I've always found it odd that and/or in Ruby isn't just considered equal to &&/||, and I have never really used the english operators except for the usual modifiers like if and unless. What is a practical use cas

> Gabe Newell worked at Microsoft for 15 years - people need to start considering Valve an extension of Microsoft. Their unofficial App Store for games. This is a really weird take, considering Valve's push into Linux.

Technically they already did a built in ad with Android KitKat. Mostly benign, but I do remember being at an Android event and KitKats samples being given out to everyone. As well as KitKat wrappers being branded with the Android logo for a

I've always found juniors to be the most prone to being "clever". Writing complex things for the sake of it. And it's one of the things I think you need to get over if you want to be considered medior/senior. A seni

It's not about if the entire community is weird. But that a few vocal people doing something becomes the first impression of the ecosystem. Which is turning people off from exploring further, as you can see in this thread. You can make

Companies should move away from it. But it's still pretty common. Looking at my own country. There are multiple big companies with a "founder-mode" CEO that is a massive prick and wants to be a dictator. I feel like having th

It's not the fault of the language itself. But the behaviour gives people bad vibes, and they don't want to associate with the community anymore. Keep in mind. Learning a language usually also means you interact with the people in

Not literally. And I would hardly say it was a matter of language superiority. I love Ruby myself. But Github was a lot simpler when it was still just a Rails app. But Rails was SSR by default, and most of the frontend was just Embedded Rub

For modern movies, where you likely need to adjust some things in the scene using CGI, it is much easier to just add VFX to a pristine 4k image and then deep fry it with something like this. As for your second point. A friend of mine's

Depends. With all the web agencies I've made, the only code that belonged to customers was the actual website part. Any of the "jigs" that we made for our workflow was not part of that. And contractually, any code I made was

You can do specific apps on Apple too, though. You can select the entire category, or expand it and select individual apps.

One of the most infuriating things about recommendations engines is the way they handle non-English music. Maybe it's not with every language, but as soon as I listen to a Dutch song; the engines will recommend me ALL Dutch music, rega

This. If this was a 65k sedan, I would understand. With a normal infotainment system, that is. Not this "looks like a race car" stuff. If I had to spend 650k on a single car, I wouldn't buy this.

Agreed, I like the design. It just feels horribly misplaced as a Ferrari. It looks like a daily driver car, but the entire instrumentation looks (to my layman's eyes) to larp as race car. If the dashboard was set up for a normal person

Here's one thing Apple did well on. Their screentime settings also work in the browser. It could be better, but at least it's something if you set up your kids device properly.

Like how browsers made a do-not-track feature that got ignored by websites because there was no consequence?

I've seen the sentiment come up a lot, and I've talked about it with a buddy a lot. For all the issues people claim to have with iOS or Android, they really "just work" compared to the shit we had to deal with back in th

I remember a conspiracy nut telling me "the truth", saying not to believe what the media told me, and do my own research. And then proceeded to point me to a few conspiracy influencers that were telling him what to think. It was

To be fair, some people will always default back to "the Jews" any opportunity they get. That's not specific to this movie.
