Basically every language has been competing with JavaScript for at least a decade. Maybe even two decades. Tons of languages target the JS runtime, there have been countless languages that are syntactic sugar over JS, and dozens if not hund

Surely a hardware recall would specifically tell you to go to a dealer, right? I’m not sure it’s really confusing. The specific thing here is that these are mandatory things that are tracked by vehicle.

What they’re addressing here is the first of your important questions. The answer to that question used to be, “well yes if it was trained to” and they’re saying, “probably even though it doesn’t know anything about that”

I've worked with people that do this and nothing will put you on my never-work-with-again list faster. Hamstringing entire teams because you're doing something only for yourself is toxic.

I think OP was trying to say something like, "Management replaced our team because we were quiet and didn't rally around problems like other teams". I do think it was poorly worded and a bit jaded.

I just started using htmx in a new personal project. I’m pretty excited to see how it goes. I’m doing a sort of back to basics stack with PHP, simple classless css lib and htmx. So far it’s been a refreshing experience

I just forwarded this off to my wife because we joke about how bad most recipes are with elaborate backstories. This is a product that I really want while also solving a problem that doesn’t quite meet the threshold for me to actually do so

Yeah in hindsight I’m probably not. Probably my own bias of 1) hearing from people that online communication just isn’t the same 2) my own struggle with eye contact 3) being American.

I know I’m in the minority here but I’ve never experienced this. Eye contact for me is a deeply uncomfortable thing and I’ve struggled with it my whole life. I do make eye contact with people but I almost never sustain it for more than a co

I’d argue that your previous team was an agile team. My team also has 1 meeting a week where we go over the work for the week, and ask any questions we might have. We do retro like once a month but not always. Depends if we have anything to

Is that the “Let’s get going” button? It’s also not clear to me where I can start doing this right now. If it is that button I’d suggest some sort of soft sign up flow. It’d be really nice if I could join a double immediately, give an email

Then your renewal comes up and you’ve already spent another million in salaries and bespoke shit to make it work for you and the sales guy hits you with 500k again because you’re in too deep.

This is nonsense. Money is very real because it’s an abstraction for materials, goods, services, etc. If governments fail and currencies collapse yeah sure that money can’t do anything for you, but idk about you but my USD is good just abou

A company usually mirrors the values of its executives. You're right it shouldn't override the mission of the many, but the faults are baked in there somewhere.

Zoom does a similar thing with it’s closed captioning feature. Not sure if this was generated from zoom or something else but I’ve seen these sort of scripts come from automated closed captioning features.

Does PHP have a HashMap class now? I haven’t written PHP for a few years now but associative array used to be how they were referred to.

The last few years I’ve been getting out and playing guitar with more people. The thing I found most surprising was how most guitar players don’t know how to fix their guitars. I genuinely enjoy fixing my guitars.

2015 was the year of FP. Haskell was all the rage, elm was hot, large scale dismissal of OOP was in the air. To be clear I don’t think FP or OOP are really fads but their popularity waxes and wanes. I’ll see y’all in 2027 when static typing

My wife is a new chicken farmer. For the last year I’ve spent most of my weekends in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nothing but open sky and animals. Even when everything sucks, nothing is working, and I hate everything I still love wo

Not op but I’ve worked in Agile™ shops, places that are agile, and waterfall-y enterprise stuff. The biggest difference I’ve noticed between Agile and agile shops is that ceremonies or lack thereof make no difference. Pointing doesn’t matte

This is also why USPS is crucial for rural areas. The Government should be subsidizing this work because if they don't people in rural areas are left behind.

Reminds me of a rewrite I was a part of years ago. During the rewrite someone put a humorous picture of a coworker as the 500 page. In development it was amusing but we didn’t hit too many 500 pages so we didn’t see it often. When the launc

Absolutely agree. There’s an aspect of technology investments that you can’t really see payoff with less than a decade of experience. I know early in my career I didn’t really understand how technology choices were really investments

Fresh young folks work more for less and have less “distractions” outside of work. Less opinions, more likely to fall in line. When you need bodies ageism makes perfect sense.
