In london black cabs are cheaper, safer (better regulations, less fake IDs), happier people in general (they chose cabbing as a long term goal rather than being forced into ubering on the weekend to keep up with rising cost of living), and

Wow people actually think like this? Have you ever been poor? Genuinely wondering. 10% hurts the same no matter your income. Fines are about punishment and deterrence. You cant deter a millionaire with a 100$ fine like you can a pensioner o

Generally people just get larger phones instead of typing one fingered. The awkwardness of phone coding isnt the typing of text (wherein most people rely on decent prediction rather than precise typing), it's the use of symbols.

I feel like something is wrong where you are, maybe your juniors do not feel incentivized or encouraged to learn, code reviews might not be strict enough, quality may not be valued enough, and immense pressure to move tickets might be put o

Any dev choosing iOS in my view has a twisted moral compass as they're perfectly happy to support the social divide apple purposely created and perpetuates to this day with its refusal to move to RCS.

Same in the UK, 2 years is the legal minimum for all electronic goods and no contract can be written to override that. If it uses electricity in any way, it must last 2 years. It helps prevent ewaste.

People forget how hostile and small the old Internet felt at times. Developers of the past weren't afraid to tell a noob (remember that term?) to go read a few books before joining the adults at the table. Nowadays it seems like devs h

My mother, now in her 70s, has about 4tb worth of photos and videos, and we haven't even started digitizing stuff. My friend, in her mid 20s, uses nearly 3tb of apple cloud space with photos and videos, mostly of her kids and dog. I do
