WFH, it's a religion for some people. I personally absolutely must have my in-person work, but I understand the desires.

My whiteboard and the sticky notes it holds outperform JIRA all the time - 100% uptime, clear and obvious process flows, haven't needed a service ticket ever.

Same, so many "root@localhost" or "admin@atlassian.com" sign-ups purely because I've seen automated marketing systems get setup and understand how easy it is to flag a flow as "Oh yeah they're about to buy

Modern C++ has many tricks to get memory and thread safety pinned down, but in my experience the new capabilities are entirely subsumed by old code. If Bjarne wants C++ to be a language worth choosing, we need some options to remove all of

That's hilarious, I switched to linux for gaming and use windows because customers need their products written for windows machines! Even things like League through wine play so much more smoothly without input latency when run atop a

Is iTunes completely dead now? I remember when that switched, I had a ton of music but made the early investment to never touch the new Music app because the icon color sucked. I'm guessing internally a project called "Music"

Good design is always hard to find, my personal solution would be a drop-down with the title: "fnurbification" and the options "Enabled" and "Disabled". More systems ought to be built like this, ambiguity is a

This is absolutely me - I write code because I find it fun and it solves my problems, and then I have more fun solving other peoples problems, and omg wow they pay me for it! The vicious cycle won't end until I run out of things to bui

This has been my approach for the last 10 years: I live to make adversisers pay out the nose for my attention, then I don't buy products. I'll fill out surveys, invent names as long as the terms are vague enough to allow it, and d

Programmer Tastes fluctuate around while society recalls older tastes from movies/sitcoms/books; the net result is a passive positive-reinforcement feedback loop from prior art. Psychology has an entire branch studying these sorts

I bought an Elantra in the last year, and it's self-driving capabilities (lane tracking + cruise control) are an order of magnitude more responsive than a friend's Tesla. So my reason is quality, but it means I leave behind giant

I actually began paying for twitter just to be a metric; if twitter throws advertisers out and becomes a paid-only social network I think it will pave the way for a less toxic internet with fewer perverse incentives. I wish you could give t

Damn I was about to get one (have been thinking about PCIe accelerators) a few months ago. It sucks that we now have to predict future company decisions before buying their products, the only good side effect is more people will build inste

Related thought: I've hoped that digital rights licensing would someday be improved similar to today's stock markets. The government authorizes a broker to setup a market and sell signed licenses (JSON snippets signed by the broke

My moral compass has always been to pirate a product, then pay the studios/studio partners once I have a copy. It ensures I'm happy and the original authors get profit, at the detriment of intermediaries. Sometimes you can't

time-series designs are generally better because they hold more information, and you can throw a view on top of them to present a nullable timestamp table if that's what's already been coded against. On the other hand once you go

I used a BlackBerry Q10 until 2020, and I wish the company had stuck to their own OS. There was no such thing as a loading bar, or a spinning wand, everything was just _there_. Communication happened in one place, app windows were in anothe

Headlines like this are grown by comments like this, it ticks KPI boxes that drive journalist pay. Your (our) attention is currently creating new years bonuses financed through ad revenue KPIs.

I'm a huge fan of SublimeText the editor, but not a huge fan of SublimeText the company behind it. The balancing act they did was sell licenses that are good for an entire major version (eg SublimeText 2, 3, etc.) that never expire. I&

Also born in the 90s, I feel like we were the last generation to grow up with technology advanced enough to be useful/educational but not yet so heavily DRM-ed and Ad-optimized as to be effectively manipulative to us as children. This

Agreed, I'd like to see SBF prosecuted as much as anyone else, but I want it to be a legal trial. His statements should be accepted in the most generous possible light, and the case against him should be ironclad enough to hold. (Other

I'm in the same boat, every agency I've donated to has turned into a google-powered ad-shilling-machine within a week. It makes it impossible to trust well-intending organizations.

Read TSiege's correction again, it wasn't a (bad numbers) 1000T planet being impacted by a 10T object, it was a 500T object (earth) being impacted by a 500T object (now also earth) and ejecting a 10T object (now moon) from the deb

I understand the angst, and that's why I don't engage with social platforms. The exception is when friends text me to go look at their posts, during which time I make sure to click every ad I see to increase cost to the organizati

I'd be all in favor of ebooks as a first-class citizen, except we've been down this road before and we all know where it leads: Books with advertisements embedded in them, which would ruin reading for me.

The competence identified is how well the agency was able to rapidly determine trust in a new employee; there's no good way to determine trust before the person is cleared, and after they are cleared access to confidential information
