    I tried eM Client for last week.. and, nope. Not my thing. - Cannot select which email to look at "next" after a delete - Does not display number of item in the current mailbox (li…

    Interesting points, all. But - you don't need to run an old machine to test software. If you are writing mobile apps, then your dev machine is irrelevant, get the best one you can.…

    When did software engineers adopt this "cheapest is best" strategy? - Only use free ides - Cheapest computers - Get it free, blah blah I'm a Software professional - most reading th…

    What Chat system are you using? - "one line at a time" -- what?? No chat system I use works like this. You get a paragraph, even a whole page, with notes, images, etc.. all at once…

    I use Tabnine - https://www.tabnine.com/ It supports multiple LLM's and it has it's own internal one, and it can be secure for a company and their codebase, unlike the generic Open…

    I train my team on how to resolve this. Every team member is able to resolve a force push onto a branch they have local. Also, we tend to avoid having multiple people work on the s…

    I take all "WIP" branches and rebase them as needed onto the 'latest' development. Any continued work on those branches will have to be compatible with all released code, so deal w…

    I've looked at the "arguments" for not rebasing and reject them. I've never once thought 'oh shit, I wish I had not rebased that'. Keeping things neat in the repo has gained me far…

    Is there a "proper way" to attribute information on the internet? And, in a comment forum? I clearly stated the source as perplextity.ai. In fact, perplexity includes actual source…

    Well, thank you for "oversimplifying it" But, the existence of a 3rd party app store, with "zero cost" to developers apparently, would almost certainly force someone in need of an …

    I agree, but I'm just pointing out that this fine is outrageous, and, basically almost equal to total sales in the EU.

    I did read that, and I think it is OUTRAGEOUS. I'd call it criminal, but these thugs in the EU have no moral character.

    Comment #39818153

    Estimated annual sales of iPhones in EU are about 12.4M phones in Q4 2023. If you just do quick math, that is 49.6M phones/year. If you pick an ASP of $800 (??) then that would be …

    I did. Perplexity updates daily. Better than "googling" these days. At least I attributed it. Don't like the stats, find better ones, or contradicting ones.

    I just memorize it. Write it on a small sticky and hid it somewhere for a period of time until the master is memorized.. then destroy it. you could write it on that flame paper the…

    I use git rebase all of the time. We rebase all features onto develop. Develop is then merged --ff-only into stage/release, etc. Which is then merged --ff-only into main/master, an…

    I'm one of those people that can't stand Microsoft. I don't agree with everything Apple does, but I generally like the direction. The best thing M$ ever did was add WSL2 to the OS.…

    This is the best response so far. "What can I learn from this" -- brilliant. And, this line, double brilliant: ``` I’ve genuinely seen that the most intelligent & successful people…

    You know, "tax the rich" only puts more money in the hands of the government and the government bureaucrats. Those people are as corrupt as they (people) come. They are certainly n…

    I'm pretty sure this is a generational thing as well. Younger engineers are used to just "google it", or "watch a youtube video" and you are suddenly an expert in whatever you want…

    I did the same thing. I'd always try and read ahead so I had read the material BEFORE the teacher covered it. This was an immense help in understanding. Seriously, it helped so muc…
