This is not a new phenomenon; some thirty years ago I had moved from Europe to America only to be amused by my 12 year old punk friends ("Punk"...aka Green Day) putting on fake British accents.

Heaven forbid a doctor be able to share a link of a 3D visualization for a procedure so patients have a better understanding of the decisions they have to make. That'd be way too convenient!

Generating an app is one thing. Generating an app with a maintainable architecture and ongoing development over 5 to 10 years is another. AI will assist developers but never replace them.

Well that just sounds like StackOverflow with fewer steps.

It sounds like you'd be incredibly useful for the spirit of accessibility, but need to work on your knowledge of the rules of accessibility. When we build accessible applications at our company, we have to comply with every rule of &qu

Interesting article, thanks for that. One of my key takeaways is the iPod represented not one but multiple simultaneous tech revolutions. Consumer storage until then unseen, paired with material and interface design that companies hadn&#x27

Lean into your strengths. You're more likely to invest in meaningful conversation with an individual as an introvert. How would someone taking the time to really talk and listen to you feel? Pretty good right? You'll likely have f

I'm not sure where an AI generated horse with not-quite-right-looking horseman factors into this, but I strongly suspect we'll call him Flood.

For me, it started with a few books. "Ego is the Enemy" by Ryan Holiday established a great baseline mindset to be in. "Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking when the Stakes are High" is the most applicable book. It e

Good grief, that's definitely the bigger WTF. Each of those engineering questions could be its own essay. What's even left to talk about if you answer all of those?

Do something that punishes you for turning it into work. I took up archery for a while (in NYC no less), and found that it required me to switch off before I could do it well.

What's funny is this is how Agile works in a functioning organization. You validate the idea first and quick, and only then iterate with new layers of complexity. Building something the "right" way before ever having seen the

Try "Into the Radius", it's far lower budget but has that same immersive wow factor through smart art choices and clever interactions with physics objects.

Most people only share their success and happiness on social media, which leads to a very warped version of reality which we compare ourselves to. It's intensely unhealthy to try and live up to the standards of a feed, be it Instagram,

I bailed on all social media some five years ago. The most shocking consequence was how interested I became in people when I saw them in person. I had questions about their lives, the careers, family, activities and more. I suddenly didn&#x

Hey I literally just built one of these! Web Inspector is going to be your friend moving forward. Find a major site that's built one, inspect the code, and learn how the pros do it (top tip: not all pros do it right, so find multiple e

You're struggling with visualizing how to start your ideal life. Like any task, it feels monumental because you're at the bottom of a mountain looking up. So start at the top - imagine your perfect day. You identified a wife, job,

Clean a single plate. It's low commitment, low energy, and high reward. Your brain flips from dreading the task to craving more of that sweet serotonin, and suddenly the whole kitchen is sparkling.

This sounds an awful lot like a Google search. The issue, like always, is who gets to decide what is credible? Is it algorithms, and are they public. I suspect long term you'd have OYO experts instead of SEO, and a lot of the same tric

Contributing an ending to Minecraft is a bit like contributing the finished photo of a Lego set; nice, but not really the point of the product.

This is an area where I appreciate Angular and Angular Material. Angular Material provides the "easy to make table", which itself is simply a styled version of the underlying Angular CDK library. CDK provides unstyled building blo

Get really good at excel, and quite a few jobs can be automated out of effort, freeing up your time. Just remember, never tell anyone you're good at excel.

Those were the good old days; Newsweek got utterly destroyed by the internet. When I was there, the only full page buys on the website were for full page scabies medicine takeovers. Yes, those ads were exactly what you're imagining.

Sad to say I'm in a similar boat. My highest rated answer explains how to do a callback. I just happened to be first, and correct. 11 years later it still makes me points.
