This is nonsense. Work isn’t done if it isn’t polished. Polish and attention to detail is what separates the Nintendos and Apples of the world from the also-rans.

This is useless to me. It tells me to start out doing sets of 2 push-ups. I am not exaggerating when I say I can do ZERO push-ups. NONE. I can sit there all day and keep trying, and I will not be able to do any. A program that helps me get

Not a typo. In the ‘90s JavaScript was only for devils who tried to make annoying pop-up ads and such.

I don't need or want to own any car. Cars are destroying our society. Electric cars are not that much better than fossil fuel cars. Even if I was going to buy a car, I wouldn't buy a Tesla. Everything I've seen suggests they

At first, only devils used JavaScript. Then jQuery/AJAX/Web2.0 made it permissible for it to be used for good. Then Apple killed Flash. Clients and employers still demanded fancy web sites that weren't just hypertext and imag

At my previous job the company heavily relied on an industry standard application. This app basically had a monopoly on that particular industry. However, they were pushing the app beyond the limits of most other companies. It was also just

Care less. You won’t stress about your job if you don’t care about it. Your job is just a thing you have to do because of capitalism. Nothing to stress about if you succeed or fail. You do what you are required to do to get paid, and no mor

If it's not a consumable item, and it's not completely worn out beyond the point of no return, it can almost definitely be repaired. Exceptions are rare.

This is what works for me. I am not a doctor, dietician, etc. Not expert advice, etc. Under normal circumstances I eat when I’m hungry, and I don’t eat when I’m not hungry. I realize this doesn’t work for many people as the mechanism that t

Most commenters seem to recognize that index funds are the way to go, and they’re correct. There are some who are pointing out that the future is much more uncertain now and that index funds might not be as good a bet as they used to be. He

I really don't see Clear, TSA precheck, etc. as any different from a computer security company that also is responsible for releasing viruses and exploits into the world. The long lines at airports don't need to exist. It's s

Of all the software I can think of quickly, the one I think may have saved the most time in my life is Google Maps.

I deploy to actual VPCs, the old way. No containers. No PaaS. Just get a Linux machine with a static IP and install. I use ansible to automate the deployment. If I need some storage of undefined quantity, in the case of say image uploads, I

I've always bought smaller everything. I really miss my Fujitsu Lifebook P7230. I wish I could get an iPhone that was the size of an iPod nano.

If you think a scrolling document would make for a better visual aid for a presentation, please don’t give any presentations. Just e-mail your document to everyone and don’t waste their time.

Can we please ban these sorts of posts? This isn't news. People's news feeds are not the place for individual tech support problems. Take it to the Google community forum.

Talk about fair distribution all you want, it doesn't matter. People who buy tickets are not the customers of Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster does not have any incentive to implement any system that better serves the people who actually att

I started using it around 2008 on the recommendation of a co-worker. I already had a lot of experience with RCS, CVS, and SVN. I understood the problems and frustrations caused by those tools, because I suffered with them for years. After r

Because it's not Ticketmaster you have to overturn, it's the venues. They have exclusive deals locked in for several years. Can you convince a small venue to use your new system? Maybe? But since the big venues use Ticketmaster, i

I have an extremely high moral standard for choosing employment. There is a long list of industries I won't work in, projects I won't work on, and people I won't work with. The bar is very very high, and Elon is pretty close

Knowing what other people with the same title at current, and similar, employers will definitely improve people’s ability to negotiate. But that’s not the real information employees need. What is really secret is the true value of the labor

I was also thinking they should only dismiss by ID instead of type. The other question is, why would background tasks be permitted to call dismiss at all? I can imagine a scenario where you get a malware app installed using whatever method.

Not really the worst strategy. You can totally see where he was coming from. He just vastly overestimated how far VR could go in even 10 years of heavy investment, if ever. No amount of heavy investment, even for 10+ years, is going to make
