Twitter is the worst choice for publishing. This involved so much more text-scrolling and photo-expanding than is necessary. Edit: If anyone would care to explain why they feel that chopping an article up into pieces of arbitrary size makes

Given the right circumstances there could be a lucrative market for used underwear. Not mine, but someone’s. Does the same analogy apply to codebases? Probably.

A lack of emotional control is usually understandable. But it suggests a lack of care and focus that does not befit an important effort. I learned years ago to never send and email or text or to make a call when angry. I always thank myself

The current administration put Verizon’s chief counsel into the position of FCC Chairman. I would not expect Verizon to answer to anyone. Also, it is shame that the person in direct contact with Yahoo over this is sending angry emails in al

I have a code question. On line 24 in this file an object is sealed, but it has a type assigned. What does sealing this object change? Is there a concern that other running code will try to assign or delete properties on this object? https

If you have spent multiple weeks on a Webpack bug then you are not trying to fix it. You could have asked Stack Overflow over and over again in a matter of weeks. There are many options for source maps due to their performance overhead and

I hear this a lot, but everything can be handled with a single tool: Webpack. Even a TS project can compile with Webpack and all of its assets, minification and compression needs can be handled in the same file. While you’re at it you can s

Don’t monetize your users’ data, monetize their use. When you log in with a paid account the ads should be gone. If users don’t need an account to get the content and they still get ads with the paid account, what exactly are you offering i

As an FYI, I have heard from a moderator that enough flags will move a post back a couple hundred places so that it is effectively buried. So aside from upvoting this comment for visibility, flagging the submission may help to prevent furth

This is as good a time as any for a reminder. Never, whether you are guilty or innocent, whether you have relevant information or not, whether you believe you are a suspect or not, whether they say you are under investigation or not, say an

No, that is not what the article is about. One of the researchers he interviewed asked the Guardian to correct its quotation but stood by his prediction of four billion deaths caused by climate change. The article in no way denies that the

There is no explanation of how you use my email address before providing it. If this is a free service then I assume that I am the product. There is no privacy policy. Conventional wisdom would say that only a fool would enter their address

I greatly prefer Mozilla’s solution. Home Assistant seemed to have some critical issues when I used it for my two switches and one light bulb. Even turning them on and off on a schedule was dubious. It would forget a device or two and leave

This is an educational exercise and the article is pure pearl-clutching. Being assigned a point to argue is how schools teach students to argue with research and reason rather than emotion and bias. As an aside, this site has awful responsi

In restaurants the tags usually go straight to the office. In a butcher shop I handled all of the seafood and we kept a little plastic filing box with the tags in a folder by month. I think there is some rule about keeping them 30 days or s

In the US you can ask to see a restaurant’s oyster tags. All restaurants are required to keep these tags and to show them on request. If they don’t have them or won’t produce them, don’t eat the oysters. The tags identify when they were har

This article leaves out some important information. Killing animals was a key component of biological study. There were no cameras so bringing back a specimen was common practice. The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker was such a rare sight that its l

Dichromatism is a disorder. Our brains expect a trichromatic signal and when it only receives dichromatic information the hues are “repeated” because a cone (usually the one responsible for green) is not available. In people with green-weak
