Re:Over 80% of Sunscreen Performed Below Their Labelled Efficacy

You essentially describe the motivation for Stiftung Warentest [0]. They’re massively successful in Germany, and I rely on their tests for many consumer goods I buy. Access isn’t free though, typically costs around 5EUR per test. Coincidentally, they recently tested sunscreen [1].

It made sense to me as part of the broader theme of separating work activities from private ones. And that separation being the smart action.
Re:Researchers, please replace SQLite with DuckDB now

Always a red flag if "potential benefits" cover a broad spectrum of unrelated symptoms: depression, cancer prevention, cognitive ability, heart health, diabetes, digestive health, even wound healing. A dodgy article at best.
Re:Why is front-end development so unstable? (2018)

I enjoyed reading your article, thanks for writing it. I think your recommendation to new devs to focus on Next.js in 2018 (!) was prescient.
> I no longer think front-end suffers the instability people accuse it of.
Do you mind elaborating why you believe this is the case?
