That's the kind of need for text manipulation I would expect of a typical writer. Hence why bother with markdown at all (unless it's the only thing available). Rich text is a much cleaner solution for that. Markdown really shines

I think you're assuming and probably wrong.

Outside of the more technically inclined; Does anyone who is a long-form (novel) writer actually use markdown? Outside of blogging, which it was invented for and makes total sense for syntax conversion of free formed text to html is there a

Supposedly, there is a way. You can just remove all the apps from the whitelist. After that apps like Little Snitch pickup on the activity. Hosts file I believe still works as well but I haven't seen anyone who's tried it out yet

I didn't have access to a computer until I was almost 20. Incredibly fascinated by it, I sucked up all the knowledge I could. I started with general IT which turned into a generic call center help desk job. I did that for a few years w

It's entirely fair to compare Node to compiled languages. People often choose between it and those languages for backend code. The reason they choose Node most of the time is simply because they want to use the language across the stac

Honestly though. Every third party framework or component you use is going to have an opinion. Your only choice is if that opinion aligns with yours or not.

I'm not into the exact details of it. Needless to say I got dinged on it from my own company due to traveling (for the company) into the state and had a chat with HR about it and it was explained out to me what was going on. My guess i

A few days won't matter. However some states like New York have laws that if you're physically in state and working (remotely or otherwise) for more than 14 days in a year; you owe taxes on that income regardless of 'where&#x

We're one massive financial disaster from crypto currencies being the the main currency.

Having worked with and for many finance giants I'm speaking from my personal experience. Just like every other enterprise on the planet they tend to build their core tech around mature and easily staffed technologies. Both JP and GS ar

Seems like the way to fight back is to not give them your data in the first place. Stop using their services/apps.

It's likely a mix. Some jobs will get put onto other people, Some jobs will just go away and never come back. When they feel pain they'll fill the role with a contractor or cheaper person.

Not sure Python ever had any significant inroads. It's always been Java and C#. All other languages are pretty outlier by comparison. Golang has seen a big uptick in recent years though.

That's very much a two-way street.

I'm confused. Is there some aspect about a person being laid off that makes them more/less desirable that they need a specific service to help them find a new job? I know some people who have been laid off might be dusty with job

A lot of enterprise software isn't even sold to the people who will actually end up using it (users OR admins). It's some VP talking to another VP agreeing on terms/pricing for "good enough/checklist" and &quot

Pretty much this. We had a stint on Slack in our enterprise. We kept asking for full licensing for it, but the higher ups moved everyone to Microsoft Teams instead. It's not lacking against slack in any way. It really just comes down t

Can be, yes. Through combining network and non-network meta-data. If anyone actually has the desire to do so is another question entirely, but I wouldn't be surprised if certain state-level agencies have already begun to compile such d

It's way more complex than that. Pretty much everyone in government and the crypto space doesn't want Libra to succeed under it's current stewardship. The implications are very far reaching. Also, there isn't a single cr

That kind of difference is invisible to the companies paying for IT services. They pay the IT vendor, IT vendor sorts it out. We already do this today.
