I was merely pointing out that THC technically meets the definition of poison. I’m not sure that THC has been studied thoroughly enough to determine that given its illicit status. Even though it’s “legal” in several states it is federally

Jetpack Compose Multiplatform is in alpha status on iOS and Kotlin Multiplatform still has a a beta disclaimer on it, so I don’t feel like this is a good choice at this time. Something to keep an eye on for the future certainly.

The current status quo is on a path to being harmful to both. I love Nintendo but they compete more with Apple and Google than they do with Sony and Microsoft. If Microsoft exits game consoles next generation Sony won’t have any real compet

Not just the language itself but the whole ecosystem it brought with it was revolutionary. CPAN was incredible. There seemed like there was a module for just about anything! Perldoc and a testing framework were built right in. Regexes,

Unpopular opinion, but I think we'd be so much better off if Netscape had just embedded a Perl interpreter instead of creating JavaScript. Perl CGI was already the dominant server side technology at the time and it has incredible stri

Nearly every company does that. There’s nothing particularly nefarious about Apple here. This may surprise you, but Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Amazon, and nearly every other major tech company use similar tactics to try to get you to use

Of course nobody marries somebody expecting it to end in an unhappy divorce. The problem is that there are 2 single points of failure in a marriage, and you only control one of them. I can be the best husband I can possibly be, work hard,

I think a lot of men are starting to do the cost benefit analysis of marriage. If everything goes well you can buy a lovely house in the suburbs, raise 2.5 kids, grow old together with your wife and live happily ever after. If it goes wrong

To all of you saying this is a GPL violation, I highly doubt a company with the size and pedigree of Red Hat doesn’t have lawyers that thoroughly understand the GPL. I’m not a lawyer, but the way I read it, yes this is against the spirit b

Gaming laptops are particularly prone to this because of all the heat they generate. Desktops have much better mechanisms for dealing with heat.

Oh no, I realize what software I use is Java. Swing feels bad to use. On my workstation at least, JetBrains IDEs are slow, I haven’t used it in a long time, but Eclipse was slow, NetBeans was slow, there’s an enterprisey Java web start ap

Modern CSS and HTML's built in elements are better at a lot of the things people use JS for. I think as coders we feel most comfortable reaching for JavaScript first, when really we should be doing as much in HTML itself as possible, t

Can we please stop erasing history. Add context to it instead. It’s perfectly fine to acknowledge that we were deeply flawed individuals in the past. Erasing history makes it so much more difficult to learn from it.

All of those businesses you mentioned do largely compete with each other, in addition to other smaller players in their respective spaces. Could you give an example of them not competing? A government run bank seems particularly scary in th

Lack of arrests and prosecutions for theft of merchandise. Despite popular opinion, stores can’t just magically subsidize thieves through insurance or a tax write off and Walmart’s low margin business model doesn’t leave enough room to eat
