There is an easy answer. Give employees two computers. One is the 'business' one. Mostly locked down, with checks in place. The other is on a different network, isolated from all business functions, and they can do what they want

It gets difficult in the teenage years, as not having a phone (or access to) effectively isolates them from their peer group and they become outcast. Whilst this may be good to avoid brain-rot, it eliminates much of their social needs in ma

> The day we stop valuing human contribution is the day alignment has failed. Unfortunately, that's many businesses already, even before AI. It's all just one big factory line. Always has been (to those at the top).

Python problems exist on all platforms. It's just that most people using Python have figured out their 'happy path' workarounds in the past and keep using them. Python is awesome in many ways, one of my favourite languages, b

The 'Industry Standard' option in keymaps, made a huge difference to many. The UX is still quite different to all the others, but absolutely approachable now, and not the complete brainFun that ZBrush is, for example. It is crazy

Because 'dogfooding' has worked so well for other products... If you don't get feedback from the people actually playing your game (or using your product), you will never get the improvement you need to help them. You can hav

I bet they still expect their employees to write 'aspirational goals' each review, just as every tech company seems to do now.

Have you not seen Trump, the 'leader' of the 'Free World', also inaugurated on MLK day... He is the best example of how someone exists in 2025 with such ignorant views, and those who voted for him share that.

Except for the fact that people with ASD / Neurodiversity are often more likely to be passed over during interview and selection processes as they don't fit the social norms that hiring manager also expect. So even if they are mor

If Bitwig would add user-modules to the Grid, along with a scripting language, it would be perfect. Where they both fall down is in less capability for the piano roll and midi for more complex compositions and styles (orchestration) and alt

I think the purpose of the tool is to detect the unexpected number of additional queries, not what is returned.

Although it's currently Linux-only, it seems this would be useful on Mac/Windows, as they already jury-rig containers within a VM and this would override that by default. Unless I'm missing something (quite likely) ?

Linux gamers with modern TVs wanting VRR. Maybe that's still a tiny amount, but it's likely the most common 'need'.

I'm often surprised C# hasn't gained more traction in this regard, but I guess that (despite .NET Core being open) it's a 'Microsoft' problem.

It would help if Jetbrains pushed a lot more focus on the Desktop environment rather than mobile.

I'd say it's more likely for any company relying on venture capital or other external investment or shareholders. If the company is not privately owned without investors, it doesn't really have control over the actions.

I'm presuming they meant 'made redundant' rather than 'fired'. The former is still fairly easy, and just has some process involved, the latter much harder unless gross misconduct can be demonstrated. It's absol

The C-suite is not powerless in how it's done though - how they communicate, support and respect (or not) those being let go.

I think it was in 1994 that I posted to usenet (lost in time), offering 'render time' on my 286 for POV-Ray. They were such amazing times, yet compared to today seem so innocent. POV-Ray was my main hobby at the time, along with t

There is a difference between support towards a better life, which is what you are describing, than 'breaking their spirit' which is often what schools and very commonly what employers do. It's not about always getting your w
