Hmmm. And I wonder who bought all that NVDA today and what's suddenly so compelling about the price. Certainly couldn't be someone in government trying to pin the NDX100 index.

Cowardly acquiescence to any political ideology is disgraceful, and that's exactly what this was.

They could have expressed themselves in a way that aligns with your sensibilities, but they exercised their freedom of expression. I personally found that additional detail to be v…

Ironically, I just spent a day last weekend writing my own version control system for large files I dislike git-annex that much. - it converts your files into blobs and bloats your…

Yeah, maybe read the article. Maybe see pictures of the subject of the article. Then tell me that symbology connects to a collective movement for exploited migrants.

What did my post say? Did it reference "this symbology" OR did it reference "Chicano culture" in the following statement: "Everyone knows (including the Vietnamese barber) the deep…

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Surfingkeys https://github.com/brookhong/Surfingkeys . I switched over from Vimium a couple years ago. I think its more performant than Vimium an…

If I don't do anything about this, I am the problem. Government is us. Our responsibility to design, implement, and hold accountable. Talking about what happened isn't enough. Carl…

Challenge: Let's see if anyone with a username linked to their true identity can figure out a way to speak honestly about this without tanking their career.

What are your skills and what kind of roles have you been applying to? Your experience has been quite different from mine. Laid off 3 weeks ago, 4 offers at slightly below what I w…

Great name, TLD has zero impact from my perspective. I wouldn't fret about packaging - leave that to those who buy overpriced lattes because of the branding.

I hope he doesn't. Asking that question is the equivalent of walking up to someone and begging for money. I encourage developers here and elsewhere to reward each other for the fru…

Logically identical is not legally identical.

Why doesn't it matter?

It's not anger. It's jealousy. The same jealousy that's called "opinionated" in software development, but really means "Doing things differently than how I do them threatens me, be…

Everyone is terrified of stating the obvious. The police, the politicians, and the press won't carry out their jobs due to fear of reprisal...because the perpetrators are overwhelm…
