It occurs to me that if your users are mindlessly doing repetitive things, no amount of "Are you sure?" or other hoop jumping is guaranteed to snap them out of it. Humans are pattern recognition machines. GitHub may be better off

Here's a comparison of CPI based on how it is calculated now with how it was calculated in the 1990s and 1980s. [0] There's a pretty clear trend here. Maybe the current calculation is more accurate. But I doubt it. Looks like supp

Here's a website that compares CPI today with the way it was calculated in the 1990s and 1980s. Suffice to say, it appears the government is trying to suppress CPI over time. [0] [0]: http://www.shadowstats.com/alternat

I consider myself pretty firmly in favor of LGBT+ rights. But at the same time, I can see why parents wouldn't want sexual education as a part of a curriculum for 5 to 8 year olds. Sex ed certainly wasn't being taught in elementar

As long as the starting point is what an opinionated formatter spits out, then we can talk about the hardest thing in software engineering (naming things). But lets be real, most "code style" conversations are of the formatting va

I'll take a consistent less than ideal layout over whatever $HUMAN comes up with. But to me an inconsistent layout is the less than ideal one. And humans excel at inconsistency.

Code style is the first thing I eliminate from a review process. I find the most commonly used code formatter and linter for $LANG (the more opinionated the better) and plug it into pre-commits and CI. Code style is just not worth my time

I've approached IDEs similarly. But in addition to this, a lot of IDEs lack real accessibility functionality. Jetbrains has accessibility features [0], but it is clear no one at Jetbrains actually uses them. This isn't unique to J

I was curious what this would cost with Cloudflare Video [0]. They charge $1 per 1,000 minutes streamed and $5 per 1,000 minutes stored. 117 videos * 150 average views * 90 average minutes / 1000 = $1,579/month for streaming (!)

China produces cheap manufactured goods. But the U.S. is the world's largest producer of cheap agricultural goods. In fact, China's largest sources of meat source much of their feed from the U.S. The U.S. also pretty much only pr

Inversely, China is highly reliant on the U.S. for agriculture, Brazil and Australia for meat, etc. China has 1/5th the arable land that the U.S. does, with five times the population. You can't eat silicon chips.
