I don't mind hand-writing CSS for a small project, but I feel like once you've got a decent team, it ends up being duplicative and wasting a lot of time. How many times do you really need to style button/link and write out yo

I feel like utility classes and BEM go well together, though. BEM for sort of atoms/molecules (to use the lingo from the linked css-tricks page), and then utility classes to tweak the components, and to make components play nicely toge

Because podcasts up till now have been one of the last remaining media types that are not owned and produced by some gigantic tech corporation, and are instead truly independent media. The fear is that podcasts will go the route of blogging

This is not a common way of speaking anymore, IMO. When I read "all the developers are men", I didn't understand what you meant at all. I thought maybe you were making some kind of ironic joke about sexism. I did get what you

Learn your environment and learn it well (over time). Every single thing that seems like weird arcane magic invented by brilliant wizards is just code or words, and often not a lot of it. Go find that code and read it. Docs are good, but th

Is this true? I would assume most places are hiring with the assumption that office workers will return to the office once we get through this. The company I work for is certainly hiring under this plan. Speaking to my coworkers, most of th

Most of my coworkers who normally work in the office (I am remote, and WFH) seem pretty eager to get back to it. Many people prefer the social environment of the office, and don't really have the space at home in expensive cities to wo

Indeed. Today abstraction is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror, or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or substance. It is the generation by models of a real without or

I'm honestly grateful I've never been under any illusions of having grit. It sounds exhausting to be this laser focused on achievement and maximizing your success.

When I left my last job, I "lived" in Arizona. There was only plan on the Obamacare exchange there, and it was the same price as my employer's plan with much shittier coverage.

Options are awful. Exercising them can trigger AMT, where you get to pay taxes on money you don't have yet (and cannot get) at a time when you probably just spent a lot of your savings to purchase the options.

I don't think this is a foregone conclusion by any means. Many countries have gotten growth rates low enough that even after 2 years, their whole population won't have gotten it. Some countries might opt to infect everyone (as the

From my experience, it's more about culture and expectations than anything. You'll occasionally get a shop that can stand above its city, but eventually it'll regress to the mean. Here in the PNW you can walk into any coffee
