Oh I know that story:

Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace

The EU is not a big enough market to justify a whole new, free iOS browser with a different engine that doesn’t work elsewhere. Which is why this EU policy was effectively useless.

As for comparisons to gasoline, I’d be leaving the tank empty so that’s not a concern for me.

You would carry around a whole combustion engine just to leave it empty?? Wtf that’s even more waistful and inefficient. Get an older EV with a small battery if you’re so allergic to it.

Battery fires are not catastrophic, it just takes a different approach to deal with it and we already know how.

How out of touch do you have to be to post such a photo now?

I’m very happy with Things. Been using it for 7 years with an occasional dip into Todoist and Apple Reminders just out of interest, but always coming back to Things.

It fits exactly how my brain works. The only annoyance is that I cannot tick off recurring tasks before they are scheduled.

I’m using my custom domain email with a hosting service (mailbox.org). Hosting on my own was a pain in the ass and you also have to deal with spam filters not trusting you.

It is unfortunately legal: https://www.datenschutzkonferenz-online.de/media/pm/DSK_Beschluss_Bewertung_von_Pur-Abo-Modellen_auf_Websites.pdf

What does „replace plunger“ mean here?

The way I know it:

• Coffee in
• Water in
• Plunger in, just enough so all the coffee is submerged
• Wait 4 minutes
• Press down slowly
• Done

Sure, get the big ones out as an example…

I know this feature and use it when I’m watching on the phone. But so far it’s not available on the Apple TV app.

pays creators

Not enough. Otherwise creators would not need to include their own ads which Premium users can’t hide.

Yep, most smart home stuff I would not recommend buying for the regular prices.

Though there is always a person standing next to the self-checkouts helping people if something is not working or they need to approve alcohol. They always seem pretty bored just standing around.

It does make sense when you mix. You get the benefit of instant rendering and dynamic content all in one. And web dev becomes even more complicated…

There is no latency on static pages. They are rendered once as regular HTML and then saved on the server to be immediately ready for the user. The server is only processing that initial data fetching and rendering once per site. If needed, it can be retriggered. This is great for blogs and other regular pages.

Server pages on the other hand will do the initial fetch request every time but once the site is there, no data is missing and everything is there. It’s not for everyone. Regular dynamic pages still make sense. For every method there are use cases.

Disclaimer: I’m speaking from my experience with Next.js which did the same thing long before and React now aims to make that easier. But I’m not sure if React has the distinction between static and server. It’s all new and I haven’t had a project to test it on yet.

It’s called Server Components. If you actually build a fully static website, there is no DOM modification going on. I would actually not recommend doing that with React because it kinda defeats the purpose. The goal of it is to have a mix of both. The initial render is super fast because it is prerendered once for everyone. Then dynamic data is being fetched if needed and elements are replaced. It also improves SEO.

React 19 is not yet officially released but you can read more about it here https://react.dev/blog/2024/04/25/react-19

I’m a React dev. You can create server side websites, written in JS, that don’t require JS to be turned on in the browser. Granted, this just became a new official feature in React but has already been available with React frameworks like NextJS

I envy you
