitlab runner and works great.

Still orders of magnitude less energy-dense than jet fuel.
