    Not who you responded to, but water usage only matters in areas where water is a scarce resource, yet I live next to one of the great lakes and constantly hear about how we should …

    If you add one of these type checkers into your CI or a pre-commit hook, it provides the same guarantees you get from a compiler along with the same tooling benefits. It gives you …

    Funny thing is that it wasn't too late. Netflix was weeks away from running out of money because blockbuster was eating their lunch, but then blockbuster killed dvd by mail because…

    It probably depends pretty heavily on your workflow. MacOS is designed around doing things visually with a trackpad. If you don't want to work that way, you're just out of luck, be…

    And for my area it is very high. I live in a cheap midwest town and according to this, the difference between here and San Francisco is only 30k a year.

    You do realize that it's possible to ask AI to write code and then read the code yourself to ensure it's valid, right? I usually try to strip the pointless comments, but it's not t…

    Are you serious? The people most pushing for this are precisely the ones trying to raise a family.

    That's literally the opposite of what this documentation is explaining. System containers exist. You can run the entire userspace of an OS (including systemd) in a container.

    If it actually is stronger than a simple request, I could see saying "an ask" as a way of demanding using softer language. If your boss were to say "I demand ...", everybody is goi…

    How is a "PR comments" commit useful to you? If I'm looking at history, it's usually to see: 1. What caused a bug 2. Context around a feature and why it was written a certain way S…

    Rewriting history on main is bad. Rewriting history everywhere else is completely normal and should be encouraged. I don't want your "oops typo LOL" commits in main. I don't want a…

    There are occasional things that might cause us to work an evening or weekend here or there or spend a week or two working more like 50-60 hours a week to meet a deadline. As long …

    I once worked for a company with a name like CompanyCloud and wound up sending an email to a customer saying I worked for CompanyButt. That was an embarrassing day.

    You'd probably have a lot better luck with Ubuntu or something that isn't rolling. Rolling and bleeding edge distros like Arch have a tendency to break more often when updating.

    Reductio ad absurdum is a great way to prove or disprove your point is valid.
