> No more low-hanging fruit > Genetic engineering is in its infancy. Quantum computing and fusion are on the horizon. Neural brain links... Well if anything none of those examples you gave sound like low-hanging fruit.

I wonder why you got downvoted, it was an honest mistake and your comment was not aggressive in any way.

Yeah same here in Germany, it's considered very rude to schedule a meeting that spills over 5pm. I may still be working past that time, but I will decide that.

I completely agree with your point here. As I wrote in a previous comment for a different post: I'm currently developing an "experimental" piece of software, i.e. I am not even sure some features I want to add are possible, m

Seek professional advice, talk to a psychologist, start therapy. I see a lot of well intentioned advice here, but keep in mind that these are not professional therapists you are talking to here. Burnout can be different for everyone, just b

I'm currently developing an "experimental" piece of software, i.e. I am not even sure some features I want to add are possible, meaning I had to rewrite it a couple of times (and won't be the last). Having strict version

Why not? Is it a problem? I wish every developer I had to work with had written their own framework at least once in their lifetime. It teaches you a lot.

Thanks! I knew there was a thought experiment around this concept but I couldn't remember the name. You relieved me of my lethologica ^_^

If you replace each and every part except for the case, are you "turning an Aptiva into an i7" or are you just using an old case for your computer?

What's the use case for being able to zoom out of my desktop that far and have windows permanently rotated at an arbitrary angle? I feel that as a community we want to work on impressive things but we forget the small, boring stuff tha

I'm currently going through this, with the caffeine and everything, exactly as described. I know it will get better eventually, but while it doesn't it makes me feel quite powerless.

Is it tangential to mention that the content is not accessible?

Thanks! That's really nice of you :)

I don't have a Twitter account, so I can only read so much until Twitter hides the content behind a login/signup screen. Maybe it's just me but I find it ironic that a writeup about preserving content is given away to a corpo

Having worked with PWAs I don't get my hopes up anymore when it comes to iOS, they have added and subsequently broken support for key features in the past. I wish they would just fix the current features they claim to support rather th

I love it when someone writes an app to scratch an itch they have. That's why I got into software in the first place, great work!

I don't understand why this is in the homepage. Maybe I just don't get it because I never used 4chan.

What would you expect the JS community do after this? What would you do?

While I agree, I assume that the reason behind it is that icons don't require translation which allows them to sell the equipment worldwide without modifications to the interface. Not saying it's a good reason, but I wouldn't

My first question would be: what's your goal? Why do you want to open source it? Because if the answer is "knowledge sharing" then just document it and open it, that's it, whoever is interested will show up (and if nobod

I don't think it's fair to call it "misinformation" since that implies an intention to spread false or unchecked information. To the best of their knowledge , at the time, that was what the evidence pointed to. Then, as

Is it available in a format other than PDF? Like HTML or MOBI for example? PDF is very inconvenient to read on small screens like phones or kindle. Thanks!
