Hit and a miss, but you still managed to be offensive and elitist. People always tout these things as if it invalidates the whole idea. You like to go to the mountains in the weekend? Cool, do so, doesn't mean you need to drive to work

I'd think that proves the opposite: Even though it hurt the Norwegian government's relationship with China, the committee still went ahead with their decision.

I might be in a bubble, but my perception is that the Elm community in Norway is fairly established. Regular meetups, and a really well-organized conference earlier this year.

One I almost fell for, was a tab that changed to a Gmail login screen in the background. When I switched to it, I thought I had gotten logged out and entered my password. Luckily 2fa saved me. Did not use a pwd-manager at the time, that als

Some languages have constructs that make it possible to make pseudo-DSLs in them. For instance function with receivers in Kotlin. That's a nice tradeoff I think.

Yeah, not cheap, but my company let me choose between that and a top of the line macbook, and since my previous macbook was a catastrophy I switched setup entirely. The weight isn't too bad, I have it in my backpack commuting by bike i

Not at my laptop until monday so not sure about all details, but almost that, yes. It's a top specced P1. Xeon but 6 cores I think. 64gb ddr4. 1500mb/s read I think it was on the SSD. Not silent, exactly though, hehe.

In Norway, it's not based on the price, but the product type. So TVs in general are said to last at least 5 years. So if you sell a cheap tv that breaks after 4 years, you have to replace it. This of course means one don't get as

If that's so, couldn't the right instead find some acceptable ways to handle it (without increasing taxes), instead of sweeping it under the rug?

I bought a rubber duck for fun after reading the first passages as a student. Sincr then I've been known as the rubber duck guy and people constantly gift me them. They are all over the office.

Yes, this was 10 years ago. I may even misremember, maybe it was a unsecured single sign on in front or something where the fault actually was.

I have learned and used TDD before, but I don't do TDD. I am, however glad I learned it, as it influences the way I write code now to the better. (Think more before I start writing, for instance, and writing smaller testable units of

While not saying how they did it, shouldn't they be able to prove it? By showing some colliding hashes or so?

I really like how the lines wiggle a bit, makes it seem so much more alive. Is it because the drawing algorithm is unstable, or is it an intentional addition? I love the hacker spirit shown and the detailed writeup of the process. I know of
