Kinda scary how de facto Github has become, that external tooling is discouraged. Github is a bad issue tracker, a bad code review tool, an ok wiki and a bad distribution platform. Still, one has to mostly use the whole package to get contr

Wondering the same. Is gecko just very good or is it no data? A few sentences on top explaining what one is looking at and what it means would be a good idea.

Consultants deal with this constantly. Most in my company change project every few years. New customer, new domain, new technology etc., and we do just fine. I think it's the mindset, is it your expectations you're not meeting and

It's harder when using humans, though. How do you depict a slow person, two enemies etc? With animals, the turtle and the hare you instantly know have a difference in speed. The mouse removing something from the lions paw portraits tw

Tightening it by counting manually, hehe. Was a big deal earlier this week that the keys and stuff for some municipalities were posted online on their web pages. Edit: it was certificates you had to install in the browser to verify that yo

Not aimed at only you, but a trend in posts like these: When it's no particular order and you don't comment on what a book is or why you recommend it, I feel the list becomes kinda useless. And when a post is upvoted much that con

Then I guess me and the downvoters thought you meant hashing the files for encryption :)

You can't unhash, so you could never retrieve the original file again.

Just bringing it up wouldn't be enough, though, it has to be announced to screen readers. Or it would have to have a non-interactive way to work for screen readers. Reason I'm asking is that this is non-trivial, and takes time to

Before, I'd guess around $45k after tax.

I want kids some day, and I know saving 50% at that time might lead to sacrifices I don't want to make. But until then, I would probably have had a professional career anywhere from 7-13 years. Those savings can then accumulate rents f

People like to ask that question, as it gives them an easy out; "those guys probably live boring lifes". I'd say I don't sacrifice much. I spent a month income on vacation this summer, went skiing in the alps this winter

A few years ago I learned about the FIRE-community. Financial Independence, Retire Early. I'm more in the FI part, saving a big portion of my income. By living on roughly half my income, I save up for a "year of not working"

I would have guessed the drop in cereal is from parents learning that it's mostly sugar, and starting to feed their kids other breakfast.

No, that has other implications.

Those things have nothing to do with a PR, other than maybe a PR being a good way to say "this is done, let's automatically verify it". A PR is about showing the rest of the team the changes so more than one person knows ho

Or is USA the outlier? I paid $100 a year here in Norway, e.g. nothing.

We often end up reusing the stories for completely different stuff, as they then have already been approved so we can skip some of the boilerplate, haha.

Where I work now they have attached too much overhead per story. Time tracking, statuses in jira, separate confluence page with stringent rules about the content etc. So we now make huge stories in order to actually get to spend some time i

I did this to my cell provider a few years ago. As a protest around some privacy law. Holy crap they got a lot of data.

I work in a team. The team of 5-10 people sit in the same office. That way we can talk to each other when needed. Some say that's disturbance, I call it collaborating. I'm not a code monkey. I don't sit alone in an office all

Wonder if this also will be full of freebooted/stolen content (as Videoes is today), or actually genuine stuff?

What are typical matches? In Norway there are no matches. The company just have to pay 2-7% of your salary to your fund each year. For tech jobs it's mostly at the top of the range.

How does the pension system in USA work? Do the companies pay you a small salary after you retire? It reads like that. In that case, what about the place you worked until you were 40, are they still on the hook? What if the company closes d
