I'm in the south, and not sure I'd want to move back north for 15% more, and... I'm 'stuck' with a cheap mortgage. I don't like cold weather. My wife doesn't mind it. I'd go back for a lot more, bu

If it's easier to access, it might increase the number of vegans overall. I have some vegans in my family, and while I'm not vegan myself, I find myself eating less meat overall, but still eat eggs regularly (directly and indirec

No idea how to actually play. "You can only place tiles touching your dock or your existing tiles". When you first play, there's no other tiles to touch. Trying to place a tile next to 'my' dock... shows that err

Sourceforge was built around projects with people, github was built around people with projects. That's my general take on it. A byproduct was the naming/addressing of projects was built around a person (or company), then the pro

One of my all time favorite games. Truly mind-boggling for a teen in the mid 80s.

Maybe not on the design and original plans? IIRC they're trying to do everything according to original designs, which would not be 'collaboration', just... implementation. It's been over 30 years since I was there thou

Yeah, the built in http client is 'good enough' for most needs I have. I posted another comment about the collection stuff I saw at some companies - tended to be used by testers to validate stuff, keep notes about their testing,

I worked on a couple teams (contract - 3-6 months at a stretch), and teams had postman licenses for everyone - assuming it was some enterprise-type deal. No developers used it. We all had access to it, but none used it (well, none did in t

Wow. That could have been something! Might have been a commercial flop, but it would have exposed a lot of young folks to some useful ideas a decade or two before they otherwise would have been exposed.

A rejection email with the option of requesting a phone or video call seems like the best balance. I can imagine there's a few scenarios where the hiring team can offer constructive feedback, but ... again, it's probably few .

I found out I was let go around 3:15 on a Thursday because the person sitting across from me emailed me something, then told me it just bounced back as 'undeliverable'. 3 minutes later someone showed up with a box and gave me 5 m

Yep - VBA - you're in 'programming' territory for sure at that point.

Used to just mean 'shows up on time' ;) I do think the idea of 'prompt engineering' isn't 'programming' in the low-level sense, but it's close enough for some peoples' needs to qualify, and will
