I don't see this any more accurate than just taking random numbers and displaying the mapped result back to the user.

Excuse my ignorance. What does Firefox have to do with f.lux? I thought f.lux was a separate package that tinted colors on a level lower than the applications themselves?

I would love some examples of big technology companies that have hired someone into upper management that didn't already have some kind of industry or common connection.

>If you can get referred, sure, do that. Why should that be a requirement to build a "real career" with "real progression" though? (And what does that even mean?) It means moving away from being a shit-kicker coder to

Cabal is probably the most unsuited packaging system for production software. It has no useful test integration nor freezing ability. Tried to change profiling? You're in for a bad time. What about deployment. Want git? Nope. You can&#

Agreed, but if you continue to target these places as a worker, your career will never progress.

Any software engineer that wants to build a _real career_ with _real progression_ will already know that changing jobs should be done by connections, not cold-applying for jobs. Sure you need to get your foot in the door, but if you don&#x2

I run 125% and I agree it does look closer to 150% over 125% on Xorg. On wayland, 125 is definitely 125.

Except I'm not assuming it's wrong because it's unpopular. Read the original comment, I clearly stated why it's wrong. My last comment was giving you a possible explanation as to why the witnessed behavior has occurred.

Opening the link: Sorry, that didn’t work. Please try again or come back later. 500 Error. Internal Server Error. Ah, the irony of the boring UI article title and the unhelpful error message I received.

Dell XPS developer edition, or if you want a 15", the non-developer edition. Touch pad is not quite as good, but the rest of the hardware is up to spec. The 4K screen is arguably better than a MBP.

I have programmed in Haskell. I have programmed in assembly. I have programmed in just about every language in-between. Haskell is at best, a sophisticated toy suited to a small subdomain of problems. Have you ever tried to roll Haskell int

It's highlighting that C (and related languages) have been using loops for over fifty years, and that J has been around for 29 years with no marketshare. Therefore, it's safe to assume that A) C is correct, and people use loops fo

This article doesn't actually list any self-claimed "fundamental deficiencies". There's a reason that C (any many other languages) have been using pre and post conditional loops for over fifty years - because it's w

Advice for people using Haskell in "production": Don't. Save not only yourself the disappoint, but every other stakeholder around you. Use something tried and tested.

I'm really starting to wonder about other possible _shady_ things that go on at Facebook, but are swept under the rug or go unreported. Just in case you were not already aware, Facebook is not to be trusted under any circumstances.

Fair point. There are two genders, and you were either born (male or female) or (with a medical condition).

Nope I'm not. But Shopify is large enough to have a first-class engineering team that would (presumably) be writing efficient code, which is nothing special. So if this first-class engineering team is still writing about _fast code in

I would rather gouge my eyes out with a spoon that look at that eye-sore of a "computer". This is 2019, not COMDEX 1988. C'mon people.
