I have to agree here, but I'm not sure why. I don't have any clue what makes something sound AI generated or not. I got to about here "Go is clearly working for a lot of people," -…

I had an itch to give Perl another go after a 5 year hiatus. I wanted a super simple way to spawn a proxy I was building in Go, along with writing various integration tests. I used…

At previous companies, I was more than happy to use corporate money to pay for software I believed in. Tools like Hashicorp Vault were certainly worth paying for the Enterprise tie…

Apple Card can also sometimes offer 3% like at Walgreens and you can also get 6 months of free Uber One. Another benefit of the Fidelity card is they reimburse your Global Entry or…

My naive opinion is a commitment to not break the ABI is a good thing not just for everyone else but for C++ as well. Languages like C#, Swift and Python (maybe even Rust?) have to…

Squares are not Rectangles anymore! In order for my new and improved Rectangle to talk to another really cool Rectangle, I have to resize one of my edges to fit nicely on the Squar…

Where I work we use Confluent Cloud who has their own proprietary UI. I've always found it to be lacking, hard to use and not very good. We substituted it with AKHQ https://akhq.io…

To be fair, Seattle's electric grid has been on all sustainable energy for a while now. Seattle is one of the greenest city in the U.S. On top of that, any person living in King Co…

My understanding, from whatever nature TV show when I was younger, is that the beetles don't actually die. They literally freeze in ice. I also remember reading that certain countr…

If you click to the site and go to the Software tab it talks about it being SteamOS with Proton etc.

I just went on a long trip and going on a couple more in a few months. The Tesla navigation will autopilot you to the charging stations making it a something you don’t even need to…

I kindly disagree with your critique. BUT I am also very biased. This is because I am an owner of a Model Y, but I do not own any stock in Tesla whatsoever. I do not like nor trust…

Ditto. To add to this, Pulumi has a few features not yet present in CDK like encrypted state, and dynamic resources. The TLS/Random provider also seems to be missing from CDK but p…

Great questions that must be asked, but it sounds like having huge amounts of excess carbon in the oceans might have a much greater impact than stealing a percentage of wave energy…

From what I read they weren't setup to host multiple apps and needed a somewhat large refactor to do that. The calendar on beta.protonmail.com is probably what will be released to …

It’s different for everyone and there’s multiple methods to meditation. To naively summarize, it’s kind of like counting sheep but instead of sheep you’re counting breaths. You tak…

I guess I'm confused. I clicked the link and read through it really quick. I didn't really have a lot of strong opinions. This seems to be a response to how powerful China is becom…

Many schools have programs to drop your kids off early. The same program is there to keep kids late. If kids are getting out of school at 2:00 pm then the kids are either home alon…

My mother works for a school district in California. There was an open hearing around moving the starting school time from 8:00 am to 7:00 am. There's been countless research showi…

Software engineer here. I wouldn't necessarily say this is specific to software engineers. But I do think individuals can make an impact in many ways. Using your money to purchase …

Vim user here. I use Vim for pretty much everything, but I do have Spacemacs installed purely for two modes: 1. Org-Mode 2. Regex Mode org-mode is just too good not to use. I use i…
