Honestly, it sounds to me like the two of you made a mistake getting married. The differences in your values are irreconcilable. Your wife is a human being with thoughts and feelings and experience just as fully fledged and valid as your ow

I don’t hate linters. I hate linters that are a ginormous PITA to install, set up, and configure. I also loathe repos with linters configured that work in one person’s working copy but not another’s because the moon and mercury weren’t corr

Pretty much this. I’ll go up to about 16 chars, personally. 20 is too much. There should be one and only one obvious way to spell it, and preferably one obvious way to pronounce it. (If reasonable people could disagree about pronunciation,

It can’t think for you. It can type for you. Treat it like an intern and a rubber duck. It may be able to suggest the names of existing algorithms, but unless they’re absurdly common or simple it’s unlikely to be able to implement them for

I would guess that a book in bright sunlight is lower contrast than black on white on screen due to how the ink reflects light as well as the paper. There may also be effects related to the physiology or neurology of how our eyes and visual

Complex FE builds (anyone who tells you that JavaScript is an interpreted rather than a compiled language is lying — at least as used in 98% of modern apps). Overreliance on SPAs. Software that works fine on the developer’s 6-month-old high
