I think a tool like GitHub Copilot is worth far more than $90/year and I'll gladly pay for it. Probably up to $500/year or even $1000/year I'd pay for Copilot. It has saved me so much headache and time. There's

I'm open to believing anything, with appropriate evidence. The author makes specific claims about being judged by their manager for their religious beliefs. I'm not sure that's going to be enough to win a discrimination suit,

I think the comments on Hacker News tend to suffer from Selection Bias of the most Online engineers. I wouldn't trust the highest voted comments as an accurate depiction of reality. In the same regard, I wouldn't trust any comme

What are the proposed alternatives to individualism? Collectivism? No thanks. I've seen what that does to the human spirit. I'd rather take an extremely individualist culture and then fill in the gaps with taxation and some level

I've been asking this for months, and I can't seem to find an answer anywhere: I'm unable to get debugger breakpoints in Async functions in Rust to actually break. Is this a known bug with Async Rust? Or is this simply unsupp

As an experiment, I'd love to see a forum which required all users to use their real identities, where identities for user accounts must be legally verified through an accredited notary service, similar to E-Verify/I-9 verificatio

The FFXIII series did this really well. I took a year to finish FFXIII, and even with its complicated plot I was able to follow it because of the recaps that would be presented to me every time I'd start the game up. I think it's

Is there much support for debugging async Rust functions? I'm not able to get breakpoints to trigger in async Rust functions when using lldb. Am I missing something? This seems like a REALLY broken experience.

For the ACA, whether it's better for you or worse for you depends on what income bracket you're in, whether you have preexisting conditions, and what kind of health care your job previously offered. Whether it's better or wor

I breathe such a sigh of relief when I see a Sheffield stand available when I'm looking to park my bike. I also love the extreme brutalist look it gives to the buildings its next to. Punk as all hell
