Yes, thanks. I have read the article too. :) If American English isn’t your first language, please understand the emphasis in my phrasing of “one has to think...”

I grew up on the Clinch. While it's not as bad as other rivers in the area, one has to think the coal industry may have contributed to this. There's a coal-fired power plant and a massive coal wash plant in Russell County, VA that

You know, I’ve been thinking on this. You’re right. My office chair is way too comfortable—I need the backache to keep me motivated to leave work at work. /s

Ugh. Has the author had to use Teams at all? Seriously, call drops multiple times a day, horribly sensitive to VPN use, illogical UI, and the worst of all, it’s notifications are inconsistent, if not bad UX. Slack has its faults, but it’s r

The tooling you describe isn't relational. Furthermore, Monica has found great success in helping users with social challenges, maybe with ADHD. The workflow you describe isn't an ideal solution addressing that challenge.

You can host it yourself on your own server. Or, you can run it within Docker locally. I contributed to Monica a bit and the “desktop version” was always a huge GitHub issue. That, along with an impossible “E2E” encryption issue, devoid of

Wow. Other companies would kill for half that combination of enthusiasm and skill. Good job SW. Your paint covers like trash anyway.

Boom. That’s it. It’s not cheating that’s the problem—that would be an epitome of a red herring. Emulation of a traditional environment with online learning software is not how it was intended to be used, nor is it practical. Even when I wa

This is exactly the intended effect. Cuts the middleman out of what is an incredibly common sweatshop tactic. Everyone thinking the US is overly strict needs to look at how EU countries regard this with their priority principles in residenc

I worked for a company a few years back, for a short time, who bought engineers crappy Lenovo consumer laptops with a halfassed installation of Linux Mint and a resolution of 1368x768. They would not invest in appropriate processes/too

I don't know if I agree with the first bit. Wolves were reintroduced to my original part of the US to much benefit, not just the conservation of the species. Stupid whitetail deer were running wild, destroying flora and destroying too

My grandparents did some (mostly subsistence) livestock farming when I was a tiny kid. Donkeys are extremely territorial, and snap into this fit of pissed off rage when an intruder threatens their territory or what they identify as 'th

You have to understand farmers and farming. Do you think a true farmer is more dedicated to completing government paperwork or more dedicated to raising another head of livestock? For the gamers/hackers, this is why we fund judges, pro

Literally, I Ctrl+F'ed to look for a comment to this effect. Preach on. I would buy one if I could run it reliably in my Linux setup.

The Senate seriously asked that ambiguous question? Depends on what one views as 'bad behavior'. This is more tinder for more pre-election political ranting. Nothing productive here.

As someone who worked near that industry, he was just another one of the original boys’ club breaking the CWA since its inception.

Free software does not constitute a free service. It’s open source, host your own GitLab instance. Furthermore, this is as if GitLab is the only service to block Iran. I didn’t say the Persian people, I said Iran.

Following the pattern's analogy--I wasn't aware traditional circuit breakers were selective as to the device producing the load causing them to trip. I'd like to see evidence in this circuit breaker pattern itself being a pur

I am not referring to some sort of gateway, ESB, etc. I am referring to the patent application, which would be for a tool to port code from Assembly to another target language, the example they used being Java.

You're probably right. This problem just hits different in my mind because implementation is outlined in the IRC. If using the past is any way of predicting the future, I would imagine a history of bills and policy changes could indica

Shamelessly tagging off my own comment for another thought. Remember the articles about states' unemployment insurance systems at the height of the COVID19-inflicted unemployment in March? They kept talking about hiring COBOL developer

Why port a system from 40 years ago? I cannot imagine those systems are built with flexibility to endure policy changes of today.
