I still use Craigslist when I need to sell something. It’s not often, but I can’t bring myself to use FB marketplace. I don’t sell stuff often, but did sell a set of tires on CL a couple years ago.
I used to have a floppy and a mini-cd boot version of these. The mini-cd looks like a credit card and fit into a standard size cd drive. Reading the history of the project is a bit of a bummer, but still love the project ethos.
Correct and performant way to calculate historical value of a portfolio. I want a pure function, but taking a date as input is insufficient because users can edit holdings, and securities can split.
Weighing the tradeoffs of doing this calculation server or client side. That'll be an architecture shift away from my current set of background jobs fetching state and towards something more functional and on-demand.
I like reading to my kids and try to read to them in English and Mandarin. My Chinese is conversational, but I have a hard time finding books for them because I’m not good at writing. Something like this with language learning tools would be awesome.
I also like making up stories when we go on hikes. Long, rambling stories about unicorns befriending spiders and flying to faraway lands.
Like the layout tiles you have for the photo thumbnails. Will dig through and learn some css. Have struggled with different size content to create a compact masonry layout.
The CSS for this is indeed tricky. I figured out this layout 5 years ago in the v1 and forgot how it works, just took it over as it looks good. The key is that not all rows are exactly the same height. There are small differences that allow photos to fit horizontally.
I also tried the vertical masonry layout, which looks good, but makes no sense if your photos have a chronological order...
Living in hongkong for a few months, and absolutely love exploring the different neighborhoods. I’d love something like this or walkscore but for local guides to contribute.
My last use case for it was selling a car and giving away some free stuff. Sadly, those have been replaced by fb marketplace.
