I'm not a fan of the package used here, the syntax of chaining functions to validate a single input within your routing file, something that should likely be fairly static. At my old company, we used `whitelister`. We created it in-hou

As another response mentioned, the "socially agreed upon limit" is the speed of traffic. I must have missed the meeting where we all got together and discussed what the speed limit ought to be. The speed limit is often arbitrary a

Speeding IMHO is almost never the issue, it’s careless or reckless driving, failure to obey traffic laws, and distracted driving. The idea of taking a single arbitrary driving test as a teen and never again is insane.

Yeah, no. At least, not to test the technical proficiency of a potential team member. Instead, have a conversation about how to solve a well defined problem. Use the whiteboard to record potential solutions in high level terms, or if the ca

Yep. As an example, higher level governments will attach stipulations to grants or other types of funding in order to “encourage” lower governments to do as they’d like them to. Our tax system is such that this almost always works.

My opinion is basically that since businesses use machines to target, communicate, and attempt to influence me, they have no right to deny my ability to do the same, unless it harms their service e.g. DDoS.

I’m so sick of these “build x in x minutes/lines of code” - they’re cancerous. These contribute to the myth that one can become a good software developer by taking a few coding classes. You need hands on experience over some length of

They should appeal, but they'll likely lose. Honestly, it's kind of preposterous that a single judge is making a decision that affects the entire world (given globalization) representing a country of over 300 million! It at least

That’s not the point. What good is the ability to grow enough food for everyone if we arbitrarily withhold it from them? I’d argue patching a system that values the very few over the many is not an advancement.

I think it’s pretty arrogant to conclude that the human race is somehow exempt from the concept of a carrying capacity. Wages are higher because of inflation, the floor has moved, and it’s relatively meaningless as the cost of rent, healthc
