Continually stating that they aren't 'at odds' with the Rust project. But, surely they are if they're creating an entirely separate fork? I have no skin in the Rust game, so have no opinion, but that strikes me as odd

Yeah that's the same here, not sure if it's the case for parking fines though. It differs county by county, and private parking providers each have their own sets of rules I guess

On the fence on this one, because it seems unfair to punish someone more just because they're doing well, for essentially the same crime. But... there was a drug dealer in our block of flats once who had so much cash he'd park his

It's been late several times, and I've had to remind and pester. I started working with them full-time in December, they pay every two weeks, the mid-week payment has been late a few times. But I said 'this is now my full tim

I can certainly prove I did a whole bunch of work for a fairly lengthy period, so could be something worth me exploring. Thanks for that! Was about to just write it off

Going through something similar now, all my bills and direct debits bounced today because I wasn't paid and my reminder message was ignored. I guess it's always a risk. I have no legal recourse because I didn't have a contrac

That's a good point, I realised as I was writing my original comment that I'm probably using very recent definitions of those terms. Historically, 'techno' probably was a more all encompassing term, so it's easy for

This issue seems to stem from the misuses of the term 'techno'. My understanding is that Detroit was house music. I feel like they're using the term 'techno' as an all encompassing term for electronic music. Detroit

Oh man, this is excellent news. Wrestling with my 16-inch laptop out of my overpacked rucksack, then trying to cram it back in again when you're cutting it fine already is a pain

I paste whole blocks of code into it and ask it to improve it, like make it simpler or reduce duplication. If I have a straight-forward 'thing' I need to do, like, break a file up into chunks of a certain size, I'll ask it to

It actually got me my current job. An investor found my blog on Go microservices, and was looking for someone with some experience around that to help get his product/platform off the ground. I worked on it part-time for a couple of ye

I'm not sure it's age related, sure, we might slow down slightly over time, but what we lose in speed... we gain in wisdom, soft-skills, experience in general. Which I suspect more than makes up for a slightly decline in sheer spe

I have ADHD and have found Slack to be a massive distraction. I haven't fully solved the issue, but explaining to your manager 'look, I can't always be available on Slack, I need to block time off in my calendar where I have

Shame, Atom was an absolute game changer back in the day. Pathed the way for new text editors. Fond text editing memories!

I haven't used PHP in almost a decade, but I've been super impressed with what I've seen in the most recent few versions. Looks really cool, it's gotten me tempted to dust it off again at some point

Not at all, writing code only make up a relatively small portion of what engineering actually is. Writing code is a tool in the tool box. Engineering is about managing complexity, creating order, understanding what to build and when. It&#x2

I hope not, I genuinely enjoy driving, I love the feel of shifting gears in my Type R. Plus, in a lot of cars, Type R's are a good example, they have a really high red line, you can squeeze a lot of revs out of the engine. But the gear

Exciting idea, I love Clojure, but every time I tried Clojure, I found myself butting heads with the Java ecosystem, and I always wished it had its own ecosystem and interpreter/compiler. I will caveat that that's just because I&#

A friend of mine who's lived in South Korea and China for the past ten years tried to open a Monzo account and they denied him without reason. I suspect it's because he hasn't had any credit history in the UK for the past ten

I've been playing Red Alert on this for a few years, and it's sooooo good. I used to play RA as a kid, and I love having it back.

I lived in Lichfield for eight years, there's some really decent restaurants there for sure. Not that I ever went! Surprised to see a Birmingham Mail article, front-page HN :D
