Yes, though we've had a few successful loads in the past few minutes. Started around 3:48 EDT, no requests until 3:57 EDT, when a few started trickling in. Edit: finally an incident: https://status.heroku.com/incidents&

I'm not knowledgeable about the efficacy of the masks themselves, but I suspect there's a forest-for-the-trees issue, here. There are at least a few ways to think about whether masks (broadly, or any specific mask) "work&quot

I wouldn't call it a best-practice, but I've done this. I guess my basic heuristic is that it's decent for an API that you expect to have very few consumers (internal, partnerships), but I would hesitate to recommend them for

They could certainly be easier to use. Sticky left/top rows might help. A modal might help. An interactive, filterable visualization for the timelines might help, too. The timeline could be greatly condensed if the exact change points

Just to play devil's advocate, you may not see the advantage, because you already know about all of those options. There's a fair amount of library discovery/evaluation overhead needed to get a fresh start in the React ecos

Where are you on the march from nothing to a usable app (even if that's a beta) in months, seasons, years, or any other form that makes sense? :)

I agree that it's important to be conscious of the rhetorical currents we create, and vigilant about what follows from carrying them to their logical conclusions. This is, for example, why we don't call people vermin or cockroache

Ah, that clarifies somewhat. The framing feels odd to me. If I'm rehearsing as if I were going to speak my thoughts, I'm concerned with trying to communicate. I'm trying different turns of phrase, levels of detail, and organi

Say to who, when, why? I wouldn't include thinking through upcoming conversations, texts, tweets, emails, posts, presentations, or phone calls. Let's say you need to run three errands and eat dinner on the way home. How do you dec

I don't think so (because this can be a short, impulsive decision), but it wouldn't surprise me if some experience it like this. My personal experience (in the non-audible group) is that the "role" this voice is playing

This topic (comments here, the OP, and comments in threads elsewhere) exposes some conflicting definitions of what an "internal monologue" is or means. - Some people describe hearing their internal monologue, which I take to mea

I suppose it won't save me, but <3 for working on this. I need work done, but I don't have dental insurance, will have to pay out of pocket, and have yet to overcome the analysis-paralysis problem of finding someone who'll

I don't keep up with SEO trends, but if you can spare a one-sentence summary or a link: I'm curious what fits under the umbrella of current SEO madness?

I'm just playing with it on desktop (including the breakpoints) and agree that the UI feels thoughtful. I noticed a handful of small things to pick on (and if I'm good I'll go file issues...), but I like the broad strokes--pa

You didn't expressly exclude it, but weighing it answers your question. The academy should structure itself in the way its members decide it should be structured.

Maybe it helps if I knock the particulars out of your case: Why should <organization> structure itself <in response to reasoned feedback from the humans who constitute it>? Do you have some clear argument for why members of an o

Apologies if I'm just projecting, but this seems nihilistic. Why does it matter if we know or don't know anything? Why does it matter if we know or don't know who wrote, lobbied, or voted for a bill? Authored a commit? Bought

Nix/OS definitely has some rough edges and discovery problems. I can't comment directly on home manager, and I have had to put a lot of work into adopting Nix, but FWIW I'm happily using it to manage my NixOS desktop at home

Compensation is an important role for unions, but it isn't the only thing a union can address. For example (with the caveat that I'm not certain about its actual legality and how effectively unions could push back on these contrac

Whenever I see this advice, or similar, I'm reminded of one of the "rules" I encountered in the style guide for an old MUD. Roughly: Don't write item/place/npc descriptions that tell the player ("you"

With the caveat that I may be projecting or reasoning from a biased sample, I had two thoughts: 1. I think the faults you're picking on in documentation are valid, important, and also probably more organizational/management faults

In the broad, reading books is worth it. Not every book. Not even most of them. (It's helpful to avoid the sunk-cost fallacy. You've already incurred whatever cost or risk came with obtaining the book--it's fine to give it th

It's not as robust as pushd/popd, and it may vary from shell to shell, but at least in bash you can also use "cd -" to change to the previous directory.

I doubt any of these will help you if you pick the name of a shell builtin, but: The closest (but not perfect) answer I know of is the open source project name checker ( http://ivantomic.com/projects/ospnc/ ). Repol

I wasn't going to say this quite the same way, but I think I was going to say roughly the same thing. The metrics are all an effort to abstract developer output into something a manager with no/minimal domain experience can unders
