but as my major I chose mechanical engineering because at the time, there was a lot of talk about the US software industry crashing and it all going to India. I was in college 07-11. When I later asked my dad "WTF why did I not study

Is it common for people under ~35 to have so much back pain and medical issues? I thought back pain in young people is usually related to something like a bad injury. I get back pain when I'm working at the desk a lot , but that'

I agree but it's difficult to make any comment on this sort of thing without being misinterpreted and/or seen as minimizing women's equality and the right to equal pay. As far as the rest of her article, I agree with it and I

I’ll check it out. I will admit I like being able to combine several configs into a single setup.cfg or package.json, but I’m usually the guy who has a separate config file checked in for every tool he’s using.

There are even linting rules to ban use of class components, IiRC. You’re not wrong. Hooks are being pushed HARD for new code.

Idk where he was going with that, I think he either doesn’t know what nested means or he was referencing different codez

That makes a lot more sense than my assumption (based on his next paragraph) that he just didn’t like chained ‘if’ statements. His mention of “nested ifs” threw me off tremendously, considering that code block doesn’t contain any nested ifs

Pylint is a much better linting tool than flake8.

Not the most agreeable way of saying it, but 100% agree. Why is it that every-time someone says something _everyone else should be thinking_, it gets downvoted to hell. I'm guessing it's because the way you said it, but something

I haven't looked into poetry, but your comment makes me shake my head and wonder... what's wrong with setup.cfg to begin with? Another damn file format? What?

And you've got at least a few single-quotes in your comment through language use of contractions. In code, I prefer whichever style tends to produce the fewest escape-sequence situations. If the code contains hard-coded strings, that&#

Agreed. Pipenv only led to confusion and pain for me. Last time I tried to use it in a project led to not knowing what the heck to do once I wanted to in my dockerfile - do I install pipenv inside docker? what's the point of that? Is t

Maybe tenors are seen as worth developing because it is so much more rare than a male baritone? I’m not sure your hypothesis has any weight, but I do sympathize with you ;). OTOH, I suspect many of the falsetto and high male voices are more

I agree. And I can’t imagine many people would have known about the investments if he had not written this apology. I guess the author felt an inordinate amount of guilt about it all and needed to get it off his shoulders. It’s one thing to

I don’t know, I’d say for the majority of people who aren’t so narrowly focused on conspiracy theories and political power struggles, life looks way different than it did 30 years ago. Even in poor countries Facebook and cheap instant commu

pipenv really solves the Python version problem, IIRC. I don't actually use pipenv, myself, since I haven't had time to thoroughly figure out the new magic and I prefer to know exactly what's going on with my Python's. n

Meanwhile, all the python developers who have started doing any Js work are saying “I wish npm worked as easy as pip/virtualenv”... It really isn’t that difficult, it’s just different. Different always seems wrong, at first.

If anything, writing my own website sounds like a waste of time, especially when there are so many good tools out there like Hugo, Jekyll, etc. and templates to use as a basis for any personal blog or portfolio. Hell, I can’t even find time

Here’s a tip for avoiding adapters: just buy a cable that has USB-C on one end instead. Or get a simple-ass dongle that has SD card USB ports on one end and USB-C on the other. These cost like $10, literally, without HDMI of course. All thi
