Good at research, terrible at product?

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Garin_Death_Ray if anyone else was wondering.

You need example product pages.

I like you blog and tried to add it to my feed, but it doesn't appear to have an RSS or Atom feed. I know beehiiv supports feeds - any chance you could switch it on?

That's an interesting - and maybe correct - point. Looking at the examples, it seems very long winded and not something I would want to write myself - but maybe I don't need to care about that anymore, as you say!

This looks interesting, and I've been keeping an eye on this for a while - but does anyone have experience from actually using this for real?

I see people are doing scripts or other things to remove shorts from their feeds, but there is a simpler solution. Take your RSS URL of a channel, e.g.:

https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCxSGC9B...

Replace the `channel_id` with `playlist_id` and replace `UC` with `UULF`. This prefix will only list normal videos:

https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?playlist_id=UULFxSG...

No one knows how many vulnerabilities there are in closed source medical record software - because we can't check. There are _probably_ loads though, because that medical software is super terrible in every way that we _can_ check.

Before. I could, probably, now get an LLM to refactor everything to be inside the statechart - but I'm not sure if I actually want that.

I've tried to use state charts for frontend development a couple of times, but bounced off. IIRC, I was using xstate with vue, and I found that they were hard to retrofit to existing systems, and where I tried, I found that the boundary between the part of the system controlled by xstate and the rest of the system problematic. It felt like it would work better with everything "inside" the statechart, but that's a big lift for an existing codebase.

Recent Claude will just look at your code and copy what you've been doing, mostly, in an existing codebase - without being asked. In a new codebase, you can just ask it to "be conscice, keep it simple" or something.

There are a bunch of libraries that will do this - here's one example of a python one: https://github.com/yuce/pyswip - and a ruby one: https://github.com/preston/ruby-prolog

Interesting! There are ~2 starlink satellites re-entering the atmosphere _every day_ now - and this is only set to increase. I wonder if this was caused by starlink debris?

You can still do this, it all still works, technically. You will have a spam/malware/security issues that wouldn't have been an issue back in the day. You will also have discoverability issues - but that hasn't actually changed, if it's just for you or your friends.

The store in the case of pass, is a plain text file, whose contents are encrypted strings. If you trust the encryption, you can put it anywhere you like. Keep the keys secret and safe, though!

If you could mash this together with this: https://www.newsminimalist.com/ - that would be great.

Dark Mode, and media queries are both just options/hints - they are implemented on the client side - by the user agent.

The actual problem is that most browsers have forgotten that they're "user agents" - and have stipped away all the configurations and options that they used to have, removing control from the user.

Vivaldi is still very configurable, and still behaves like the users agent.

I want this too! I discovered a really esotieric way to get this: https://duncanlock.net/blog/2024/01/04/super-fast-reader-mod... - but it would be really nice if there was just a way to switch reader mode on permenantly in modern browsers. Apparently Safari can do that, but afaik no other browsers support it.

I really wish browsers were more modular - if the rendering engine and network fetching were easily separable - and you could insert your own steps into that pipeline, you could do all sorts of neat stuff. If I could insert some code of my own in between the fetch and the render, that would be ideal - strip out all ads and malware, optionally remove all scripts or css, run it through readability, etc...

Great idea!

- What country/ies do you accept users from and which jurisdiction do you store their data in?

- Get a HIPPA/GDPR/PHIPA audit by a legal professional ASAP!

Inkscape does have multi page, now, if you still want that.

It's all a language trick.

The UK climate is, currently, very good at growing grass. You can continuously graze cattle all year round in most of the country, as long as you rotate them between fields every few days. If you have enough space, by the time they get back round, the grass is back. The cow shit fertilizes the grass, and silage made on the farm does a lot of the winter feed top up. As long as the density isn't too high, it can be pretty low input.

There are a bunch of jirafs type things on GitHub, fwiw. Eg. https://github.com/coddingtonbear/jirafs
