Beyond that, in the area I refer to, Southern New England, the vast majority of those buildings are still in everyday regular use, and with the exception of obsolete institutional or industrial buildings, very few have been demolished. Of c

My 1850 triple-decker has code compliant electrical and plumbing, egresses, common area lighting and dual exits. Definitely not accessible and the stairs are typical for the era— the last big brick building I lived in that was built around

It's the filter configured per user, or is it system-wide? I know you can filter per-user with IP tables and whatever the newer one is, but I haven't dug that deep into open snitch. Maybe a single trusted user account without a lo

Crappy? I'm not so sure about that. I've lived at maybe 15 Southern New England addresses in my life and the three built after 1920 were the cheapest quality. And it's not like they were one in a dozen, or even 1 in 3: from c

Their "windows dev drive" setup addresses this. I haven't tested it myself but I saw a couple of inexpertly executed tests showing significant performance gains. I honestly have no idea if my compile times are quicker.

Lots of developers think that. When you've got a working mental model of how software functions, generally, you interact with computers completely differently. Most people don't even think about 90% of the interfaces they use— fro

That's weird because the dozens of UI designers and also UX designers and researchers (UI design and UX Design are not the same thing) I know are employed doing exactly what they were trained to do. If you think UX was at an apex in th

All sorts of cleverness going on there. I'll bet they saved a ton of money on development by lowballing people on fiverr or whatever they did, and indirectly they'll also save a ton on bookkeeping when a russian ransomware group e

Ah! This is a great technique! Surely now that it's published it would be easily remediable in a compositing program like Nuke, but for more casual efforts, it's a solid test.

Publishers do a lot more than print things out. I'm not saying that what they do is good, but "let's just put it on the internet" doesn't replace publishers any more than rideshares replace long-haul trucking.
