Um, no. Keynesian economics is still predominately what is taught as "economics", and is a huge influence on how governments make economic decisions. It's a bit like Freud - people only remember him for his kookier ideas, but

I'm not an American. I'm also quite a fan of Marx (or, at least his analysis of the inherent flaws on capitalism). But Keynesian economics essentially runs the world. Marxism... does not.

Keynes is probably the most influential economist of all time. I disagree with some of his ideas (for likely different reasons than you do), but I can't see any basis for him "admitting defeat" - he's many things, but de

I solved this by forcing myself to read my list in chronological order. After a small period it became very obvious that most stuff I'd put in my list truly did not matter.

In general this is good advice, but needs a heuristic of when to apply it. It's a bit like albums: some are hard to get into but worth the effort in the end. So while there are plenty of books I won't finish, I tend to stick with

Angular allows you to split your code into modules and then load them on-demand. For example, we have a module for the admin pages, which is only loaded when routing to one of them, which means that module is never loaded for non-admin user

Same. Bitwarden (with self-hosted vaultwarden) so far seems to be a great solution. I had ben using `pass` for many years, but the lack of sharing functionality is what finally got me looking at other options.

Maybe it's not so popular for startups, but Angular is kinda like .NET - maybe not the new hot thing, but very well bedded down in large orgs and govt.

We have a similar sounding app in terms of scale. We just bit the bullet and a couple of us spent a few weeks doing the upgrade in one branch while the rest of the team worked in another. We'd periodically merge in to the upgrade branc

We moved from ASP.NET MVC on Framework 4.8 to .net core without it being too painful. Mostly we needed to re-work the authentication pipeline stuff, but the netcore way ends up being much nicer anyway

I use vim plugins for whichever IDE (VS, vscode, Rider) I'm using - not as good as full-featured as pure vim, but what I needs it's more than good enough.

Yeah, same. The Fuji X100 made me pack away for my DSLR for everything except sport and concerts. The GR IIIx has made me pack away my X100.

You can have multiple appsettings files and are additive. Eg, you can have appsettings.production.json which only contains an override for the connection string in the base appsettings.json.

I find something like the Ricoh GR III a great compromise - APS-C sensor, brilliantly sharp lens, tons of control, in the body of a small P&S.

I'm not so sure about the patriarchy part, but it's certainly wrapped up in the move towards narrowly scientific thinking. Or as Nietzsche would put it, we're too Apollonian and not enough Dionysian. FWIW I'm also fond o

It's a bit of both for me. I'd say 90% of it is from simply having types; 10% is from some of the cool things you can do with TS types that aren't common in most statically typed languages.

Yeah, that's particularly the case if you're contracting: they'll advertise the hourly pre-super rate more often than not.

I think "lol" needs to be expanded a bit to be convincing. I can't see how it is not the same thing. The employer looks at the total cost of employment and works out if it's worth hiring someone. If that cost is 10% high

In Australia, it is a mix. Most people should have a self-funded retirement as a result of mandatory superannuation during their working life. Those who haven't accrued enough can fall back on the aged pension, but this should become l

Locking in 2.6% for 30 years, from an outsider (Aus) perspective, seems insane. That must inflate prices like no one's business. Here, the longest easily available fixed term is 5 years, and you usually pay a decent rate premium (maybe

That's certainly part of it, but also I think that, in the face of infinite gender/relationship/careers possibilities, they're (rather sensibly) leaning on tradition for guidance.
