   Does Orbit not work with Firefox Developer Edition? I had the browser open, but after downloading the extension it didn't seem to detect it or install it.

   I wish Mozilla wouldn't break what is already fixed. I think the original MDN format and order is better than this. Most of the best content is already on MDN and they should keep developing and improving that.

   I would say the Odin Project is another high-quality resource without a hidden agenda.

   For me it was Christmas 1977 when me and my little brother got an Atari 2600 console. We spent almost the entire day (except for taking a break for meals) playing all the variations of Combat. Later, in 1980, I bought Adventure with my pape

   Why does this not work with VSCodium as well?

   I tend to agree with this, but I went in the reverse direction. I started out with kickstart.nvim and moved to LazyVim when I saw what Folke was doing with it. It's an excellent config and rarely chokes on large files or breaks, even t

    I don't think that's the only real world use for VPNs. For instance, you might be working remote from a foreign country and not want your employer to know that. It's not something that I would recommend, but you know it happe

    I take your point. I was at a very preppy east coast school whose name you've definitely heard of. One day I was walking past a high-end apartment complex where I knew a lot of sorority girls lived. There was one of those expensive chr

    All you have to do to see this is to look at how some of the biggest tech CEOs and moguls like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Elon, Jeff Bezos, etc. treat giving their children screens to babysit them. Pretty sure most of them don&#x27

    One of the ways you know a project is going wrong is when it's using JS to do things that HTML and CSS should be doing.

    For Bluesky, there's a Starter Pack consisting of only Google DeepMind employees. Seems like a good place to start on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/starter-pack/sharky6000.bsky.social/3l7kt6x...

    Thanks; this is a very helpful and informative reply. Are you referring to DeepLearning.AI?

    Oh, I've seen this before and it's true in an anecdotal sense for me. One reason why is that they always think of hiring an additional developer as a cost, never savings.

    Yeah, it's impressive that someone built this. But the most impressive thing to me is that he has a group of friends who have been doing LAN parties together for 30 years. I can't think of anyone that I know that still does that.

    This resonates with me; I'm a dev who has been out of work for over a year. I actually visited the Longwood Gardens careers page to see if they had any openings...

    Very much a new-ish thing but quite pervasive. I see it all the time. Massive amounts of jobs are being posted to drive competition or to make the company look like they are growing, but there's no intention to hire anyone.

    This is a great comment. It was really the same kind of landscape in US media, only without the topless women. NYT, WaPo, Newsweek et al. could be counted on as being liberal, while Wall Street Journal and the New York Post were popular con

    While I agree with your overall comment, in that clip Cenk says that picking Tim Walz as VP was the obviously right thing to do. I don't think that's as obvious as Cenk seems to believe it is.

    I dunno guys, I've become really, really used to the whole "wired in" protocol where if you have fully over-ear headphones on, it means you are either in heads-down coding or writing mode, or you are on a call. It works as lo

    Of course you did—you proved to yourself that you have a closed, small mind that gets brainworms because you want to make everything a matter of politics. Every time I've posted a story that included any mention of Musk it guarantees i
