  1. I would love to know where you read this!
  2. If English is your first language, this is the funniest comment I've seen today by a margin.
  3. You can still send files over bluetooth on devices that aren't iPhones. Even Macs support this
  4. Saw cloudflare go down before my very eyes on colonist.io in Australia
  5. There's an option
  6. I am currently being radicalised against OOP because of one specific senior in my team that uses it relentlessly, no matter the problem domain. I recognise there are problems where OOP is a good abstraction, but there are so many places where it isn't.

    I suspect many OOP haters have experienced what I'm currently experiencing, stateful objects for handing calculations that should be stateless, a confusing bag of methods that are sometimes hidden behind getters so you can't even easily tell where the computation is happening, etc

  7. Mastodon with build in RSS feeds, repost an article from an RSS feed and your repost is really just new mastodon post
  8. This could be done using RSS and feed:// uri scheme if it was more popular.

  9. Hi Matt, I purchased the Android app in 2016. I never signed up for the paid syncing service, but never had ads within the app until this week. Is it the new policy that users who purchased the app but never paid for syncing will now have ads, or is this a bug?

    Appreciate you being public in places like this. I sent a similar message to Pocketcasts support but received an AI that seems to disagree with your comment here.

  10. I prefer to have the option. There are many sound systems i'd like to use that are wired only.
  11. You might want to look in a dictionary and see what `subtract` means.

    4May-1May is meaningful to me, and frankly I do believe that it is meaningful to you. I do not think you have thought about what we are saying at all, and think it's shocking that you have an opinion about something you clearly don't understand.

  12. Open PRs from 2013, makes me feel better
  13. Computer Science as a field predates computers. Computer Science is the subsection of maths that answers "what is computable".

    Dijkstra line sums it up well "Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes."

  14. If your CS degree never requires you to write a program complex enough to warrant version control you should get your money back. I agree that the theory is more important and tools should not be focused on, but exercising the theory you have learnt is extremely rewarding.
  15. > limited JS runtime of the PDF engine

    humanity has gone too far

  16. Seeing posts linked to my little mastodon instance is feels so strange, in a good way
  17. This is fantastic. So straightforward, gets the job done.
  18. Go use facebook then. This project seems fun.
  19. Calling the AGPL not open source is crazy
  20. For my personal site I create RSS feeds for all the main posts, but also an RSS feed for each tag. If someone only wants to read my posts about TypeScript they can just follow the TypeScript tag instead of the main feed.
