While I can't comment on the stats, I do have a story. A long time ago I was working and living in SF. I had just finished work and was heading over to a nearby bar. I was waiting …

I remember having this realization as a kid. I was standing in my driveway and realized there was an unbroken road from me to the other side of the country (and beyond!). It was on…

Same here. I wrote a lot of code in my life but barely remember any of it. I do remember writing a 'madlibs' program as a kid and showing my family and being so proud. 100% the rea…

I actually visited Japan for the first time this year, amazing trip. While I can't answer I highly recommend https://www.reddit.com/r/JapanTravel/ as a source of research. Great in…

I really enjoyed this article. When I draw an architecture diagram, write documentation, code or really do anything at work I take a moment to try to make it look "nice". I can't e…

I honestly don't care about the whole API drama, but I've been looking to get off reddit for awhile now. I switched over to Lemmy and committed to a week of usage. It's rough aroun…

I'll focus on your question of how to move into a management. Or at least, my perspective. To get into management, you generally need experience in management. I know that sounds s…

This reminds me of a recent experience of mine. I was raised bilingual Greek and English (English is my primary language). For my entire life I heard both of these languages and us…

Years ago a friend of mine was considering a teaching job in North Carolina. She didn't want to travel alone so I agreed to come to keep her company. We got to the school, met the …

I really want to know the name of the sweet bread shown at the top of the article.

One major difference is that Costco requires a membership. It seems like a bad actor could be effectively banned.

While I don't know you or your dog - imagine for a moment if you could talk to your dog one last time and tell them the regret you feel. Do you think they would want you to regret …

I have refunded a number of items on steam for a number of reasons and all it took was filling out some online forms and waiting a bit. While I never spoke to a person I never had …

I have mentored a number of software developers from just starting their career to a decade+ long career. Nearly every time I open the debugger to help them work through an issue I…

You mentioned that 'the back of our tongue is sensitive to bitter'. I believe this is a myth. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongue_map

This is not an uncommon feature. The word I have used for this is 'facets' (unsure if its correct or not). Look at Gap.com for an example. For example click on "Men > Shop All Styl…

I actually just use dish soap. I do this with the most of my fruit/veg. Only takes a few moments and washes right off. Of note I do use no scent, fragrance free dish soap.

I love the concept of using text to create visuals. It greatly appeals to my sensibilities as a coder. The concept of being able to source control the data seems amazing in theory.…

I'm almost certain it is 'anti-homeless' features to keep people from sleeping there. See for examples - https://interestingengineering.com/15-examples-anti-homeless...

A key point in your process is that you have a conversation before the homework phase. The last time I was job hunting I would be given homework without ever having a chance to tal…

I experienced something very similar when presented with glasses to slightly correct my vision as a child. I found the world too sharp and distinct. When I looked at a tree each le…
