But you’re also using a Google product that markets itself as allowing you to browse “incognito” and its own engineers admit it’s a terrible name because it’s super misleading. Basically, Google is trying to have its cake and eat it too.

I still have no idea how to navigate a Gerrit PR. I sometimes land on one trying to investigate a bug in Chromium or something like that. I’m sure Gerrit’s approach has some benefits, but it definitely fails at showing a simple before and a

It’s pretty damning for Google, the company, which clearly had knowledge they were misrepresenting “incognito mode”. Whether or not it’s damning for the individual engineers is a matter of debate, likely depending on whether or not they wor

I get the appeal of ticketing, I really do. But ultimately, it's a form of control. ICs can't be trusted to figure out what to do on their own, and can't be bothered to talk their team for guidance. And management needs dashb

I remember something a math teacher gave me in middle school as extra work. It was a packet of patterns and it gave you the first few items in the sequence and you needed to write a formula that expresses the value for the nth term. Somethi

Food and energy have very high variance. The Fed uses core CPI, which excludes food and energy, as an important gauge of price changes. The data I quoted was the core CPI data (also from BLS). To use the non-core CPI numbers for the last tw

What you’re saying is true, but not really related to the policy makers decision making process at the moment. If inflation were up 8.5% YoY but MoM was flat for the last three months, the tone of the conversation would be very different. T

I think the OPs point is that the YoY numbers are largely meaningless. I don't think the Fed is trying to cause a period of deflation where we'd go back to the prices we had a year ago. Rather, they're trying to at least get

Looking at this: https://ycharts.com/indicators/us_core_consumer_price_index_... Core CPI July 0.31% Core CPI August 0.57% Core CPI September 0.58% Or 4%, 7%, 7% annualized respectively. That's definitely higher

That just seems so unlikely. There were so many PPP loans (over 10 million forgiven). The government can't possibly go through even a small percentage of the fraudulent loans with enough rigor to build a compelling case of fraud. We&#x

Yes, runtypes is not the only option. But the point is that TypeScript’s type system is powerful enough to implement runtime type checking. I’m not sure what the benefit would be to adding the concept as a first-class citizen in the languag

There is a typescript library called runtypes which offers really great runtime type checking. It’s a vanilla TypeScript library, so it doesn’t require any modifications to your tool chain. It provides library functions for defining types t

Kotlin in is very similar to Java. There are tons of Java devs. And tons of Kotlin devs who program for Android. There has to be an order of magnitude of magnitude (at least) more Kotlin devs than Elixer.
