I sort of blame exceptions here. They make it really easy to just let the error bubble up to the top. But often times the place where the error gets thrown doesn't have all the necessary context to have a really good error message. If

First of all I agree with you. But I would like to note one aspect of this that has always been true. Many times the error message itself is terrible. They say that an error happened and then they give you absolutely no context for the erro

THIS. Don't paper over the issues with shadow IT. Make them painfully obvious to the point where IT has to do something or answer to it. Otherwise it will not change. I've given teams the option to turn off their pagers when this

Isn't the primary use-case for plausible that you can run the tracking entirely off of your own domain. Which means that blocking plausible.io doesn't really give you much.

In a democracy the answer to all of the above has to be yes. You literally get what you vote for in a democracy. Even more so in the kind of direct democracy that San Francisco engages in so frequently.

I mean it's hard to argue that it isn't the voters fault. Whether that is because they are not electing a conservative enough mayor or not isn't the point of the article. Vote in non-corrupt officials who are willing to clean

The value is whatever price the asset will sell for today. This is informed by but not determined by the price it was last sold for. This difference is important.

I would say it's better then the Human's tendency to drive full speed into anything while impaired by a drug. Especially since the bug was fixed in Tesla's case but the bug in Human's case is probably un-fixable.

Even if they did they may have preferred Rust because parsing arbitrary user provided input is one of the more risky things you can do in C. This is a perfect use case for Rust's memory safety model.

Mozilla was doing this literally before Google existed. The origins of how cookies work predate Google as a company let alone as an advertiser platform. At the time Netscape was not beholden to an advertising company at all. The previous po

The funny thing is that you are failing to recognize the value of devices that can render web pages, give navigation instructions that won't get me lost, run games, have long battery life, great screen quality, and a bunch of other thi

No I'm saying a Russian bank probably doesn't look past the deposit. But if the deposit comes from America then an American bank will ask for it back when the US govt tells it to and then the bank will do so because it's good

Because Russian banks need to be capable of transacting with American banks and directly receiving money that is Ransom Payment related is a bad business decision.

You make a lot of claims here but I don't see anything in your post to back up the numbers. I'm too lazy to go do this research myself so I'm left as a result with defaulting to disbelieving you.

There are likely a lot of factors powering the correlation in the article. Absence of school social pressures could be one. Better access to your family as a support network and subsequent loss could be another. Since it is morally question

I have also been on both sides and I'll say that each side has different sets of advantages highly dependent on a host of factors a non exhaustive list of which is: * Culture * CI/CD tooling support * Codebase sizes

It's almost as if economics and personal situations governs progress much more than knowledge and ideas... That has always been the case and will probably always be the case.

I think I mostly agree. I will always be grateful that my parents were able to do it well for me. But I don't think it's automatically always the right choice and should not be undertaken lightly.

I was homeschooled k-12 and my recommendations are much more nuanced. 1. Homeschooling is an enormous investment both in time and money. Not every family can afford to do it. 2. Done incorrectly homeschooling can have an adverse effect on t

In isolation there is no difference. In fact if rust or go apps are the only apps you deploy containers are probably overkill for you. But if you also deploy java/node/python/ruby then containers provide not just reproducible
