Road damage isn't the only issue with weight though. There's safety, exhaust emissions, tyre and brake particles, noise, etc. I'm sure some of them don't have a linear relationship either. One of the biggest upsides to t

For me it's a case of being the worst open source image editor, except for all the others. The scripts always seem broken, the UI was a mess for a while on a Mac. The multi windowed system was great if the windowing manager expected th

Because, the vast majority of software engineering IS "factory" work because its the grunt work of building what should be a well understood system, with well understood tooling. I'm not sure it is, depending on which major

Yep, I had a 13" 16GB MBP in 2013. These don't seem very enticing.

When SPA's became the norm and even static web pages needed to be build with React I'm in a weird situation where I'm contracting into one organisation and they've contracted me out to another. The first organisation k

Is GCHQ having such difficulty finding staff? A large government department requiring niche technical skills on public sector pay and bureaucracy levels in a rural part of the country? There are probably some difficulties.

Even without turnover, I've no idea how you're supposed to compete with the quality of top open source software. Maybe no one finds the bugs in your software, but they're definitely there.

I've spent much of my career on similarly, perhaps a little more, restricted networks and found the opposite. Dependencies are painful to pull in and only pulled in when a dev needs a specific version. The internal repos end up being a

Probably preferable to having a very strong definition of evil.

Totally, I'm also 6'5 so definitely feel your pain there. Quite a contrast from my memories of being a kid sliding about on the back seat of a Mini without so much as a seatbelt.

I had one child and then twins, so I felt like I was just dropped into this. I was pretty shocked turning up with car seats at a Mercedes dealership to find we couldn't get three of them across an E class even without using ISOFIX. IIR

No, I think just America. Europe isn't so safety crazed. For instance, it's common for Europeans not to wear bicycle helmets. That doesn't hold for the UK. Maybe it's spreading.

Sounds like you've got an awareness of CRDTs now. That's a win and a differentiator from many other engineers. I already knew about them, but there will be a stack of other stuff I don't know about. Just get Googling when you

May 2015 we moved in. I've no idea what the engagement was like, but it was Redrow so I doubt they just slapped the 50 or so houses up and then thought about it.

I naively thought this was going to be somewhere like rural India, not the UK (albeit relatively rural Wales). I'm forever calling out engineers because the line crackles to the point it's difficult to take a call and my internet

I'm 20 years behind you Me too. And all I can do is point at Javascript in webpages. Which, as a Java dev (if I can still call myself that 15 years into doing all sorts of other stuff too), I want nothing to do with but somehow get d

I lived in Saudi for a time in the 90s too. The censors with their felt tip pens clearly had a variety of artistic talent. I found myself choosing from various censorings of Nirvana's Nevermind which had the cover with the naked baby.

Ah. I used pinch to zoom on my mobile - it didn't have the magnifying glass icons. That works, thanks.

I can read the text in the snippet without issue, but I clicked through to some of the full images in the web viewer and couldn't read the text at all. I tried downloading a few PDFs and still couldn't read them. Not sure if I&#x2

Yeah. I got told to put in a caching for a system that made very slow calls through a handful of proxies to the other side of the world and back. We went with redis for the "PoC". I'd tried explaining that if a query is only

My wife seems to think all boxes with pictures of lawns on are the same. About three years in a row now she's tried to get lawn seed and poured a load of cheap weed and feed on instead. Completely going overboard on the quantities for

Nonetheless I don't think English can function as an universal language because it is specialized in some regards. It is better for thinking about and capturing some things and ideas, but not for everything. Other languages, it seems

You lose the one huge opportunity in adult life for making new relationships - and that's at work, in the office. I think the usual expression here is don't shit where you eat. In other words it might serve you well to forge soc

Bug bounties seem to be a complete wild west. I've reached the point of assuming the odds are stacked so heavily that, from a purely financial perspective, it's not worth the investment just to report an issue let alone find it.

I fear Betteridge's law of headlines applies here. A CS lecturer of mine told us that when he was a student he had a lecturer who advised him to be sceptical of AI revolutions. That was nearly 20 years ago. I've no doubt we'l

They're issues, but I think they're fairly minor issues. I paid comfortably more than twice as much for a MBP and I only use one of the USB-C ports, admittedly for charging too. And it's pretty permanently plugged in for powe

Pretty sure half the reason SA and friends promote violent, reactionary interpretations of Islam... Is that a common abbreviation for Saudi? We used to use KSA when I lived there, but I don't trust South Africans not to be violent ei
