I've seen pay toilets in my country twice. Both times the doors had shit smudged all over the handle and pay slot.

Stack Overflow is an amazing tool to find solutions to problems that worked 5 to 10 years ago, while newer versions of those questions get closed for being duplicates.

I think the real way you can reduce technical debt is by valuing code less, not comments more. Comments are vital, but I prefer everything be refactored to make the code the comments, which only happens if you get naming right, the language

This destroys the very basic idea of opensource. That the first developer on a project can hand off to someone else to take over the project, and have the project continue past their involvement. Now if the first developer deletes their acc

My only experience of Maven was fighting it to get a single jar that included everything, and having it redownload every dependence with every single build. I don't think downloading everything is a better solution.

SD really shat the bed, and a bunch of projects appear to have stuck with 1.5.

I do wish more attention was paid to the ballooning disk space requirements for both. I think Cargo is doing better, but I've yet to get a shared directory working for every build on a system. I shouldn't have to spend 2G per Rust

Yeah, just like the existence of Windows prevented Linux from ever existing. The wrong hands have the money to seek alternatives. All this policy does is keep it out of the hands of the public, and ensure that whatever open alternatives sta

I wonder how well taking multiple scans of the consumer grade quality and using them to denoise a better quality image would work.

A company that can't figure out what do with employees is just as much a warning sign. It's a bad signal that Microsoft can't think of any development worth doing.

I'd suggest at least some amount of small talk updates. Being a person to each other is a good way to develop a good relationship and have sympathy for one another, which can improve working relationships to no end. Doesn't have t

Honestly, I think all these layoffs hurt companies. Hiring is difficult and a slow process. Being unable to think of something profitable for devs to do inside your company is a sign that your management is being ineffective, or that ideas

Nope. The language was named arbitrarily, the sets are named after a French Mathematician.

There is space for divine inspiration as a hypothesis in science. It fulfills the same role as a flat earth hypothesis. It's up to the weirdos to prove their insane leaps, not on us to disprove.

The one where tech companies fire a bunch of people and are about to regret it because hiring is slow and costly. If they can't figure out what to do with their money then obviously they're not being taxed enough.

I'd love that so much. I get paid a noncompete and can go on to work for someone else and how are they going to find out?

by smeagull 4y ago
If you just ignore the non-compete, you can make them do the suing.

That'd require people to read comments, and that's not really a thing we do here anymore.
