If you're in a major metro area it's generally not too bad.

That was my thinking... even for specialists, I can generally get into a new one within a few weeks. My SO is on state Medicaid (cancer) and does experience the kinds of waits mentioned above... so I guess it does follow similarly for gover

I'm consistently amazed how many developers and security professionals don't have a clear understanding how PPK even works conceptually. Things like deploying dev keys to various production environments, instead of generating&#x2F

The last time I booted to a windows drive on my prior desktop was to update the firmware on a Samsung NVME SSD drive to prevent premature failure. Was kind of a pain for even that task as I hadn't been running Windows for about a yea

Property binding and proxies really didn't work well in JS at all until relatively recently, and even then there is actually a much worse history of state management bugs in apps that do utilize those patterns. I've yet to active

Well, their lowest tier devs, they have started firing and churn a lot... combined with mass layoffs... and on the higher end, they're more interested in devs that memorized all the leet code challenges over experienced devs/engin

Even worse, 3 memory companies control well over 90% of the international market, with a history of cartel collaboration that's going to be ever harder to prove with fewer companies.

Datacenters themselves are really weird... most of the announced 2024 data centers are nowhere near completion, most of NVidia's production is taking longer to deploy than to produce and will be upwards of 2+ years behind on deployment

Even when it is rendered... I have my text/zoom level pretty close to maxed out on Android as my issues are mostly retinal, not correctable with glasses... and so many apps will completely scroll my long inputs off screen while I'

+1 here... Lenovo business laptops have a history of being particularly good at being user repairable. I'm probably going to go with Framework myself whenever I do upgrade. Still using an M1 air, which suites my day to day needs, I do

FWIW, I think .Net Aspire is pretty interesting along a similar vein. I mostly just rely on shell scripts and docker-compose configuration(s) for dev though.

I can imagine a full build of the project(s) in TFA are on the order of several minutes to build/run the first, and maybe every time. I remember working on projects before SSDs were common that would take on the order of a half hour o

Not sure that I agree... I think some of the worst AI code I've had to deal with and the most problematic are when dealing with Java or C#... I've found TS/JS relatively nice and Rust in particular has been very nice in term

This is definitely true... as a mod/admin on EchoJS, can't tell you the number of times I've seen unnecessary IoC/DI libraries created in JS/TS to match the style of Java or C#. The reality is that as a scripted env

I think that's generally true of most knowledge domains for anything resembling complex work. Govt, banking, pharma, medical, SaaS all will have a lot of specific requirements that come from deep historical, regulatory or business nee

Similar for C# in practice... I actually really like a lot of modern C#, though I use FastEndpoints as an (imo) upgrade to minimal API surface, generally with Dapper and as few layers as possible in a feature oriented structure (single proj

I tend to defer auth to JWT token usage... you have a properly RSA signed token against a valid public key, you're in. In terms of ORMs, I actually avoid them... I like data adapters that make writing general SQL queries easier... for

I think this is probably a large part of it... I remember working on an app a few years ago, where it was explicit that it likely wouldn't see more than 15-20 active users at any given deployment... and with the level of normalization

That's kind of where I stand on this too... though I'm more fond of a lot of C# than Java, I find that it's the developer ecosystem and work environments themselves that exist on so many piles of abstractions and patterns tha

Not sure that I completely agree here... I think part of the issue is that things have slowed down and even parallel GPUs are about as big as they can physically get. The top of the line is pretty much gate-kept and sitting in warehouses (

Maybe... it's hard for me to remember for sure... I know around 2010 or so, my laptops had 16gb ram (my daughter is still using my old MBP)... I know I was running 32gb on my desktop from the Core 2 days through half a decade on my i7-

Well, there are DNS tunneling projects, so I would suspect you could displace the network support in DOOM with a DNS based protocol.

I know they tend to get much slower early evenings in the Western US... Not sure if this is everyone on the west coast going home and working on stuff, or the early people in the Asia region coming online.

It's not nothing for most people... it's more than a month of rent/mortgage for a significant number of Americans even. But if it's your primary hobby, it's not completely out of reach, and it's not something

I spent aaround that on my current personal desktop... 9950X, 2x48gb ddr5/@6000, RX 9070XT, 4tb gen 5 nvme + 4tb gen 4 nvme. I could have cut the cpu to a 9800x3d and ram to 32gb with a different GPU if my needs/usage were differ

Yeah.. late 90's to early 00's was pretty peak builder era. I learned through a relative fluke how much going a bit over the top on memory and faster drives really helped over even a faster CPU/GPU a lot of the time for gene

Back when Fry's Electronics actually had hardware in stock. The last time I tried to get something at the North Phoenix location, it was pitiful and I couldn't find what I needed. I hadn't been there for years and wound up
