Recently bought a house with a beautiful backyard on a pond. I put a couple bird feeders up because I noticed a cardinal male and female occasionally hanging out on the lawn. Now my yard looks like a bird sanctuary! I love it. My next step

They make for nice little quiet home linux servers if you need more power than an RPi. A mac mini would be a good choice, too, but then you're stuck on macOS.

Demand isn’t as reduced as you might think - mortgage rates are trending a couple points under fed rates (I’m not exactly sure how but as someone who just purchased a house I can tell you that’s what I’m seeing). The house we bought we bid

Personal boycotts don't have to have a large impact or meaning outside of however you feel about them. They're just for you: you can decide to allow your principles affect your economic activity or you can default into the powerle

The way I see it, if Deno only ever existed to push node to do better that in itself is a universal win for everyone.

I have the exact same problem/frustration and yet my wife consistently cooks the entire meal near or at the estimated cook time. Clearly I'm not as efficient as I think I am!

Google doesn’t really “lie” though, it gives you the source and allows you to make a decision about its authenticity instead of masking it.

I don't think so, I assume it's some more dated ML approach -- my point is moreso that it's not obvious that it's a good solution for this problem yet.

Exact same here. Coding a script for my miner to automatically hit the high value ore spots and detect if any PK was in the area (and recall to safety) was one of my first major programming achievements! I recall making a similar comment to

Agreed, but I can’t help but think that this is just a poor man’s typings for languages that don’t directly provide them.

I found this indie game that I LOVED the artwork of a while ago: https://adamstrange.itch.io/viva-mortis Seeing Knight Lore, it very clearly must have been the inspiration for Viva Mortis. How cool. Thanks for sharing.

I can tell you as someone in that age bracket I have never had more opportunities and a higher paying salary at any other point in my life than right now, without a doubt. Even in the current economic climate I had 3 interviews this week an

I have definitely learned a lot too but it’s rarely from the knee-jerk first responses on tech posts.

Are the alternatives still plentiful? I'm not sure that's true even now, and I doubt even moreso that will be true in the coming months.

Why do the support costs go to zero? I would think iPads would bring their own set of problems/hazards that laptops may not have.

You don't lose that much utility of git bisect unless your PR's are typically large. One thing squash and merge does is make reverting trivial.

Microservices are usually a solution to an org. level scaling problem before a technical scaling problem*. It's easier to coordinate development resources around small codebases than it is larger ones. It's a human problem, not a

According to the Google Inactive Account support page, they aren't actually assuming the account, they're just getting access to the data. So, presumably, they'd just download the data and that would be it. https:/&#x2F

If your `Foo` object has 60 potential character definitions... that sounds (smells) like it would be a code smell of something wrong upstream. Perhaps it's time to refactor the function. Ignoring the 60 different character definitions

It's usually a soupy mix of salesforce API integration work and wading through tons and tons of programmery-looking user interfaces. It's not hard, but it requires an incredible amount of overhead to first understand various diffe

Even in that model, it's the developer deciding what is an app and what is a site. There's no inherent need for a real estate investment dashboard to act like an app instead of a plain old website. It might serve many of the dev
