Had to do the same with halo infinite at my friends house, tried to use some burner emails and it kept banning our 2nd player within a few minutes. Gotta love the digital future.

This comments spot on. Coming from a guy that used to do mobile professionally as a one man show where the company had multiple apps and multiple stacks. I had the least pain from the ionic stack which I guess is a happy middle ground, but

I thought the door frame thing was actually not a good idea? The mantra nowadays is drop, cover and hold on. Which might actually put you in a more precarious situation during said quake.

Reading this on the toilet now wondering what my priorities would be if there was a quake in the next couple minutes.

If youre on Android you can use newpipe, and just see all your subscriptions together sorted by time uploaded. You can still have it autoplay their default algorithms which seems to work just as good as a personalized one.

Anecdotally, I have not found much correlation between age and management style. I have had bad managers of all ages! I have had one good manager though, and it's pretty obvious what made them great. First is they listen to what proble

The question is really more do they actually act on the feedback on a regular basis?

I have been able to pick up a handleful of useful domains like firstnamelastname.net without much effort and my total spend every year on domains is probably less than 50$. Maybe a dotcom is hard to come by but other TLD are not so bad. You

If you are subject to more corporate performance review shenanigans it feels like anything less than 10x performance is insufficient to upper management. Maybe you will even be subject to something as unhinged as being told not to rate all

A heavily nested widget can be a little sore on the eyes. You can break up heavily nested widgets into multiple widgets though. This is also common to JSX though so not sure what the "abominable" comment is referring to.

Flutter is an awesome developer experience and would probably also make sense for small team that needs to support many platforms. I think I would target flutter if I had to support desktop OS. React-native would probably be preferable if y

That's the possibility I'm wondering about. I wasn't really imagining they would pretend it was posted by someone you're following but surround it with some Sponsored content message that made it clear they injected it

I think it needs a help/about page perhaps, or some hint about what it is. I think some random person landing here wouldn't know what they are looking at. I appreciate that you will let me create a password that is 500 characters

I try to pick 10 or so things a day I can actually get done. That does help me feel like I accomplished at least a little bit.

I do throw things into various priority lists and categories, but it still makes me sad that I won't get around to some of them for months or years

How large a market share does a company need to be a monopoly? Search seems like more of an oligopoly, is there a legal definition of market size for something to be a monopoly or is it more of a case by case thing? I'd say youtube is
