My thought exactly. I know a few people who have been using C++ for several years who go "Oh, you can do that?" every now and then. I guess it's a blend of freedom of design and programmers being a little stuck in their ways

This. I get the whole "You are the product" thing when using Google services for free, but it still bugs me that anything I bookmark might/will end up in a profile somewhere.

I learned about the Haiku project in 2009, when I was in college. I was impressed by the community and I'm still a little sad that the hardware we wanted to use for prototyping (a tablet PC) got stuck in customs for a long time, so tha

A few years ago, "my" bank had a really good year and sent non reloadable VISA cards to all of their customers, sharing the profit. I don't remember exactly how much I got at that time, bit it was probably somewhere between 1

This. I'm also Swedish, and I even used to work in cash processing (at Loomis) 10 years ago. Now, after they've changed the way coins and banknotes look - I'm just as clueless as everyone else. Usually you don't need cas

About ten years ago, when I was working at Loomis, we accepted damaged banknotes as long as you had two thirds of the banknote.

I think this is a very good point. But it's also important to remember that not all programmers/tinkerers that are creating blog posts/videos are looking for fame - some of them are just proud of something they built, and tha

The difference here is that you expect Google to collect -a lot- of data about you and your browsing habits. You can also be quite sure that they'll want to keep that data to themselves. When my data ends up at a third party, especiall

I agree. They can send my data wherever they want - as long as they tell me about it so that I can make an informed decision. Now, nightly is nightly - you don't accidentally build and install it on your system. But if this behavior i

A lot of people get confused about JavaScript and DOM performance. Now, of course it's possible to write terribly slow apps in JavaScript, but the same is true for C. When used properly, JavaScript can actually be quite speedy (but don

This book is really good, and I'd say that a couple of weeks after reading K&R - you should read this one (given that you fiddle with C during those weeks).

I'm still waiting for GDPR to become active before I'm deleting my account. While I'm quite certain that Facebook will still keep my data (somehow), they'll have a harder time using it without completely scrubbing any pe

After spending quite a lot of time trying to track down a memory leak in asynchronous JavaScript, opening up a PHP project felt really comfy.

One could run the site's selenium tests every hour or so and then look at the network log (use a proxy while testing). It'd then be easy to catch any request that is not white listed by you. Of course, we all do this. /sarca

Or, they have multiple scripts running in the background which assume there is a `firefox` process. In such a case the smallest (and quickest) change is to rename the binary.

The only difference I get when comparing Firefox Quantum to Chrome stable on Linux (updated Arch) is Test 71, which takes too much time in Firefox and thereby gets a 'warning'.

I wouldn't, or to be more precise - I wouldn't by default. I prefer to enable things like source maps via an environment variable or a special build - when I know that I need to debug something. By always including source maps, I

That's understandable, and to some degree a good decision. But then eslint sometimes help you understand why something is broken, which is especially beneficial to beginners. Whether to include eslint or not may be worthy of discussion

It is possible, but it's not the usual work flow for frontend developers (given the huge number of installs of things like react, angular, etc).

+1 for eslint. When it comes to typescript, however, I believe that it's better to learn pure javascript first. Understanding -why- typescript is useful has a lot of value, and saying that you know typescript without having spent time

While this was a popular plugin for Eclipse - I'm sure there are plugins for other editors, IDEs and browsers which do the same (or worse). Yet, we often try a multitude of plugins without a single thought about any unwanted features b

Bonus points for making this work in Haiku[1]! While I doubt that this has any real value in itself, it's always nice to see that the Haiku project is alive. 1. https://www.haiku-os.org

I believe that this was communicated by the Firefox team more than a year ago, so it shouldn't be news to anyone who have been maintaining their extension(s). For all those people who developed something and then moved on to something
