One of Go’s strength is the opinionated nature that makes it easy for me as a developer to read and understand other’s code. It’s trivial to jump into the implementation of the standard API to see how things work.

I was on the same way - but stopped because of privacy concerns. Especially if the name is sufficiently different from others, it is becoming fairly simple to research people.

I try to understand things as deep as possible, often that goes together with building it myself. I am not satisfied with “that’s the way it works”. That worked well for a lot of things, I often read other people’s code to see how stuff wor

The most annoying bug is that at the moment one cannot print from the share sheet. For me, just nothing happens. Besides that, some layout/UI issues and FaceID sometimes needing a second try, it’s really stable.

It sounds like Apple's doing a lot of things very right with Card. I am curious when it's going to be available here in Germany.

With an on-site contract, "working hours" refers to all times on the premises of the employer (us) except for break time. For people working remotely, this is more difficult, there’s no clear definition. Eventually, I don’t see a

I do work in tech, in fact I am on the employer side. Our contracts contain clauses to prevent employees from using company property in whatever they do outside work but I would never had the idea to claim their after hour inventions.

Also located in Germany; I was not aware of that regulation. I only had one employment contract before I started my own business, but on neither side of HR, I had situations dealing with this issue. Thanks for pointing out.

My colleagues keep telling me my voice audio is awful when using the AirPods. Not sure if mine are flawed or if that’s just the way they are. Any experience?

What I cannot wrap my head around is word-wise moving in code. I just never really know where w or b takes me, let alone how many w’s it takes to get me to the desired word. My moving is mostly based on estimating counts; nth space (nf ) or

What really bugs me about JSX is the complexity it introduces to the build pipeline - which might be fine for senior developers, but I regularly see junior developers struggle with configuration and errors.

That's brutalist webdesign, which in fact is becoming more and more popular (again). However, it's not really sutiable for the "mainstream user".

I noticed that some of these often-used cookie accept overlays take an awful long time to apply my choice (up to a minute) when I opt out of all non-required cookies. I guess that is on purpose to annoy me to click “Accept all” anyway. I do

Achieving that is a difficulty task, though. Personally, I’d not like to rely on an abstraction on top of a system with that level of complexity for production because I expect to run into situations that can only be solved with deep knowle

I noticed that, too. The only actual third-party tooling we use is realize [1] which currently doesn’t work outside of GOPATH. Luckily, we work with Docker anyway so our code is mounted inside GOPATH and we can use modules commands on the h
