Why would anyone want to push somebody into homelessness or into permanent reliance on government subsidies because they cannot find work only because they screwed up? Imagine saying something controversial on social media and having that p

Microsoft Terminal is actually pretty good. I was surprised when I configured git bash as my main shell there and when opening it via right-click in Explorer, it correctly translated the path and opened the shell in the correct folder.

> How would investors even ask for that? What do you mean "ask"? They demand because it's their capital that fuels the company. It's not like a VC gives money to a company and then cannot do anything but wait for retu

The time I saved because I don't need to double check if VSCode found all symbols while refactoring a large Angular app is worth multiple times the Jetbrains license...

They haven't had a "point-and-click adventure UI" for years. Pressing left Shift twice has been able to find ever single setting, button, code symbol, tool window, etc. since at least 2020. I initially really disliked the new

I don't know how Amazon employees could refute anything like this with confidence. There is no way of knowing whether a small NDA-gagged analytics team exists inside Amazon that is constantly feeding the C-suit fresh data about competi

Or maybe they know that their plans to connect to the fediverse will leave them with tons of personal data they wouldn't be allowed to collect under GDPR. Although that doesn't matter since the EU is considering any company worldw

.NET Framework is still officially supported and targeting anything higher than 4.7.2 is unnecessary since there are no new APIs in 4.8. 4.8 is just a drop-in replacement for 4.7.2 with things like better high DPI support.

In that post [1] some commenters said that the backlight technology for LCDs is the hot stuff at the moment, apparently. You don't want an OLED PC monitor because it will very quickly suffer from burn-in at the typical locations of tas

I don't want my data in the hands of the NSA as much as you don't want yours in the hands of the BND, FSB, or the People's Liberation Army.

I'll give it 2 months at most until Reddit will claim that their own app is now accessible enough to shut down the other apps.

I've been developing a large Angular application and I got fed up with the flakiness of the Angular plugin in VSC. Sometimes jump to definition works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes error indicators are correct, sometimes they ar

All my career I have worked in 1-4 person offices with enough window space on one or two sides. When the sun comes around, close the blinds a bit. It's possible, just not with open floor plans and cubicles.

In Germany all major power providers have their own charging networks and they all suck and are very expensive. You cannot roll up to a charger and pay, no, you need an app and an account for each charging network. Then there are multiple k

The biggest problem is almost always not the hosting costs but the content moderation. Not many people like removing CP when growing past a certain size.

Mercedes' system will always give the driver a 10 seconds warning before disengaging. Enough to put away your phone and assess the situation.

I really hope it's not Discord... Discord is screaming to be next to go public and throw everything free out and then you will have to do everything all over again. Forums before the mid-2000s were pretty cool.

7 billion USD for 1 GW? No so far off of some modern nuclear power plants. Hinkley Point C is currently estimated at £32.7 billion for 3.26 GW.

That's exactly what my team did at a former company. We generated reports through a legacy document engine because some customers cannot switch/update their report templates and so we moved the logic out of the monolith into a ser

The only thing MS Teams has going for it is that it is included in Office 365 subscriptions. That's it. It's a garbage product that's slowing even the fastest computers down to a crawl. And don't get me started on all th

Why? I'd argue that legislation like GDPR had more positive impact on user privacy than any walled garden managed by any for-profit entity. See Uber using the device ID even against App Store policy for years and not getting immediatel

You need to get the people on LN first, which requires an on-chain transaction. If we assume 10 tx/s (which is very generous) you need over 11 days just to onboard 10,000,000 people. Then if somebody did some funky business with the ch
