    Exactly, his weirdo vibe works because he pairs it with an incredible love for music and respect for the artists he speaks to. I think Drake said it best in the hourlong interview …

    I agree with all of this advice, and would just add that if you find yourself turning in PRs that then need some changes before they can be merged, a strategy that worked for me ea…

    I don't think there are stupid questions or even poorly worded questions. Even "bad" questions like "It's not working, help!" are a learning and a teaching opportunity, which I thi…

    As someone who also remembers Garfield being funny as a kid, I don't read the OP as saying it was never funny, but that being funny was a secondary concern to Davis after being mar…

    I created a similar task at my company as the parent commenter, building a small frontend to an existing API that can be completed in a couple of hours. There's no time limit for t…

    Totally unacceptable ask in my opinion, for reasons many people have touched on. I would also add that even from the company's point of view, it's a bad deal to ask you to work. Th…

    You've got it exactly right. It's something you need someone else's help with, and ideally you can just go ask them for help.

    I totally agree with the idea that teams should remove blockers as they come up. If someone on my team runs into a blocker 10 minutes after the standup, I hope for everyone's sake …

    I'm a team lead and every single person on my team has told me they feel much more productive and able to focus since lockdown and 100% remote work started. One of the people on my…

    I'm curious what you think makes this particular account a bot? To me it looks like someone who might not be particularly tech savvy who signed up for Twitter to find out about and…

    It is kind of funny to compare that early example of a notification, which was likely novel and rare enough to actually be exciting, to today's onslaught of notifications where at …

    Without any further details I would suggest that this is entirely a communication issue and not one of code quality. "Good code" is not really something that can be defined, and le…

    I always thought it was very strange to call them "sprints" since in my experience you start one immediately after finishing another. In real life following sprinting with more spr…

    This is great, thank you for posting this. It seems like a good counterpart for Dark Patterns [1], though these examples are simply very confusing design choices rather than outrig…

    Awesome to see pen plotter stuff posted here with more frequency. This project is pretty amazing in its frugality, kudos to the author. I have another pen plotter and I'd highly re…

    I was pretty astonished, reading the original article, that a poker game would allow having RFID chips in the cards in the first place. It makes sense from the POV of wanting to st…

    The article mentions the lack of drinking fountains due to the plumbers' strike, but not the fact that they only had the capacity to hook up either the bathrooms or the water fount…

    Ok, got it, thanks for the explanation :) I also really enjoyed the exploration and social aspect of the early part of the game back then, I quit when that was over and seemed as i…

    I haven't played WOW since the first version, which I guess is "classic" now. I'm wondering what the draw would be for something like this, as I assume the current version of the g…

    I used this list as a starting point when I went to Japan last year, ended up visiting a few of the ones on the list and a couple of other "music bars" as well, including a hip-hop…
