> Some people own a lot of guns and knowing exactly where they are at all times is just not feasible. If that's the case, they need to own fewer guns. I cannot think of many things…

Considering Japanese culture, I'm not surprised. This is what happens when you have super-conservative social values backed up by a strong pressure to conform. Few people are willi…

This kind of thing is exactly why my old boss went and created his own minimalist framework built around using native code: http://www.domxjs.com . Its explicit purpose is to allow…

No, but I might just dip in there for lunch. Why does it have to be taking a client out for fine dining?

One of the first things that made me realize this was watching an old interview with Steve Jobs. He'd be asked a question, and would just sit there, totally silent, for maybe 10-15…

Jesus, dude, OSS is not some kind of holy grail that renders it immune from all criticism, much less valid criticism. 1. I agree about the "you're free not to use it" line, but I f…

Yeah, there are a lot of "popular views" that are complete and utter nonsense

That's because twitter actually has content moderation policies in place that they do their best to apply. They're obviously not perfect, but again, the whole reason the app store …

Are you familiar with how publicly traded corporations work?

"People claim Twitter can't possibly moderate content at scale, except that Twitter makes money at that same scale." I'm sorry, but is that supposed to be a logical argument? Becau…

Truly a disingenuous argument. Parler didn't get TOS'd because they had things fall through their moderation process; they got TOS'd because they did not have a workable moderation…

There's more than one explanation as to why "mainstream media" might not run a story. The NY Post isn't exactly known as a bastion of credible journalism. That's why they ran the H…

See, and this is where I (and I'm guessing you) might beg to differ. I'm a web developer, so the vast majority of my time is spent working in JavaScript. Our team has been working …

Google is terrific at answering random questions compared to Siri, though. And I use my Alexa products for shopping lists. Not too long ago they added a feature where it tries to f…

Once you start playing the song once, you can generally say "repeat on" and it'll loop the song. YMMV depending on where the song is coming from.

Not in the USA, they don't. Not as long as the cops in question don't know for a FACT that their behavior violates established law - even if it DOES violate established law, they a…

Good to know developers have their own nonsensical conspiracy theories.

There's a big difference between job interviews and school interviews/oral exams, though.

Because then you don't have to pass a huge framework library down the wire along with all of your custom code? Look at it the other way, if you don't get a big advantage over web c…

I guess maybe you had a different experience than I did, because I never had web components "pushed" at me in any way. It was always a technology I was keeping my eye on but was he…

I've had an iPhone since Google Assistant really became a "thing," but I use my Google Home all the time to get answers to questions that I'm surprised it's able to parse, like "wh…

Yes, thank you. I don't know why "they have dependencies" is a valid criticism. Literally any complex thing where the developer didn't write 100% of the code has dependencies. Most…

Lit-HTML is a templating system that's baked into Lit-Element, which is basically the successor to the Polymer framework. It simply uses JS template strings, with a few little nice…

I mean, we're using web components to build large web apps at my workplace, and in my experience 95% of the dependencies of web components are... other web components. Which makes …
