Atom and VS Code definitely haven't won for me. I don't use them, and personally I think they mostly suck. The plugin ecosystem seems to be the only benefit. But I actually need to use my system resources for things, so I'd r

Personally I'd be surprised if it doesn't still exist within the next 20 years. I don't think that much has changed in regards to how much political power this industry has. Just because the people are starting to get on boar

This is similar to what you've said, but I'd say the issue is more that it becomes more advantageous to use them if the same people who would normally levy sanctions against you have all disarmed. Currently there's little ris

Of course there is. I was just trying to point out that the views on it, even from the perspective of nihilists, isn’t necessarily that nihilism is a “good thing”.

by jrs95 9y ago
It sort of is, though. Nietzsche in particular didn't actually portray nihilism as a good thing, but just an inevitable stage in human development, which could be either very good or very bad depending on what kind of values system (if

There's a lot of discussion with social media in regards to the impact of mobile devices on children, but I think the easy access to internet porn is arguably just as harmful. There are teen boys with erectile dysfunction because of th

Based on another article I saw, this doesn’t seem to be the case with AMC.[1] Basically, all of MoviePass’ subscribers is still a tiny portion of AMC’s sales, so they’re refusing to share any of their revenue with MoviePass. [1] https:&#x2

Personally I’m kind of torn at this point. I definitely don’t like the potential driver issues that often come with Linux. But in my recent experience, macOS is now less reliable than most Linux installations I’ve had were.

macOS has just been killing me recently. XCode as well. Builds lock up my Mac for almost an hour without resources even being utilized according to top or Activity Monitor. If the software reliability of the Mac hadn’t declined so sharply i

This is definitely true imo. But regardless, the amount of issues I’ve had with macOS especially have been pretty bad recently, and getting worse with each release.

Maybe I’m oversimplifying here, but is it really that complex of an issue in this case? The two of them together faced almost certain death. In most versions of the trolley problem, the potential victim of action isn’t going to die either w

I think teams are basically allowed to use whatever makes sense for them. Although there may have been a problem with React's licensing before they changed it. Same goes for Facebook. I remember they did something within the last year

Smart cards made for a cool plot device in 24 though.

It's kind of amusing to me that a lot of engineering interviews also seem to be focused on doing things that you generally won't and shouldn't be doing for the position. What's the point of seeing if someone knows data

And golang is a relativley "safe" FOTM language in that basically anybody ought to be able to learn enough about it to work with it in a short amount of time. When Scala was a FOTM, it probably did a lot more damage.

That might be true in theory, but in practice most people I know with that title (& most with titles above it) do this sort of thing more often than junior developers.

Well, I’m salaried, so I’m not really being paid for it. The salary is good though, given my lack of college. I’m not the only one doing this sort of thing though and to be honest I’m more upset that we can’t solve this problem for all of u

At the same time, Monero functions basically the same way cash does in this scenario. Most cryptocurrencirs do not, though.

Personally I have too many ops responsibilities. I'm essentially always on call and work anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours a night after I'm done with the 9-5. Usually 1-2 nights a week are 2+ extra hours.

I apologize, I didn’t intend to pull the thread off topic. Clearly I was interpreting the article differently than most people were. I had only responded so strongly because it initially struck me as being ideological content.

That’s just crazy to me. The amount of effort you have to put in to achieve this with Kubernetes is way beyond what you would have to do to write you application in Elixir. If you already have multiple services in another language, it may b

Edge in particular was missing, I don't think that uses "iexplore.exe".

I believe they've patched it already. But if you haven't updated the updater yet, you're probably still vulnerable.

In the case of Transmission I think it may have been used both as IPC and as a remote connection.

Sounds wise to me, where do I sign up? I can take a pay cut for awhile.

I don’t like any of these things either. But if adding them made compilation take as long as Rust or Swift, I’d rather not have them personally.
