I guess "senior" just means older, but in the usual sense, the more senior you are, the more your job involves coordinating with other people. So I don't see how you could disappear when promoted. But I think in this case it&

Only people who have not used foldables worry about crease. I've used one for 5-6 years, and even with an older generation it has never been an issue. Half the time it's literally bent , so obviously there is a kink. At this poin

Completely agree. Saying this as someone who loves handcrafting code and has been doing it professionally for decades, it looks like a dead end at this point. LLM generated code might not be pretty, but these damn models are already so good

I recently heard, for the first time, what Space Quest sounded like with a Roland board attached. It was mindblowingly amazing. And all most anyone ever experienced was bleep, bloop.

I smell an architecture astronaut getting high on abstractions. Taken far enough, it starts to look like psychedelic ramblings of a manic schizophrenic losing grip on reality. Interestingly, the author actually has a product, something usua

I feel the same way, the odds are part of the story. The UFC has removed them now, I guess as part of the Paramount deal. This actually makes the events less interesting. By the way, the UFC chews through athletes so fast (part of their som

Saying it seems to have become a taboo, probably because of the existential horror of it possibly being true.

They're very high value by weight, very fungible, and there is much less regulation about carrying them across international borders.

I always wondered about this. Who races their cars around like a madman on public roads? Very few I would imagine (and hope), and even fewer take their car to a track. For a Ferrari, possibly a bit more (still probably 99% of the time they

For the health benefits, without some of the downsides, I believe it is preferable to drink coffee when you are not tired. This way you don't get a crash later, because there is no adenosine build-up (the 'tiredness' signalin

As the sibling pointed out, there are already plenty of laws about, for example, handling of personally identifiable data. Somehow there is a lack of awareness, perhaps what is needed is a couple of high-profile convictions (which can'

I know, through personal acquaintance, of at least one boutique accounting firm that is currently vibe-building their own CRM with Lovable. They have no technical staff. I can't begin to comprehend the disasters that are in store.

You're right, thanks for the correction. It's a very Jack Blackesque character, in my defense.

It's a commercial act, the 'punk' costumes carefully chosen for the right signalling, by a couple of middle class kids. What's with this idea that your taste in music must spring from the purest and rawest authenticity,

Back in business school they used to tell the story of how makers of razor blades would put a good blade as the first and the last blade in the pack. I suspect the LLM services of doing something like that.

Nobody ever wanted to wire up RPC endpoints, in the form of Enterprise JavaBeans(tm), using XML files. That is one for the history books of ridiculous technology.

That's what I am doing too, though I did have to drill out some wall to fit it, in some cases. There is another option that I don't think many people are aware of: You can put a battery powered relay downstream of the (dumb) switc

Yeah, I don't think it bears out that DOM operation invocations constitute a major bottleneck for a lot of web applications. Certainly the execution of those operations (like layout invalidation and calculation) can be expensive, but t
