He's pretty funny, but suffers from having to pump out more content for tiktok IMO. Krazam rarely uploads but it's always a banger

This is pretty cool. Care to share your Swift port?

Also PHP has Laravel Spark[0]. They basically bootstrapped a SaaS but for a price. Not sure if it's worth it, but it's from the guys who made Laravel, and everyone only has good things to say about that so...

I think it's a lot less obvious here than on Reddit you could hover over a username and see it.

Also there's two versions of the Samantha voice. One is 11 mb (downloaded by default) and another is 152mb (have to download from settings). The improvement with the 150mb version is very noticeable

Did you try downloading the bigger Siri voices? I'm using English (US) Voices -> Siri -> Voice 5 (90mb)

I don't know where I found it, but I saw a job ad for a dev role that asked for an MBTI test first (it's about personality types thing like INFJ INFP etc).

Asking for this in a job for coding was... something else. And I thought leetcode was all I had to study

This topic has always interested me. For people looking for a free alternative (free for Apple users), I recommend looking into iOS and MacOS spoken content under Accessibility [0]

It's a bit finicky at times but the pros are

1. Free

2. It works on anything on your iPhone, iPad or Mac screen

3. Apple's Siri voices are actually really good! (Better than Speechify voices)

Started looking late November and started tracking my applications in January.

I have applied to a total of 46 positions within a month. This has led to six interviews, several of which I received no response, 13 formal rejections, and one job offer which I declined (The decline was due to the position being advertised as a developer role, yet the recruiter mentioned that about 50% of the duties would involve support tasks)

Seeing this thread gives me some relief. At least it's not just me but a broader trend across the whole industry

I’m assuming it’s this https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe... (no pun intended)

Heh, not sure if pun intended but this made me giggle

This may go against the whole ethos of using neovim, but I would suggest giving LazyVim[0] a try.

- Dead simple to install

- Sane defaults

- IDE like out of the box

- Still feels like VIM

- Configurable

- Actions are discoverable (press space and a menu pops up with all the possible shortcuts)

- Good enough docs

Before I moved to LazyVim I always used VSC with the vim plugin installed before I took the full plunge and went all in on LazyVim (I don't care for vim itself but I like the motions).

It was also the sweet spot for me, I don't like configuring my tools for work but I like using well designed tools and discovering things along the way

Reddit itself is monetized, but the people writing the review or suggesting products most likely weren't paid to recommend stuff. Not that there aren't paid shills on reddit, but as long as your BS meter is decent, a quick peek at the poster's profile can confirm whether the suggestions are legit.

It's a bit of work to weed out real testimonies but if you can collect a bunch of reviews and use your own judgement as a final filter. I think that's better than just clicking any of the "Top 10 <product>" sites that google shows on the first page.

The standard templating in Go has been good enough for my small projects, and I usually avoid adding libraries if I can help it. But seeing this makes me want to try it just to see how it compares.

More like PHP and Pug, but in Go. As someone who likes server-rendered websites but prefers Go over PHP, I like this approach.

Flexbox froggy got me into learning flexbox and now I find out there's a grid counterpart?!
