Them maintaining a page of gotchas is a really cool idea - https://immich.app/cursed-knowledge

> There is a user in the JavaScript community who goes around adding "backwards compatibility" to projects. They do this by adding 50 extra package dependencies to your project, which are maintained by them.

This is a spicy one, would love to know more.

It links to a commit; the removed deps are by GitHub user ljharb.

It looks like a very cool product. Though it's too expensive for a regular guy who treats the cooking as a chore.

Do you use the WhatsApp cloud API? Isn't that expensive for a $3/yr price?

The app sends WhatsApp texts through Twilio's API. It's not exactly the same pricing model, but so far is approximately the same as SMS costs

But isn't the OP talking about local network while Jean-Baptiste Kempf is talking about the internet?

The Ink & Switch guys always have the best-est of ideas!

WSL is a landmine of bad design. I lost all my data once, and that incident made me switch to a Mac.

Here's how you can lose all your data - and Microsoft engineers won’t care: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/8992 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/9830 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/9049#issuecomment-26...

I read your issue, and it's not so different from `sudo rm -rf /` as opposed to an actual design flaw.

`sudo rm -rf /` requires you to be a superuser or provide a password, whereas running `wsl --unregister` does not require elevated privileges.

I've hit real data loss bugs in WSL, as well— files disappearing, sometimes even rendering the WSL guest unbootable.

Mac IS the Sotate of the Art at the developer experience. The only annoyance was the virtualisation on Arm but having UTM/Multipass/Virttualbox now, it is the best. If you are up to too many containers, a linux box would be more preferable.

Not everyone wants to be a CEO. Some people just wanna write some good code and contribute to the world.

Very cool. This can also be used for LLM cost estimation. Basically any cost estimation I suppose. I use cloudflare workers a lot and have a few workers running for a variable amount of time. This could be useful to calculate a ball park figure of my infra cost. Thank you!

This is amazing! We need more automation in the world.

But how do they train the cow to stand in line to get milked? Why would a cow patiently wait in line to be milked?

Full udders are painful. For humans too. If mom starts breastfeeding and then abruptly stops, the boobs will swell up and ache horribly for several days (until lactation stops due to lack of stimulation.)

You don’t need to train the cow. After it’s milked once with the machine, it associates the thing with pain relief (plus a little snack to reinforce.)

Great article and great website. I love that every external link showed a favicon like image next to it.
