Depends how complex the task is. Sometimes I’m handed tasks so simple but tedious that AI has meant I can breeze through these instead of burning myself out on them. Sure, it doesn’t speed things up much in terms of time, but I’m way less b

Feels like the air is the “consumer” pro iphone and the actual pro really is a proper product aimed at pros, just took them a while to feel out these lanes. The real question is next year if they release the rumoured folding iphone if they’

It’s because the OS needs far less ram than their competitors to function, and RAM uses electricity and costs money so it makes perfect sense to pack less of it - but they also know showing a lower number than their competitors would be int

The first comments on anything apple does are always just angry people taking a swipe. There are legitimate criticisms of apple to be had but you can be assured they’ll be drowned out by the unreasonable ones on any internet forum.

Let’s not pretend the level of ban is equivalent, or the effect it has on people’s lives. More should be done, but there are levels of severity. UK citizens can and do still log on to many services daily that are not accessible in Nepal.

Saying boilerplate shouldn’t exist is like saying we shouldn’t need nails or screws if we just designed furniture to be cut perfectly as one piece from the tree. The response is “I mean, sure, that’d be great, not sure how you’ll actually a

They called it a “Trojan horse” they shouldn’t be distracted from. They were stating that it was more likely to fail, which isn’t true. You can challenge that without challenging the idea that mastodon can still be a cool place, no one said

Not who you were speaking to, but you just tried to trivialise the power of friction in a signup process, which goes _strongly_ against all known research on the topic.

As an aside, if banks in other countries also worked like this because we as a global society regulated them better then people in those countries could enjoy similar rewards.

I believe the duopoly is bad, but the solution to that is market regulation, not crypto.

Public infrastructure is requested and funded by the government, not voluntarily done by companies that happen to base themselves nearby. Sounds more of an issue of government.

Australia too has instant and fee free transfers, so American staples like venmo just simply don’t exist here. People just send money to and from each other’s banks directly instantly and for free. So why would we need another service? Cryp

As a side note, as a developer I’ve never understood why other devs find updating tasks so hard. It’s super easy and makes you look good, and if I’d worked hard and not updated the ticket I can imagine that from my managers perspective it l

This sounds really interesting, I bet it’s tuned to work really well for many engineering problems. I can imagine however that for certain company structures it would be a difficult fit.

How did those senior engineers assign and track work to less senior devs in the team in your case out of curiosity?

The worst managers I’ve ever had didn’t use Jira, because they didn’t use much of anything at all, and everyone was confused about when and where their next task would come from. The answer was usually “they’ll message you at any time with
