Yeah the disabling of paste into the password field is super annoying. My work around is to open the developer console and paste into a js one liner that sets the value of said form field. For me it’s slightly better than the tedious manual

I think your humor detection algorithm needs some enhancement.

Perhaps consider having even a mild understanding of how tax incentives work before spouting nonsense righteous indignation?

I know the Key Foods you are talking about - I used to live nearby it roughly 10 years ago. I can’t believe that it’s still really the only choice. Something is holding back LIC’s development to where it doesn’t seem to be keeping pace wit

I consider myself lucky to have begun my career in earnest at a time just before ORMs became the norm in web development. I wouldn’t say I am an expert, but wow has the sql experience developed early on paid dividends over and over througho

For longer running larger features I would use interactive rebasing to selectively squash the larger feature into several more bite sized commits that declare intent and then merge that

Feature branch, review, squash, merge - only way to roll imho.

That was so thoroughly and charmingly English, but what an amazing feat of engineering for the time it was built!

Did you mean constrict? So you feel that an entire generation of humans conspired against the well being of yours deliberately... just because? I think you might want to consider developing a more nuanced and less reductive view of things.

All these concepts are extremely useful in practice. I do not see them in any way as “needlessly” complex. Difficult to learn... maybe, but not just for the hell of it.

Right??! What kind of upside down world of entitlement are we sliding into? With google on your resume just go work somewhere else that fits your ideology better if you aren’t happy with the present’s behavior.

There was no notion of a virtual dom in the ie6 era that I can remember. Unless Prototype (the precursor to jquery) used one and I just wasn’t aware of it. I believe the libraries of that time either directly extended the dom or wrapped ind

In Singapore, at least while I was living there, Grab taxi was used to hail actual taxis. Think traditional taxi company, but happens to have a mobile app that (mostly) works well. I guess now that they bought up Uber’s operations it’s a mi

I do not agree that it "has completely different semantics". It has far more in common than not. Its close enough that I, as a long time Ruby developer, had no issues being productive with it in a very short amount of time. The sy

At what point is a workforce sufficiently diverse? Is it just a matter of “too many white males in this room - remove some of them, replace with politically acceptable demographics”? Feels like even in a diverse workplace there are always g

Tons of the chefs who work at or own those Michelin starred restaurants would agree with you - they almost universally love to eat low tier, mass market fast food

May I enquire about this marinade? :-)

Oh interesting... I have tried both and had the opposite experience. A steak Sous-vide to rare and then finished on an ultra hot cast iron skillet with oil, butter, fresh herbs comes out better and more consistent than the reverse sear. How
