Maturely tagged with `#STOPUSINGPRERELEASESWITHSUDO` When their Official Blog makes no mention of 5.7.0 being a prelease [0] and is semantically versioned as a stable release. The thread also later details that running `npm upgrade -g npm`

It's poorly disguised marketing for Kylie Jenner. Look at the "influence" she holds, wiping out $1.3B from Snapchat value! Wouldn't you want her to support your {thing}? Imagine how much value it would bring your product

As a programmer if I don't want the user to use it I don't expose it to the user at all. If I want the user to be able to use it I'm not going to intentionally make it difficult to do so. That's not good design - that&

My bad, I misread and thought you had referenced my first example (button/no background) but you had referenced the button/button example. The button/button was for a search. They wanted to draw attention to the 2nd button th

It was a primary button on the hero image in the standard "Header/Subheader/Call to Action" format. It was basically the only thing they wanted users to interact with. >Of course it did, it looked more like a button!

This ended up being quite wordy and I'm still not sure I explained my issue properly. I might need to do a visual mockup of my problem which boils down to "mental disconnect between the source of the data and where you view the da

Where I work we have beer on tap. People are free to drink whenever and the occasional person will grab a beer with their lunch but peer pressure and not wanting to be drunk while at work means most people won't drink during work hours

Yes, this was meant to be a response to cpburns2009, woops. Was in a rush and originally posted it as a parent level comment, deleted, then reposted under what I thought was the right thread. Looks like I still need more coffee.

People are always so quick to jump to this line of reasoning when popular opinion agrees with them. Would you be fine with losing your job for wrongthink if - or rather, when - social opinion swings the other way? It doesn't matter if

League of Legends offers a colorblind mode in game that does exactly that - changes the teams to Blue and Red from Blue and Purple. IIRC, they even use that mode for their E-sports tournament streams - but I might be wrong on that as I have

A very large portion of the WCD community, especially the more active members of the forums, have largely moved to [Redacted] or [God of Music]. In case you never found out and would like to possibly re-unite with some old friends from WCD.
