It's the license. The MIT license is what makes VSCode the defacto answer. It also runs on the web, which makes it extremely convenient to toss into...web things. It's the code editor for the Google Cloud console, the Lambda web c

I mean, sure, fine, but nobody cares that some rando on the Internet doesn't agree to the ToS of Zoom. The article has no actionable information, is not interesting, and is beating an old subject to death. When I get on conference call

It sucks that people get laid off, but there are a whole lot of finished low growth products like this that have bloated teams. I don’t really see any lying going on. Which statement was a lie?

I don’t know if history is on repeat, but it rhymes. Trump is a traitor to the United States. Society’s biggest failure was its inability to take off the sanewashing kid gloves and put him on trial for the big boy crimes he committed before

Because nobody can. Safari breaks on all kinds of popular websites while Firefox’s bucket of nickels development budget does a better job. Apple can’t even make the back button behave smoothly. Popular doesn’t mean good. Safari sucks. From

My anecdote: an entire start to finish app. I didn’t write a single line. > I personally can't accept shipping unreviewed code. It feels wrong. The product has to work, but the code must also be high-quality. What’s the definition o

It’s not that stupid, I think many PC gamers do exactly this, including me. Still, it’s a bug that should be fixed.

How many business units have Google and Microsoft shut down or ceased investment for being unprofitable? I hear Meta is having massive VR division layoffs…who could have predicted? Raw popularity does not guarantee sustainability. See: Vine

I believe they won't because that's what's in their marketing copy. Their selling point is a lack of those features. Organization of volunteers, collectives of people, why aren't they using free stuff like Discord that i

Because it’s not just Teams that’s broken, it’s a solid percentage of the websites I visit. Apple can’t blame developers for their browser’s inconsistency. Firefox has 1/10th of Apple’s market share and that browser is clearly more com

You either update the software in the background, you update it manually, or you leave the software out of date. Microsoft offers you all three options and you don’t like any of them. I don’t quite understand what mystery fourth option you

Honestly, not crazy. This is should have been how it always was. Why should search engine crawling be opt-out rather than opt-in?

Some day in the future, this could be a lot like saying “hand-building engines matters to employees at Aston Martin.”

The Microsoft AutoUpdate tool is fully configurable so long as your organization doesn’t have any specific forced configurations. You can uncheck automatically update and install. You can decide whether or not to run the background service

Did you build a library? If you did, did you put yourself in a clean room and forget about every existing library you’ve ever seen? Have you made sure your code doesn’t repeat anything you’ve seen in a CS101 textbook? Is your hello world co

All I know is the other two browser major engines work a lot better in practice than WebKit. I don’t really know or care as an end user if WebKit represents browser choice. The fact is they Apple isn’t putting enough effort in to making the

Idk, your superiority complex about the whole issue does make it sound like you’re feeling threatened. You seem determined to prove that AI can’t really make any decent output. What’s even the point of writing out that first paragraph other

The main feature you seem to be interested in is the fact that you’ve saved yourself 100x infrastructure costs on your back end and that the app performs well. But that doesn’t benefit end users at all, that isn’t a solution to business pai

If you had just downloaded Teams it would have worked fine. It isn’t Microsoft’s fault that Safari is a shit browser and the macOS people who keep it as their default won’t switch to something better.

I see nothing mentioned about integrating webhooks or some kind of similar feature. The Slack app ecosystem and the general ease of integrating literally anything into it is the revolution of the whole thing. It’s great that this is “Slack

I would add to this: skills mean nothing if you don’t use them. OP made a site with a bunch of calculators. Their critics didn’t make that!

I would submit that this could be based on a stereotype that “coder = antisocial.” Why are we assuming that people who write code don’t have soft skills? The youngest generation who joined the profession are probably in it for the the salar

At this point most EVs are exactly the way you describe and Tesla is an outlier. Look at Hyundai/Kia’s lineup. The Niro, EV6, and EV9 are essentially the three major segments of American car preferences. They aren’t particularly fast o

To add to this, almost nobody statistically keeps their vehicle very long. People keeping a car for 20-30 years is extremely rare. The median length of car ownership is something like 7 years. Even if you are switching between used cars, mo

It’s so funny. My company is basically merger hell and we have both Teams and Slack for similar reasons. One of the more important acquired companies with a cash cow product basically refused to move to Teams because they hate it and concoc

I have always found the American perspective on this subject annoying precisely because of the crazy emissions and consumption per capita in the US. It feels like US citizens intentionally or not gatekeep wealth, and do nothing policy-wise
