I'm calling it, if you want GoreTex or similar clothing, get it now, in five years it will start to get banned, and in 10 years you won't find it anywhere.

I opened up raindrop.io and I see a video, and what appears to be a bootstrap.js site. I cannot express how much these things sway me away from the service. I will never use a site like this, if I can help it. Also, apparently there's

Nerve gas kills people . If the distinction between humans and non-human animals is not recognized, I am afraid all arguments will fall onto deaf ears.

This is true, on a global scale both options are bad. On the other hand, on a personal scale, the walled garden is much better option for me . It sucks that the Chinese are stuck between a rock and a hard place, but I am not, and I don&#x2

If people want to eat chickpeas or soy, they are free to do so. Similarly, if people want to eat cheap chicken, people who don't eat chicken shouldn't have any say into it.

What is the problem with killing billions of baby chicks? If killing billions of baby chicks means cheaper food for billions of people it's not only not a problem, it would be unethical to do otherwise.

I have been using Go since the day of the public release. Search has never been a problem for me. I have never used the term "golang" when searching anything Go-related online. People do it, but it's not required.

Well I'll tell you why I don't finish mine. It is because their UI and UX sucks. They ask for a PDF, but they always fail to parse it, and trying to correct the parsed data is an exercise in frustration. Also, they don't let

I write on Twitter to engage with my audience, who voluntarily joined Twitter and voluntarily chose to engage with me. If you choose not to be part of my audience than you have absolutely zero standing to tell me how to write and where.

Correction: they can host files. Most creators host their files somewhere else (e.g. youtube, dropbox, github, etc). You don't have to upload anything to Patreon.

The article makes the mistake assuming that companies are using these tests to maximize for performance, when in fact they are trying to maximize internal culture fit.

The File Provider API is very limited. In particular, it can't be used to implement file systems where the directory hierarchy is dynamic. It can't materialize directories on `chdir(1)`, for example. The design was obviously tailo
