I would guess that at most 1 in 50 people familiar with SQLite even know Dr. Hipp's name, much less anything about him that might influence their perception of his work.

A substantial number of those 52 senators oppose free school meals not because they're "too expensive" but because the policy itself (the government giving free food to children) is something they object to on ideological gro

Then we get back to the problem of not having independent review, CI status, and deployability for each individual changeset. There's no amount of git competency that changes the fact that GitHub PRs operate at the branch level, not th

This isn't "how to use a hammer", though, it's more like "how to evaluate the completion of work", which is definitely something working teams have to agree on. git itself is almost irrelevant to the discussion

I would use "deleted_after" for the use case you describe (scheduled deletions). "deleted_at" is saying that an event occurred (deletion) at a specific time. There is never going to be a case where you have a deletion ti

The query isn't broken. In the Rails community at least it is very common to use a nullable frobbed_at column to indicate both "was it frobbed" and "when was it frobbed". In that context, the boolean check is always

I believe this restriction is meant more for people who are advocating self-harm ("kill yourself" memes and the like), which explains the isolation. I don't know how Facebook handles it, but on Twitter I've received diff

Arcade games are fun. It's great that we have more thoughtful, artistic games now, but not all games need to meet that description. I can still walk up to a Robotron cabinet and have fun, but I'll probably never play Braid again.

This is just arcade design. Vampire Survivors might have a more bombastic way of presenting random drops, but otherwise it's not meaningfully different from something like Robotron or Gauntlet.

I agree. The pattern I've seen more than once is is: 1) Adopt RabbitMQ without any experts on the team 2) Conceal Rabbit/AMQP functionality as much as possible behind a simplifying abstraction, often in multiple layers, often writ

Valve could use their market power to prevent this kind of rug-pulling behavior by publishers. Customers expect Valve to ensure that the software they provide is free of viruses, spyware, and harmful defects; this seems like a similar type

I think it'd be easier to get your bearings when actually playing the game, rather than seeing a montage of clips in a trailer focused on demonstrating the flashier animations.

"Gadzooks" is similarly a corruption of "God's hooks", referring to the nails on the cross. "(Cor) blimey" = "God blind me", "strewth" = "God's truth", and so on. Lots of

Under that kind of top-down structure, each team will force their organic processes into the Procrustean bed of what the project management system expects. Aggregating that data heedless of any variation in meaning will result in garbage. L
