The mere categorization of entertainment as "wasting their time" is a judgement call in and of itself.

I don't see it as a big issue as we just assume PRs with failing builds not to be ready for review and push them back to draft. But whatever works for your team, honestly. In the end what matters is having a CI acting as authority sour

I like the validation scripts being available in a repo so I can run them locally before pushing to CI, but I also often use WIP commits and quick fixups and then rebase before opening the PR, so pre-commit hooks are really annoying to my w

Google wanting things, (ab)using their position as the most popular browser to get an implementation out there before there is a standard, then getting surprised that others don't want it. FLoC all over again.

In Canada inspection contingencies only protect the buyer for major problems, and definitely aren't a "get out of jail free" card... I haven't seen anyone be able to back out after inspection in the last handful of years

Regarding Montreal - a year ago, we barely could find homes matching our needs within our budget within a ~1h, 1h30 radius around Montreal, let alone even get a single offer to stick. 50+ visits, 6-7 offers refused last I counted. We decide

Urgh. Typical reminder never to let engineers name things. Whoever thought using "open source" for something else than "source is open"...

I see the opposite often argued too - that open-source is too wide a term as could also be understood as source available, and that FOSS/FLOSS should be preffered. But you're right, looking at most literature, most people seem to

In all fairness, it wasn't that long ago Apple were still selling iPod Touch with 8GB base storage, having tons of storage is a relatively new thing for most people. But with that specific 10GB metric, I'd assume we're speaki

Your wife not working doesn't change that you're the dad when you're off work and would typically (I hope?) be involved in your children's education as well.

vim is not an IDE. You can make it IDE-like with plugins and integrating third-party tools (e.g. for completion, refactoring, debugging), but it is still not one. You may not care, but come on, it's not that hard to understand.

By that metric I could say the same of literally everything I do in life. Being bored at times is just normal... Meanwhile I go outside with my son, race down the street, or just kick a ball, and watching him laugh isn't boring at all.

It's not a virtual environment tool, though. It's a tool to manage installed runtimes and switch between different versions in a shell. You'd still manage your virtual environments in whatever way your language prescribes.
