Would love to see the code behind this. Side note, I'll continue to ask, if anyone has an invite drop it here!


Simple opinionated answer: .io and .so

A decade ago .io meant you were trendy and in tech, now it means you’re in tech.

Today .so means you’re trendy and in tech.


I was surprised by the sudden tech boom at the Horn of Africa.


notion started the .so trend didnt they? follow up question.... why? whats 'so' short for?


Shared object, it’s the traditional extension of dynamically likeable c++ libs.


thanks didnt know that, was thinking SOftware


It's short for Somalia. I don't think Notion has ever said why they chose it, though?


As far as I know, yes. Namecheap markets it as being short for software, or social.


This is both funny and sad. The author’s difficulties were almost certainly caused by their mental illness.

As an aside, as a Canadian it’s always amazing reading about American CS grads with no practical skills start at a salary higher than I will likely ever have. What a difference a few kilometres make.


>What a difference a few kilometres make.

Well, that or finding a company looking for applicants on TN visas. Remember, it's a 30% raise at the same published dollar value.


A family is visiting the grandmother before her medically assisted death due to extreme chronic pain. Should the children be explained to what’s going on before they say goodbye? If so, is a book made for children possibly a helpful way to approach this topic?

The “kids can’t learn about X” arguments never seem fully thought out to me, more like reactions to triggering words. Sex ed, gay people, euthanasia, etc.


Did the gov founded a book talking about only death? This looks more like advertisement

You can barely explain death to a child, but you're going to explain the details of assisted death, maybe how the state thought a stair lift for grandmother was too expensive so they suggested assisted death instead

Disabled Canadian Army veteran Paralympian blasts government for offering to EUTHANIZE her when she complained about how long it was taking to install stairlift at her home https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11497589/Paraplegic...


Absolutely. This is one last attempt to frame his failure and giving up as being his dedication to “vox populi”.


Right after a massively unpopular policy decision.

He can't control the narrative anymore.



You might be interested in Common Crawl. They crawl the internet and make the full dataset downloadable.

I don’t understand why he presents this as a mystery. They both adhere to this App Store rule:

“If your app includes user-generated content from a web-based service, it may display incidental mature “NSFW” content, provided that the content is hidden by default and only displayed when the user turns it on via your website.“


Details: The engine I'm using here is Midjourney. Because there's no ability for consistency of characters (plus general engine limitations), I've found it works great for backgrounds. Then, characters can be quickly doodled over top.


pretty cool! Wish to know what's next (the story) :)

I tried dalle2 for comic drawing. not very good. it works better on other styles (oil painting, realistic photography)


I'd be interested in hearing the experiences of people who switched from React Native to Flutter, or vice versa. Especially those who needed web support.
