I really wish they'd go after Apple and Safari. Safari is basically the modern day IE. Whenever I do anything slightly weird, I'm fairly confident it works in chrome/Firefox and almost sure that it's broken in safari. Th

I'm not saying you're wrong, but that reasoning is why I have to prepare for interviews. I'm _really_ bad at remembering that stuff, I think it really depends on how you think while programming. I've got an abstraction t

So I've never been to a coding bootcamp, I have no idea what it's like. I strongly suspect the quality of teaching will vary greatly between poor/average/great/excellent ones. Determining if one is good would be a c

While I dislike the term "digital nomad", it's probably the shortest way to describe me. A lot of this list is biased towards things that travel well Real world stuff: 1. My moonlander keyboard. Small and portable and very er

Because in the past people did not care about people with disabilities. It's like saying why we need wheel chair ramps when we didn't in the past. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the current implementation, but it

It's definitely better than having a bunch of garbage "wip" commits, but it's still far from ideal in my mind. In your world, you'd git bisect and eventually end up in a 300+ line diff. > You want to split it in

Yes, exogenous testosterone will shut down the testicles and thus lower sperm production. Here's a random paper [0] but there's a lot of material out there. The hard part is balancing the sterilisation effect with other side effec

In the powerlifting community, it was a pretty well known fact. None of my women friends that competed (that weren't on anabolic steroids) would be on hormonal birth control because it would affect their training. I'm surprised th

Yeah, I agree with that. I should have been more specific in my comment. Going directly from feedback to _development ticket_ is (sometimes) bad. Sometimes when it's just "this is broken", it's fine. I agree that you nee

I totally agree. The worst thing is going directly from feedback -> ticket. Not only because of what you describe, but also because you end up with a product that is just a list of features without a coherent "idea". Especially

I'm surprised it can't do the last one. Sudoku solvers are basically on the same path as hello world. Everyone writes one when learning a language. There must be thousands of repos and guides/tutorials on how to write one (ev

Oh come on. As soon as any issue hits any "social media" site, the comments turn to shit with people inserting their own clever meme or whatever. The bug is well understood, there's nothing to gain from keeping the issue open

Have you been doing this for a long time consistently? Have you noticed your shoulders rolling forward? You do a lot of chest work but 0 back work. I'm not big into bodyweight stuff, but I did manage to cause myself problems in my earl

It works both ways, if you want something gone, it will remain forever. If you spend hours searching for something and finally finding a post on a forum from 2007 where someone goes "this fixed it for me: <link>", that link

Why do you believe the registers shouldn't exist rather than them being undocumented/test registers? Having worked in the semiconductor industry, this is pretty common. I cannot even begin to imagine how anyone could insert regist

I take it those laptops have an Nvidia card? I wouldn't try to use Wayland with an nvidia card. I hear it works better with AMD cards from other HN users. Personally, I don't think I'll be changing over anytime soon though, a

Yeah, I'm firmly against software that tries to helpfully fix mistakes and figure out what you meant. Anything that enforces semi-colons wouldn't have that issue. Every now and then some story appears on HN complaining that tools

I just can't see it making a difference. If they somehow catch the thieves, will they arrest them? What will happen afterwards? Will anyone sit in jail? Will it actually make a difference? My experience with living in the UK is that ne

A lot of people are complaining about the income requirements. But it seems fair enough that they are trying to attract people that will spend a lot of money and this contribute more to their economy. They aren't trying to attract peop

I agree that PowerShell is theoretically better since it can deal with structured data. But in practice, I could never get as efficient with it as I could with "the Unix way" (everything is a string). If I was writing a "prod

I'll be honest, I just took a bit of offence to the "sensible defaults" wording. I think there probably are some things you can do in vim that the vast majority would agree with. But I think you've gone a wee bit too far
294.
by doix 3y ago
Yeah, I don't think "sensible defaults" is correct. More like "my defaults". How do you split if ctrl+w is cut word instead?

by doix 3y ago
Yeah, and I think that's bullshit. If the implementation is so bad, then how is it infringing on the patent? You can't have it both ways in my opinion. I hope they go to court and lose.

There was another article with this quote[0]: > “If they don’t want to use our chip, I’ll work with them to make their product good,” Mr. Kiani said. “Once it’s good enough, I’m happy to give them a license.” It sounds like they didn&#x2
