First off, I agree with the point made, though I think a more reasonable comparison would be something like a subaru. The people I know who have to deal with excessive snow or mud …

> 100% remote is also a tough ask. I've noticed increasingly job roles are listed as 2-3 days in the office as companies awkwardly transition back to the office. Keep in mind that …

I keep the two halves separate. I was a studio recording engineer for about 7 years. I switched to software, and now I work in industrial global logistics. Job attributes I optimiz…

My reasons for initially dismissing it is because to me it felt like it was taking the fun part of the job. We have all these tasks, and writing the code is this creative act, desi…

I do this with my friends sometimes. It’s definitely fun. But it’s even more low-key than what the author describes. There’s no big group chat or lighting talks, which would be wei…

We tried homeschooling a few times. We were honest with ourselves and determined we were not that great at it. Sure, we could improve. But one of the primary factors in where we ch…

I have a Gen 1 Nest. Is it common for them to brick if you connect them to the internet?

Yep, didn’t realize this was unknown by enough web developers to warrant an article.

All over the world, including the United States.

For the longest time I railed against the fact that I am mortal, and my time is finite. I wanted to squeeze everything I could into my days, and I would feel guilty about projects …

The human performance at the bottom of the page was nice. But you can also give a great musician a zipper and paper bag and they can make it sound nice. It’s just like LLM generate…

I love when I find new SFAs (single file app)

Umm. What.

> And if I’m struggling, as someone who’s not burdened by having children to take care of or even not having the most demanding job or hours to make ends meet, I have no idea how o…

I had surgery for a torn meniscus repair. I’m on the couch for a least another month. I’m using this precious expanded free time to compose music, my primary form of artistic expre…

I remember seeing this a while back. That typesetting is beautiful. Thank you for bringing it up here, I might have to pick that one up. I’ve been bored with building line-of-busin…

Also- getting cold symptoms and simply not acknowledging that it could be covid doesn’t make it not covid.

Constraints are not too crazy of a concept. It’s not much different than say, writing a traditional Schoenberg style 12-tone composition. You would create your tone rows and then w…

Or, if even $300 seems steep for a computer to use for just some windows software, go to a used computer shop. I picked up my daughter’s Thinkpad for like $150 Edit: sorry, missed …

A crappy app that solves a problem would be an upgrade in a lot of cases, rather than a company engineering a problem to justify an app that’s been created.

Apologies if this is wasn’t a valuable comment. Earlier it didn’t occur to me that the comment about having to turn their phone sideways might not be sarcasm.

I thought what they called ugly was pretty clean.

lol! I only type that when something literally makes me laugh out loud. Thank you, this comment made my morning.

Yes, I agree, it reads like an ad. But I did in fact find it inspiring. For all I know, maybe it is a targeted ad. I am a software engineer at a large company. I was selected and f…
