   I sometimes use term "mid-level engineer syndrome", for "too many levels of abstraction in the codebase". It is very common in my experience. And untangling it's usually harder then extracting common stuff from &quo

   wow. Does ADA lawyer thing work with whiteboard interviews? I'm only half-sarcastic, I hate my handwriting and this makes whiteboard interviews double hard for me.

   You don't have to sacrifice that simplicity, actually. (And I insist on that simplicity being a wrong type, it'll bite users of your library basically right away, when they try to use it for anything apart from storage/serial

   the same stuff happened long time ago with ruby. I mean, not exactly the same stuff, ruby was perl-inspired from the start. Nowadays instead of `perl -lne` oneliners I usually make `ruby -lne` oneliners, just for a chance my coworkers coul

   I'm really surprised by this move. Starlink will need as many customers as it can get all over the world, and there're too many countries, even some in EU, who'd want to filter some content, or otherwise would ban terminals.

   optimizing for simplicity is optimizing costs and speed of further changes. So, basically the same as 1) and 2). Effect isn't immediate, but it's not in a far future.

    I always wanted to ask, why such circle-crop formations are usually in a square greed, instead of hexagonal? is it because it's easier to move tractors and other stuff between them, or is it because land isn't that scare resource

    I'm just a bit of a fan of Elon Musk. It won't happen by 2028 of course. Price isn't a problem at all at scale, but regulatory pressure will be. If a cargo point-to-point flight will happen, it already will be something, but

    calling many of those a "good reason" is.. I don't have a word. Something brittish probably. But yeah, just calling it out straight away sometimes shuts down communication, people become combative, and that's not good if

    To have your own mountain just to dig it up and ponder about stuff! What an usual idea. I'll remember your comment, thank you. Who knows, maybe I'll pass by sooner or later.

    This is weird, because it requires actively planning for your death (which some people do, of course, but most do not), and also because it does nothing that can't be done by just cloning repos.

    I wonder, will there be a breaking change for older syntax, where it was previously foo x: [1,2,3] Or maybe that "punning" will work only inside of () and {}?
