I am more inclined to believe that a lot of people are dumping their donations right now. Listen to a few podcasts that rely on it, and it will be clear. I know that my patreon subscriptions are unfortunately the first to go of all my expen

Yes, exclusive search is a huge problem. You have to know to search for "solid colored shirt", but when you can't think of this variation of search, or maybe there isn't one, exclusion is your only option, and it's

They aren't. And your 7-11 should probably stop doing this too. I think we are taking a pretty big risk as it is eating food prepared by potentially sick people even when it's takeout or drive-through. I'll do a take-and-bake

Ohhhhh to be able to make it through a movie without having to go to the bathroom. And then to sit in line in a car to get in and out of a drive-in. I don't think it's even legal in most communities in the U.S. to not have facilit

"and developer just have to follow good practice" Uhm, the exact same is true with vanilla js. If you write crappy code, your code will be crappy even if you use a framework.

I agree, there's something much bigger at play here. They've been telling us NOT to wear masks. Why not put everyone in masks and gloves instead?

Being a sole proprietor / contractor right now feels hopeless. Nobody is spending money with me right now, projects on hold, no possible way of filing for unemployment. It's worrisome. Thankfully my wife is still working - but she

Not really, because most web developers only know how to do about 20% of what's on this page anyway. Do "well" anyway.

Yes, I am 100% on board with this. Nothing happens is exactly what we want, and WHY we are doing what we are doing. But there are too many people in this world that are painfully illogical and will think it's a "hoax" or &quo

Chasing our own tails. If this virus does very little to zero damage in the US, I’m afraid it will become the worst “cry wolf” situation in the history of humanity.... when the truly dangerous bug arrives.

1) Why are you assuming it will be 280 Million and not stop at around 59 Million like before? 2) Why choose a number like 6% when it's currently at 3.8%? 3) Why are we experiencing so much more panic over this virus?

Yeah, they are saying now that there's a 5 day incubation period for COVID19. Without widespread testing, we are going to have no idea how bad this is and how seriously fast we need to lock down facilities, particularly nursing homes,

That's why I said "diagnosed" because people die of pneumonia from time to time, and this can sometimes be a result of having the flu, but the pneumonia is apparent, but not necessarily that they previously had the flu.

People only have a need for these things because they don't know any other way to live. You can't fault someone for not being raised or inspired to try living in the woods (or wherever). Plus, it's completely okay to rely on
