Plenty of people in our democracy choose to work in noble professions that don’t pay well but are the bedrock for society. Excusing people’s ethics because of money makes it worse not better IMO. Especially in the context of tech where ther

It's probably easier to make a list of companies that don't ghost per company policy.

You sound completely out of touch. I honestly suggest you go to your local foodbank and talk to the people that use it. You should also go to your local nursing home that takes medicare residents as well. Tell them to their face what you tr

Low code solutions are already in this market and they are a pain to maintain and migrate away from. I can’t imagine AI solutions being better with current languages unless a new language is made to assist in this.

Yes, that's why it's useful to use real statistics and not rely on comments that attack Americans that had the audacity to be poor: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/americas-average-retirement...

Not every person was born into the elite or wealthy or corpo classes. My mom still works minimum wage jobs, she never had the ability to save any money. Especially when raising a family of 5. You should feel sympathy toward them because not

Yes, saving 20% when you have $20 left over your paycheck (or sometimes even negative dollars) might net you a solid $100k when you’re retirement age but I doubt you’ll be able to stretch it very fair since it’ll be likely you’re still rent

I really disagree on making things "easier," that's kinda my point. Forcing in solutions that work at Google or Facebook or Twitter into an experience that gets 0.01% of the traffic is bad engineering IMO. This example of a 1

You need to provide hard numbers because welfare fraud is typically less than single digits. Going by “vibes” is pretty useless, especially since the government has been the largest force in reducing poverty in western nations.

I’m really curious about the percentage of total software projects that have real scalability concerns. The majority of my career has been working on products that barely get 100k monthly active users. These projects don’t really need to wo

This seems like a good trade compared to wasting hundreds of hours on a failed migration because Vercel decided beta features are ready for production. Not to mention you’re learning transferable skills and not a proprietary stack from a co

I’m sure some team had it in their backlog for years.

Really? Can you explain what they do? Do they watch the raccoons take it? Do they look at you while they feed them? Sounds fascinating.

People still live there and the lack of a public school still affects them. Now I’m kinda curious if DC residents get in-state tuition in Virginia or Maryland or Delaware?

Anyone in particular you would you consider great? Always neat to follow the careers or happenings of the new blood.

That would be a boon to the company tho, because they can cut off more dead weight and lower OpEx. I think it’s more basic. Many cities rely on business/commercial real estate taxes to generate funds. Many of these governments also giv

Non technical architects are a thing, mostly at nontechnical companies. I use to work for a health insurance company that had these people. It went about as well as you expected. Devs were given very basic flimsy architecture diagrams that

The political and business environments are absolutely not the same when a chevron was ruled. It’s completely disingenuous to say corpos will be ethical when you see what kinds of companies fight the EPA. Corporations have vastly more power

With the added bonus of each jurisdiction’s judge deciding which regulations are too harsh against the poor corporations. My question is whether we will see the inverse happening: people suing local companies and winning lawsuits forcing th

I’m slowly reaching the same conclusion only with a more cynical bent. Most programming podcasts are just paid interviews it seems. It’s always the same guest on the same podcasts making the same comments. Very few hosts ask relevant questi

The best is when you join in the middle of a modernization initiative and find out that the only thing accomplished after 5 years was the frontend was rewritten in react but missing 90% of the previous features, every team is using k8s for

How do you expect Congress to legislate when one side refuses to legislate?

A good rule of thumb is that if they didn’t include a source there likely isn’t one.

Why is it insane? I never consented to this. Why do I have to do so much to protect myself when I never signed a contract with any of these advertisers?

Yes but the issue is that Vercel has all the core Svelte maintainers on their payroll too. My Q is why would we expect Vercel to not interject as well? I mean we have evidence they did this in one community library, why not another? That is

by azemetre 2y ago
Since Vercel is doing this to React why would we think they wouldn’t also do this to Svelte? Maybe I should check out Vue again, there’s something to be said about open source libraries that succeed without corporate ownership.

I don't think that's fair, Google is a monopoly with anticompetitive practices. Why is it a shocker that they would forbid AGPL? They want to have their fiefdoms while charging exorbitant rents. They can't compete fairly. Als

I mean GitHub was literally built off of Git (GPL) and they had zero issues being acquired for $7.5billion.
