Maybe the appeal of TUI is that spacing is consistent, font size is all the same, so it looks nice almost by itself?

@nikitonsky also *I* get to pick the font face, weights and size, and, most of the time, the color palette. And TUIs are usually very focused on a single thing, performant and keyboard focused.

@nikitonsky the BSOD in Windows 10 is useless to everyone. There are bo good reasons to remove information there!

@nikitonsky this wouldn’t usually export when producing an image, etc. Did someone screenshot their work?

@brood No doubt about it. I recently discovered "Readeck", what a fantastic piece of gold to store articles :). (self-hosted opensource)

@daviddlevine I discovered some Blue Mountain coffee in the bottom of the freezer left over from our last visit to Jamaica - having discovered it I'm certainly drinking it now, not keeping it any longer!

Remembering those times as a kid when I'd see a non 7-segment-number component on a liquid crystal display, and I'd wonder if it was even legal.

@NanoRaptor For me it was VFDs. I could tell the VCR’s display wasn’t LCD or LED, but nobody seemed to know what it was and I had no idea what to search for.

@nikitonsky This is a pretty standard architecture for a secure, high-availability site on AWS. The biggest cost here is probably the VPC and its endpoints. Based on my experience I'm guessing it should cost roughly $150/month. Perfectly fine for all that it does. Most Wordpress users probably don't need this, but then again most Wordpress users probably don't need Wordpress. Use a static site generator into an S3 bucket for like $5/month, or just sign up for Wordpress.com.

@nikitonsky I know someone who was working with AWS, not quite sure the role, but not from what I could tell, launching their own sites/services, but supporting people with accomplishing that, and felt it was a bit of a hellscape.

Lol. They broke it again. It used to be non-RFC despite the docs a few years ago. Then they fixed it. And now theybroke it again. I can't even imagine *how* you can end up with this format

@nikitonsky sanpellegrino.com only has links to Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. The pointer icon could probably mean "we also have a website"?

I wrote another article! It’s about our failure, as a society, to solve one of the fundamental CS problems. I am sorry https://tonsky.me/blog/centering/

@nikitonsky I would add another recommendation: we need at least some degree of getting back into the situation where you can Pick The Damn Box And Drag It Around Until It Looks Good. That would be a recommendation for tool makers. Better baseline control in CSS would also be nice.

@nikitonsky They seem to be using a weird definition of quiet quitting. 🤔

I'd like to introduce the individual quoted in the article to a concept well-defined in this video by Mike Monteiro:

@nikitonsky WHAT THE FUCK!?
How fucking entitled do you have to feel to think you're deserving of *more* than completed assigned workloads made to high standards!?
HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE THESE PEOPLE!?
