Why is that a bad thing? I don't know for the US, but in other countries you have mandatory tests (hepatitis, gonorrhea, many others) to do every 3 months in order to get the treatment. This alone makes you more protected than people w

I'm glad someone points to this. Quite often, criticism of "lean" is about stating that with a MVP you cannot make a car (with illustrations of skateboards and bicycles…) But really, I can't see a better example for Lean

You can market your product in a more honest way, i.e. adding a checkbox for promotion emails. In some countries this is actually the law.

I was thinking the same before actually using rust. Turns out it surprisingly awesome given how rust treats statements and expressions. it just makes obvious that "result of something" and "control flow back to caller" a

TIL Make is not used widely anymore. I may live in a bubble, but my last use of it was… maybe 2 hours ago (to build someone else's project) and yesterday (to build one of my own projects).

Sadly a lot of people have a hard time understanding nuance and middle-grounds. In programming or in anything else. If your code is to be thrown away in one week, why make it perfect? If you have to maintain it for years, why make it a pile

There's a distinction to be made between the intrinsic properties of flat design, and how designers interpret it. I think the vast majority of apps/websites using "flat design" are an insult to what it is really about. R

Quite often in Rust, the way to make it easier is to go one step back: instead of thinking about how to make a tree right, you might want to think about why you want a tree in the first place. Sometimes it's the right thing to do, some

Thanks for the clarification, I kinda agree. Then, 24/192 is mostly a "weak signal" to help you estimate if the audio was treated with care.
