I wouldn't be surprised if us zoomers were more wary of incurring debt on credit cards because they seem more complex, predatory, or expensive than some BNPL with a user-friendly app. But just using them and paying them off, that&#x2

There are also well-off people who don't watch their bills super closely and accidentally pay fees. Autopay is disabled by default, and default autopay mode is often "min due," which results in interest owed. Or they charge r

Yeah, that worked, thanks! I didn't think to try that, probably because I don't typically go towards absolute positioning (I'm sorta n00b), but it makes sense now.

Well HTML/CSS needs to do a better job luring then. The React way makes a lot more intuitive sense. Then again my friend somehow got lured into installing Bootstrap.js, some React router, and frikin Redux to "solve" this befo

Either ChatGPT has gotten better or I gave it a better prompt this time. It suggested this padding-bottom hack that sorta works but requires hardcoding aspect ratios, which I didn't want, but at least it demonstrates the layout we want

That results in empty bars on the sides or top/bottom, which we didn't want. We wanted the div to resize to match the aspect ratio of the image. Realized my above comment wasn't clear about this, so I edited it.

I'll make one when I get home. IIRC: You'd scroll down vertically on the site, through divs with different backgrounds. The initial HTML/CSS approach was nothing special, just adjacent divs with background-image with backgrou

Last time I wanted to make a simple static webpage, I thought just HTML/CSS would be enough. My friend wanted some background images that don't become stretched or cropped no matter what the window shape is. If there's some w

I've heard of Vue but legitimately thought it was an IDE or something.

It'd mean directing people to a new email address, downloading stuff out of Drive, and maybe not advertising via Google. That doesn't seem like a lot. If your job is YouTube content creation, you'd need a new job, but you als

It's unlikely that two things with the same name in different packages do the same thing. It's also kinda unlikely that you have a collision in the first place. And if the theoretical problem with `import numpy as np` is that you

That and I can choose not to directly do business with a company without having to upend my entire life. Also none of them have armies. Not that I'm a libertarian or something, just gotta remember that the big nations are very clearly

The comment above literally says "only."

Wanting free speech on internet forums is different from wanting it at the government level. I'm not sure what Free Speech Absolutism is, but if it means unmoderated internet forums, yeah that usually doesn't end well even if only

Yeah and there are even worse things that haven't been internationally banned.

It's illegal in a lot of countries.

Yeah, even if there's no sandbox mode, a separate sandbox account will usually do. Sometimes this catches misuse that would've caused rate-limiting in prod. And if a service makes this hard, maybe you shouldn't use it in prod

Could you leave a test Oracle DB running all the time and clear it between tests? I do this with Postgres.

by hot_gril 2y ago
This doesn't mean the solution of testing with a separate Postgres instance is wrong.

Also, don't create any interfaces you wouldn't mock. I've seen too many people waste months creating some kind of "database wrapper."

I think the better advice that goes with the spirit of the article is, prioritize integration testing over unit testing if you're constrained on time.

Those are already short enough, but if someone really wants to rename os to o, I won't mind.

Seems easy to avoid by just not ordering delivery from a restaurant that you've never tried, seen IRL, heard of, or even read good reviews for.

Can also go to the other side of the world and still get Papa John's.

Isn't the only point of the tactic described here to abuse the delivery services' discovery features? More storefronts means more hits.

Does DATEVALUE not solve this?

Yeah, the crown for raw computer power for crunching numbers at scale would probably go to CUDA or, better yet, TPU job executors.
