Finding other places to talk to people is a solution it's just not one you're willing to take seriously due to prioritizing work over a social life. There is a group of people that genuinely have an excuse here, but most of their

Yes, and you'll find many of those very large corps are questioning why they're using it now. Which is a great thing, many businesses should be in constant reevaluation of why they rely on certain tooling. Personally doubt the bet

That doesn't seem like a big enough win when CSS variables exist and offer far more readable options (as you're the one naming them). On that front, I reckon majority of Tailwind developers use far fewer variables than they believ

Good joke, an exec testing in different browsers to ensure the color tint is the right color.

720p with ads at just $1 cheaper than Disney+/Hulu with ads is quite a bad option. There needs to be greater backlash against this so Netflix is forced to either cut price closer to under $5, or match competitors with full HD.

If everyone should look at government the same way, then government has failed tremendously and we should stop pushing this farce of "democracy".

I find that to get the superior UX experience, there is quite a lot of work that has to be done upfront. A lot of technical experience is also assumed because many of these “bridges” don't have real guides. But once you do go through t

As if Apple is just a tiny little startup looking for VC funds to get into the automotive industry and couldn't possibly compete with Ford. >And for what? Control over the entire driving experience. Just like they are obsessed with

This is an amazing tip! I use TTS quite a lot for checking certain accessibility issues, never once thought to use it for my own writing.

You can see how they roughly spend their revenue here [1]. Although it might be out of date now, it does highlight how expensive browser development really is at that scale. [1] https://frankhecker.com/2020/08/15&#

Yes they would work with the gatekeepers. But they would absolutely not take funding from the gatekeepers, that's absurd.

Having to leave due to disagreeing affects you even if you eventually land somewhere else better. It absolutely alters the way you view that space between you and those with more influence than you, and you will likely do a bunch of added w

Why would you think that? All of the game developers I've met don't really view themselves as separate from traditional software best practices, just that there's a lot more involved in making a game than people are ever real

Do you have any proposed solutions for the problems that exist? Going back to fundamentals doesn't eradicate the problems, it will only recreate them in a slightly altered state. One of the most commonly proposed solutions is we keep t

In the example listed, the only difference is a pay cut and the cut isn't that large. Which is also a far cry from usual gig workers which definitely do not get paid anywhere near FANG salaries. I do think if this transition were to ha
