On the same note, the implementation of Stuff in Ruby is not very ruby-like. It could have just used `.each` on the `@a_list` (in that case, you just delegate the implementation to…

This is deviating too much from the original topic, but: 1) Your initial comment just took a bash at the author about being joyful regarding some topic - "what's there to be joyful…

It's not really up to you to decide what brings joy to the author. You can write a similar essay, who said you couldn't? What point are you trying to make? If it's something you fe…

I would be curious to understand what frameworks people tend to use on top of nodejs (or even react). I have not found a standard devise-like way of implementing authentication in …

This could work - similar to what happens in some bluetooth pairing flows. But you could still send a text message with a phishing link under the same Sender ID and fool someone in…

I see this more as "do not assume until there's evidence of malice". Not that you should not look for evidence - basically, innocent until proven guilty. There's a tendency to judg…
