While I don't like the language you chose, and the way it presents your reply as snide, I'll ablige. I addressed that already. "The increase in number and specificity of building codes has come in-part due to foreign-made bui

totally. metal studs are widely used in commercial construction as well. you'll also see metal studs in finished basements instead of wood furring strips. they're used where they're a good fit, and if the region and condition

One thing overlooked is that the majority of the components were made in the U.S. This was pre-globalization, when even fasteners, pipe, and fittings were manufactured in the U.S. The increase in number and specificity of building codes has

Wasn't expecting the "why" section to be at the bottom, since that's where I'm used to seeing license and contribution info. Might be worth linking to that at the top of your readme so folks don't miss it. I wa

I receive a very small amount of donations on this platform for my work. I have some projects out there that are used as a dependency by a few million people. Fwiw in just over six months I've received around $20 and haven't cache

Remember Windows 95/98 and the shared-by-default $C network mount that was read/write to anyone? Had a lot of fun with that one in the dorms.

Saw them once in Northern Michigan and it blew my mind. Definitely an experience to have before you kick the bucket.

Conversely, if moon required code instead of config, I wouldn't give it a second look. Ecosystem needs vary greatly.

I much prefer YAML rather than having to write more code for a build system.

Bazel as a taskrunner/build system is to most monorepos as a Pile Driver [1] is to a floorboard nail. It will do everything but it's massive overkill. We are agreed that Nx doesn't measure up, but I wouldn't compare it

by andrew_ 4y ago
Nx is hot garbage imo. Buggy, overly verbose, inflexible, poorly documented, and I'm dubious about their peer review process. If I don't need build caching I'm not using any tool but PNPM and its workspace toolset - that&#x27

It's an alternative, and as stated is my favorite. If closed source bothers you, find another alternative. Or you could continue to reply insufferably. The choice is yours.

I'd hardly call a 30 year professional career in various fields and collars as "survivor bias." The network of people I've been exposed to over that period of time alone puts a hole in that argument. Tossing out that ter

I'm confused by that. When my health care ends by termination (of any flavor), I can continue to use that policy number and card for some time. I can then sign up for COBRA and continue my coverage using the same cards. Perhaps there&#

Too many are missing this. Recruiting, marketing, and sales are getting run through. There's been a glut of recruiters in the industry for at least 10 years. Anecdotally I'm under the impression most are low-skill workers.

by andrew_ 4y ago
Yeah that's bullshit. Came from a blue collar home, worked in the trades until I found my way into computers. Don't have a college education and carved myself out a nice career in tech being self taught and hustling for 20 years.

Disagree. What we saw for the last 4-6 years was a 0% interest rate phenomenon. The bubble has popped, hiring as a measure of growth is over, and things are normalizing.

GitHub flow is a natural companion to squash merges as a rule.

many popular javascript open source projects leverage this; webpack, vite, etc. It's very compatible with semver. all of my personal repos use it and any professional repos I have a say in use it.

by andrew_ 4y ago
all of that sounds awful, I'm sorry for your experiences. many repos are successfully using conventional commits in a way that's not low value, clear and concise in message, and useful in blame and walking history.

Skeptic yes, but OP passed hard judgement. If OP would have speculated or suggested a possible cause, that would be healthy skepticism. OP is dripping with bias and preconceived notion.
