I personally have problems with doors, and stuff that should be locked. I can never be sure I locked properly. Totally did backtrack unreasonable distances just to check if I had closed the door. It's all fine when it's my door. W

Where on earth do you find the time to read 1000+ books? What kind of books are you talking about?

Came up with "emoRade edaRome" ("must contain a capital... of a country"). Apparently someone came up with that before me? How? Who? I want names!

I don't pay anything for support at AWS, and I had <24h response every time I needed them, despite having a ridiculously low monthly invoice. That is in stark contrast to other providers to which I give a lot more money, and who can

Price changes are a concern indeed. But I think if you get something form your country, or a .org, it should be mostly fine. I've had the same .org domain for around 15 years now. Except for the coup we've seen last year where som

Not to mention testing a mobile app with a mouse is... well, not the intended use case, to say the least.

I've been on long hikes. I've also broken bones, some of which will hurt until the end of my life. I agree with your point of view on hikes. It's a mind game. But that's not the whole story. For some people, pain doesn&#

Couldn't agree more. Actually, even non beginners should be reminded of that, sometimes.

For some people, bootcamps could be the right entry point. I started by building websites in a wysiwyg editor :)

Didn't say it's impossible. I know great developers who don't like the command line. Dude, it's just a metaphor.

No matter how easy something gets, some people will spend enough time on it that it becomes "hard" to reach their level. As for your note about css editing, have you tried Brackets? http://brackets.io/

Agreed. Notepad for the win!

I'm thinking in particular about Kibana (part of elasticsearch stack). I used it, it's absolutely awesome. It's a paid feature though.

I feel like the author is confused between server-side and client-side development, and proceeds to say that programming is hard. He even goes on to quote himself (sigh) as a proof of what he proposes. Look, maybe someone just explained it

PiHole and strict privacy settings on the browser. I'm guessing the settings are a little too strict for them. I'd be ok with (some kinds of) ads, but I guess that always comes with privacy issues.

I know I'm not supposed to complain about lousy web design. I've been told in the past. I know. But still. I don't have an ad blocker. I'm using a run-of-the-mill browser here. Won't tell which one, you would probab

I was offered the opportunity by a former colleague. He was a project manager when we first worked together, and moved on to create his own consulting company. It was an iOS app developer role, with lots of UI work (make the button blue) an

Hello, fellow dev! I found myself in the same position after roughly two years or career. Fast forward about 8 years, and I'm now happily freelancing, working with an awesome team and yet very much working alone on my code. A few thing

Git still works great. Why would it need to be replaced, just because it's 15 years old? I can think of a zillion things that are over 15 years and still very much working.
