You're quite right that the recipe is abused by a cook. I like that analogy! However, I think a vanishingly small number of corporations care enough about the recipe to cook it properly. The recipe itself can be abused. A better recipe

I've done waterfall and agile over 20 years and have yet to see a SCRUM like system deliver for either the business or the developers. Agile (regardless of SCRUM, Sprints, LEAN, KANBAN etc) only works where the whole project breathes i

Know at least in part what you're going through. Submitted by crap draft of my PhD thesis in 2003 and then spent 4 years in full time non-academic employment doing the huge list of revisions in my spare time and commuting on a train! Y

Feel for the workers being laid off and those that remain. I've been in teams that got decimated and the aftermath is rough. Although it's just a job, you can't help forming a bond with those that you work together with. Hope

No, that's not what I'm essentially saying. Of course autistic can learn - it's called "masking". Masking causes trauma . Not just "finding co-worker annoying" but "not being able to go outside, not

Neuro diverse people can't necessarily change their behaviour because it's how their brain is wired. It's like asking a visually impaired person to just see better. Many neuro diverse people have to force themselves to "

On Android I use Do Not Disturb mode but people I really need to hear from (like my elderly mum) are put on a starred list and they get through[1]. I can then turn it off, have all the cached notifications appear, deal with them and then sw

Not relevant because crypto isn't a threat to fiat banks any more than fiat currencies are a threat to crypto. It will remain that way until large scale human effort and day-to-day expenditure is directly payable by crypto. That's

Perhaps it's because open source maintainers are people rather than corporations. People have the right to decide when to use their free time. In this case, this individual has decided not to support crypto, as is their right. Making s

Similar issues can be found with drones too - STM32 flight controllers and gyroscopes are both in short supply. The prices have lept up and supply has dwindled.

I didn't expect to be able to time travel to 1996 by clicking a link, but I'm exceptionally glad I did. Thank you!

Quite right. BBC.co.uk is mostly edge cached. Lighthouse can't test that version because of the redirect.

If interviewing at SMEs, tread with care - the people interviewing you won't necessarily have good answers at their finger tips and that isn't necessarily a red flag.

Rather than the skills, the difficulty most companies have with ML is that they don't understand their data before they begin. There's a data engineering piece of work required before the data science.

The title says Britain, not Great Britain. I was making a pithy remark based on that. But seeing as everyone's in the mood for educating me, here's the logic behind it: Britain was an invention of a King that wanted rule of the wh

Trick question. They didn't. Britain didn't exist until 1707.

Bravo gov.uk, the design/web team do a fantastic job. I'd be the first on the bash-the-government bandwagon but their work is exemplary. If they can work with modern js alone and still be compatible to people on Safari 9 and IE11

I'm delighted by this. I'm not entirely sure why but I am.

You're right, I do understand that. My issue is with Drew DeVault's blog linked at the top, which I quoted. My advice is that if someone is hitting out at you then reply with statements, evidence and not emotional hyperbolic langu

Not OP but its editing is also pretty advanced and with some YouTube tutorialling, it can muster some effects you might find in Adobe After Effects. Resolve has replaced Adobe Premiere Pro for me. I'm happy to have saved the subscripti

For anyone new to the topic; don't panic at the size of the vertical scrollbar in the article - the majority of it is comments! The article itself is succinct and not a huge read.

I knew of one reliable Windows Me machine that needed a driver update (perhaps printer?) it became the most unstable operating system I'd ever seen. It would suddenly blue screen halfway through a Quake 2 session.

I play ED and this is pretty impressive. It's built in three.js and comes in at about 3MB running in a browser sandbox. The world isn't either/or. Both can be impressive.
