Good for them and the parents.

None of that stuff would be possible without government. It's a statism run amok. It's the same story every time. Something works relatively OK (US health care before 20 century bi…

Good example why using HTMX is usually a great idea. You can do your joins right there in the DB, it's easy and natural. SPAs are only a good idea if you ignore all the complexity …

I like KDE on technical level, but I can never fully reproduce the Gnome's "Meta key/hot right upper corner expose" flow, which really grew onto me over the years. Also, last time …

Why didn't Madoff just slow down to pay off the ponzi during the good times?

Do you apply the same reasoning when government tells you something else that is obviously true and good advise, e.g. to wash your hands after you used a restroom?

It comes down to misleading people really. The act of creating a cryptocurrency is never a scam in itself, but how people try to get other people to use/buy into it can often is (e…

Agreed. Apple has a full right to collect as much money as it can from users of the platform they've built and maintain. I wish the cut was more like 50%, to benefit my stocks, whi…
