Yeah, I think the people that had the best of this shitty situation are introverted, no child couples with stable remote supporting jobs. My wife and I are toast by kids'(2&4) bedtime, and can only sit on the couch watching somethi

I have had to service/replace parts of my Samsung dryer 4 times in 3 years, have never read any other positive notes about them. Their appliance quality has went downhill and I am never buying Samsung appliances again.

My three year old and I have been watching rocket launches since he was 18 months old. He expects all rockets to land back on earth now. I love that he's growing up with the idea that we don't need to throw away giant piles of met

Just re-read the entire cantos after 10 years. Totally agree, it's one of my favorite epics and the ending was extremely touching. If you haven't I recommend Carrion Comfort by Dan Simmons. It's a completely different kind of

Yeah if the nurse was able to fight this in the court (that's the whole other problem, where will she find time / money to fight it during a pandemic), the landlord is in deep legal trouble, no?

Isn't that because of the oligopoly airlines have? I live in a city with a small airport, and if I wanted to go to San Francisco, my only option for a direct flight is United.

I spent some time (but not enough) to add a tilt slider. Ultimately what it did was change the renderRows fY calculation to: let fY = y - Math.floor(scale * (height - minHeight) / heightRange) - r * tilt * 0.1; Of course, this c

Just played it with my 3 year old, and he had a real hard time with the "how many cats are ducks" kind of question... Cats can't be ducks after all! But he really enjoyed it otherwise, thank you for this, and thank you for ma

They are right. H1B is a temporary visa that you can get with a company sponsor pretty easily. You get a H1B for 3 years, and you can renew it once for another 3. Within those 6 years, if the company wants to retain you and get you a green

I use it to list all my PRs, with icons for their approval/CI status alongside a list of PRs that are awaiting my review. I like that the API is just outputting lines, but I wish there was more documentation.

And the industry pretty much modified agile in a way that gets the most work out of people, regardless of fit. So yeah, sometimes we do need something that's written as a "manifesto" to remind people what agile actually was s

What about those of us that refuse to use Facebook because of all the privacy problems? Are we suddenly voiceless in our community because we refuse to sell our identity to Facebook? "Connecting them to other likeminded individuals&quo

Day 15 should have been broken down. Or parts of it should have been earlier problems so by the time we got to day 15 it would be a time save to re-use code. I personally try to follow the order of problems, but I'm still on day 15 and

There is that saying: “Those who don’t remember the past are doomed to repeat it.” We learn a lot by studying how things from the past affected us as people. I’d argue that BBT has the exact same problem. Only this time they don’t need char

I wonder if the security guard or the librarian who left the post-it notes on their machines are reprimanded in any way. Or the librarian who left the student list excel file unlocked on the machine, that contains sensitive information. Whi

If a company forces two factor authentication, people will go to a product without it, because it's easier. It's easier to blame the product than bad security practices because no one is getting trained on these. I think the real
