I really don't want to be vegan. Because actually I have no problem with killing animals for food - it's just the way of the world. I don't even really mind torturing animals for food - as long as they're low cognition (fish, insects, etc) However - I really don't want to participate in the active (often life long) torture of high cognition animals like pigs. Chickens are pretty dumb, but I'm not down with stuffing them into small cages their whole lives to peck at each other. Not ok with dairy cow-calf separation. And the more you look into it, the more you realize that humane sources of meat, dairy, and eggs are VERY hard to come by. Buying the more expensive brand at the grocery store does not imply torture free. If you're eating bacon, an egg, cheese from a random restaurant - you are participating and enabling animal torture. These labels "vegan", "vegetarian", "pescatarian" don't work for me. A vegetarian who eats dairy and eggs still participates in torture. I would lustfully eat a steak that had a good life, or an egg from a non-factory farm. For all the daily political bullshit that happens - the torture of billions of animals is so rarely discussed.

Why is @t3dotchat recently defaulting to a blank screen when I open the tab after a few hours? Horrible user experience. Am I the only one?

pnpm is an incredible piece of technology. After migrating the StrykerJS mono repo, we see improved install times of up to 8 minutes. Simply incredible! @pnpmjs you're wonderful! 🦄

.@theo could you make downloadthing? An API based wetranfer-like solution? I would pay money for it. It could probably leverage the infrastructure of uploadthing

.@vercel_support you guys are awesome, but the azure-devops side needs some love now and again. Your deployment task is still on node 16 🤯 See github.com/vercel/vercel-azu…

I've just added a slide to our React course material. Kudos to the Cloudflare team for being transparent on this matter 👏.

Huge thanks to all the open source projects that've made a lot of the tech we rely on in the world possible: Linux Git FFmpeg PyTorch & TensorFlow Apache & Nginx MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite Chromium & Firefox GCC & LLVM Docker & Kubernetes Also, all the open-weight LLMs... and all the programming language interpreters, compilers, and frameworks. I can list 100 more "niche" open source projects I've used & loved (e.g., OpenCV ❤️). But I just wanted to give a continued big thank you to the open source community for everything you do for humanity 🙏

This is so true! I'm so happy we maintain our course material and keep everything up to date @InfoSupportBV

In the latest episode of Codedocent, I explain why JS code may break unexpectedly when using the 'this 'keyword. It depends on how you call the function and how you declare it. Curious? Why not take a look? youtu.be/mxpPBqWX7HI (watch out! It is in Dutch 🇳🇱🧀)
