Considering how this thread started, you're saying that we need to escape to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1Sq1Nr58hM But more pragmatically, neither Bios

A point of comparison should be to git.kernel.org, which loads and renders instantly (at least compared to all these other sites), contains a massive amount of actual content per page, is highly cacheable on the server, and uses exactly z

If your arrays start at 0, you have offsets. If your arrays start at 1, you have indexes. "0-indexed" shouldn't be a thing. I like the screenshot quote that refers to this as either "1-origin" or "0-origin&quo

Safe in that there's a good chance that everyone has an answer for the question. It's the same thing like asking about the weather: it's easy to observe and most people will have some kind of, even minor, opinion about it. I

Thank you for pointing out this lack of accuracy and clarity. Majority is hyperbolic, but even a quarter is a big enough chunk that it motivates both employees and employers to locate in and look for each other in those areas. I guess it&#x

Yep, this is what happens when your "growth" metric is employee headcount, under the naïve assumption that more people is a proxy for more work getting done is a proxy for revenue. This may make more sense for a sales-focused org

The provided example is pretty rough, and I'm sure it's occurred in the wild. Sure, put the units in the variable name, and it encourages this kind of mistake, because time.Duration is not "seconds", it is a duration.

For a really rough comparison, you can look at the building of the east span of the Oakland Bay bridge. It's also worth noting how many people died while building them. (Disclosure: I've never looked this up or done this comparis

Sure, but it doesn't always happen like that. You're in sales at a company in a highly competitive space and are exited. You're not the kind of person to premeditate taking anything with you, perhaps you left on good terms.
