Seeking Arrangement's landing page[1] now proudly displays the Vanity Fair logo. I think that's a fair assessment. [1] https://www.seekingarrangement.com/

As somebody who uses Dvorak, don't learn an alternative keyboard layout. It makes pair programming, and more generally using other people's computers, an unnecessary pain. More imp…

According to Wikipedia[1], Millennials are those born between 1980 and 2000. That would make a 16 year old barely a Millennial. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials

In all fairness, parent's username is shallowpedantic.

Pretty telling that nobody on the set can read Arabic.

I've got a feeling that the Reddit community won't be too keen on this, mostly seeing it as another news organization "stealing" their content. IMO a good way to get users behind t…

Is there any reason that this wouldn't be able to work with another language? If the interface is an HTTP port, it seems like this isn't necessarily tied to Common Lisp.

You have to manually specify the folders you want shared in the arguments to the command. For example, running this: docker run -v /tmp/:/host-tmp/ ubuntu:14.04 bash -lc "echo 'TES…

Great, and I don't want to dismantle the TSA, I just want to have a backdoor to the plane.

> Data persistence support is not out-of-the-box. This is actually not the case. Although containers do not share any persistent volumes with the host by default, you can use the -…

This is pretty neat. We do our deployment coordination via Slack, and use a listener to parse messages from the channel to see if a delevoper validated their changes. I'm now very …

I have had the opposite experience in the Haskell community. Hell, /r/haskell even started a AMA for new Haskellers[0] this week, and all I see is pleasant replies. [0] https://www…

What makes you think parent is trolling?

I'm really not a fan of the keyword argument feature in Ruby, especially after using ES6 for a good number of projects. It's essentially a special-case of variable destructuring th…

Common Lisp also has destructuring-bind[0], although its not provided with every implementation. [0] https://www.cs.cmu.edu/Groups/AI/html/cltl/clm/node252.html

In addition to slowing the production of money, the URV program essentially tied wages to the inflation rate. To me, that seems like a fundamentally important step in both restorin…

I'm curious, do people generally feel that smartwatches are the way of the future? I can't really imagine that a device with a screen the size of a thumbnail outperforming a smartp…

I can't speak to this framework, but you do not need to use server-side rendering for React applications. Instead, you can essentially serve a blank page on every request, then hav…

I would argue that React is a declarative style as well, the difference between it and the above example being that JS is far more expressive than HTML.
