I really dislike that link in the article. People lacking self-confidence may be more prone to introversion, but the reverse is false. Introversion is not mostly caused by lack of self-confidence, and it's not something you should &quo

That's not how you migrate. You disable the foreign keys, load the data, then enable them (which checks everything is ok).

Congratulations on the post. One may agree or disagree with the content, but the text is clear, to the point, and generally very well written. Good writing is, to me, the foundation of a good engineer. I know excellent engineers who are not

I'm also developing in Rust, with a 12th gen i7-1270P. It's an absolute beast; I'd say it's on the range of 2x speedup vs my previous laptop (11th gen i7). I have no idea about power consumption yet (the laptop is a coup

You can have a statistic approach, and that's what the OP is referring to. If you find out about an unknown unknown frequently, they are out there. If you go years without hitting one, they are (probably) absent.

Anything "falsy" -- any item that, when cast to boolean results in false. So, also zeroes, falses and empty strings.

I'd implement two mitigation features ASAP: 1. Disable the ability to unlock the car if the phone has been stationary for a while. No more siphoning authentication from a phone in the night stand. 2a. Setup phone presence inside the ca

Nice side effect: SQLite's SQL is almost entirely compatible with Postgresql. This probably allows one to use Postgresql instead of Mysql.

Synthetic fertilizers do not deplete soil fertility. Some agricultural practices do, with a strong emphasis on mono-culture, but it is wrong to throw everything in the same bag. Growing without synthetic fertilizers appeals to the symbiotic

Student loans should be discharged on personal bankruptcy. All of the other examples you give can be written off like that. Student loans, however, are rarely discharged by judges on those processes.

7th gen keyboard is the best in the X1 Carbon history, 8th gen had reliability problems, and the current generation (9th) is very very good, if you are ok with the reduced key travel. I happen to like it, but it is really a matter of person

Sorry, but no. That is entirely false. I get 10h out of a Lenovo X1C, and Lenovo is not special. Good battery life is not yet a given in every laptop, but easy enough to find with a bit of care when choosing the laptop.

I second that. I only use X1Cs. Had a gen3, gen7 and currently use a gen9. The one I have now (X1C Gen9) is the first one that turns the fans on without any CPU heavy task (compiling, blender, stuff like that). Low RPM, but fanning nonethel

Why can't I tamper with hardware I bought and paid for? It's not theirs to brick, whatever the justification. I hate that the idea that you rent stuff from companies, instead of buying and owning, is now so ingrained that people d

The idea of a public ledger, where any public record can be kept without the need of a central authority certainly has value. The fact that current tech solutions are not efficient, and thus expensive, should not hide that value. Instead of

It's a very risky move. These agreements usually have a generous period for participants to seek funding (six months is typical). If the deal is economically advantageous (11k for a 50k share), and the problem is liquidity, the buying

The company avoided a shareholder fight for shares. This is actually a defense mechanism for the company, not the founders.

It solves the basic problem of stabilizing the shareholder group. No more infighting. Important to your point, this method makes it difficult to stray from the real valuation. If Alice really wants out, she does not value the shares as much

Having a shootout agreement in place I think is the best option: At any moment, a founder may wish to buy someone else's equity, or may wish to sell his own. At that moment, he proposes a transaction value. The counter-party has the ch

Not a native speaker either, so take this with a grain of salt. I read it as acting promptly, staying ahead of the problem, do not postpone remedial action.

Many people maintain those in a text file, somewhere. My approach is slightly different. I keep them in my shell history file itself. First, set your HISTSIZE to 1 trillion. Then, tag the relevant commands in the history file with a comment
