Funny that you used the word "team" when the outcome is anything but teamwork.

I had this on Magento 2.3.3 for a "custom stock" module that was running loops to grab data for a product and its child configurable products. As Magento is written in a modular way, asking a subcomponent for data can involve a da

But the Tesla is still extremely expensive compared to most "little" cars in my UK neighbourhood (VW Up!, Toyota Yaris etc.) I see many secondhand cars here and can't understand how the 100,000 mile warranty on batteries (eg

I wonder what will happen with the introduction of the VW ID3. The Up! is now electric-only too. Here in the UK (Midlands) I see a few Teslas, very few Leafs, even fewer Zoes and the odd i3 (which you can spot from the rubberband-width whee

Indeed it is simpler but it changes the meaning of a sentence quite significantly. Correct syntax is important - should I be able to write my C++ without semicolons too? Next you'll be arguing that we should use "brought" and

I used to run Windows 3.11 on 4MB RAM (it struggled to run Word 6.0 without insane paging, I was poor) and Windows 95 on 64MB of RAM (4 x 16MB on a 486 DX2 66). How is this memory usage by Dropbox reasonable? It seems to be another example

Certainly. You said you would have made the change earlier but now consider yourself to be "old" (and therefore your skills are out of date). At what age would you have not considered yourself "old" and likely a more sui

Yes I sorely miss this in xcode. If it's in there and I am unaware of it, please sombody let me know! I am writing C++ in both IDEs and VS is far more useful to me.

That's a shame, what would you have done instead? Also, at what age cut-off would you consider it being easier than being labelled "old" ?

But does that make Birmingham "the North"? I don't think so; although it is certainly north of London, it isn't the north and the attitudes in Brum are a bit different to Londonium. Perhaps it's the London / ou

I know they have tried signs to help drivers but having driven there, sometimes you have about 6 signs on one post and 6 on another pointing the opposite direction, and at 40mph (which nobody around you does - they're all in a rush or

My friend who is from Woking said that southerners typically viewed everything as an eternal crisis and were always in a rush. He said it was far different moving to the Midlands, and I think it gets less panicky the further north you go. P

No offence, and I can see that you've been downvoted but how do you actually propose solving this "unnavigable" problem? By bulldozing existing property that is owned by multitudes of private landowners and building new roads

True. It was obviously a bit more awkward to use, that was all. Having said that, it was less frustrating that on Linux for me but that was back in the days of PulseAudio being garbage and Jack dropping samples left, right and centre on my

I suppose it comes down to who defines "the best" or what good and bad is. Your definition most likely won't be the same as mine. Times that by 6 billion (and different cultural attitudes in different lands) and it's obv

Alternative for communication? Or something else? I'd say email + SMS solves 99.9% of problems and also limits the garbage received because people can't be bothered to start/write an email and don't want to spend money o
