Many Windows applications used to do that. Just search for "crash report dialog" images and you'll find many of them. Firefox does it too. And it keeps a log of past crashes on about:crashes where you can decide which ones to

> My experience has been the opposite. Novice developers tend to be proud of how terse and dense their code is, and optimize for minimizing line count. I would agree with that. But then again, it isn't entirely incompatible with the

I'm not sure if it's "become" rare or rarer. But in a way Github, npm, or maybe it was just ourselves in general... but we seem to have promoted the idea of "build it and they will come" to an unrealistic level

It's kind of hard to tell, actually. On the one hand I did need a job and I'm at that age where it's not always easy to find one. On the other, ah, maybe I regret it a little, but not too much. I mean, I'm usually pretty

I walked into a weird job environment not long ago. First couple days were not that bad. Not particularly good, but nothing too bad. Like people weren't too friendly but neither too hostile. There was, though, some casual heated disc

So maybe the right balance then should be acknowledging the correct value of code. Don't focus on code, but also don't neglect it. Don't put it over bottom line value, but also don't ignore it. I have seen inexperience

Some of the (likely) fixes look pretty weird, moving at a ridiculous speed, through land and sea in a straight line, only to reach a certain point and continue as if nothing had happened. e.g. 8 June 2012 05:00 from western Sahara to Englis
