But why? That’s such a strange rule.

What’s the alternative?

Except for the exceptions. And off by one errors.

Perhaps you’re still learning to enjoy life.

Sorry to say, but it’s no different now than before in terms of skills and keeping up with “deep knowledge” to be successful in the way described above. Sure, things move quicker now… but pace of change was never the challenge for good vs.

Some people enjoy multi tasking. For them, focus = boredom = frustration. That’s me. If you give me 7 hours per day on the same focused task, I’ll burn out just like you described for the opposite. Please stop projecting your ideal work lif

You’re forgetting that in companies with the management properties you say are bad, those properties may cause actual value to be delivered faster, even if it’s at long term cost. That value can accrue, gain interest, and that company can b

Would you mind correcting your first comment please? It’s not a big deal but sometimes people stop reading deeper and they might continue to believe your mistake and misunderstand the history.

I would suggest reading a book called Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance. It might help to align your feelings of addiction with your feelings of “spread” :) Engineering is a wonderful tool but also a form of art. It’s ok to indulge

Thank you for being fair and self reflective enough to admit fault

Except in many dep management systems they purposefully don’t keep only one copy to allow multi versions to run side by side and other benefits like having a deliberate piece by piece upgrade of everything in the dependency tree. Forcing al

I wish this were true. It’s not. Tracking can be seen as “legitimate interest” because the money earned from that is needed to run the service. If we could turn tracking I to a banned way to earn money from free visitors, I think we’d all b

In France where I work an offer letter is binding to hire. After that if you are fired you are entitled to strong compensation if there is no proof you failed at your job. On top of that there is significant unemployment benefits to support

I think waiting can be used effectively for actions that are not common and you want the user to take a little time to consider the choice. I think it’s used badly more often that well, but it sometimes is used well. In games for example, a

Would you mind sharing the software you’re using?

Not sure I understand, are you saying you use or don’t use a vpn? If you don’t, how do you “hide” your ip while torrenting?

Do you think our own brains when they “understand” are also “just” estimating probability well? If so perhaps we’re quite close to discovery of something important.

For your 2nd drawback, I can recommend checking out git subtree. It allows 2 way split and merge of any subtree of a repo. You can easily open source part of your repo in a “fork” and keep it up to date with your mainline as well as incomin

I know it’s just 1 user, but I’d like to validate your hypothesis… I did exactly that with this article, even after reading it.

I live in France. We have no probable cause. Lucky you it takes them that much effort.

completely down for us, including support website, and nobody answering the phone in France

I think being the richest company in the world makes it pretty cleat that there’s no need to increase prices to support no ads. It’s pure greed and you can’t reason with it.

you seem to think that vector vs. bitmap is a design concern. it isn't. designers care about their form and their function. a better tool means an easier path in the design process, it doesn't matter the tool, vector or bitmap.

I like rtings personally. Understandable for mere mortals like me, but clear about their test methods which seem scientific enough.

Majority outsource to the big providers. Way better total cost of ownership, and corp accounts are safe from all the scanning bullshit because they’re paid for accounts. They’re actually the customer not the commodity like on the free versi

I have the exact opposite experience. Living in France for 8 years means basically assuming the usual french mass media rhetoric or the English one.

All because frontend started with “html” + interactive toy “scripting” for fun animation. It’s like they all forgot about Turing completeness. Programming is programming. Love your comment :)

Sharing your work to others to copy isn’t facilitating, it’s committing. Cheating is cheating.

bothers me that it's fine print. why do we all have to resort to dark patterns, even among coders making tools for other coders :(

What about discovery of sites you don’t know about. The whole purpose of he internet is that we’re all connected, but you seem to want only an extended private network.
