I'm sure there's other like me here, but I don't even click on articles published in Medium anymore because I don't want to deal with their gigantic popup that interferes with me getting to the content. I think we'r

Good point, I hate how multi-part videos aren't automatically queued up. I also don't like getting videos queued that I've already seen.

I wish YouTube kept better tabs on what I've watched and not re-recommend them. I especially wish they wouldn't automatically add to the automatic play list videos I've already seen.

This is something we used to say, but I really feel that since the popularization of the web apps, I'd rather have cross-platform UX working the same or near enough. I know, for instance, that I'm likely the only person on Hacker

Just realized that I also not eating my meat-substitute burgers to not eat meat, but to eat more veggies and cut down on that stuff in my diet. Which is probably why I still eat meat. If only a small amount per week (compared to typical SA

I'd say "yes". I tried an impossible burger. It does a pretty good job of imitating meat in a way that my Morninstar and TJ's quinoa and bean burgers don't. However, I don't think I'd choose the fake &quo

I agree about the "desire" to eat meat-like products with the vegetarian/vegan set. None of my vegetarian/vegan are into the fake meats at all. Most don't even try it once. I think the market for this type of fake

You're not factoring the perception of the multiple shorter lines vs a long line. It's can be the difference between someone glancing who might/might not want popcorn and jumping in line (which ends up taking longer, but they

My Tj's has a single line at the front of the store (likely optimized for those taking public transport and purchasing fewer groceries). But in the back, where the parking lot is, it's a queue per register.

What are some good alternatives these days to MB-pros? I'm likely not going to get another, and don't mind giving up a little in size/weight for ports, simplicity, etc. Any good threads on the web to point me to to save me s

Where do you get $7K? It really seems like Apple could stop over engineering their hardware, add some ports, maybe make it a mm or two thicker, add up to a pound in weight, and still have a 5 pound 15" professional work horse?

I'd say the dynamic vs static should really be about team size/makeup and life expectancy of code base. Basically quickly building up things in a small team that might be around until a mature lifecycle (maybe startup-ish, protot

I typically just read the article notifications when they come in, so I think I get a pretty big mix? And I like their evening in review, or morning review sections when I have time.

I wouldn't recommend any in particular, but let your interests guide you. If your into front-end development, there's probably some bloggers who write about your favorite frameworks; or your favorite language; or if you're in

One problem I have with it, though, is that often all the most popular articles in their site, are the opinion pieces. I'm still a subscriber, but there's a strongly "promoted" bias, IMHO, and it requires reading news fr

It sounds like you're on the right path, combined with a decent personal passion project and some summer internships. Some things I see that give me pause: 1) No project work. Lack of interest in building things on their own, research

Sure, there's outliers. But Not all college grads are capable of operating at that level. Which is why companies have a lot of regimented hiring practices and tests to filter out all those not making the cut. I've been on the coll

What specifically is terrible about slack across the platforms? I actually like it and I like having it run as a separate app so I can quickly hot-tab swap to it. It's also better than all the other legacy Group chat apps it's re

I don't have the same OS's convention problems that others have. I live with three OS's daily, and I actually like the apps like Slack and WhatsApp that span those OS boundaries and just work the same way.

I'm not sure why there's so much Electron hate? Big and bloated, sure-ish? But my 2014 MacBook AIR with 8 GB Ram that I didn't pay much for seems to run several Electron apps just fine? And I don't care. Sure, sometimes

I think the older engineer can do things a lot differently than the younger. Maybe it's that there's so many people with two years dev experience now who are considered Senior level, even though they have little people management
