My autoimmune disease is likely caused by modern technical advances and is almost nonexistent in countries that haven't modernized. There's very limited research done on on fixing it and lots done on treating the symptoms. Each c

The first world countries still try to fight “civilized” wars - which can never be won. If the US (or Russia in Ukraine) truly wanted to win they could take off they gloves, so to speak. We’d likely see this if a first world home country wa

Accessibility and JS are not mutually exclusive. It's just much easier to do accessibility without JS.

It’s extreme developer specific tunnel vision to think removing JS would be good. Your comment is pretty ironic because that same sentiment (“this is how I see the world”) is what makes the web so inaccessible for disabled people.

There’s no way 6-12 months just to get up to speed in go. If you’ve been working in a relatively similar domain (ie webdev) and have access to teammates with experience in go (to review code and expedite your learning) it shouldn’t take mor

Code reviews prevent this as well, without all the overhead incurred by pair programming. I think pair programming has its uses, but unless the 2 working together are on the same level it's really hard to get into "flow".

The truth should be prioritized. That's a very simple statement with a ton of complexities behind it and no good solution, I think.

I think that’s the point. He’s not very principled. He’d be the first modern hero we’ve had if he came back and forced the government to imprison him.

I had the exact same experience. I've gone 6-8 months of taking roughly 200mg - 300mg a day with no major issues. When I've taken breaks (up to 6 months at a time) I didn't notice any real gain. The one lasting thing I'v
