Neighbor does not live in the US but in a country with strict employment law and higher operating costs. I don't know the details of how a McDonalds franchise works, I have only eaten in one twice in >40 years alive, the last time b

My neighbor owns and runs a McDonald's franchise and that man is drowning in debt and working himself to death. I honestly would not recommend it.

Well done on buying an old Land Rover, and welcome to the club. The satisfaction I get from the upkeep and tinkering with mine is at least as great as the satisfaction I get from work. Honestly, if I never had to work there would another La

And when using email addresses to test your software always use [something]@test.com instead of [whatevs]@example.com because the people at test.com love getting your random test data. /sarcasm Don't do this. http://co

The button text should read "unsubscribe" in that case, not "update", and the header text "Subscriptions". It could be a lot clearer.

That was interesting. My reaction was "is this actually a dark pattern, or just designed by a complete idiot?" Because the user trying subscribe and the user trying to UNsubscribe both have a problem in understanding what is goin

That's a matter of opinion that I am sure many Linux/unix users do not share. Even on windows the tree structure is easiest understood in plain text without all the noise. It's literally a diagram of the file system.

I've been telling my SO to "google it" for years. She won't do it unless I ask her to. Then when she does, I do this -> 0_o because, really, why are you typing that? Do you not know how to google? Anyway, all this mis

And certain areas in tech are harder to enter too. Web-dev a decade ago was easy to start, now every site you might be familiar with when starting out uses the RIDICULOUS_OVERKILL.js framework, SASS/LESS because CSS is for amateurs!, O

All this and the comments assume Windows will let you upgrade at all. Google "windows 10 upgrade something happened" and then try to find the fix for that amazing piece of error reporting. In my case it was either that the languag

There are other non-free webframeworks that run COBOL and COBOL-like backends. One I am familiar with is WEbPortal from a company called Zortec in the US. It works very well, very fast and is under active development. Although the backend c

Project managers want to put things in Word documents, they don't want executables, they don't want a demo. The point of wireframing is that the client doesn't look at it and go "this detail is wrong!" Wireframes an

The company that make it is Vietnamese I think. They do some paid software too, and it looks like pencil is what the developer does when he has time. So I think the project is active, but not very active.

Not really, the 2 things are not alike and I don't think QT designer exports to PDF, web and png (one of which is what the project manager needs, not a project file that runs in an IDE). Not bashing QT, but QT designer is not a wirefra

When you think about it, college degrees in IT/CS are the wrong way to go about IT/CS learning. A 3 year apprenticeship like an electrician or plumber does would make a lot more sense. 60% of your time is spent at work, shadowing
