I'm of the belief that most project management voodoo is just that - voodoo. There is no rigor, there's no formal basis for ideas, and there's no testing of hypotheses and rejection when evidence counters it. Engineering (eve

I think that data captures the fact that there are more people being handed degrees without an education than there are jobs. Especially when there are thousands of mid career people on the market right now.

Publishing doesn't go through GitHub or another forge, it's done from the local machine. Crates can contain generated code as well.

People go to casinos despite knowing the house has the edge in games. Gambling is addictive.

You're missing finding library/include paths, build configuration (`-D` flags for conditional compilation), fetching these from remote repositories, and versioning.

FWIW: there is something fundamentally wrong with a meta-meta build system. I don't think you should bother generating or wrapping CMake, you should be replacing it.

Having a fee that's trivial for serious software developers but too high for script kiddies shipping trash is a good thing.

There is nothing stopping you from using third party certificates to sign Windows binaries. It's just expensive. You don't even need a MS toolchain or CLI tool for it.

I think they took the wrong signal from the people avoiding the default feed since it's filled with days-old posts you've already seen from subs you haven't joined.

Almost never is it useful for an app to have my contacts or location. That said only on some platforms is it possible to stop a native app from getting them.

JUCE has too many downsides to seriously recommend imo. "Just write C++" is also doing heavy lifting, since JUCE is its own bespoke flavor of C++.

imo the resizing test is not useful because it's a useful test of a common operation that needs to be optimized, but because it flexes on every major subsystem of the GUI framework. Another example is startup time. Time to first frame

I'm going to tear down spending $2.5 billion to test the toilets on a space ship every chance I get. It is a massive waste of resources and depletion of human capital that would be better spent on other projects that could advance scie

There's never non-zero value to any challenging engineering problem. The question is whether the finite resources spent to solve it are best spent on it versus other projects. And in this mission in particular, you can't divorce s

Do you think we will learn more from Artemis or the Asteroid Redirect Mission? Because that's a concrete example of how funding this mission caused other experiments to be cancelled.

My point is that DOGE killed a bunch of government programs that help people while saving no money, yet this giant waste of money survived. Cancelling Artemis II alone in favor of III would save a billion dollars by itself.

This opinion may be unpopular here but it's hard to get excited about a colossal waste of taxpayer money after all the damage DOGE did. I don't understand how these NASA missions with questionable scientific value and obscene budg

An even easier approach is to give all infix operators the same precedence and force the programmer to group subexpressions.
