Mermaid CEO is probably the coolest title I've ever heard

I think the internet has caused an uptick in people who make free speech seem like a bad idea tbh

So this dude is just a fucking sellout.

When Elon Musk

How?? This is insane. Dark Souls is the most absurdly plain and boring looking game that ever somehow defined a genre.

tl;dr - the secret to learning is to learn

"Work" and "jobs" are two very different things. We need action towards results . We do not need 16 hour workdays .

Lost me here - "Tiago Forte (the original creator of the second brain concept)" Ugh, no. No, no, no. Tiago isn't doing anything original. Tiago has never done anything original. Th…

Language is fuzzy. Every word you say is a theory that carries with it everything you know about a word. "Red" may bring to mind the color. It may bring to mind anger. It may bring…

Totally. This also applies to really anything with the "-er" suffix, which lead us to treat objects as "data" and "things that act upon that data". This often shows up in code as "…

This is pretty accurate. I'd also throw in "Don't use static functions" and "Write declarative code". Honestly, I think getting rid of public getters and setters goes a LONG way to…

Every once in a while I see this article, and every once in a while I fear that junior programmers are going to read it as if it is at all accurate. This is a great article that re…

I'd like to see a separation of Science and State, much like we have with religion except maybe actual separate.

Hmm, it seems like you made this repo to sell a book.

1) Build a database 2) Begin the slow, painful, arduous process of adding them to it.

The problem, as I see it, is that positive impact on a large enough scale that matters requires orchestration that we aren't equipped for as just software developers. The beauty, t…

Prototype!

Companies that don't value these practices exist. They're everywhere. That's no excuse not to sharpen your skills, but hopefully it'll help you rest a little easier. That said, the…
