Printing money (whether that's relevant here or not) is simply not what inflation means.

Oh right, the money comes from… inflation. What are you talking about?

How's that?

Please, do us the favor of drawing the through-line between this action and inflation.

Generous of you to explain.

There's no reason to want to make it better (or understand it at all) unless you're also thinking about something besides the raw numbers.

Note that the graph seems to be overstating the difference by graphing £82k as if it was $82k. At the current exchange rate it's more like $98k.

I was very curious about this claim and it seems that's not quite right. Of course the phrase "essential complexity" was applied to non-software topics before Brooks (Wikipedia correctly notes that the distinction between ess

This paper was very influential on me when I first started programming professionally around 2012. I don't plan on reading it again, but my vague memory of what I got out of it is pretty simple and I think has become pretty standard pr

Ok, I did think of one. Buy comfortable earplugs. I keep mine in my pocket at all times.

You’re right about the gloves, I didn’t end up doing that one much. For the cream, I found washing thick oily cream off your fingers multiple times a day is a real pain.

I agree with commenter that there's a good reason general advice doesn't exist. I have some tips for the first couple of months that I collected in an iOS note after the second kid, but they're all little practical things tha

I experienced this while trying to get my air conditioner fixed on short notice during a heat wave last year. Got scammed in a minor way. Thanks for posting this. I saw it happening — dozens of clearly fake businesses with tons of 5 star re

The mission? Give me a break. It’s a tool for making mobile apps. Clarity about pay is an unalloyed good for workers, and being sneaky about it is only good for bosses.

There are still huge returns to concentrating nice in-person things besides work in one place. Nobody is attending zoos, museums, or restaurants remotely.

Svelte would be a good choice. It's important to note that there has been a ton of convergence in architecture, so for example, even though Remix uses React, the app architecture it encourages is quite similar to that of SvelteKit. So

Speaking as nearly-exclusively a JSX/TSX user, it is not really true that it is closer to HTML than Svelte's templating. People who like and use Svelte report the opposite.

This appears to be deliberate depending on the page. Looking at the network inspector as I click around, I see cache-control: private, no-cache on the responses for docs content, but I do see caching on the blog pages.

They are paid a number of shares and given an estimate of the value of those shares based on some share price. Amazon used an old share price, so the estimate was too high. The only thing being recalculated is the estimate. The number of sh

I think it's in Miami and the icon is confusingly centered over it. The icons look like pins but I think they're supposed to be hot-air balloons. This explains why some of them appear to point to spots in the ocean. https:/&

More like 3-5mm, or half the thickness of the phone. Which answers the question. (They're a lot bigger on the 14 than on my 12.)
