I find feedly works really great. I'm on the free tier, my UI is relatively uncluttered, they introduce new things from time to time, but mostly it's the same as when I first started when google reader shutdown. I get this author

he seems to present it as giving the "benefit of the doubt", but that's not correct. What you are doing is trying to make the best version of the argument before critiquing it. This avoids strawman type situations. It does

doesn't seem too likely, a trademark at $1 million, means if you are the current owner, you'd be out of pocket $10k, and if it is worth 1 million, that shouldn't be a problem. The troll would be out $1 million. Having paid $

I was looking at the repos too, not only at the linux module, but the whole "OS". Hoping for some cool scratch stuff.....but....it's just minimal wrappers. As an aside, I think scratch is great, it's definitely not just

so, in the article it says "they’re aiming to remove millions of tons of CO2 per year by 2030 and a billion per year by 2050." So, this is just a step on the path....but, those numbers do seem pretty aspirational at this stage.

I remember having pole position as a cartridge for my Atari 800XL, plug it in, turn it on, and instantly into the game! I played that game a LOT.

I was going to suggest jean J.M Jarre, but hard to get the ambience of Bladerunner as its quite curated. But as an aside, there was these synthesizer compilations in the late 80s / early 90s that introduced to my to a bunch of Synth ar

I agree, it needs to ensure no verbatim code. I also noticed that there is also an option not to use public code. But I actually like the idea of using open source code. In one breath we (software devs) have recommended reading open sou

I built a multi tasking kernel for the 6809, which was an extended version of the 6800 rather than the 68000 series, which is quite a different kind of a CPU. It was fun! Also created a double sided PCB using laser printers and then ironing

working out what it is worth is tricky, I just look at what I'm paying for at the moment, like Jetbrains All product suite costs me $150 yearly.... so Copilot at $100 a year seems insanely out of proportion. In fact all of the SAAS typ

40+ years (30+ professionally) here, and like others have said 4hrs take home is a real turn off. Having done a bunch of hiring myself using a bunch of techniques (some really bad!), what I like to do is get people to code interactively wi

that's not really technical debt, if mono repo makes sense at the moment, and you will change later, it's not technical debt, that's just a choice, there's no debt. While you are using the monorepo, there's nothi

this seems wrong, the examples given aren't examples of technical debt. Starting a monorepo isn't technical debt, changing to something else later isn't technical debt. Technical debt would happen when doing that change yo
