That's true unless you get acquired. At that point, your title is what your new overlords will use to determine your role, salary, and even whether to lay you off.

Definitely. Here's a couple of things that hit me in the face when I use RH: 1) You open the app and the first view is the one-day graph with the bottom lopped off of the y-axis. This encourages day trading and reacting to tiny fluctua

Well, the whole reason to choose bash in the first place is that it just works on every single machine I have access to.. Ruby and js aren't installed everywhere. As for python, I have to be willing deal with versioning hell and the wh

I suspect that testing job candidates for Google-fu would be much more productive that trying to find out whether they remember off the top of their head how some obscure algorithm works.

Meh, people thought it was the end of the world when they broke up AT&T. Now with almost 40 years of hindsight it's clear that breaking it up created tons of extra consumer choice as well as truckloads of shareholder value. It was

Proving those points wasn't the goal of the article. His audience was people who already accept them.

Exactly. If we can't even keep the README up to date, when that's in the same repo as the change, how on earth are we going to be disciplined enough to go update the docs. And the occurrence of the word "disciplined" hin

Information wants to be free. If you post information in a public forum then that information can take on a life of its own. I'm just surprised that people are surprised by that.

It’s precise to the meter but is it really accurate to the meter?

1. They took all the different chips and crammed more of them onto one chip. Now the different parts of the computer can talk to each other faster without any more work. 2. The new chip does lots of little things waaaay faster than the old

I've found your issues with podman to be a theme for Red Hat projects in general. Have you ever tried to configure Keycloak or OpenShift, for example?

I like the daemonless architecture a lot, but until there's a quick and painless way to install it on OSX and Windows developer machines, you're going to see very limited uptake.

I work with a very international team and multiple people have accents too thick to understand. I've found that Teams and Google Meet understand them better than I do. The captioning is a godsend.

That totally breaks my use case for Little Snitch: working tethered. When I tether my laptop it thinks it has free reign with the bandwidth and all of the little background processes can kill my data in a few minutes. With a firewall, I can

It sounds like you and your brother are highly intelligent and maybe didn't really need school to absorb the stuff you needed. I wonder how that approach would work with a more average child.

From the title I was hoping that it was going to do syntax-aware alignment of diffs, but alas no. I've been using kdiff3 even though it hasn't been updated in a very long time because it has one killer feature: manual diff alignme
