curious, do you count unrealized gains as income as well? I also did some passive index fund investments but I only count cash dividends as actual "income".

Well, yeah I agree that makes sense. I misspoke. Only idiots are always happy and this endless treadmill, our ability to see possible improvements in systems that were already perceived as decent, drives the progress.

It feels like author is depressed. It's a bit sad to read. He manages to pull so much negativity out of the things that are generally have a net-positive impact, things that drive the progress, that are progress. Disappointing article.

Doesn't work in FF with "Search for text when you start typing". I expected better implementation. JS hijacks pretty much every event, and cursor is just a styled span, not a real input, which introduces a bunch of usability

Yep. Floppies were not reliable at all, but cheap, disposable, and very convenient (during those times). My point about SSDs was not about SSD vs floppy, but about SSD vs some other modern tech. e.g. super secure proprietary tape storage.

leave politics out please. If I rephrase your comment using "liberal media" it would make the same (if not more) sense.

Thank you. Common sense is rare these days. Did bootcamps ruin everything? All of a sudden there is an influx of people with pushy sales-person/telemarketer type of personality in dev positions who's live goal seems to be to force

It strikes me as odd that people like yourself don't really get developers. The only reason I'm out of the office is to shake off my tunnel vision and to try to solve one of the problems I'm working on by changing the environ

I don't think git can surprise though... git GUIs on the other hand can be a mystery.

Yep. you are right, "but when nothing is staged, staging == HEAD" is exactly what i had in mind

> It's one more command, but I find it helps me visualize exactly what I want to happen are you saying that git pull can produce some unwanted artifacts? (e.g. not do exactly what you want it to do?)

Yep. 100%. At the same time, torrent ecosystem is a lot larger than piracy and movies/TVshows and actively used to share big data among researches and individual "archivists". r/datahoarder lives in torrent ecosystem (th

Rebase isn't really a trick though.. is it? It just a normal workflow and, sometimes, housekeeping in your small "feature" branch.

To be honest, "10 years of experience" in this industry means nothing. I have worked with (and interviewed) A LOT of devs with 10-15 years of experience who can't do a basic fizz-buzz (I'm exaggerating, of course, but re

I'm confused by the comments. Is it fake new because WT is the source, or is it fake news because we have a legitimate source (e.g. University's or professor's statements) that actually confirms that it's fake? I'm

Tipping also supports tipping culture. Tipping should be abolished in favor of decent living wages which can not be done if you will guilt trip people who oppose tipping. Also why tip someone for a job I'm capable of doing myself? I ca

Isn't a bit off? It shows "git diff" as a diff between staging and workspace when it should be between workspace and local repo.

Social engineering is also engineering. Can be very interesting to experiment, reverse-engineer, and develop. I do not believe that devs lack social skills, it’s just an area of engineering that we haven’t touched properly yet. Also when I

article not silly, it’s just a promo ad for googles pixel. Taking this article seriously - that IS silly.

That is a great dissection of my comment but it does not provide any reason to doubt my arguments other than a falsy appeal to an authority (psychoanalysis.. right, the thing that "failed"). I have made some argumentative choices
