The Pixel 5 was just right IMO. I upgraded to a Pixel 6 after the fingerprint sensor had problems. The first thing I noticed was it was too big. I liked the size of the five much better.

pip-compile facilitates this kind of setup and will generate the frozen/lock version for you.

Come on..it's very, very far from a debacle. It has strengths and weaknesses, sure. But a debacle? pip, pip-tools (to generate a lock file), and virtualenv are all I've needed for years now. I just started using pyenv to install

Use pip-compile[1] to generate a lock file and pip to install it. Update said lock file periodically to pull in package updates. Simple and effective in my experience. How is this falling short? Why such a push for different tooling? Why

I'll be sticking with Ubuntu b/c A) it's relatively stable B) it ships w/ ZFS by default and C) it's so popular that software creators often put it at the top of the priority list for Linux OS support. I understand

This filtering ability took call and text spam from aggravating to almost nonexistent. I think I will buy Pixels just because of it. I especially like the feature to "screen" a call that looks like spam, the small number that get

I think your definition of "meaningful" might need to be revisited. It seems it was forged from the perspective of a younger self whose understanding of what was likely or even possible was ungrounded. You've now adjusted so

Your comments are needlessly contemptuous? :) But, seriously, it's intentional in the sense that if someone is a fantastic developer, but can't appreciate why a process like this is valuable to them and us, then it's a good

In the past, we hired devs who could code well when given well defined problems, like you'd get in an interview process. But they struggled with the actual development work after we hired them. We put some effort into figuring out th

As a developer, I understand this perspective. But, from an employer's perspective, resumes tell you very little about a candidate and are essentially worthless. The sole usable metric we get from them is years of relevant experience.

I find it ironic that you criticise feature request feedback for big report requests and then your Tesla example "bug report" is arguably an enhancement request, not a bug. Maybe the real lesson here is that the line between bug a
