Without experience, programming with AI (vibe coding, I guess) can be compared to being a rat in maze... You work your way through a project, but the dead-ends exact a high cost in terms time, attention, and ultimately cost. With experience

User experience is inversely proportional to piracy. Every time I have to login using a code, not only am I annoyed that I once again after to re-enter my uid/pwd despite being a paying customer, I'm also reminded I'm paying

Costco is the best! In addition to having a great curated product selection that one can trust, they appear to treat their employees well as they always have a great attitude and top-notch customer service.

Such an under-appreciated feature by macOS users and devs alike.

Nothing quite like a site titled "Better Science" with the disclaimer: "While I understand the basics of a clinical trial, I’d like to point out that I am no medical scientists. Most of the issues here were spotted by other p

Wow, you all are really taking this fact hard. It's ok -- I know was shocked when I first heard this back in high school. Reading thru the comments, it sounds like New Jersey has great parental benefits, but you will be sharing them wi

I love a good, "X Nordic Country provides Y for FREE -- so should the United States!" Where Y is some socialized benefit. Let's put this in perspective: Finland's population is around 5.5 million people. That's some

Very interesting. There’s certainly something to this associative memory phenomenon. Case and point. I stumbled across this on accident, by listening to the radio while commuting to work in the morning. Some shows repeat themselves througho

Thank you -- this had to be said. Political discourse is useless here in this echo chamber.

And still no native calculator for iPad. Oh well, maybe they'll squeeze it in next year. Imagine the cheers and adulation that'll bring from the WWDC keynote audience...

And don't get me started about removing the glowing apple logo on the back of the screen. No reason for it -- now the back of the MBP looks just as shitty and cheap as every other craptop on the market.

I refuse to buy the new MBPs for corporate use. Just keep buying the older model. The new one is an unmitigated, overreaching, disaster. Oh and BTW, if Apple discontinues the older MBP, I will NEVER buy a MBP with a Touch Bar. Utterly ridic

Isn't this kind of how evolution works? Nature is just running its course -- nothing much to see here.

Stop with the 2016 nonsense... get a grip. Death is the next baby-boomer surge. Because there are so many celebrities in this group, we'll see daily death announcements in the coming years that will make 2016 look like a picnic.

We can -- let's start with a population the size of Finland. The State of Colorado has about the same # of people -- a great place to start! Think critically before you toss out the old argument: The U.S. should do X, just like Y; wher

Resource verbs in POST URLs are almost always a bad idea. You POST a command via the body to the resource and should expect a result in turn. Though I do understand the idea that URLs with verbs allow the API to be self describing via links

I applaud the effort and your curiosity. Any good tunes on that stream? Perhaps you're working on a remix?

Loyal user for 10+ years. Apple is getting old and their apps, particularly iTunes, have transformed into an atrocity.

When it comes to code readability, and ultimate reusability, I believe renaming variables is where most time refactoring is best spent. Not only does it encourage better naming, but if the naming or paradigm model is off, it encourages bett

Building systems, specifically software systems, is all about creating analogies. OO lends itself well to this reality.
