I'd find this question frustrating because it feels like a trap. I was looking for the trick -- was I missing something in the question that made the obvious approach untenable? No, the answer is simple, just add a way to multiply numb

Apple News is kind of garbage, unfortunately. Hidden sources still take up space which (in my case) makes the home screen an ugly mess.

I doubt the product/ad/business team sees any benefit when page content shifts around and Google downranks the site for it.

Ars Technica is on my shitlist because they chose to make their site content shift around as you scroll, to make way for ads or email lists or whatever. I don't know why devs and designers at these companies don't fix this.

I hate that feeling. The real me is kind of an asshole. I let a lot of people see that at a previous job and now I can't be around any of them any more. I've worked hard to be someone else where I'm at now and I've been

Maybe we need to figure out how to give feedback to people giving feedback. And that feedback will need to be structured such that it doesn't just get dismissed immediately.

Oof, only now do I realize I need to record account deletions somewhere independent of my database backups so I don't accidentally restore accounts I shouldn't if something goes horribly wrong. Not sure why I didn't think of

It looks like they weren't just posting quotes. They often added some anti-liberal/anti-gender/etc quip. Lying in the title of an article critical of Twitter is a really bad look.

I haven't gone to an offsite meeting with my coworkers yet (we're 100% remote) so I don't really know what to expect of them. I do know that when I worked in offices there was a lot of bullshit going on every day that only ha

Yeah, that's a risk. They could mitigate it by allowing you to revert all branches/tags back to the pre-private state, but we're getting more and more complicated here.

It's funny they manage to have resource quotas but folks around here claim they couldn't possibly add spend quotas.

I think it means there were 502 duplicate submissions. We're down to only 200 so it should be smooth from here on out.

So the "design limitation" in the chip can be overcome by updating apps to support Apple's TBDR tile memory system that was presumably created to maximize processor performance? Am I understanding the design limitation correc

There's a weird culture around reporting problems without reporting names. You see it a lot here on HN and occasionally in media. I'll never understand. Why bother talking about corporate misbehavior (or etc) and not back it up wi

JIRA is generally fine software that is good enough for most folks, especially if you're willing to adapt your workflow to it. Where it goes wrong is where tools like Jenkins go wrong: folks add too much customization. That means the t

FWIW "Little Free Library" is a trademark and its owners have been aggressive in its defense. I don't know what folks should use as a generic name.

Tongue in cheek: at what point is it cheaper to send three sizes (exact and +1/-1)?

They'd have to be built with cow-catcher like devices to push all the horseshit out of their way while traveling down the road. It'd be a different kind of awful.

Terraform is roughly the equivalent to a Makefile. If anything it reduces complexity by encouraging operations to be run in a reproducible and testable fashion. Is it a layer? Sure, but little more than a shell script is a layer.

I usually read the comments first and then read the article second, but I almost always read the article before writing my own comment.

I usually don't even read the comments on those posts. I think I need to start making better use of the hide button.

What is the problem they are a part of, and what makes them part of that problem? They don't seem problematic to me.

The main reason I haven't tried this yet is I am concerned what would happen if every result is one of these spam sites that has fooled Google engineers for so long. Do I get a suspiciously blank page? The other reason is I started usi
