There are better ways to write the pattern but the idea is having the elements in one place so if the site changes you can update them quickly, and then in your code accessing them by variable name. It's much cleaner, easier to edit if

People tend to not be aware of software testing patterns but the Page Object Model would help clean this code up a lot, especially around the hard element ids that could change at any time. https://www.selenium.dev/documenta

One issue with Libra was Facebook. FB has the user numbers and money to roll out a potentially successful cryptocurrency that's marketed as a currency. Regulators got scared and it got critiqued/shut down across almost every mar

Yes! But , you do get some bonuses with cryptocurrencies. Access to credit, ability to build an account history, etc. At the very least cryptocurrencies are a superset to M-Pesa etc. Plus some other geo-political perks like not being centr

Does this offer any advantages to Ada/Spark? Having worked in formal method environments there's a lot to be said of a tool that's been around for a while. Even with formal methods you can still have bugs and there's a r

I hope the future definition of ‘hacker’ is not making slightly more performant line-of-business applications. New languages that run over decentralized systems are cool regardless of utility, and I hope can be appreciated as such rather th

At what point does that stop being a logical fallacy? We’re on year 13, is it year 30? 50? If there’s no end date then this can be said about everything and is therefore not a fallacy.

You’re wrong. Every crypto company I’ve worked with has spent significant amounts on security consultants, audits, test nets, and bug bounties.

Potentially it was a mess, but the guys building it contribute to nix so I don’t think that’s to blame. Dev environments are okay, but that’s not the limit of nix - it gets used for build servers, ci servers, linting, replacing stack cabal
