It’s common for someone in a flare of an IBD to be unable to eat vegetables without irritation. You should seek to understand the root cause of an individual’s experience instead o…

You can argue on the basis of principles that tourism is bad. The fact remains that tourism cannot be stopped cold-turkey without massive job loss as seen during covid. If you wish…

What’s your github username? I’d be interested in using that when it’s released.

The only time I go to see how ancient cultures lived without electricity and weaved their own clothes in in museums and tourist attractions. They’re also typically incredibly borin…

Neovim already can’t keep up by itself. The future of vim won’t be as a standalone application, but as a plugin into other IDEs. The support for Neovim and VSCodeVim within VSCode …

It does appear to only support Bloom, which makes it currently useless since there are much better models with fewer parameters that you can run on a single machine. However, the p…

If an engineer with 20 years of experience is intimidated by a new grad then that’s not ageism, and not what this thread is about. If a new grad performs better then there is liter…

You’re going to be bitter and resentful for a long time if you believe that the fact that you haven’t received a single consulting contract is due to big corporations working again…

The truth is that if they are without a job, then they aren’t highly qualified. A degree does not make someone highly qualified. Tech companies have always had trouble finding enou…

Good code quality doesn’t guarantee success. However, those two data points indicate it may be necessary if not sufficient. There are only 4-5 tech companies operating at that scal…

No, that’s what Siri says when it disables your alarm lol.

I hope you don’t believe you can’t infect people after 2 weeks. If so, you’re contributing to the pandemic and the spread of the virus through disinformation. If a patient ever dev…

This is a clear nefarious usage used to spread false information. It’s interesting to see the only one supporting this view be downvoted. It’s not clear if the downvotes are due to…

You still haven’t provided a reason why this is a bad thing. Ok, so there are unsuspecting users taking photos of the local YMCA facilities. What you’re talking about is similar to…

I believe that the author is mistaken in their judgment. Demand will rise since software is becoming more complex and difficult to maintain rather than easier. However, the closer …

A study never proves anything. A p-value only tells you how likely the results are by random chance. Presumably, the companies were chosen beforehand. It is unlikely to have happen…

Of course it is. When one approach is far more likely to introduce bugs, complicated interactions, and be more difficult to maintain, it is absolutely a reason to not take a partic…

You’re not looking beyond the most trivial services. Most complex applications are best designed and scaled through multiple services. For example, how do you handle long running a…

No one likes a poor customer experience. But businesses will always choose a poor customer experience over the risk of a business shutting down. That said, do you have any anecdote…

I didn't read the article. But to think that a more reasonable person would have left the company is exactly you should think. If someone jumps off a building due to not being able…

That attitude is a reflection of your internal perceptions. I got into all the companies mentioned and I chose Amazon as my first choice.

Are you in the Silicon Valley or Seattle? Location matters when you're talking about compensation numbers. If you're on a visa it also seems like your compensation could be less du…
