No, one is an opinion, the other is a label you willingly have to apply to yourself, in which you also associate yourself with several groups across the world of varying moral fabric.

I've worked with juniors who always scope creep their very simple introductory tasks. Something as simple as "add these two fields to the existing API response" suddenly turns into "change the method signature of 90% of

In my experience, one-character variables are serviceable, even preferable, when you're piping data, like Streams in java, or all the equivalent functions in rust. So long as the starting input's type is clear, the "capturing

I have done a couple 36 hour fasts. What broke me was hunger, not low energy. Didn't feel any less energized than usual, really. But resisting the urge to eat after you've been hungry all day and someone puts a meal in front of yo

The entire idea is that vaping replaces the cigarette and most of the harmful substances in the tobacco. Cigarettes don't provide a kick because it's full of the shit that makes your lungs go black. It's the nicotine. And whi

Yes, but those two asshole male birds might be celebrities, attracting tonnes of thirsty female, egg-laying birds to your bush. Didn't think of that, did you?

Here comes an inverse take. I used to believe what you believe... Before I started working. I couldn't imagine getting up before 9 every day and go to work, get home around 5, and repeat that every day. Now that I've actually star

I personally find testing incoming APIs a waste. Sometimes I write tests to verify that I treat the incoming data correctly if I transform it in fancy ways, but other than that, you should trust the API contract. It's almost like writi
