And just like that, there goes 50% of it's reason to exist

I had one of these around 2011! Used it to host a websocket server - a novelty at the time - during a conference talk, and it held up to 30+ clients before dying.

+1 to this. I seriously believe frontend was more productive in the 2010-2015 era than now, despite the flaws in legacy tech. Projects today have longer timelines, are more complex, slower, harder to deploy, and a maintenance nightmare.

I remember maintaining webpack-based projects, and those were not exactly a model of simplicity. Nor was managing a fleet of pet dev instances with Puppet.

Puppet isn’t a front end problem, but I do agree on Webpack - which is one reason it wasn’t super common. A lot of sites either didn’t try to bundle things or had simple Make-level workflows which were at least very simple, and at the time I noted that these often performed similarly: people did, and still do, want to believe there’s a magic go-faster switch for their front end which obviates the need to reconsider their architectural choices but anyone who actually measured it knew that bundlers just didn’t deliver savings on that scale.

I do kind of miss gulp and wish there was a modern TS version. Vite is mighty powerful, but pretty opaque.

Webpack came out in late 2012 and took a few years to take over, thankfully. I was lucky to avoid it at dayjob™ until around 2019.

I'm not so sure those woes are unique to frontend development.

    brew list sqlite

gives you the installed path, works for any formula.

Neat. What I wasn't able to find was the dynamic library, just the `litestream` executable. Was there some secret you used for the litestream dylib? Thanks in advance!

Looks like you need to build it yourself: https://litestream.io/guides/vfs/

Got it....you beat me to it. I had just figured that part out!! I didn't understand that part. ALSO, and this might be helpful for others, in the releases section, if you expand the little blue link at the bottom that says something like "see the other 35 assets", then the VFS extension will be downloadable from there!

Thanks for humouring me! :D

Not long ago I turned on my original iPod touch (2007), to see how the keyboard felt and if I was romanticising the past, and guess what?

Absolute perfect typing experience, better responsiveness and almost entirely free of mistakes. It's mind-boggling.

This!

Europe will probably be the largest market where US EVs will try to compete with Chinese cars. BYD is already selling better spec’d models for less than this Rivian, and Xiaomi will enter the market late 2026.

I don’t see how Rivian can compete, either on price or features.

Doing long highway drives is effortless. Think cruise control, but you can let go of the wheel.

The hardware necessary for level 2 autonomy is estimated to cost about US$400 in a Tesla. Much higher for companies using Lidar though prices are coming down as well.

Driving is already effortless. It’s not like you actively think about steering.

Those blue stripes look amazing in a retro-future kind of way. About time cars started getting back some personality.

I don’t think that the production model will look like that, I believe it’s a wrap. Also suspect it’s a bit of a joke on the model being called the R2 (the colors and patterns are reminiscent of R2-D2).

For some reason dutch advertising agencies went all-in on AI. There are tons of local commercials using the most terrible generated content and voiceovers.

Screentime helps, but it doesn't really solve the problem. They still see the exact same content shared by friends at school, and 15 minutes a day is enough to do damage.
