We’ll explore the complexities of traditional stack (db-server-frontend), develop a theory of software evolution: which systems succeed and why. Then we’ll see how local-first fits into it and which local-first-adjacent practices are making software development easier and...

I got tired of Lorem Ipsum text and created Quantum Lorem Ipsum, now with 100% more physics jargon! To those who are not familiar, Lorem Ipsum is a piece of latin text, comprised of multiple paragraphs, that is used as a placeholder during the design process of building a page

Go beyond eslint limits with these 3 tricks

from Vladimir Klepov as a Coder [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago

Avoiding timestamp errors when calculating dates in php

from A Beautiful Site [alt+shift+b] in programming

over a year ago
When calculating dates in PHP, it is easy to add millisecond values such as 60 * 60 * 24 to increment the time by one day. This can become problematic for two main reasons. Issues with leap years # A year has approximately 365.25 days, hence a leap year occurs once every four...

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
