    This is a hilarious comment because windows ignored the developer experience for YEARS with its horrible command line experience. Windows was a regression. Linux/unix, which powers…

    I found the person who doesn't have kids. Nothing about helping someone better understand something is cheating. Helping your own child? That is just natural. I find what you said …

    You make it sound so ... unaccomplished ... to just reach out and get a high paying "easy" job. Do they exist? I have yet to find an "easy" high paying job. I've been stuck in the …

    Is this what passes for an article about metaprogramming in ruby? Using send is extremely common especially when mocking private methods in rspec. I guess I am speaking from a rail…

    Now that lsp is a first class citizen in neovim is very usable with little modification. It will never be a ctrl+p install away from feature X system though. You do have to put som…

    Regarding burnout I know individuals in the medical field who wish they could control their schedules by reducing the number of clients per day, but they simply are not allowed to …

    I use pop os and for some nearly insanity level reason highlighting is VERY janky. It often looses focus, switches the start point, completely becomes unavailable, and generally ha…

    I love it. In fact I haven't turned on my PC with the intent to play games since I bought the deck. I highly recommend it particularly if you have a busy schedule and want to be ab…
