I'm not an expert, but my understanding is that with Web Assembly you essentially have to ship the whole language if you're doing dynamic languages, so it greatly inflates the size of the package the user has to download. The one

I believe it to actually be a result of industrialization, and I think that the old "model" could actually be more healthy for children (barring advances in society, medicine, etc). Industrialization centralized jobs to factories,

Maybe I'm missing your point, but Google Chrome is available on Linux and is available on pretty much any distro I've tried (and has been for many years).

Interesting. What I meant by "old waterfall companies" is that there's a few businesses in town that write enterprise software, oracle, etc, for fortune 500s. Those tend to not be kind to their developers, and have been aroun

It depends a lot on the company. I've been fortunate enough to avoid companies like the one posted, but there really are two (maybe three) views of developers: 1.) Treat them as engineers who are capable, able to communicate problems o

They're not for the benefit of people who use them. They're supposedly cheaper than paper towels for the owner, and there may be some environmental benefit. I haven't seen research into either claim though.

This article was great and I resonated with it. I grew up in Texas, lived in New Jersey commuting into Manhattan for about ten years, then moved back. Anecdotally the differences do seem to be regional. I have friends on both sides of &quot

That's sometimes the case. One of my friends who owned a share in a construction/hvac business (he had the master plumber's license) cashed out and got a degree in counseling. He's now a full-time counselor and enjoys he

Maybe jobs that require college degrees pay higher on average, but it's just not true that for a high paying job you need a college degree. I was making over 100k before I finished my bachelor's doing computer programming. I'

This may not apply as much to written language, but there are benefits at times to pretending to be more ignorant or dumb than you actually are. My father was actually a master at this. He was brilliant in his own ways (not the academic sen

Oh wow, this looks great. Thanks! Seems to fit my workflow pretty perfectly.

More like 40. I usually try to run < 10, but sometimes it gets out of hand...I tend to have multiple "tasks" of research going on at the same time. Like if I start researching at home at night I'll sometimes leave it open

I just switched to Firefox today after a few years hiatus, and I agree that it is hugely improved, and rendering speed is at least on part with Chrome if not faster. They've done a great job with it, and the dev tools seem greatly impr

Fair, and kids have made it very difficult to play games. As have other hobbies, reading sometimes takes priority, etc. So maybe I'm similar. I still enjoy a good game every once in a while though and go through phases. I would say tha

Is that because they stopped playing video games or because they were part of a generation where it just wasn't as common? My brain never did that flip (though I don't mind work so much). I kind of expect to see video games start

Except there are a lot of instances where they do waive your rights, at least as much as agreeing to park. TSA and searches come to mind. Though the language of the second amendment is debatable, there are a lot of "gun free" zone

I guess that the approach may matter a lot...I worked and paid cash for college (and still am with my graduate degree), so my time has never really been flexible while I'm taking classes. If I had time now to learn and do whatever I wa

I wish mine were more so. It probably does depend a lot on the school.

It probably depends a lot on your high school and teachers. I had a unique high school experience in that I went to public school for two years and private school for two. The private school did a much better job of teaching those nuances,

I was in a similar situation then went back to college and finished up later after I already had the job in software development I was hoping to get from college in the first place. I probably have a very non-typical experience, though I di

I've found the stigma depends a lot on the area of the country. I used to live and work in New York, and there was a huge cultural stigma to not having completed college. There even seemed to be a stigma against people who owned their

Except that's what high school should be. And let's face it, general studies courses that make up that "expansive view" of college really are repeats of high school with slightly more work, at least if you take honors cl

I recently learned Smalltalk (Pharo), and since it's image based it treats classes/functions as more of a collection than trees of files. Of course, there's still structure, but the way you can navigate from function to funct

It does depend on how many users you have and your TTL for the JWT, but if you have a 10 minute time to live, you only need to store the revocations for 10 minutes in redis since otherwise the tokens themselves expire. (Just an example, sub

I'm pretty new, but I've found a few ways. Most useful to modern development is a package called Iceberg, which is a git interface...you can export your classes/code/etc, commit them, and pull them into different images.

I do wonder a lot about the root causes of this. Personally, I'm working on my Master's degree and am reading about 300-400 pages a week, and still enjoy reading novels if I have any spare time or during the summer. I don't h

There are still some court reporters in the US using Gregg shorthand, and are able to record at over 200 words per minute. [1] Modern" shorthand is really largely the same as shorthand as done in the early 20th century though. Gregg an
