It's sometimes seen as a security issue, especially if you are not provided with a company-issued laptop. Or your work may require specialized equipment like beefy machines for 3D …

I wouldn't say that working efficiently with people directly counts as "meta". Productive cooperation with others sounds like a straightforward skill to improve, with no new rules …

There is also HATETRIS https://qntm.org/files/hatetris/hatetris.html

Both can be classified as 'anecdotes', I agree, but talking about your work conditions when asked, is a completely different anecdote as opposed to someone not actively complaining…

The difference between having a coding team manager that expects everyone should work 60+ hours and a non-coder who is against it, can be huge. I prefer the latter.

I vaguely remember all of those things as separate phases. - Moving away from IE, I fell in love with Opera (lots of built-in features), most others with Firefox - Chrome comes in,…

Autocomplete from Xi probably.

> If the guy examines Samsung Galaxy phones, it would almost be the same. This is just guessing. If I have to bet, I'd as well bet that Google/Samsung/ISPs/Everyone is spying on yo…

Comparing is not judging or blaming. The GP suggests that both TPB and Google are in a gray area, which I partially agree with, but I think they are in different gray areas. TPB, a…

Personally, I think unit tests shine best when you're designing an API. I can swing from hate to love and back about TDD in minutes, but when it comes to thinking about how your co…

I read the article, but I haven't read the study. The article seems to show that the study is useless - it proves nothing, it's neither pro-TDD, nor anti-TDD. Taking a seemingly st…

This is starting to sound dangerously close to doxing (esp. if anything found is shared), even if it's out of pure curiosity.

Can you please elaborate on that? As of now, it sounds like you left behind everyone you knew in order to change how your taxes are spent.

I guess it's a list that blocks similar things that are "under" ads and only show when you block ads. Soon, sites will just start adding more stuff to be revealed once you block th…

I think the comparison got a bit diluted, because the initial mention of a 100 threshold sounds like "pretty much anyone", while LaDue comes out more like a 50 threshold or at leas…

While joesoap's comment on the article page is hilarious, it made me think - are there any technological issues to providing (nearly) real-time low-res video feed? It would be scie…

It feels like your last sentence defines what _why was, a beautiful creation.

> Microsoft pays around $100 for every Xbox One system-on-chip to AMD I think someone forgot to account for manufacturing costs, hence the error in the calculations. The savings wi…

It is either complying with the censorship or being entirely banned from the country. Perhaps by keeping presence they may help slowly change things. I know it's entirely a busines…

Besides the second-class feeling that others mention, those hopes of release in other countries rarely become reality.

Did you just create an account to say a half of a negative sentence? o_O

I find constructs like isAwesome() && alert("yay"); confusing as well, but in our codebase it's pretty much standard to use a simple falsy check like 'callback && callback()' for o…

And I finally found a good reason to close my account. Thank you.

Now I hope for a follow-up post that explains what the east cost problem was.
