I thought we preferred the alliteration "Winzigweich".

It is not. Quake had "Excellent" for two kills in short succession, but nothing else if you chained kills after that.

I have been working with the Tink API recently as well and wasn't super impressed. Maybe it was our use case, but I noticed a few gaps in their documentation and am not a big fan of how they handle permanent users. Then we had to integ

What are you talking about? Ever since the first big Munich cohort, Germany has done extensive testing and scientists like Dr. Drosten have confirmed multiple times that we've been testing from a very early point on and are probably cl

Regarding your question about if we might accidentally test for flu or other, already existing corona virii: This was a topic of discussion in yesterday's talk [1] with Dr. Drosten, a virologist who played an important part in the deve

Interesting, I didn't know that. What's the legal status of a cyclist on the road then? Are they normal participants in traffic? I generally find the tone of the discussion about cyclists here surprising. I'm from Germany, an

Huh, so you paid for the road and the cyclist didn't? I'm not an American, but I don't think there's a road tax for car owners in the US.

Blendle is nice in theory but their article pricing is really off-putting. I know that it's the publisher's choice to set prices for individual articles, but I'm not going to pay half of the actual paper price to read one sin

It's interesting to see how no one even seems to try. In Europe there's Blendle [1], but that's only an aggregator and you still have to pay for each article you read (with hilarious differences in pricing). I've always

I was looking at buying an ultrabook and had the same problem (but living in Germany). In the end I decided on a Lenovo X1 Carbon, though, but faced the decision to either get one from the Lenovo store (which allows you to get a US keyboard

I don't think "You don't know JS" is good for a beginner, either. It delves very deep into some JS core mechanics and explains them with a lot of foo/bar/baz code that a beginner can hardly relate to since he&#

I've always been baffled by the absence of lookbehinds. Made a lot of regex searching unwieldy, so I'm glad they finally added it together with named capture groups.

Can anyone comment on the quality of the books? A lot of the covered topics are of interest to me (Docker, nginx, git) but I'd like to know if those books are worth the read.

I think it's more a reaction to a usage pattern of their star system. YouTube abandoned their five star rating system citing that most people voted only 1 or 5 stars with almost nothing in between. [1] I'd guess a vast amount of N

Well, YouTube abandoned its 5 star rating system citing that almost everyone votes either 1 or 5 stars [1]. It might be that that Netflix is seeing a similar usage of their voting system, so it would make sense to instead implement a like&#

To be honest, I don't think that NodeSchool intends to give a primer on how to build a production-ready balance manager. They want to teach the basics of JS, that's all. I agree, though, that those learning services give the impre

Yep, same problem trying to get the free tier here in Germany: I have to create a business account. Well, no GCP for me. I hope they reconsider this unfortunate restriction.
