I understand, but to my knowledge there isn't something you can use to make such a thing and not invest time to learn it. Thus my choices are the ones with the least investment needed. If you are to invest some time to learn any tool f

That's why i pretty much ignore every review that doesn't provide solid criticism of the product. I look for 2-4 stars trying to avoid super negative as well as super positive reviews

There a couple of categories of comments on this thread that I think are missleading. 1) Judging the author's decision based on his previous behaviour or current speculation over his situation 2) Judging the author's decision to w

Hey mate. Sorry for the missunderstanding. When I said effort I meant just ensuring we're not dealing with a lazy person who slacks having the safety of a job. By no means do I want people competing by putting in more hours. I have lea

Isn't anyone going to mention the importance of tests for extra documentation? I am interested in hearing your thoughts on that. I have understood how/why code works multiple times by looking at some test cases. Tests may also ref

I am really not sure why my point isn't clear. I am not judging people differently based on age. I observe that skills/performance is not a fair metric for old people to compare against young ones. Thus, in order to create a field

Firstly I am all in for discrimination that results in positive effects for people in need (as long as it is reasonable and not blind benefits for the sake of suposedly helping minorities) However, my solution does not judge people differen

Althought I find a comparison between wordpress and SSGs very interesting, the example given here is very limited and I'd say wrong. You can combine SSGs with a CMS and write your blog posts there. Yes, the initial setup would be more

I am under 30. I find it very frustrating and unfair to see older programmers being displaced or misstreated because 1) I need to squeeze out every damn ounce of wisdom these people have in order to accelerate my own progress and 2) one day

Thanks for this resource, I've been thinking that software engineers tend to falsely look at people as "meat computers" but wasn't aware of that philosophical branch. I can now research this school of thought easier.

You are "proving" we are wrong by "assuming" the existence of a solution. This is a falacy. I would also argue that contextual awareness of a computer will never resemble the contextual awareness of a human being. That i

Computers don't speak any language, they exexute machine code - instructions. From assembly, to C, to python, we never made computers understand any sort of language. We managed to help humans reason about machine code in a manner that

People complaining about how PWAs haven't taken off yet are extremely ignorant. Go open up your dev tools and see how many websites you've visited make use of at least some PWA features (most likely cache) without you even noticin
