If it was a German professor talking about buttermilk do you think he would given a build up?

Of course they would, dropped into a communication course with no prior warning. If it was a German professor talking about buttermilk do you think he would given a build up?

I disagree with the assertion, prior to your edit, that the complaint was necessarily unwarranted. But regardless, the reactions in the comments here are verging on hysterical - re…

No - I can’t remember when i learnt that; possibly because I’m English and due to geographical proximity. I was surprised by the linked video though, it could have done with a prio…

I can’t believe the reactionary comments to this. Of course, we have no idea of the context. But if it was anything like the linked video - and it could have been worse - it’s perf…

I don't think this is true - sounds like resharper, an extension for Visual Studio. I don't think this is the default out of the box.

StyleCop on the other hand - a freely available linter as opposed to the commercial resharper - mandates the use of `this` by default.

OP didn't say "work for free", they said "work for peanuts". I agree that freelancer sites have some problematic aspects, but I don't think there is anything wrong with the idea th…

This is called a "Pigouvian tax" or "externality tax" and a common example is a tax on fuel: "In the United States, the federal gas tax was $0.183 per gallon in 2019... The revenue…

Great comment - the concept you speak of can be described as an "information asymmetry" or more broadly as "bounded rationality" as opposed to econ 101 theories which often assume …

Every language has a lifecycle. I understood from a Microsoft conference I attended (regrettably I forget the speaker) that their decision to incorporate new features so rapidly wa…

Here's a link that summarises the tests. https://www.hrdefenseblog.com/2018/05/say-goodbye-to-indepen... This is very similar to the IR35 tests that operate in the UK, although tha…

There is already a speed limit, this is just enforcement isn't it? Do you agree with speed limits?

I can see how OP would come up with this - Angular w/Typescript is probably the "Microsoft Way" choice for front-end JS and has good support in VS. Once you've been exposed to a bi…

I'd been using Visual Studio for quite a while before I discovered it supported something like Vim's visual block mode - you can use alt-shift to select (and then edit) blocks of t…
