I think a new license should be created in order to facilitate this.

I imagine your commit log would be polluted with commits just for changes in the packages.

I am still frustrated that npm install defaults to `^1.0.0` installations instead of exact `1.0.0` versions.

Agreed. It's harder if you are poor because you tend to gravitate towards cheaper items which are usually processed. A lot of anecdotes on avoiding sugar handwave away 1) the time to plan and cook 2) the convenience of having access to

I can justify using a debugger in a backend language like Python. But it's a pain in the ass for browser javascript that is generated from Typescript/Coffescript or whatever the flavor of the week is.

It's sad that ergonomic keyboards are relatively expensive compared to even other expensive mechanical keyboards.

Doesn't matter. Every developer will still be at the mercy of the whims of the majority unless you find your own niche.

It's because they are not penalized by that mindset. Employeees don't push back. Heck, some people will gladly sell their time for "passion" or "ambition". It's always about incentives.

First time I have heard of container queries. Goes to show that web development is really a non-stop learning endeavor.

Don't be an apologists for these companies. These megacorps have a big influence on the fabric of society. They must be held to a higher standard.

I started with Consider Phlebas but stopped because it seems too slow for me. Does it get better in the later chapters?

VR games like Beat Saber and Smash Drums do make me enjoy songs with strong beat/rhythms more.

I am interested in how to improve one's writing, especially in creative nonfiction. Unlike programming where you can get feedback immediately from the computer if you make a mistake, it's usually not easy to find a mentor to give

It's possible that the went back to the old keyboards for another reason. Not because they dislike mech keyboards but because of analysis paralysis.

I usually evaluate companies at the 1 year mark. I will switch if there is a better offer. Like 30% or more increase.

If I work on different environments or desks, customization is the last thing I want. I would rather have sane defaults and start being productive immediately.

I think it will be ubiquitous in the future. But I am less interested in when it will become mainstream but more interested at which point it will be lucrative to developers and content creators.

I immediately had the same reaction. Granted I am beginner and more on the pop side of things than classical. But it still surprises me about the amount of effort to master the instrument.
