This heavily depends on country of residence. While I had been living in Serbia, there was one king - Viber. I've heard of WhatsApp back then but didn't know a single person using it. In Germany it's vice versa - the king is

"See the worst-offending companies by name". Um, how? The only thing you can do is click the "Let's go" or "Get started" button, and they both lead to the same form which starts with "What is the firs

I'm not convinced. Literally none of these 3 bullet points are problems with plain HTML since at least 1993 or so - it's responsive by default, incremental by default and user agents are free to zoom in or out at will by default

This reminds me of one Finnish student publishing some sort of OS kernel in 1991 or so which supported only his PC-compatible machine...

A combination of Mississipi bubble [1] and The Great Depression. Here we have a conversion of debt into suspicious equity and at the same time leveraging to invest (i.e. buying with the money you don't have). Both usually end in bankru

I use both, they work even better together! uMatrix for enabling JavaScript and cookies only on sites I care about, and uBlock Origin for some cosmetic filtering.

It seems unbelievable really. It's literally 5x-20x of what a solid developer can earn in Europe. I mean, the best of the best (and I know maybe 1000 developers so not that small of a sample) I've heard is around $150K, a few over

I am aware that EVs pollute less. But parent comment claimed that pollution doesn't exist at all which is simply false.

If you pay, there is every need for ads - you just showed you have the money and that makes you a worthy target for more advertising/tracking.

by ivanche 6y ago
From their POV it's perfectly reasonable - by paying, you showed you have the money thus you're very worthy target for more ads and tracking!

It seems you're conflating innovation with marketing. It's perfectly legitimate for someone to invent a car. It's not, however, to cold call me or send me car catalogs or show me car ads on the web ad infinitum until I submit

#1 is just moving the goalpost. You jumped from "why new is bad" to "why can't language mock fields". #2 What stops you from creating a complex system without having dependencies, thus avoiding DI? Also, I think it

Compare 2 classes. Class A expects all its dependencies to be passed as constructor parameters. Class B has a default no-arg constructor, but buried inside 5 of its methods calls Dep1 dep1 = new Dep1(); or Dep2 dep2 = new Dep2(); Now, which

Been there, done that. Most popular alternative is new operators sprinkled throughout the codebase at will. Absolute horror!
