PayPal still sucks. And projects, especially pre-orders, should communicate their current status and challenges. It’s amazing how communicative this project is about PayPal holding their funds up though. Hmm?

Except the Raspberry Pi Compute Modules for this are now 4-5x their original price. I have a new Turing Pi in box that I refuse to drop $500 on the CM3 boards for. I’d rather just buy a surplus lot of desktop computers to build a toy cluste

This is true, and part of a larger problem where product managers and BAs come in and try to REUSE components conceived in a hackathon. I hope I never have to see that again.

Yes and one of the Win10 updates clobbered GRUB somehow. Windows is just a bad neighbor.

The insurers should require policyholders to go through training or an audit process before writing said coverage. God forbid an insurance company and policyholder share the interest in safety.

Doesn’t matter. The fewer lines of Python are more maintainable in human hours. I am not debating the efficiency of the compiler or program. I am however stating there is a massive oversight on the maintenance of the code, which would lead

If you want to spend the screen time to prematurely optimize in the name of future savings, knock yourself out. I’ve been doing this long enough to understand where efficiency gains exist—it’s not in human-conceived memory micromanagement.

I understand that premise—read my prior comment again, or do you, like the author, also not understand how code is supported?

by aejnsn 5y ago
This comes from an academic who doesn’t support any code. Why would I spend the time as a developer to do manual memory management under the guise of efficiency, when instead I can support twice (arbitrary) as many apps making a computer do

Apple needs to re-hash their ancient process for handling bugs and remove the entrenchment around Radar, internally and externally. Stop outsourcing your internal tools overseas and telling product engineers ‘it is like it is’. That clearly

Terrific. More stuff that breaks.

It’s like Apple has started listening to customers again.

> hop in and be productive Breeze and Jetstream are more recent optional packages, and Laravel is still productive without them. So effectively you are saying, “I wish Docker Hub had fewer images available, it’s more productive without.”

There are 128 hours left in a given 40-hour work week. Edit: funny the downvotes cannot disprove my simple math. :)

Thanks! I really wish they would have put me through training. If I recall correctly they did do a special mid-year for me. That was because of the VP, who knew I was frustrated about the position and HR. That same VP got tired of the rest
