I've been looking for something like this; I've described it as "Paradox for DOS for sqlite". Simple TUI for CRUD operations with foreign key enforcement. Libreoffice as a toolkit, so it becomes "Paradox for wind

The idea is that you control it. You're presented with the place you stopped following the thread, and you can certainly skip to the new hotness if you like, but if you want the intervening context it's right there. That "ma

The term of art for this process from the MBA side is "Extracting the value from the brand". The editor developed the reputation for good work, which had some value. Now they're cashing in by selling the brand attached to p

Backed by fiat. I mean, the US has got some really sharp and explodey fiat, arguably the most fiat fiat in the world. But we stopped pretending it was backed by anything else in the 70s.

I think the point is that most metrics are "bad metrics" for this purpose, as suggested by Goodheart's law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law Further, I imagine that the obvious "known

You might not be aware Verhoeven never read the book. Have you? I think it's unrealistic to suggest Verhoeven had anything subtle in mind. He had a line he wanted to spout, and he did it. I've always thought about it like the

You start with an outline. You bolt literate programming onto it. Then you tell your code blocks they can send input and output to each other via text in the document. Now you've got an excruciatingly well documented multi-language pi

Is there a context from which Emacs' defaults are bad, other than "Windows did it differently!" ? I'm asking because I learned its defaults before windows had the market prevalence that it does, and it just doesn't

I think it's more about unsubstantiated conclusions, hysterically presented. If the original post had outlined the data points that led them to the (IMO erroneous) impression they reached, then the point could have been rebutted.
