It’s really weird if you think about it. The ratio of people that do work related activities in their free time seems rather high for programmers. On the other hand, we are plagued with opportunists that want a high paying job and don’t kno

This behavior can also have bad consequences for people in unexpected ways. Want to land a job? Create a highly used npm package and put it in your portfolio. It doesn’t matter if it’s supported long after, has a ton of dependencies or is e

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the point of writing cache coherent code the fact that memory I/O is the bottleneck these days?

Did you understand what I wrote? Nuance is exactly what I advocate for. The problem is not people not knowing things, but people thinking they don’t ever need to know more and just rely on the underlying magic.

I agree with the gist of the quote ("you're not a real x unless you do y" is silly). But it lacks nuance. From what I got to see, a lot of programmers never bother what's happening underneath their code. For them, Spring

In the Sgt. Peppers documentary you get to listen to the rough acoustic version of the song and honestly I think it’s already a great song. From what I got to hear even better than the final version.

No, I'm talking about Anywhere MX and Anywhere MX2, I lazily omitted the Anywhere in my comment. Sorry for the confusion, I edited the original comment.

Regarding Logitech Mice, I have the Anywhere MX and the Anywhere MX 2S here. I rarely used the old AMX but still, I got a defective left button switch after about 5 years in which I used it probably less than 500 hours total. Changing the s

Overly verbose in the context of debugging. Logs almost can't be too verbose, because as you said, they should be able to tell you the sequence of events that lead to the error.

Those are orthogonal to each other and you should use both. But in development, a good debugger with data breakpoints, logging and conditional breakpoints is much more focused than an overly verbose log.

My teachers were terrible at explaining that concept. In retrospect they did more damage than good with their explanation. It also doesn't help that vectors are introduced much later in math than mechanics in physics(at least where I l

A year ago or so I was listening to podcasts on YouTube while falling asleep. I didn't mind an occasional ad. Then they ramped up the ads like crap. Easily every 5 minutes or so (the funniest ones were the "Troubles falling asleep

I agree with you. I don't think you can learn anything without messing with it and it's in our best interest to learn and mess with it. On the other hand I most certainly would not want to see the SV mentality applied to a field t

I'm not talking about gendered language. I'm talking about discrimination based on gender. E.g. if someone said to a woman in game: "Wow, you're bad that's why women belong to the kitchen and not the computer"

I play CS GO pretty often. I don’t register the in-game killing as killing at all. It’s more like scoring a point in volleyball or clearing a line in Tetris. The toxic behavior of your teammates however is very real and detrimental to the g

As for VAC, it can’t even detect spinbotters. Given its track record I‘m certain there won’t be any patch whatsoever.

That's a simplistic view. Apple can impose their political views upon you that you didn't agree with when you bought the device (see the current HK Map debacle). Their leadership could change. They can and will ban Apps that are n
