I think this is the opposite of bikeshedding, it's literally a core feature and constraint.

The article mentions a lot of the reasons. Our building codes, especially the double stairway requirement, eliminate a lot of reasonable layouts and have downstream effects on the …

I've been considering VTV lately, it's somewhat close to what you're describing. It tracks CRSP US Large Cap Value which has more rules in place to be considered for inclusion than…

I think opening Gemini is a tragic missed opportunity when you could be Rick Rolling people, or whatever the modern equivalent is.

My dad was a software engineer when he was younger, but his skills atrophied over the decades as he worked his way into upper management and spent all of his non work time caring f…

I've been wondering how they've been able to be so generous with Composer usage with it still making business sense. Seems like this is the answer: presumably they think they'll ha…

Yeah these are pretty common in the US, but they're just not ubiquitous. Many airports will still have a CT machine next to the old one and it just depends on what line you get out…

IIRC the 20k number depended on the 7k federal rebate that recently expired, so it will probably be more like 27k

I've worked at a couple of companies with pay scales on part with FAANG, as well as a startup that was extremely selective in hiring. We rarely looked at GitHub, and never used it …

Having been to both Indonesia and Myanmar, I can say confidently Burmese food is much better. The one exception is the dessert Martabak you can get in Java is to die for.

I think Jerk might be too specific of a term. You probably just want to be looking out for someone you don't want as a coworker. My goto question is to ask people what motivates th…

I think the idea is that perfect is the enemy of good here and that getting from 90% to 100% involves tradeoffs that aren't actually worth it from a language ergonomics point of vi…

165F is the safe eating temperature recommended for most meats here in the U.S.

I have that exact same nightmare! The harder I press on the brake, the less it does, as if the brake power is following a logarithmic curve. Although I don't really know why I have…

At the time it was actually called "atom shell" iirc. Electron came from Atom.

I think the 600MB part actually makes it harder to only install again when you need it.

I had a bad manager at a previous job, although they were just more incompetent than actively trying to micromanage. I managed to get onto another team by making connections intern…

I remember when web components first came out and there was some hype around them, and just being really confused on what they're actually good for. I think it's really telling tha…

A lot of politicians are against surveillance too, they just get outnumbered. I think it's an unfair assumption to assume the parent comment is for surveillance legislation, especi…

I think the missed a big opportunity with this kick starter by not offering people anything meaningful when they back it. They easily could've included people's names in a credits …

If you want the same thing but not as sketchy you can check out Cursor. You pay them, so it's a little more transparent what they're getting out of it.

If you're considering a VPS I'd also check out Hetzner. They only have Germany and Finland locations, but if latency isn't an issue (or if you're in Europe) you can get really good…
