    I can't speak to the prevalence of this mentality, but it rings true for my consultancy. The idea of maximizing hours is absurd. We do everything we can to minimize hours, thus max…

    No need for dark mode if the canonical design is dark. I wish this was more prevalent.

    Vanguard ETFs are my jam: VOO, VXF, VGT, VTI, etc.

    How do you figure? I've been financing a car at ~3% interest for the past 4 years. My investments have returned triple that over the same period.

    I share your concern regarding text fields. That's the one area where I never want to mess with native behavior. The search results for "flutter ios text field copy paste" aren't e…

    > 1. Keep Coding Hardest pill to swallow, but it's mostly true. The old adage, "If you want something done right, do it yourself" is a subversive kind of fallacy, because it's half…

    Can't believe I've gone this long (2 years) without knowing about the `sls logs` command. It's life-changing.

    I've been using redux-zero on my latest projects with reasonable success. It does away with the distinction between actions and reducers, so you're basically just calling functions…

    I hope all of the bleeding-heart armchair economists in this thread see your post. They've clearly never worked these jobs they claim to value so much.

    DO NOT move to Seattle if you have any kind of seasonal-affective disorder, or you value seeing the sky.

    The city only gives back what you put in. It's an onion with enormous depth, and you have to dig. I guess she wasn't willing to put in the effort. It's definitely not for everyone.…

    The city does seem to be in constant flux, but there are plenty of landmarks. Griffith Observatory and the Downtown Library come to mind. The author sounds like she spent most of h…

    Distributed fairly evenly from K to 12, I enjoyed a handful of passionate teachers that conducted class in a more Montessori fashion, all at public schools. At the very least, they…

    I submit that a major, if not the primary reason for the Leaf's disappointing sales is its atrocious, shameful, ugly design. It honestly makes me wonder if Nissan wanted it to fail…

    I chose Ember in part to make use of its sibling framework, ember-data. Is there a relational model abstraction that integrates well with Angular?

    Funny you mention reinventing the wheel. YUI may have been around for just as long, but jQuery won the DOM abstraction battle years ago. Both Ember and Backbone depend on jQuery, i…

    The question wasn't about Windows. The single-app setting only works when you use the Dock to switch apps, not when you use Command+Tab. I would like to know if there's a way to af…

    Haxe is even better. Very similar to Actionscript but with more comprehensive type inference and generics, to be brief.
