The fact that the organization name and this repository hasn't been updated to reflect the discussion in that thread is telling. The author must just want to be able to add "create…

Why is this published in a GitHub org called "golang-standards"? As someone who has worked with Go for years in a professional capacity, more than half of these folders are not nec…

The first time I heard one of those “I can also” lines, I lost interest in ever purchasing an Alexa or frankly any Amazon home product. Shame the amount of engineering effort that …

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs... Why would you want to loop in a completely separate service when GitHub and Jira already have an integration availab…

Yeah this is the deal breaker for me as well. This smells like an embrace-extend-extinguish campaign frankly? 1. Embrace gRPC and protobuf 2. Extend with Connect, get everyone usin…

When I see posts like these, I immediately go to the company’s homepage to see what they’re trying to sell. One thing that stuck out to me was the “Our technology partners” section…

The pessimist in me is pretty confident that was the true purpose of this writing. Nonetheless, hope it pays off for them.

Web dev for many years chiming in: please step awayyyyy from the ugly solution. As another reply stated, you cannot guarantee pixel-perfect decision without sacrificing other aspec…

I’ve never seen ads. I believe the difference (and potential explanation as to why GP hasn’t seen any either) is that my account is through google workspace.

That post makes a ton of sense honestly. It is a shame but why wouldn’t Salesforce want their branding on it? Check out Vercel, Fly.io, or DigitalOcean depending on the complexity …

Based on Google’s documentation on supervised accounts [1], sounds like your child is/was under 13? They don’t have these checks in place for the fun of it. They’re usually legally…

Another option people may want to consider is hosting a version of Code Server[1]. I do this with my iPad Pro and it has been incredibly convenient. I even have it configured so th…

Former C1 employee here with a personal opinion. C1 is walking the walk; everyone up to the CEO is very tech-forward (which quite surprised me initially)

These sort of arguments are really tiresome. I’m absolutely a fan of engineering feats like these being made more accessible for educational purposes. Even in college, I built a NE…

I’ve been in this position myself. To be fair, you aren’t bootstrapping if you’re taking YC funds, right? They are seeking returns on this investment in the magnitude seen in previ…

I’ve owned macs for years and never once had any issue like that. I’d dig deeper than “it must be macOS”

I am a very satisfied Apple customer, but will gladly tell you that a Windows machine would make more sense for the use cases you’ve described.

Do not give notice to your current employer until you’ve passed all checks, signed all paperwork, and received your start date with the new employer. Any employer that expects othe…

C++ is still very much used, along with Python. These languages are generally used for the overwhelming majority of our backend services. JS/TS are used in the Terminal's view laye…

Came in here to say this. I helped many teams move from Java to Go, and came across this so many times. Everyone wanted to find the Spring equivalent for Go (or Django, Ruby on Rai…

This...this was Do Not Track..

Behind Facebook lay an event bigger threat to our democracy: a population lacking the educational foundation necessary to build informed opinions on issues by seeking and criticall…

I use both frequently, in and out of work. And I can’t state enough that people need to stop asking this question. These languages - I would throw Swift in there as well - are “app…

As someone who also takes all the right account security precautions, I too have been fooled by a scam Facebook ad. It seems like this is an increasingly-common attack vector that …
