Raytheon does this as well. At least they did 15 years ago.

It’s possible to get polarised lenses that have about 50% transmission which is quite comfortable for computer work. At least for me they are anyway.

To make the term more useful to me I like to extend the analogy and think in terms of interest paid on technical debt. So you took a shortcut because of pressure to ship but now you’re spending loads more time providing tech support. That’s

Not that it makes any difference to your point but one of the A’s was born in 1976.

And if that replacement were not free then the costs would have to be passed on. There is a tremendous amount of free software that runs the worlds infrastructure. Programming languages, compilers, libraries, frameworks, text editors, datab

Thanks for this, it seems quite comprehensive. Personally I think once a “game” starts using a dark pattern I no longer consider it a game but an exploit for human weakness because they’re not acting in the interests of their players. A goo

I’ve gone back to IRC over the last 12 months. And I seem to hear more and more people taking about it so maybe it’s making a comeback. Maybe the slight technical barrier to entry will work out to be a good thing.

I also think measuring by value is particularly difficult. How do you compare complicated solutions against elegant solutions when the elegant solution is so nice it makes the problem look trivial?

If you had written any other athlete I would agree. But in this case I think 11 Messi's would win everything there is to win in football for a decade straight.

That leads to the idea that society and the sane people within it cannot distinguish between the insane and the hypersane.

They’re forcing China to change their current strategy which was to slowly and quietly impose their sovereignty. They’re putting China into a position where there are no good moves. Maybe we’ll see a unilateral declaration of independence.

In the UK taking a train is often (but not always) more expensive than driving and can take longer too. Depending on the route there might not be a viable service. The service in bad weather isn’t very reliable either. But for some routes i

I use Safari pretty much exclusively on both macOS and iOS and I saw my first amp page a couple of months ago. My first thought was oh there’s something different about this page followed by the realisation that it’s my first amp page. Sinc

No one intentionally makes shitty products. Or at least I’ve never heard of anyone who does. But I can sympathise with the people that made the decisions to put the plane in the air. I never intended to make products that customers wouldn’t

It’ll probably be Airbus that eats a portion of Boeing’s lunch (but not all of it). And whatever Airbus can’t eat will just go back to Boeing. An MVP for a passenger airplane requires considerably more effort and experience than an app, or

It's impossible to for me to say if it's bad idea or not. It could be either. I would consider the following points. But first I want to mentioned that the country just recently changed its name to North Macedonia. Do you speak th

I think you make a great point but the argument depends on the unstated assumption that master shit navigator == master architect, and I'm not sure how often that's true. They are different skills (maybe?) and while I'm sure

At least in the UK, this would not be considered unethical I don’t think. It’s standard practice to buy a building personally and rent it back to your own company. It’s what accountants recommend you do.

Twenty years ago I don’t think the word internship carried an expectation of being unpaid. The term ‘unpaid internship’ was used for that. It’s interesting that unpaid internships have become the norm so much that the ‘unpaid’ part of the t

Yes they were that’s how I know them. Object Desktop was quite nice. They moved away from OS/2 around 2000 I think.

While the term "Whataboutism" is effective rhetorically I find that it tends to silence rather than encourage discussion when the discussion strays towards pointing out hypocritical situations. While I can totally sympathise with

For what it's worth I've traveled on them about 15 times over the last few years, mostly to or from Shanghai and while it's comparable I'd say it's still way easier than an airport. At a glance though it definitely
