I find VS2022 to be anything but slow now that it’s 64bit. Having said that, without ReSharper I find VS to be a terrible experience (I’ve been using R# for 15 years.) Rider is also a viable alternative.

That’s even easier. Contact Apple and ask for a refund.

I can’t echo this enough. At work our DevOps folks started out of the gate with a Postgres cluster (hosted in our K8s infrastructure) and it’s been a nightmare. Luckily we’re still in development mode and haven’t moved any customers to our

Chargebacks are a thing, and they do punish bad actors.

If a person can do the job that's expected of them I don't find it unethical (assuming they're not working for competitors, utilizing resources of one employer for the other, etc.) They're not hourly employees and doub

I have a friend that does this, has 3 jobs...makes nearly 500k. IMHO, it's not worth the stress though.

> Go is very often that simple tool which works for most simple things. If only folks applied that kind of thinking to things like architecture and devops.

I completely agree. Microservices & Kubernetes are poster children for: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_aren%27t_gonna_need_it

Kubernetes is a cancer for 99% of companies. Most companies need little more than docker compose/swarm. Kubernetes is the antithesis to KISS. If you’re Google, then you need something like K8s. Most orgs using it are pretenders or tren

I love my Kinesis Advantage. I go back and forth between it and my other non-ergo keyboards (at the moment it's a DasKeyboard). Somehow I managed to lose the CTRL keycap while the Kinesis was storage in my attic. I emailed Kinesis an

We pulled my son (type 1 diabetic) out of public school and into homeschooling a month prior to the public schools going all virtual due to the pandemic last year. He's finally vaccinated, but we're in no hurry to send him back (h

I suppose in my case he might have been less effective at assessing my technical abilities (there were multiple technical interviewers throughout the day.)

This is how I got a job with a bunch of really smart folks in the early 2000s (they were all MIT grads and I was a graduate of a state liberal arts college in NY.) It was several rounds of interviews and a couple of the folks interviewing m

Seems like a threat of a lawsuit would have been in order to force Apple to return all the money he's ever spend with Apple + interest.

> I love how HN hates k8s for no valid reason. There's lots of valid reasons to not use K8s. I don't hate it. What I strongly disagree with is its use-by-default (not unlike how software is now Microservices-by-default.) K8s o

I wish it would go away completely. Most orgs could get away with docker-compose.

Let this be a reminder to the folks that love to hate on Microsoft (.NET Foundation screw-up from a few weeks ago.) Open source projects are no more immune to asshole behavior than anything else. This shouldn’t stop you from choosing Rust o

I hope all the folks that came out of the woodwork to shit on the .NET Foundation a few weeks ago don’t give the Rust team a pass here.

The right way to approach this is to move to a single-payer healthcare system. The administrative overhead of all of these insurance companies is STAGGERING. I consulted for a franchisee of Blue Cross Blue Shield 15 years ago. They were a

The sad truth is people only realize how fucked the US healthcare system is when they or their loved ones get sick. I was the same way until my son got sick (type 1 diabetes.) From then on (~2013) we've spent $20,000+/year to cov

I've primarily been a .NET Developer (a few stints using Java/Python) since I finished college when the original .NET first RTM'd (2001). I think today's Microsoft and the Microsoft of 20 years ago are very different. M

I think "ASP.NET" would imply the legacy web framework, so they had to keep the "ASP.NET Core" name. Not unlike EntityFramework & Entity Framework Core.

I grew up in Western New York (granted, decades after this happened) but never heard about it until it popped up on here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ccu1oooOmdU
