Yes, it is worth my time. Ads are cancer. If you can't find some other less toxic way to support your business then it should die. FYI, I pay for plenty of other streaming services. I just don't feel YouTube is worth it. The conte

Sure, those are pretty interesting points but I feel like there is a bit of difference between the environment of a browser and that of a runtime like the JVM which tends to explain why certain debugging tools exist in one environment and n

Right...but how would this work tho? Since on a more open platform like the CLR, JVM Python interpreter or bare metal (as opposed to a controlled sandbox like the browser) there are many different network traffic libraries dealing with all

What in particular do you feel is so special about the JS debugging experience? I've done a lot of debugging on Python, Java and C++ over the years and never felt like I was missing tools (although I certainly met plenty of people that

I suspect you and the person you're responding to have different ideas of what the word blunt means in this context?

The assumption that everyone that came before was an idiot is really frustrating...and yet I find myself doing it too. Generally speaking to that person helps, although sometimes they do turn out to actually be an idiot.

I spent some time recently working on a C++ application for Windows using Qt for the UI and general application framework. I was surprised at how easy it is to achieve useful things with C++ and Qt in this day and age. When I used it back i

Wow, I didn't know anyone still uses Wing. The modern debugging tools available in other IDEs work fine with PyPy (and have for years), so I guess that must be a wing issue.

In my home country of South Africa the department of education decided the best way to deal with high failure rates among students with maths was to lower the bar by introducing a "maths literacy" course and allowing people to tak

This is a nice ask, also completely unlikely to ever happened.

I wanted to use NixOS but it just proved to be too much of a PITA to get going with :-/ Hopefully someone will find a way to take some lessons from it while leaving all the friction behind.

Mildly interesting then I got to then end and saw the "come back next week for my premium on article on WHY" and couldn't help feeling this was basically just a content mill article full of factoids trying to get you to give

I just run an HTPC/NAS hybrid device with Kodi. Can't be bothered to mess around with transcoding and no need for streaming to multiple locations in the house so I don't need a transcoding-based solution like this.

I think you've well and truly missed the point of that saying. All it really means is that when things go wrong, you shouldn't assume everyone involved is a giant arsehole trying to stick a spanner in the works.

I once used a crowdsourcing system called CrowdFlower for a pretty basic task, the results were pretty bad. Seems like with minimal oversight the human workers like to just say they did the requested task and make up an answer rather than a

Ground Control and it's sequel were great. Battlezone 2042 was also pretty good

Pretty sure Genshin Impact was in development as early as 2016, before Breath of the Wild was released, although after it was announced. Contrary to popular belief, Nintendo are not the only people that make open world games...

You hit the nail on the head. There are definitely these kinds of people and they are definitely highly concentrated in tech.

Actually it lives again in the form of Revanced. You do have to build an APK yourself by applying patches to an official YT APK but it's pretty easy to so with the CLI tool and works a treat. Also legally much safer than Vance's.
