I embraced airpods early because I had the opposite problem: my corded headphones would get caught by a dog leash and pull my $1000 phone out of my pocket.

I loved staying in love hotels when a hostel was not convenient. A king size bed and all you can watch Starcraft, usually with a PC Cafe next door (breakfast, lunch, dinner).

I wish google would automatically put MDN at the top of search results. As it is I have to scroll through 4 or so other links before getting the MDN result.

My takeaway from talk is basically "go slower". He points out that history can be a good guide. In academic fields you need to get IRB approval for human subjects. A similar system might make sense for models applied to people, fo

Why can't MongoDB can't compete with AWS? Aside from cloud vendor lock-in, and economies of scale that AWS has. Curious if anyone here has experience with hosting using Mongo's enterprise offering. The article makes the point

Taking that 3% and allocating towards your own developers contributing to OSS gives everyone more bang for the buck right? It's a wonderful gesture, I don't want to take away from that. Just wondering how straight up donating comp
