It's actually an offence in the UK to do that. Not that it stops anyone.

But Zuck is surely talking about AR glasses here, right? Full VR isn’t going to be a ubiquitous platform like phones/laptops etc.

My most productive schedule is 8am-4pm. 'Real' coding until about 2pm, the rest of the time on code reviews, bug triage, updating tickets etc. By 4pm my brain is kind of fuzzy. Of course, now I have to work around a 1hr 'stan

WFH makes family things so much easier that WFO can't really compete. On top of that the office is noisy, uncomfortable and located at the end of a stressful, expensive commute. For me one day a week in the office seems like a good b

I'm not sure I agree. In the UK we kind of have that: 16-18 you can drop all but 3-4 subjects, with no restrictions. But as university courses often have specific requirements, that means you're pretty much deciding on your degree

My kid's school is very sensible about this. If they have to phone you during the day for something minor they always start with "Hello, this is <school name>, there's nothing to worry about." It saves parents that

I think you're right, it's mostly internal tools these days. Like a lot of Java stuff, it's the dark matter of the software world.

Agreed, I would go with separate running headphones. Even if the sweat doesn't destroy them, I've lost several pairs of quasi-waterproof headphones to sudden heavy rain etc.

That’s not the definition of yak shaving I’ve ever used. I’ve always thought of it more like: - I find a bug - I track it down to a library I’m using. The fix is in a later release. - I go to upgrade the library, but that brings in some tra

It's not a closed system, is it? farmers are pumping in huge amounts of nutrients in the form of fertiliser, mostly made using fossil fuels.

Isn’t this the way everyone works? Write code, run some tests/linting locally, then create a PR to master and the CI server runs all the tests and reports pass/fail. Changes without a pass can’t be merged to master.

Really? Was it easy enough to define mappings between all the various fields/ticket types etc? I guess you could do it per-team across an organisation. It always seems hard enough to get information out of JIRA using JIRA when I watc

I've just been through this with running shoes. I found some Asics that were light, comfortable and just firm enough. Now they're gone, split into multiple different variants, none of which is what I want.
