I recently installed an Insider build of Windows so I could use WSL2 to run some docker containers in a Linux environment. The insider build requires that you enable full telemetry which includes sending your visited websites to MS. I need

For me, tech has turned into a crutch when I don't know what to do. I've caught myself in the middle of automatic behavior and it's a bit scary - opening Reddit or HN, closing it because I've already read everything on t

If there's still anything remotely serious that goes on there, they should just wrap it up. It's been a source of urban legends long enough that its best role at this point is to be a tourist destination with some cute attractions

Grew up in NJ. Most of my family came to the US through NYC and it seemed a lot more exciting to me than NJ. That was around 7 years ago and now I'm thinking about moving to Miami or LA. My only requirements are warmth, some tech jobs,

Farm workers are classified as agricultural workers. farm managers / owners are classified separately. There was a whole redacted study because of managers being accidentally lumped in with workers. https://newfoodeconomy.or

I'm not a Silicon Valley CEO, but I like hearing this sort of thing because I don't think my work is going away even if the social impact of the industry is known and controlled. As a kid, I was in love with software because of th

Any of them, unless you have specific goals that may be served best by one language or another. For general purpose, I'd suggest writing a hello world app in every backend language you can think of. See what clicks with you.

I've done this as well. I actually have a pack sitting around somewhere. Quitting never felt possible when I told myself I'd never have a cigarette again. I'm pretty sure I'll have one again, but not today. This is what

Who exactly is in this role of deciding how loud and powerful people can be? At what point does a person get bucketed into the category of "the offended"? Clearly you think his actions were disgusting, yet you speak as if you&#x27

It's food for thought if you work in ad tech. Targeting based on tags/interests can be effective, but understanding the visual content of an ad and how it will be received by the user is a different problem that could result in be

I'm glad it doesn't do anything, but if I saw this in my extensions list, I would think it was malware. That does have an impact. I could have spent hours with my hair on fire trying to figure out how my system was compromised, an

So you take code you don't understand and don't want to understand, and you use it to power someone else's business? Doesn't sound safe or professional to me. You don't need to understand everything about every depe

If you don't understand how it works and how it can be combined with tools like Redux to create a highly debuggable and predictable app, it certainly looks like a bunch of newfangled framework stuff for the sake of nothing.

I think the experiences are getting better. My first SPA projects were with Angular 1.x and for the whole duration that I was using it, I found that I could point out an Angular 1.x based site off of gut feeling / familiarity with cert

There's also no reason to believe that botting is done via API in most cases. I would think it's easier to detect + ban that way. I don't know how it's done in the majority of cases, but I know it's not particularly

It's good that they're disclosing this, but they are not doing anything particularly brave. While it's understandable that they would choose not to put their business at risk, a true act of bravery would be to refuse the requ

I find that Windows developers seem more comfortable with GUI-heaviness in their dev environment, Linux developers seem less comfortable with it, and Mac is in kind of an odd gray zone in between. This seems fitting for the general style of

I think they'll be in trouble if a competitor makes an AR game based on a similarly popular IP that is more smoothed out. I'm not sure feasible that is in the near future, but it could happen. The bugs and lack of features aren&#x

Unless there was a big conspiracy to make sure that this was an all-male panel, I don't see what the big deal is. There's something about diversity movements that I still struggle with. I see a commenter on the linked post saying

I don't really have fragmentation concerns because it's basically Chrome with an Opera-like front end. I did a benchmark comparison and they were roughly equal, with Vivaldi winning some and Chrome winning some. I'm liking it

The command line is more powerful. You can pipe git's output to any other command line tool (like grep). It's easily scriptable. Also, almost all documentation/HOWTOs you read will assume you're using the command line. Y

There's a part of me that likes this style because it's compact, but I've learned to avoid relying on others understanding shorthand. The rule of thumb I go by right now is that if I can make my code read more like English, t

People are people. The obnoxious ones stand out more. This is also a field where poor quality work can put sensitive information at risk or cost others their jobs. If someone is writing production code carelessly, I think it's OK to be
