    Was excited to click on it to begin with, but nearly jumped out of my seat when I saw that it was Elixir and LiveView.

    It’s a shame that those Minsky links have been broken for at least a few months now. Does anyone know where this material is?

    Thank you so much for all of this great work. What was the inspiration for this direction? Was it a personal itch? Or something else?

    I’ve enjoyed all 4 of these articles in this “Jackpot” series. Sort of exploratory writing. You can feel that he’s trying to find the truth, not necessarily convince. Plus it’s lik…

    I liked this. It’s a different approach so take a look at the free pages. Not for everyone but worth a look to see if it fits you. Bonus: the author is responsive. https://machinel…

    I don't think Chinese cyber spying is really news to anyone. What's different about this now is that the U.S., a few others and notably, NATO are specifically calling out China for…

    This got me today. Probably could be characterized as the classic case of: Company says a certain use case is unsupported, but tries hard to accommodate users who are stuck with th…

    Does anyone know if "docketed" means that SCOTUS granted Certiorari?

    I second this. What was your handle?

    This makes so much sense, and now looking at this image, I wonder if it explains "tabs vs spaces".

    I think your examples are valid. I wonder though if it's a choice for someone to work 80 hours a week at $40k to make video games versus 37 hours a week at $80k doing forms over ta…

    I'm 46 years old. I can't think of one example where I was exploited as a tech worker. I'm from a union town, grew up in a union family. I support unions. The UAW was very importan…

    The author makes a case against “corporate giganticism” being a cause and blames a “government agency” namely The Fed. It’s hard to take anything the article says seriously if they…

    Posting from Ferndale and some super seriously expensive commercial real estate. I'd say it used to be cheap, but Ferndale is long past cheap now. Hip? Yes, and we pay on par with …

    I think Dan Gilbert spent all of his Lebron money on skyscrapers and Detroit Venture Partners for one. Pete Karmanos for two.

    They aren't very up to date. Many of these have been replaced. The velodrome is maintained by people who simply like to ride. It doesn't look like that picture at all. We get it. T…

    Couldn't get your way to work, it blew off the rest of the string. Managed to get it to work by calling .to_s on each variable. Wondering if I did something wrong. I have your same…
