Draconian policies...but not security ones? Why were USB drives not blocked?

This is not exactly true; the system _used_ to have a geographic component but SSNs issued since 2011 are random. (Granted, most people here with an SSN should be older than that.)

1. Yes, as with many "rules" in language there are exceptions. I would find it a bit odd to refer to a baby as "it" in (current) English, though I do admit there are some situations where it wouldn't feel as out of

> the one reviewing it will need to check what pronouns are used in the rest of the documentation to make sure the style is consistent Huh? Nothing in a software project will ever be perfect – code or docs — so this doesn't seem l

Languages hold complexity in different areas, but that doesn't make it artificial . Grammatical gender (and noun classes more generally) may seem redundant, but redundancy in language is quite common. It helps disambiguate, as it turn

What about the Rust community is not welcoming? Ruby has had its fair share of community controversies, so that's an odd choice for comparison.

Doesn't Amazon/AWS use this very heavily? Whenever we have to get on a call with AWS engineers it's through Chime. As a product, it seems fine. I'm not entirely sure it's an area AWS really needed to have a compet

I've gotten both novels and textbooks from Amazon that I'm not certain aren't counterfeits. (The textbook one is especially fuzzy, as sometimes you'll actually get an "international edition" which isn't ne

What is "the drama"? Are you referring to something besides this announcement?

They said it was stored with Git LFS, so it's just a pointer in the repo, not all 80 MB.

Why do you call out bzlmod? I haven't heard great things about it.

Comparing the recent news from Harvard to the long-running scandal at Stanford doesn't seem like a fair comparison.

It's important to note though that the _actual_ touch targets for keys are influenced by what you've already written. You can miss the key from a visual perspective but still end up with the right letter as a result.

I thought a camel's gait is much closer to two legs moving almost at the same time. Granted, I don't see camels often. Out of curiosity can you explain that more?

Why do you think the luxury buildings are a "big issue"? People who can move into those buildings will move into them. This frees up the lower priced apartments they previously (or otherwise would have) inhabited.

I just ran into this earlier today - it makes navigating code with grep more difficult. I had a YAML file using `some_property_name`, which was turned into `SomePropertyName`, and it's a small annoyance. It's not a huge deal, but

Oh no, this is truly a valuable (though somewhat niche) open source project, too.

How is that related to coding bootcamps? Is it just a general dig in the direction of anything Caliornian?

This is why UUID v7 is better to start with. The author also compares to Stripe tokens, which is a strange comparison as you can see they also have a time component towards the beginning.

Are your per-machine branches mostly distinct, or do they share a lot? I use https://github.com/thoughtbot/rcm and I find my dotfiles share _quite a bit_ in some respects (e.g. neovim config) but are drastically differ

What is that helping, exactly? Most people have no idea what distinction that's drawing. The Wikipedia article says an ETS event is imperceptible to humans. This was not imperceptible.

I didn't think Helix supported plugins, and I don't see any mention of it in the documentation. What language does it use? (Edit: I see a bit of Scheme in the GitHub repo, but to call them "plugins" are a bit of a stretc

They're also using sticker pricing, which as we know is likely far from what they actually paid. (And the rest of the argument sounds a lot like our former employer with their...choice of document DB :) which I'll defend too!)
