I would say it's more like purchasing a standard transmission instead of a semi-automatic transmission because a standard transmission gives you better control on slippery roads.

I'm not sure I understand rejecting a library because it allows two-way binding. If two-way binding doesn't work for some control, nothing is stopping you from falling back to one-way binding.

Nope, I happen to think the round images are a bad change.

Do you have any tips on how to convince management they don't have big data? My company's largest database has been in production for 10 years and could fit into the RAM on my dev machine, yet I'm constantly pushing back agai

As-is, I don't think it's a big deal. This is a slippery slope though. Look at what cable television has become. You pay for the product and they shove advertisements down your throat. Satellite radio is doing the same thing.

I formatted a few weeks ago. After installing Chrome and opening it, a popover appeared over the Edge icon in my toolbar explaining how much faster it is. I've also seen a few OneDrive ads.

It makes me sad to think about how much better software could be if we didn't have to worry about terrible people.

This is my experience as well. The largest struggle I have with Redux is understanding where things belong. Where do ajax calls go? Should I use redux-thunk? That feels like an anti-pattern to me. Redux-saga is interesting, but it's go

Thanks for the clarification. I'll give this a try... maybe on Monday. This seems like a Monday task.

Password managers tend to struggle when the login process is fragmented over 3 screens that include 65 redirects. I use LastPass religiously, but I don't even try to make it work with MS accounts.

If Google had the same terrible UX, I would rant about that as well, but I've never had a single problem with any of my Google accounts. I cringe every time I have to do any type of maintenance on one of my MS accounts because I know i

This sounds right. So this prompt is essentially asking me to tell them which buttons my boss pressed when he created my account.

That's a nice theory, but we don't have office 365 and I didn't create the account haha.

It looks like [email] is used with more than one account. Which account do you want to use? - Work or school account - Personal account I get this prompt every time I try to log into Azure with my work email. If I choose the work account (t

I had a surgical procedure done at the beginning of the year. I hadn't explicitly shared this information at any point online or visited any websites related to the surgery. A few days after visiting the hospital for some tests, Google

My largest concern is how frequently is my code sent to the cloud? Sometimes when building integrations, I hard code private keys just to get things working and then pull them out into config files that aren't checked into source contr

The mistake here is using JSON for configuration.

Also C# to VB. That's pretty much a one-way street in .NET development. I have yet to meet a developer interested in moving from C# back to VB.

Azure WebSites are dependent on Azure Storage and our application has been restarting all day long. Our customers are not happy. I find it interesting that they are just now admitting to this issue. Does anyone else have major issues with A

This isn't entirely accurate. I told my RN Fiance this story and she said "oh 404, that's like... page not found or something isn't it?" She has zero programming experience.

I have interviewed two "senior web developers" with "10+ years" of experience that were unable to tell me the difference between a 404 and 500 http response code. Of course, they had perfectly memorized answers about Jav

Every time I look at lists of HTML5 elements, I about how I really need to get better at writing semantic HTML. Tomorrow I will go to work and create 500 more div tags.

For certain kinds of applications, I agree. If you're building a business application which requires forms, validation, searching, and some reports; server rendered apps enhanced by sprinkles of jquery is probably a better solution tha

It's such a shame you had to pirate that CD. I feel happy for young/aspiring programmers today. Open source has made programming so much more accessible.
