The Dream Machine Pro also seems very good for this.

> a better balance between work and life need not reduce output So what if it reduces output a little? We have had so much economic growth that we can afford this anyway, I think. Seems like a good use of increased productivity.

Stockholm, Sweden. 10000/10000, $40/mo. But that of course requires rather expensive equipment at home to saturate. They don't guarantee that bandwidth though. But you can reach it sometimes.

The tool prints what it is going to do in a nice format. That is an opportunity for learning.

Stripe is 0.9% of their holdings so they are of limited value of you sell exposure to Stripe specifically.

Agree on this. We delivered new versions to customers once a week, but every new version should not have been noticed by a customer at all. The roll out of feature flags is a separate process.

I have worked in the airline industry with scheduling algorithms. We had a very comprehensive test suite, but reconstructing the algorithms from that would take a decade. That surely only works for toy code bases. No one saves the tests.

The sun has a power output per volume of a compost. Quite literally. We need more :-) Edit: Saw another comment explaining this now. The sun is really very slow. But it has been around for billions of years.

Google would be able to get a ton of revenue without tracking users at all. Selling ads based on search keywords would still work very well

Maybe (a) no test classes inheriting from Test case, (b) asyncio? It's a good question!

Yes, pytest makes navigating automatically from a test to the fixture it uses hard for some IDEs. It is also a bit too magical.

In my experience, you have to set the threshold at 100%. But then it will rarely find anything. It is not essential in CI like pyflakes.

Fortunately, those are also the cheapest ones. For microwaves, my ranking is inversely correlated with price.

The standardization work for modules is done. Now all build tools and code bases need to start supporting it in a good way.

It's the same in Sweden. The laws are very beneficial for cc holders. If you buy something with a cc and the company for snow reason later does not fulfill it's obligations, the bank is liable. If you paid with cash or a debit car

The literal meaning of "grep" is not the only meaning. It also means “find snippet in files.”

Yes, TOML is great for some things but not hierarchical data.

This has not been true for me. I have discovered interesting things in Facebook ads that I would not have discovered and bought otherwise. (They were obscure Kickstarter projects)

[](){}; was already valid C++ syntax. Is []<>(){}; now valid? Feels right to me! Edit: This is a pretty strong new standard overall. Concepts and modules are something C++ needs.

Huh? It is designed specifically for the poor precision of mobile devices. You literally just tap anywhere on the screen. That's it.

I agree with you in general, but in this particular case they knowingly deployed thread-unsafe code in production while increasing the threaded concurrency. That should have broken internal development rules.

Thanks for the clarification. Clearly, I have things to learn about SVGs.

Git blame is helpful here. See e.g. https://github.com/git/git/commit/1b11b64b815db62f93a04242e4...

When developing, the fact that icon fonts follow the size and color of the surrounding text is nice, though. E.g. when tweaking the text color of a button. At least in my limited frontend experience.

This a performance bug in glibc (and others), right? Several developers seem to be hit by this.
