I am about the most opposite of a right wing populist as you could be. I was simply calling out your grandstanding and hypocrisy; I don't care what side of the aisle anyone is on, I will call out people being that snide in discourse an

If you are a company trying to integrate the idea of Unit Testing into a company and it is a new concept, I guess this practice could be acceptable. I think context really matters. I've put a lot of thought into this throughout the day

I'm in 100% agreement with you up until the point of tying your test coverage and writing of tests to your employment. In my eyes that promotes a culture of writing bogus tests that provide no value other than to make more green check

The one advantage that I can think of is this can run on websites that are in development and not accessible to something running in the cloud. A lot of enterprise websites have their dev/stage behind a VPN and being able to run this a

I'm super interested in attending, and it's only a few hours away from me, but I have absolutely no knowledge in building blockchain based applications. If I do some preliminary research and get a fundamental grasp of the terminol

I have live streamed some stuff before when coding, and I must say most of the people who come into a channel doing coding are really nice people who ask really insightful question, or offer good solutions. It's like Mob Programming wi

I'm sorry, but what exactly is this subreddit accomplishing? It looks like just a bunch of articles about how the current FCC admin is bad, and fear-mongering photos of phones being completely blacked out and emojis on them. I don&#x27

I fail to see that quote in the entire article. EDIT: Just read your username, you already have a predisposition to Microsoft.

I'm not sure I wholeheartedly agree with that. The YouTube channel "REACT" could be driving some of these numbers. There's a spike in early 2016 that made me think of it - remember the whole 'REACT' Trademark c

I presume that's the same Chad Fowler that wrote The Passionate Programmer? Work has LinkedIn blocked, so I can't confirm easily.

Mike Taulty [0] has been posting ~2 posts per month on creating applications for the HoloLens (he just published his 13th yesterday) - he's a UK Microsoft Developer. There are a few other smaller blogs that occasionally post stuff like

That makes sense. I think that's a hard realm to develop a framework for, because I feel like you can only predict so much for so many people, much like regular programming, and a lot of it would be catered specifically to what your pr

Huh, I was expecting there to be a lot more invested in the technology if a bank already had it. That's actually very neat that you can just use it whenever you want, I'm kind of jealous about that. I'll be doing a summer res

Any chance you could expand on analytics a bit? Also, I've looked through the MVA for the HoloLens and done some messing around in Unity, but are there any good, active blogs about the HoloLens? I know there are a few like Mike Taulty

The price point is what was explained to me by a developer/project lead as the hardest hurdle. It's a hard sell when someone sees it's $3,000 and not available to consumers for at least another year or two. I have a two prong

Organizing groups of people for something as menial as this isn't a hard task. Many subreddits had a pixel template they posted for the content they wanted that made it to those communities front page, and users generated it. Upkeep af

When the stuff was confined to /r/place, I was definitely fine with it. Bus as I said to someone below about /r/2007scape, I go there for OSRS content, not /r/Place content, which is what that subreddit devolve

To clarify: I do not view orientation or sexual identity as politics. In the sense of /r/place and their arrangements: that is politics, or more so rather diplomacy. They have common grounds and worked together, that's all.

I didn't know about the competition against /r/t_d, but the sheer amount of threads on Sunday in /r/2007scape about defending and call to arms is what was beginning to aggravate me. I think there were 5 actual posts

Huh. I obviously don't know much about Anarchist symbolism, as I had no idea what those represented after I was given the coordinates other than the Communist flag and the Black/Red Anarchist flag. I also never really looked at th

Bots definitely did take over, and it's how communities left their images so preserved. A lot of subreddits had scripts they gave out to users to just run in the tab. I think this kind of ruined the joy of logging in after a few hours

I started to think about this a bit while I was replying to pavel_lishin below. Maybe it was more of users caring more about other communities or images more so than they do about political causes. I must agree the scale of some of the work

I think that's an interesting conversation to have. I didn't know there were anarchist flags on there, could you link me to some of them, I'm curious to see. As for the LGBT flags, I don't view those as political but rat

That's actually a really interesting thought. I hadn't even considered that. I don't currently have the time to find all of the analytics about pixel placement, but I would assume there were tens of thousands of users who ali

I think this was a pretty neat experiment. For the first 24 hours everything was chaos, then it settled down in the middle as communities formed, then at the end it was just annoying as every subreddit was trying to take over real-estate, a
