Very interest, never had thought about the possibility to skip CI on trivial changes, which makes total sense! Clever.


We joked about when this day would come… I hope we (tech community) figure it out because Copilot really is a game-changer.


“ 9. Don't over engineer (YAGNI)” - Argh, this one could have saved me so much time in the past…


I love this new quote I heard a few days ago: "The slowest way to validade a feature is to build it" Let alone over engineer it...


Honestly, I wouldn’t think all these years later I’d be reading up how Wine works. I’m more surprised about how interesting I found it.


It's cool to see some of the "new" features of Vue 3's Reactivity API in action. The Vue docs are great, but interactively playing with how this behaves is a neat idea.


Thanks for the nice words! Glad you find the page useful.


This is a pretty cool idea. The doomsday prepper in me has been thinking about this in a while. But I actually thought about a simple Pi with a Wi-Fi access point serving local Wikipedia wirelessly to mobile devices.

Because, you know, when the doomsday comes everybody will have a charged up mobile phone on them…


You can't beat open-source. SaaS offerings usually try to generalize a service to serve the largest amount of people, when in fact what you want is solution to what your doing, not to what most people are doing.

When you're using open-source software it's very probable that you'll find people with the same problem you have, and in most of cases there will be a solution waiting for you already. Not to mention the cost savings too.


Come on people, we need this!!


I find it surreal you even need to file taxes.

I mean, companies already tell the government how much they pay you and how much tax they withheld. Unless you need to claim back taxes because of, say, medical expenses or charitable donations, there should be no need for us to even be concerned with such things.


And even for the deduction case, the standard deduction is now large enough that I'd be surprised if the percentage of those itemizing deductions vs. taking the standard deduction to be quite low double digits. In fact, I wouldn't be shocked if it were single digits.

IOW, send me my Norwegian-style postcard with the amount I owe, and quit catering to corner cases. (Oh, wait, Intuit's profits probably aren't a corner case, eh?)


Yeah, but that would unfairly punish the citizens who are better able to optimize our intentionally byzantine code of deductions and write offs!


Yup. Having to take the time to manually file the taxes is itself a tax.


A system where you have to guess how much tax you have to pay so the government who already knows how much tax you have to pay tells you if you paid the right amount of tax


And if you get the answer wrong, you potentially pay penalties (another tax)


Quite a bit of US economic activity is middleman busywork. Tax prep, private insurers, excessive financialization of various forms, etc.


That means USA has a worker surplus.


Surplus of useless roles but a shortage of workers for useful roles (healthcare workers, teachers, trades, rail and truck transportation, etc). Labor ain’t fungible.


Pretty interesting. I’ll have a look.


Oh, I’ve been there! Actually, I’m still here. I found this (very old) Stack Exchange thread with some suggestions. I actually tried Stay but it didn’t work for me.

Indeed, that link is one of the most popular results in any google search related to this problem. Thanks anyway. Actually, there's a recent comment on it with a new tool that I hadn't seen before. Let's give that a try.


There are some other solutions in this Reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/80hct8/app_request_m...
