Do folks have opinions on the best alarm/monitoring system? I’d originally bought a SimpliSafe system but they don’t work with secure or local WiFi networks so I’m returning it. Something comparable but with modern tech standards would be great.

Woke is so back

So we expect Trump simply took the extra time to classify any files he was in yeah?

I’m a warriors fan and this was still one of my favorite moments. An all-time great defender, trying to jaw and get in the head and space of the young star … young star just cooly taking care of business and letting him know he can do whatever he wants…

Someone should get that Steph guy a shoe contract!

Spurs not letting Steph breathe his own breath again this game

Phantom fouls all around this game

Still boggles my mind that outside of jsonapi there’s not a single serviceable spec of rest/rest-ish out there. People blame REST for a lot of problems that are really just lack-of-spec.

Are there any NYC frontend/js meetups? Going to be there for work in early December and wondering if maybe I could tack on a few (present and/or just attend)

If your dog hates timezone changes, you need a chiller dog.

Yup, this one has hit me a bunch of times and each time I end up wasting an hour just trying to understand WTF it is preventing only to realize it thinks I’m a moron. Well eslint can kiss my ass!

Most of the folks “on welfare” in my life have been republicans and all of them don’t think that’s what “welfare” is and that there’s some other thing called welfare that just pays people shit tons of cash. … and they don’t like it mostly cause they don’t get that cash too.

Honestly the fact check should have just been the title and the entire article

Semi?

Game 7 is Game 7ing

Typescript Eslint has a default rule that prevents no bugs and has nothing to do with types but amounts to “we think you shouldn’t create async APIs so we’re going ban use of async and make you write out a bunch of extra promise code”

If your "OSS" project uses Github issue templates and Github discussions I just presume you are closed contribution, stubbornly opinionated and don't fix bugs.

Among the more interesting developments is that MLB has decided the World Series brand is too weak and that small market trail races have a better brand property they should try to latch onto.

“Don’t use much/any JS” and “the web is the best open App Store” are incompatible pick-one opinions both of which are only believed by people who want to be able to tell you what a bad job you’ve done regardless of what you build and how you built it and how successful it is.

Can’t help but think Trump is withdrawing from Europe in order to help Putin and Netanyahu continue their wars

There should be a rule where if a game hits 18+ innings in the playoffs it counts as 2+ games for each multiple of 9 it reaches.

Ever notice how everyone is always winning their fantasy league?

This is brilliant

Two things I’ve noticed since United rolled out starlink. 1 - security tools block using United WiFi 2 - the WiFi is horrendously slow and unstable

“oh so you think the east wing being demolished is worse than-“ it’s a synecdoche, man. a visual metaphor. there’s a reason the aliens in Independence Day don’t aim a huge laser at SNAP benefits

Hot take - they aren’t failing.

Hot takes: - the spurs are going to have their third rookie of the year in three years - the rebuild is over early: spurs are the team to beat - the only team I think can beat the spurs is the warriors

Probably the greatest mystery of wine is how it tastes less like alcohol the higher the alcohol content.

Ah yes - github status page. They'll text you only after they've resolved an issue but they'll never tell you when one is currently happening. since ~10:30am github workflows are counting themselves as already-running tasks and self-cancelling 🙈

If you shuck your corn while still in the grocery store, we can’t be friends.

I’ve been an Apple user since the Apple II I’ve never owned anything but an Apple computer. I’ve never owed a smartphone other than an iPhone. I manage 9 lines. CarPlay, AppleTV, HomePod, Airbase (in the past), iPods - so many. iPads - a few. AppleWatch - just one. Stoked waiting for VisionPro 2

Won’t lie - a little feature envy in react on this round. Not in the “oh React is the rizz” sense - reactive frameworks could all implement this easier and do it nicer, they just haven’t bothered to care because the rough edges around this stuff are far more rare to encounter.

So iOS has both grown to 50gb and misreports app storage usage by 50gb and suddenly 128gb of storage is woefully short

Mark Sanchez clearly never recovered (from) the butt fumble.

Fwiw I’m probably part of the problem here cause I like to intersperse sports, tech and humor just so we aren’t so depressed from the state of the world all the effing time

Ember is the most vanilla

An East African at the conference I am attending made a really striking point: that he recognizes the problems U.S. democracy is having because they are typical of a recently democratized country — and after all, the U.S. only became a proper democracy in the mid-1960s.

The concept of the 10” pizza is honestly absurd. Just start at 12” please, thanks.

I love Strava. But I’m pretty sure myself and most other runners I know would jump ship if Garmin pulled the plug. I don’t love Garmin, but I trust Garmin. And I don’t trust Strava.

So vscode extensions marketplace seems to be having a widespread issue with tons of extensions being marked as no longer available. Their status page says "all is well" 😅

"Use the web" is too naive a take. The US has a history of taking down websites, its quite easy for them too. They do it at the hosting level, the DNS level, the IP level even all the time. You can host on a friendly service out of the country and rotate IPs and still be blocked quite easily.

Every time in my life I've needed to buy furniture I've come away believing I'd make a fortune if I went into the furniture business and just focused on moderately good quality pieces. It's wild to me that you can spend $8k on a bed made to last 5ish years and has 1300 reviews averaging 1.3 stars.

I’ve liked a lot of things about Liquid Glass. The new slack is not one of them.

TBH I'm surprised Promise.try made it into the spec before Promise.hash

The longer I'm in B2B SAAS the more I think externally-facing waterfall dev cycles are actually entirely correct (even if internally that looks more like continuous integration).

Apparently the fastest way to get Horse back on Bluesky and on a rampage is be a genocidal CEO.
