Sorry but this doesn't add up and it's not fixable because the argument is broken and I doubt the numbers are even in the right order of magnitude when considered in context. (That's before considering that it also had the ef

Huge creds to the EFF for speaking truth even when it is politically inconvenient (see comments here...) This ban is infringing of IMO fundamental rights of individuals in US to share and use the TikTok app freely. That China is doing simil

This sounds somewhat backwards to me but maybe missing something... We got a bunch of Tuya devices and was barely aware they even have an app. They paired out of the box to a zigbee2mqtt gateway on the local airgapped network without fuss.

Is not very compatible with printlog-debugging. I'd rather encourage devs to prod around as they go if it benefits them, which causes grief for either them or reviewers in the end if they've internalized what you just said. Explic

5. Teaching `git add .` as default to add changes to the staging area is not ideal. Show adding specific files instead has less room for subsequent "oh shit" and better.

You have it wrong. Neither "open source" nor "free software" imply free-of-cost. Paid software with open and free license is very much a thing. If you want to drill into the details of the licenses: https://gi

The point is to be conservative enough that you stick to packages in distro repos, so that you don't need to pull in externally managed code. But if you insist or the use-case demands, at least python3-venv is an apt/yum/apk&

Then/or refactor out server-side storage. These concerns don't surface in the same way if you never touch the data. It sounds like a useful app but only if it can be safe. Which I don't belive it can become with a classic web

Good points in general. On the other hand, there are cases where (beneficial/desired) verbosity prompts copy-paste and tweaking - not due to complexity but from some form of scale or size of the input. In many cases this is a sign of s
