Great picture post. I've been curious about Pop for a while and I've had similar frustrations to what you mention. I also appreciate the mention that it works better outside a VM, I'll skip that.

This looks cool. You can monetize other people's OSS projects too, depending on the specifics of the license. Could be an interesting approach if you find the right niche.

Go's fast compile times, fast start, and growing packaging are what puts it past 'good enough' to be great. It's also quick to learn, which makes it a decent option for team projects where some folks need to ramp up on a

Well worth reading for anyone making decisions about information to collect from your users. I wonder how many systems that collect sex/gender info actually need it. I'm failing to think of a reason my driver's license needs

I've been tempted to switch off Android to one of the alternatives listed, but it's a big investment to try one out on my primary device. Downtime for install and troubleshooting could mean a missed call, which is also worrying. I

That's a hard question because it involves the laws of several different countries. There probably isn't a single answer. Part of it likely relates to indirection. Hosting illegal content, vs linking to illegal content, vs redirec

Having also used both, terraform is a significant improvement over CloudFormation. As a DevOps engineer working on AWS, I push very hard against CloudFormation. Both languages suffer when you try to do some advanced things, but CloudFormati

I'd focus on the human element of work more. Younger engineers sometimes want to excel as individual contributors, but the value of being a team player, helping your co-workers in their careers, and tracking your team's health is

This is similar to hashcash proof of work concepts that inspired Bitcoin. Use proof of work to make not traffic expensive, to create a financial disincentive for running the bot. I'm curious to see if Tor users get impacted by this. h
