Local pizza is more like 100x better. I couldn't even finish a slice of Dominos, at least the one I ordered from on the west side of Cleveland. I've had better frozen pizza. I don't get who's ordering it. It's not e

Dominos put more money into their ordering system bells and whistles than the actual food, if you can call it food. I couldn't even finish a slice it was so bad.

For me, and especially because I work remotely, it's because there's no central gathering place. Schools and colleges make it easy to find friends. Work a little less so, but I still managed to have a lot of friends there as well.

I really miss the social aspect sometimes. Hangouts and Slack just don't substitute for real human interaction.

Why were businesses ever allowed to use SSNs in the first place?

I've been in #7 (perpetual crisis) a few times. Eventually, it's like the boy who cried wolf and you start tuning it out. I was a contractor, luckily, so it was easier to ignore than a full-time employee. Companies try to trap you

I haven't, but I recommended it to one of the devs and he claimed it 'crashed' docker. Need more investigation, but we shouldn't need tools like this; it should work by default.

A few things to note: I wasn't using Docker for Mac, but a custom VirtualBox setup that took over a month to perfect. When I last tested Docker for Mac, the networking was really slow then, but I took a gamble that it had been fixed by

Docker still has a long way to go in terms of local development ergonomics. Recently, I finally had my chance to on board a bunch of new devs and have them create their local environment using Docker Compose (we're working on a pretty

When are we going to reach the point that home theaters -- as in, covering your entire living room wall -- become economical? That's my dream.

Netlify is wonderful. I never thought to check if they dogfood their product, though. Sometimes, resources are allocated to new features and site redesign/restructuring work gets pushed to the back burner.

I can't tell if you're being serious, but will the costs to the taxpayer and possible unintended consequences and invariable corruption be worth it to add more layers of government to our slowly eroding free interactions? Since th

It may be simplistic, but I believe if you've done the time, you should not have a criminal record hanging over your head when trying to find employment. For a third or fourth time offender, I may give pause, though.

ChainCoin has no value proposition, nothing to differentiate it, and the dev team abandoned it a long time ago, so why would anyone purchase this crypto? It's the same with stocks; you have to be able to understand the financials, prod

That's odd because what about all the massive fraud and theft happening with regular fiat, despite regulations?

by ahallock 9y ago
What about cryptocurrency prevents things from being outlawed? And how has government eliminated illicit goods and services from being sold right now? As long as there's a market and the money is greater than the deterrent, people will

Isn't having nuclear weapons around actually a deterrent to war because of mutually assured destruction?

You named a few Google products to be contrarian and think that Google is far from indispensable? I'm calling bullshit because I'm willing to bet most of the non-Google products you use use Google somewhere in the chain.

I just used this on a Rails project where I didn't have time to integrate a complete React build pipeline. I needed it for a few small components with complex state requirements. It's been a joy to use. My one complaint is that fi

Call me simple-minded, but if you serve the time, you should regain all rights. How is any of this constitutional? Like, how can your right to vote be removed?

Was tipping included for Uber Eats? That's where it was definitely needed. I don't think it's a great feature for the ride service, though.

This is not an argument.

Your comment also seems like a fallacy. How do you really know it's impossible to list all the relevant facts? I don't think you've addressed anything, just made some imaginary goal line that you can keep pushing back forever

They can't justify the cost. I wouldn't want them to, anyway. It would mean fewer improvements for their non-crippled site as resources are diverted for the sliver of people who like to be contrarian.

Point taken. If you get amazing benefits and a decent desktop setup, it can make a lot of sense. Where I am, companies definitely don't offer amenities of that caliber.
