Yeah I really want to see him do that with a mobile app. With a website it _might_ work in some scenarios but on mobile, having no shared UI is practically impossible (while it is merely extremely inconvenient on the web).

It doesn't surprise me at all, and I'm happy that so many people have to endure their terrible children now instead of sending them out to harass others.

It's not that the desktop "linux" developers don't care about security. But there's simply not enough manpower behind it. The linux kernel is only secure because that's what the cloud companies with a shit ton

It's not that the vulnerability isn't dangerous. It's that there are already _so_ many other vulnerabilities that outside of maybe JavaScript it doesn't make a whole lot of difference. Desktop linux security is basically

WebRTC is much better at having "consistently good video quality" as this benchmark convincingly shows: https://jitsi.org/news/a-simple-congestion-test-for-zoom/

9 months of runway with 0 income is a lot, especially for a company that size.

But how many mech/civil engineers actually do any math beyond napkin calculations in their day-to-day work? It's way too complicated and all the math is now done by computers. In fact I'd argue that outside of research more c

I really wouldn't call it modern, unless you consider C++ modern.

It really doesn't work that well especially on small screens. Spotify for example has a minimum size and will be unusable when the tile is smaller than that because half the window isn't visible. Focus-follows-mouse is also broken

You can get literally the same "simplicity" as a "dynamically typed" language through structural row-polymorphic types with type inference, i.e. static duck typing. Not to mention that the concepts of static and dynamic

I sure am glad I never have to do pair programming with someone like you.

So his first instinct was to waste hours on this debugging instead of just googling the error message and finding the cause within seconds?

The concepts really aren't that easy (though they are indeed simple). While I disliked the names too at the beginning, I realize now that they are necessary, because it's important to be precise with your words and the concepts ar

Your analogy is ironic because there is almost no cafes in Germany with free wifi. The telecommunications infrastructure in general is terrible. Even directly in the city center I barely have mobile internet reception and I have doubt that

Go is one of the worst things to happen to the programming community in recent times, truly a 20 year step back that ignores practically everything we have learned about programming. > Go is taking the time to get each piece right and I&

I really don't see how people have trouble finding Scala jobs. All the respectable newish companies around me use Scala on the backend (old and large companies are unfortunately still stuck with Java and similar abominations). If someo

Obviously you don't have much experience with IDEs and statically typed languages, which is a shame because they make our life so much easier. There are no edge cases. And even if there were the IDE can show you the refactoring and you

AMD has always been better at price/performance but in the laptop space the number 1 through 10 most important features are efficiency. Intel CPUs use less power and make less heat, which has always been the limiting factor.

So the keyboard guaranteed to break within the first 6 months on a 3k laptop is not among the worst two things?

To them not participating is the same as refusal. I have also been rejected from a startup like this for not being "enthusiastic" enough.

Surely even the poor people have 3 days off per year. They're just unwilling to give it up. If the school can decide on the 3 dates I can understand but otherwise it's just laziness.

I'm not getting paid for those 6 hours so why should I work?

In that case, an impartial third party would probably consider that harassment, regardless of your feelings. And it can be harassment even if they didn't intend to harass you/did it unknowingly. However, you _feeling_ uncomfortabl

If you set "making someone uncomfortable" as the bar for ousting people or even criminal charges, it's clear that this can only lead to trouble. There's a reason that the law against insults considers only the impression

Here is a quick real world example: You are working on a compiler, type checking statements one by one. You come across a function call and to type check that, you first need to type check the argument expressions to get their types and abo

How would you go about getting paid for that? I doubt it would be possible, even if the people that reported it really want to and need it, they could never get approval from the bureaucrats.
