Was coming here to say that. Agreed. Carrots need poor soil (and love sand for example).

And the starter packs who make it easy and quick to straight up build a follow base of curated content uniquely. That stuff only makes Twitter less relevant in an instant.

I live in the Netherlands but come from South of France. First thing I did when buying a house was to create a "aromatic garden" in front of my house. Oregano, thyme, lavender, .... No only the smell is amazing in the summer and i

Or if you deliver an API and any of your users / customers want to use anything else than a raw API. IMHO the top value of OpenAPI isn't for you, it's for the people who will use what you make

It hurts me to see such cynisme. Education is key to lower recidive, and a great way to help those who didn't have the chance to be born with the support they needed to grow free of trouble. I'm glad those things move forward. If

Not that I disagree, but IntelliJ has a free version, and they're building up Fleet as an attempt to compete. Future will tell.

I mean, I've seen a lay off once where all the names of the people affected where listed and taped on the door of the department. People came to work checking the list, just like I did 20 years ago to know if I passed my degree. Not s

I'm surprised more people are not talking about the main reason I keep a high end smartphone in my pocket : photo quality. I got rid of social media apps a while ago, and except for Spotify I feel like I could manage without a smartpho

Thanks for your additional comments folks, it's good to hear from other experiences. It still love Tech as much as before, but I also saw the "vibe" change over the past years. I was wondering if it really was a thing, or mo

Been running Meetups for over 12 years. The pre-post pandemic era difference is insane, both on the organizer and on the attendees sides. Used to have ~25% no shows, and no it's the other way around across all my Meetups. People subscr

The second one I picked up from https://www.youtube.com/@askvinh , found it a good idea. The summary thing, honestly it's just because I was frustrated to feel like I had forgotten everything about the books I read a fe

I've done something quite simple that has worked for me this year. I read with a highlighter pen, just highlighting the places I find interesting, and maybe cornering a few pages once in a while. That costs no more energy than just rea

I think one thing that makes it even more challenging is that most of us in Tech become managers after having been great ICs with good communication skills, and the transition is not always managed (pun intended) amazingly, both in terms of

Interesting to see it focused on England. As a kid, I was very used to seeing them in Northern Normandy as well as North of France. Moving to the Netherlands, I also saw them a lot in the fields, much further away from the see. It's on

LANs are still a thing! Knew no one 10 years ago when we moved to the Netherlands. Pretty much all friends come from the local LAN group. Now we still organize them but there's kids running around as well, and we sometimes also go to e

My bad, my comment was maybe written too much from my perspective, and with the Dutchies here in mind. I meant that in terms of convenience. Pretty much half the country uses trains to get to and from work everyday in the Netherlands, with

Having seen the quality degrade in the 12 years I've been living here, I tend to agree that it's not as good as it used to be. Heck, 5 times just this month I had to go back home and pick my bike because the bus had been canceled
