Much about the registry exists due to legacy and its rather informal beginnings.

I just so happen to have a dataset of every single email address in the NPM registry (and any publicly accessible email addresses for associated GitHub repo users). It wouldn't take long for me to stream those records using that domain

My wife ended up being my first match on there. The rest of my matches were ... not great. I thought I remembered it being one a week, but maybe it was daily.

Coffee Meets Bagel was similar back in the day. You got one match a week.

This would almost certainly require some advanced sea traffic mitigation. See the Sunshine Skyway Bridge Tragedy [1]. Even with openings for vessels, there's a real threat by large vessels. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2

My number one question is how they plan to dredge the seabed and keep that surface flat enough for the tunnels to sit on. connecting with millimeter precision would require a flat surface, no? Fascinating.

I don't believe so. How do you find it self-contradictory?

One less dopamine hit that I can definitely live without. I also feel it gives people less incentive to craft replies for others and instead comment intelligently (yes, there are many replies which are not that, but I have faith the major

The job market is on fire. Devs are in crazy high demand, and everyone is looking for Seniors+. My advice would be round out your profile on LinkedIn if you're looking for middling Senior level jobs, and you'll get bombarded by re

I still find that DDG's programming related results are limited and often resort to using the Google command to find what DDG couldn't.

> So I guess you don't need to act astounded any more. Consider that the verbiage chosen is very easily construed as snark, or at worst a personal affront. If you meant neither, better words could have been chosen.

Or perhaps I authored the reply when the replies were heavily in favor. For someone with a history and karma to reflect it here, your cynicism and snark doesn't serve you well in this instance.

I'd like to say, as someone who has not been exposed at any degree to those who are blind and use computers/internet; I am very taken aback with the composition and vocabulary you're able to convey in written form having not

The number of comments on this that are just fine with wild authoritarian abuses like this "because vaccines are good" is astounding. People have such idealogical myopia and are shocked and appalled when the same measures are used

sorry that you haven't had luck with the method I use, but glad you found a good one for your practice. I've been growing fruit trees in Florida successfully as I described for over 10 years and 200+ growths and grafts. (It's

EventSource has been around for eons, and is what the precursor to webpack-dev-server used for HMR events. It had the advantage of supporting ancient browsers since the spec has been around a long time and even supported by oldIE.

Do you know that most old school (circa. 2010ish) users know that, but that new school users thinks it conveys "expert" or "authority"?

from what I understand, it doesn't have the same anti-pathogen properties as coir.

For growing mango from seed, or really anything from seed, you cannot beat a small plastic container (like what cottage cheese, sour cream, or green yogurt might come in) filled halfway with coconut coir. It's absolutely the best mediu

verified account status these days is meaningless. most of the truly interesting, unique thoughts come from accounts that are not. this is of course my own take after having been on the platform since 2010.

> Why? Because it's always good to have an excuse to work slower. Oof. What's better is setting and going by your own pace and making sure you're projecting expectations with regard to that pace.

Absolutely agree. I moved on from a very high level engineering position last August for exactly these reasons. A mountain of technical debt the size and breadth of the Rockies that was not being addressed was dragging everyone down. I&#x27

This reads to me as an incredibly reductive take on a real-world problem, offloading blame/responsibility to engineers to properly frame something which very few engineers fully comprehend or can intelligently convey. I understand the
