I use the regular app and website as a casual user and am only aware of Topics. My experience with Topics was really bad, I followed the "web development" topic and it just surfaces tweets of people who took a coding bootcamp and

I often wonder if we could start a movement of young people to start afresh elsewhere. We are the workers and the lifeblood of the cities we can't afford. Could we pick a city and move in on it?

It does strike me as unfair that GitHub themselves made the exact same mistake but were able to fix it with database backups.

Where exactly do you mean by "the other side of the pond"? I moved to Vancouver from the UK last year and it is significantly nicer/more liveable than most UK cities I've seen.

I can remember people brazenly advertising console "chipping" in my local newspaper in the UK. I don't know why it stopped when we went from PS1 to PS2 (or Xbox).

It's the title attribute on an image element that generates the tooltip. Did alt do that previously or was it always title? MDN says not to put the same text in title and alt, as some screenreaders will read both. https://de

I think Google and recently DDG think they’re doing me a favour by ignoring my quote marks. They’re not! If they think they only have poor results with quote marks then show me them and tell me that. If they don’t have any results with my q

The problem with that is it redirects you to the Reddit search page, which isn't great. It's much better for me to use "site:reddit.com [query]" on DDG than to use the !r.

I wouldn’t feel any guilt about pirating the content I bought on any of those services if my account was taken from me for inactivity. I’d be interested to hear the argument about why that would be wrong though.

Some of us were never lucky enough to spend any time on the bench! Although a number of people in my "start group" were on the bench for months. It was a really bizarre scenario. My project could be drowning in the amount of work

I was at Argos between 2012 and 2013. Fresh out of university. At one point during my time there, for around five or six weeks, me and another graduate were the only front end developers on the entire Argos website. At that stage I don&#x27
