    Disappointing to see that they're taking a centralized approach to this problem. There are alternatives out there, but I guess they're not interested.

    Agreed... seems like the bottleneck is the cost and time to run the CT scan, not to have a doctor look at the results.

    Nice! I feel like this project is mirroring the development of the internet itself. :D

    Same here! I can't remember if I did the moving mouse thing, but I definitely opened the CD drive to unfreeze the computer.

    It's a little depressing how long it takes to complete projects like this, but encouraging that they're even trying. So... I guess I feel neutral about this on the balance. Anyone …

    To me, the most surprising factoid in this article is that Estonia offers 86 weeks of maternity leave! That's so much! And with such a low cost of living... goodbye, Bay Area.

    So true. It's also interesting to me that many companies have switched from "Unlimited" PTO to "Flexible" PTO... I had a co-worker recently who started counting up the time they'd …

    Such a great idea. Glad to hear GitHub itself is working on this problem, but OctoLinker fills a gap for sure. Just need Scala support now for it to be really useful...

    All the incentives are in all the wrong places. No surprise, self-regulation isn't working. (But still very disappointing.)

    As a few people have pointed out, this feels a lot like an attempt at solving one environmental problem (proliferation of waste plastic) by exacerbating another environmental probl…

    I think this seems pretty cool. I can see using it for all sorts of projects with minimalist needs, e.g. quick prototyping, interview coding assignments, admin consoles.

    Don't worry folks, I'm sure this won't hinder the CBP and other related agencies from continuing to roll out systems that capture ever more of our data.

    There are plenty of benefits that don't apply to me that I'm getting shafted on. If I didn't commute, for example, I would be missing out on commuter benefits that I otherwise have…

    I do think there are going to be more and more use cases where having more than one or two replicas is necessary, even if there aren't that many right now. IoT strikes me as an exa…

    That would make sense. It's a pretty common practice for acquisitions to start out with a business partnership to see how well the two companies work together. This could simply be…

    I feel a lot better that I only have 123 passwords in my vault now, and some of those are definitely duplicates.

    This, so much. It's where review comments like "why don't you just do X?" come from, where "X" is a systematic change. Condescension coming from a place of strength doesn't make it…

    Gah, naming! It feels like a sign of a lack of empathy to not at least give some semi-meaningful name to a variable. "x" is only acceptable if you're literally writing a function t…
