But it's only a dark pattern in the right (wrong?) context, no? For instance, my webmail has infinite scroll and it's damn convenient. Yet, I never find myself mindlessly scrolling through my mail. It doesn't increase the tim

I'm sorry for your loss. I had a similar experience in the US. In my case, a doctor flatly contributed the (impending) death a byproduct of COVID. All tests prior to COVID were positive and pointed to many more years ahead. I'm no

This is one of the things I miss about Perforce - every merge was effectively a squash merge, but the branch was still there, just not visible by default (if I remember correctly). It was the best of both worlds - you keep a complete audit

Apple isn't in the habit of treating end of life or soon to be replaced products in this way, so it raised some eyebrows. MacRumors got a follow up from Apple confirming that it has been discontinued. I suspect with the upcoming perfor

This is sound advice that I can definitely get behind. However anecdotally it's not what I've observed to be true. In my above mentioned example, the people with the most and strongest relationships throughout the org were not the

I was at Disney for almost a decade (possibly at the division ultimately responsible for Disney+, but I’m not positive - it’s hard to keep up with all of the changes and renaming) and this is 100% what I observed there. Over and over. The i

They almost certainly render two frames at a time. Thus bringing the render time down to only 100+ years per film.

I ran (self-hosted) TeamCity at a division of Disney for years with hundreds of projects across teams with lots of complex dependencies. To this day (though I haven't kept up as much in recent years), it's far and away the most po

Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Over 20 years of really solid experience here doing some awesome stuff for recognizable employers. I’ve had the exact experiences as the author. One recent interview run by ex-FUAANG folks started with a non-triv

I haven't had to upgrade to 6, so it's a bummer to hear it's so painful. On a fresh Rails 6 project built with "--webpack=stimulus", I haven't had to muck with Webpack (on two ongoing products and a handful of

I empathize with everything you're saying here, but I do humbly disagree. I've experienced exactly what you're talking about, and it's a nightmare. Frankly, I think the Rails codebase itself even suffers from an over use

I was introduced to the idea of ghost kitchens a couple years ago. Initially, I was pretty keen on the idea. But at the time, we already had ghost kitchens operating in LA, and since then we've seen more open up. What have I not seen?

So, threads and instances are two very different things. They both use memory, though threads use far, far less memory - just like in other languages where you would use threads for concurrency. When Ruby's GIL is waiting on I/O,

I’ve never counted, but based on how many pods I’ve used and how many bags I’ve recycled, I’d have to guess around 100. Maybe more? I actually take my bag to the Nespresso store, so while it’s a fair point to raise about the overall efficie

This is not correct. When Ruby is doing I/O such as this is the only time it’s not blocking. This is due to Ruby, not specific to Rails. Here are a few references: https://github.com/puma/puma/issues/1003

I can relate to much of what you're saying. This seems to be the common trapping of modern society - everyone must be happy and care about the same things. I'm not professionally qualified on the subject, but my vote is embrace it

In ‘94 (if not earlier), I was drinking lattes at a mom and pop coffee shop in a tiny town in the Midwest. And at another indie coffee shop at the nearest major university campus. That place was open 24 hours and busy at all hours. I didn’t

Hey! I just saw this and thought I'd follow up for posterity's sake in case anyone else came across this. This gets into how we want to define "diffing", but I would say no, no there's not any diffing on the body, m

The title is misleading as it implies everything new in macOS, when the linked page is limited to human interface guidelines. Perhaps this should be retitled something like "What's new in MacOS Big Sur (UX|HIG|Human Interace Guide

It absolutely is. Turbolinks’ bad rap is from earlier days and was partially due to just a different JS landscape where certain patterns relied on a hard refresh to not have memory leaks as you change page, or other odd behaviors. I was one

If this is done right, this would be a fantastic asset. I read two of the articles and they seem quite well done and seemingly more objective than I'd expect on similar sites. I'm in the process of launching my own product, so all
