I generally agree with this, but making sure your error messages are correct is even more important than terseness. The last example of the article is a perfect illustration of this: $ cat invalid cat: invalid: invalid path An in

This eventually becomes a microservices vs monolith discussion though. Implementing both the message queue and the bank core integration service within 1 service makes for less communication/network overhead and is easier to debug, whi

I still think it's wrong to dismiss people's experiences out of hand and lump it all onto the racism pile. So it's likely not the MSG, but maybe the chinese restaurants these people go to have a reputation for not being the f

Most estimates I see for income per 1000 views (cpm) are around 1$. She almost makes 10x as much. Is she an anomaly or are the estimates totally wrong? I guess her videos might be longer than normal?

Macbooks and Apple keyboards in general lack a physical del key (in ibm keyboard terms). They only have a backspace, which they label delete. Fn+backspace works as a shortcut, but they’re on completely different ends of the keyboard so you

Yes I understand that and I guess I’m a bit salty. But part of my point is that you can make really great hardware and software of great quality, but one or two unfortunate choices can soil the whole thing for someone. And Apple especially

If we’re talking about hardware ergonomics the lack of a del key and placement of the fn key alone make me never buy a macbook again. I also hate the difference in cmd, alt and ctrl keys from other keyboards.

I think technically it would be pretty easy for google to embed ads into videos in a way that would be hard to impossible to block.

Then the question becomes if Sillicon Valley will now also try to hire remotely from a larger talent pool all across the U.S. (or even world).

There's an extensive list of everything wrong with the book but not a single point on how to do it better. If you show the wrong way to do things, it's always good to give a few pointers to a better path so part of your reader b

This is a big part of why I still use MacOS. The mail, notes and reminder apps are simple, easy, fast and can be used with third party providers like Fastmail. The Windows apps are fairly sluggish by comparison. I prefer most native MacOS a
