Can you point me towards any sources that show skyrocketing levels of casual violence?

For the same reason you can't invent a new kind of pain killer and tell doctors and patients that it's less addictive than the existing alternatives, when you know for a fact that it is far more addictive.

I was a MacOS user since system 9. Every one of my computers was a Mac and I never used windows for anything except the occasional game. A year ago I had to use Windows for my dev environment at work (a dotnet core shop), and I've sinc

Not being able to move your components without editing your component hierarchy is a code smell. Data should be bound at the level it is consumed. "Prop drilling" is an anti-pattern. Redux is the most common way to solve this prob

There is a scaling factor between mouse and human dosage that I can't remember off the top of my head, but it's not 1:1.

I actually prefer to rent software, since I don't have to pay a huge amount for software that I will only use occasionally (hello Photoshop), and I know the developers will have the resources to improve their products.

Time the difference between an npm install, with all its thousands of tiny files, on NTFS and ext4. It's excruciating.

Try telling that to my boss, who has an autistic child. I held your opinion until I stuffed my foot in my mouth in a meeting. Now I don't use that word.

Unfortunately if you want an uncensorable network you won't be able to censor the nasty stuff either.

What you describe as miserable was my introduction to software development. I never had any technically minded friends or family, and growing up I looked at programming the same way I looked at professional sports; out of my reach and not w

I believe some people have narrowed it down to retina screens set to a non integer scaling.

I worked remotely for a company in SF that had one of these robots. I mostly used it to play games with people by chasing them through the hallway. When I did park it in the corner of the room people would either forget it was there or get

This is something I see all the time when a new developer comes on board with stars in their eyes. The first thing they try to do when they see a glaring inefficiency is fix it. Then they get burned at the stake because the inefficiency the

It's the plan cooked up in the late 90s by a think tank called "Project for a New American Century"[0]. The founders were a bunch of reganites whose names pepper the list of high officials of the two Bush presidencies. They b

That is awesome, and despite using cursor mode for years I never knew that you could make selections too, which I guess illustrates the dichotomy of 3D touch UX. :)

What bothers me is not the price, it's that the only documentation available is an ebook that one of the developers wrote as a side project. The tool is very powerful, but it's a nightmare to use, and it doesn't matter how po

I hope this works out! Using fiddler us such a frustrating experience. The documentation is practically non existent and the ux is atrocious, and as far as I can tell the closest thing to a manual is a paid ebook by the developer (I was so

What is the mechanism by which pure nicotine is harmful, other than a massive overdose (which can easily kill you). As far as I'm aware nicotine itself is no worse than caffeine. If you mean the other chemicals produced by the medium a
