Alexandros Martakis, based in #Greece.

This space is mostly dedicated to my work and research on #coffee.

I have a profound and serious interest in a wide range of topics, including music, art, science, books, coding, math, and philosophy, viewing them as interconnected rather than separate entities.

In my free time, I enjoy writing about coffee, striving to create the best possible work available, on each topic I explore.

@asuph.bsky.social this is exactly what my first attempts where looking like. Cooler whole milk(it won't taste as good) is much easier to work with.

But its highly scalable and maintainable when using components and component-based libraries like React or Vue.

I get the idea of messy bloated html, and why people dislike it, don't get me wrong.

But while some developers argue that utility classes in HTML resemble inline styling, which violates separation of concerns.

My counterpoint is that tailwind offers the advantage of leveraging utility classes while still maintaining the benefits of reusable design tokens.

@catgirlQueer Hahaha!

I find tailwind amazing.

I style everything from html, and then I purge it and end up with a 10kb css for my whole project.

Super fast loading times, and fast development.

I find that with sage/bedrock tailwind, you get a scalable and super fast setup.

@timkmak This is a great piece.

Yesterday we published an article about #coffee culture in #Ukraine and how it’s still popular despite the war. You can read it through the link!

Ukraine’s resilience coffee culture

The number of coffee shops are dramatically increasing despite the war. After an explosion at her cafe, Maria shook the glass off, and went back to the espresso machine.

@MichaelTBacon There was a study from 2002, which I couldn't locate with my quick search (but I may find it later), suggesting that caffeine reaches your bloodstream faster the noment it is dissolved in your stomach with water.
@Fyrd Today as I was trying to make roots/sage work on windows, I ended up on it. Its 100% ai written. The article was was a mix new and outdated commands, that shouldn't be on the same article.

@keefeglise Absolutely! Sound and taste are so subjective, and that’s exactly what they rely on to sell us overpriced gear.

Add some amazing design and marketing on top, and it’s easy to get sucked in.

Personally, I think the best value for coffee is quality beans, and for audio, it’s in a good pair of headphones or to audio treat a space like a small room.

@keefeglise The audiophile market is flooded with overpriced equipment, and it is impossible to tell where genuine quality ends and exaggerated pricing begins.
Sure, there are notable differences between amps and speakers, especially in terms of build quality, sound staging, and overall clarity. But beyond a certain level, the improvements become so minor that they’re indistinguishable. Not to mention the ridiculous 5.000$ cables that are proven to not do shit all.

@espressolover That was a great article. I'm looking forward to reading more of your work.

It might be good to know that the oil estimator doesn't seem to work on my end.
