I typically tell people, "Everything but the fingerprint reader". On my X1C the only tiny battle I had to fight was for S3 suspend. I'm not even going to bother with the fingerprint reader.

One of the biggest issues with Vim emulation in VSCode is that VSCode has no concept of text objects. Because of this, things like "change inner word" or "paste" will always have to delete text character by character and

For some odd reason they've always been mine too (cue "are we now best friends?" reddit meme). It wasn't until a few years ago that I was in a museum and noticed the years didn't line up with the Jurassic period. It

I really, really want to see Crystal succeed. I've been playing with it over the past few weeks. Since it is so Ruby-like, it's the first language I sat down and pretty much immediately knew how to achieve most of my goals. And ha

It doesn't have battle-tested everything and the kitchen sink like Rails. It has plenty of frameworks though. They just happen to be far more like ExpressJS for node, or Sinatra for Ruby. In this day of microservice/thin JSON API-

Even on my FHD laptop and ultra-wide (yet not HiDPI) monitor, windows NEVER stay put. Every time I let the display go to sleep (like heading out to lunch) I come back to find all windows have moved to my large monitor and are full-screened.

In the editor, I do see Shapefile in the dropdown for downloading. It's unavailable however. (Same for WKT and TopoJSON). Are these paid features?

On iOS, you may choose any browser you like... as long as it's Safari.

Go do `var o = { 3: 'abc' }` and then `o[1] = 'def';` Now tell me the output of `o`. (Doing this in your console should suffice). Is that insertion order?

It is deterministic, but it's an odd rule-set. For example: `var o = { 3: 'foo', 1: 'bar', b: 'baz', a: 'quux' }` Will yield: `{1: "bar", 3: "foo", b: "baz", a: &quo

In 2014, Glassdoor was a goldmine and it saved me from several very toxic companies. Once companies began to catch on, it became a cesspool of corporate cheerleaders softballing points to make their reviews sound convincing. Things like, &q

Got feedback, "you didn't really know anything about Ruby on Rails". I was a Rails developer at the time, but no questions were asked about Rails during the interview (asked me nothing but JavaScript). I mentioned that to the

Well.... the math may work more in my favor. But, no, that's not at all what I'm saying. I'm saying, one language is extremely well thought out, and offers great guard-rails for doing OOP very well. And yet, the code is broke

I used to know PHP, and this code is very indicative of the imperative style that was popular during that era. I believe the PHP crowd has mostly gone deeply into OOP. With that said, Facebook mostly worked remarkably well. My bank, on the

The more frustrating problem, is that when I moved across country, I threw out my CD collection. A huge box full. I will always regret not just packing it with everything else. My thinking at the time was, "when am I ever going to put

Even Apple's sorting did weird things though. I have an artist folder and then 3 folders underneath that one with the same album. Sometimes I have multiple artist folders. It's just a big mess. I do have an old 300GB drive with an

This is correct. For quite awhile after I ticked that box, and "lost" everything. (I still had all the files, they were just put together in an awkward way. I could use iTunes to create playlists that mimicked my preferences... bu

My immediate answer to this question is/was, "The Samba team!". Messing around with Samba 3 beta and OpenLDAP back in the day was the reason I bought and read "Sams Teach Yourself TCL/Tk". I really enjoyed how

I had one of those really nice 100GB music libraries that I had been ripping from CDs since 1998. (and Napster/WinMX/Kazaa/Limewire-ing because... I was young, stupid and poor) I had meticulously been fixing ID3 tags, and put

The NVidia Shield runs it beautifully as well. (Same Tegra chip as the Switch).

One of my favorite pieces of trivial knowledge is that MySpace's rewrite to asp.net included mimicking all their old ColdFusion .cfm routes.

I'd say the fact that structs are stack-allocated, and you can slip right through years of development without even knowing that fact... yeah, it's pretty high-level. C# doesn't have `malloc`. .Net apps are managed, so all of

I'm certainly glad that given a bit of time, cooler heads have prevailed. I completely understand the shear frustration one must endure when managing any open source library/framework. There is a huge sense of entitlement among co

I'm ON Catalina right now, and I didn't even know that. (I typically use my Linux laptop for everything... dunno why I decided to use my Macbook Pro today) I had to triple-swipe right just to see if was really gone. Yup. It's

The Copland stuff? Yeah, I remember getting a Mac Addict (or one of the others) that had all the extensions to make 7.6 look like the upcoming Copland stuff. I still am fascinated by System 7. It looks dated now but, it's still pretty

I'd equate Kotlin's data clases to Lombok's @data annotation.

Yep, WordArt... Honestly though, I do think Word captured a really nice standard feature set. And docs does a darn fine job of matching that set one to one. The image placement and handling can be a little wonky at times (at least the last

I remember people scoffing at the internet like there no legitimate use-cases for it. "Yeah, we have places for information, it's called Grolier's Encyclopedia on CD-ROM, and it's cheap!". "I already have yello

Yup, Scala, F#/OCaml and Rust have the best pattern matching implementations I've seen. I'm happy to see other languages slowly coming around. Java has a JEP for it (although nowhere near as nice as Scala's). Even JavaSc

Micronaut and Quarkus are fantastic! Those startup times are exactly what you're looking for if you want to run a cloud function or lambda. I will say, that for a standard microservice, where startup time is not as important, I'd
