In my experience they help a lot and that's why people (colleagues, family members, the mailman...) are so busy finding new ways to circumvent them.

Exactly. One React is bad enough, why do we need even more versions of it?

In my recollection (but I could have read it wrong the first time) it tied to the OS. It had those problem on Linux, but both Mac and Windows users were capable of running it without much hassle (although they did experience the occasional

As I said before, it was mostly because it used to crash a lot for weird reasons (I think it didn't really like something in my laptop's memory) and the only explanations I ever got were in French. If they finally finished transla

It was about 4 or 5 years ago, when I was in grad school. The main problem I had with it is that it kept crashing or failing for misterious reason and it just printed out some obscure French error message (which I was forced to pass through

I've never hated a piece of software with the same burning passion I reserve for Coq, but I'm happy to see they are still around releasing new way to brutalize the mind of the unprepared.

To get verified you had to post a scan of your driving license or another document, which was then stored in Parler's database. After all that happened (and even before 6/1 it was clear that Parler was being closely watched by a l

I was moved, quite against my will, into the Mac field three years ago, by the company I was working for. It didn't start as my cup of tea, but I eventually got used to it. Hell, I even started enjoying using my MBP. It checked the rig

Most news outlets used to have RSS feeds which, once upon a time before it was removed from a lot of big websites (such as news outlets), allowed lots of people to get a feed of what was published. It worked for a lot of years and, if kept

Exactly. The NYPost (or basically any news outlet and their readers) became dependent on Twitter on their own choice (or on their own laziness), and one of the consequences of being dependent on an external platform for your traffic is that

GDPR doesn't care about storage. Even if you just acquired personal information without processing it, you still had to be GDPR compliant. In fact, the solution suggested above (only using a truncated IP address) would still require yo

It might work, but this is definitely not the life I want to live. There are lots of things I value more than career (family, friends, my dog, my hobbies...) and I'm not going to sacrifice them to land a shiny hip job. In fact, 9-to-5

It's not completely a waste of time. Animal research is extremely expensive in terms of time, man hours and money[1]. Whatever shortcut you can take to detect ineffective treatments before reaching this stage is arguably going to cost

After working on a monorepo and then the split up repos for the same codebase, I cannot fathom why somebody would want to take small repos and merge them in a single repo. The mess and complexity just increase.

The mugs are not cheap. And then you have to pay for storage and shipping. Mugs are a costly business. Oh, and don't forget all the nice paper for the notes.

They keep giving you the mug budget even after training?

This sounds like spy training from Burn Notice. Like, you have to get the source code of this program, from a guy who isn't at home right now and the whole budget of the operation is a just enough to buy a mug from our gift shop. Good

I'd like to see them try. To sell this kind of critical equipment to Italian hospitals you have to guarantee there will be no shortages even (especially) in critical conditions. They failed to uphold their part of the bargain with the
