This looks like a decent MBA, however it feels a little bit too late. I got rid of my MBA 2013 in 2018, in hopes to get a proper replacement, but the unreliable keyboard and weak spec stopped me from getting one. Eventually, I got tired of

Aspect ratio and bad arrow design are my only gripes with laptops from System76. Actually, afaik there are almost no laptops which nail these and have a good/first party linux support.

Since most of my side projects don’t end up seeing light, so somebody could do it before me: A photo app that lets me view (and make galleries to share) of my photos uploaded to s3, that is self/locally hosted.

The desire to write games came later for me. What got me into programming was the desire to write viruses- they were this magical thing that I viewed as a game. A game to enter a system, to stay there hidden, spread and poke around, complet

One thing which prevents me from choosing these is the screen form factor - I find 16:9 to be really uncomfortable for doing any kind of development work. MacBooks traditionally have 16:10, which is notably better. 3:2, as seen on MS/H

Initially I was doing the same, but then switched to using Firefox profiles - 1 for work + google search; and 2 for personal with DDG and ublock origin. Also slowly migrating to Bitwarden.

## Diet/nutrition is my biggest focus, as I believe that what we eat is what we are made of ultimately. 1. Minimize all processed food. I always find that processed food has too many things which are not food. If I need something proce

I think Swift has the potential (and the chops) to become big. IBM (and a few others) is really pushing hard on adopting it as a server side language, their Ubuntu support is pretty good, but some Windows/Android support will be welcom

I think this is also relevant for VR - now you are touching air and you don't see you actual hands.

I think that there are more weak points where sports analogy breaks - sports is generally about preparing for competition and competition is not a daily event. If we continue with this analogy this would mean that the developers should be t

I do think sometimes about TDD as Think less driven development. The problem is not that much in TDD itself, but how its usually implemented - as a safety net and excuse for producing all kinds of bad code.

Yeah, I understand that's a bold "see, I'm electric" statement, but still feels a bit awkward.

I think it would far more beneficial if they open source Cocoa/CocoaTouch. I don't care how the IDE works as much as the stuff I use every single day.

One of the biggest things for me is that now I can draw upon the knowledge and knowhow of the people making Swift itself. Coming from Java, I'm used to reading the sources of all the things and now I can finally do it. So exciting, con

One of the main things I've noticed is that every person is different and therefore every team is different. Also teams evolve over time, so even when compromised by the same people you can look at them differently "each" day

I wonder if somebody have tried using a STM style approach to making games? For a couple of LudumDares I did try (in java) and for the games I was able to do it worked fairly well. Basically the drawing thread is seeing a frozen readonly ve

While performance is often cited as the main reason for having a native app, I think that one of the biggest reasons to prefer native apps is usability. More concretely I can see the following: - A web app/site is often an app within a

I think if the curve is too steep probably you are trying to learn too much at a time. Focusing on small and well defined problems will help you out at least initially. For instance I used Project Euler[1] to study some of the basics, becau

Among the negatives of standups are: - Rarely the right information. Every person in the team have different needs for information. It is even harder to deliver the right amount and on the right level if your team includes designers, qualit

Yeah Agile is used as a way to make money now days. For what other reason there are Agile consultants, Agile agencies and Agile certification. I firmly believe that Agile is about doing what makes sense in this team right now. You let the t

I'm really happy when I see bigger fonts promoted. I zoom in on most pages no matter if I'm on my big monitor on my phone.

I wonder how much pollution is generated to make the bike. This is a genuine question, I don't mean to quarrel. I'm certain that car is polluting far more then bike of course. There is certainly some from the paint and the tires (

There was a study some time ago stating that there is a reverse relation between the time one spends on commute and happiness. The more time you lose in the commute, less happy you are. Maybe this is something you can do for an year or two,
