    What does the year have to do with it? Aesthetics and appearance have a lot to do with our decisions every day. The people you date, news you read, shoes you buy, etc. There's noth…

    I have been using vim and tmux for over 10 years as my primary development setup. I have tried others things like vscode, jetbrains ides and even cloud based ides (like cloud9, bef…

    She speaks the truth often, but I never really got how she portrays herself. Not a huge fan... regardless, she should be able to say whatever she wants and use the platform she bui…

    It doesn't have user IDs... seems like an odd selling point... if you have good end to end encryption who cares if you have user IDs? I imagine you could do network analysis and so…

    I stick with vim. It’s already installed anywhere that matters. Why bother installing neovim? I don’t rely on neovim only extensions. In my experience, most people using neovim are…

    Yes… I agree. However, I imagine one handwritten letter to a friend or loved one would be far more enriching for most people than 100 published blog posts.

    This seems like a long shot and a very optimistic view of a public presence. It’s equally likely anything you put online will be used against you in the future. I doubt the risks o…

    Why publish at all? Who cares if something blows up and goes viral? Why should I spend any time publishing anything? Personally, I’d rather spend time doing something that enriches…

    It isn’t clear why the discussion is around flutter. The problem is when you define yourself by the technology you know. You’re an app developer or an engineer, not a flutter devel…

    Is it just me, or is this over engineered? Brings me back to SOAP services and WSDLs.

    My idea of a C development environment has always been Vim, Tmux and a decent compiler.

    I am not sure it's so black and white with encryption. It depends on your threat model. Keeping it secure from an angry ex-girlfriend is one thing, but keeping it secure from a thr…

    Was this kid arguing about the automatic encrypt/decrypt file capability and Bram's unwillingness to use a cryptographically secure algorithm? It was a long, long thread that got h…

    I can somewhat understand the idea... but I don't see this as my mistake. A person agreed to pay for something. They signed an agreement. The payment terms were specified (N-30). T…

    The debt is too much for small claims court, not too little.

    This has been done, but they already used all of the plan that was agreed upon.

    Comment #37066526

    I understand-- what about the use of a debt collector? Wouldn't it be better to settle for N, where N is greater than 0? Especially if the collector does all of the work/time inves…

    Sad. I didn't interact with Bram much, but I did have an email exchange with him early in my software developer journey. I submitted a few patches to Vim and he helped me work thro…

    Alternatively, search the web for everyone implementing "/ip" and random load balance between all of them and let them handle the load for you.

    I paid off ~65K in student debt in one year (first year as a developer)... it's totally doable, especially in the USA.

    I gave Tailwind a shot but ultimately settled with Bootstrap. It wasn't because Tailwind was bad-- I thought it provided a lot of value. The issues that ultimately made me switch t…
