It's been years since, but I too had brain zaps coming off of it. It took a few months for those to go away. I tried to describe it to my doctor and he seemed like he never heard of it before and sort of look at me like I was crazy, or

I think what you're describing is wisdom, as described in the Serenity Prayer: "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

In .NET, I think Dapper comes closest to what you are describing. It does the object mapping, but you still write the queries as SQL. https://github.com/DapperLib/Dapper

It's not news to me. I wonder if this could be related to these recent privacy related changes. https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/updates-to-gi...

If your code is "co-authored by Copilot", does that then allow future AI to train on it without your consent?

In typical Microsoft form, they locked further comments on the GitHub PR.

Why did you lock the comments on the GitHub issue? (Edit: I meant to say PR, not issue...)

Except developers run docker compose locally all the time. And even if I am just using Excel, my work still deserves to be respected by the operating system.

Are you suggesting that because I consider stars, I must be a freeloader?

Ironically, when your identity is tightly coupled to opposing a thing you hate (Capitalism in your example), you feel personally threatened by a potential solution to it.

I love how the author thinks developers write commit messages. All joking aside, it really is a chronic problem in the corporate world. Most codebases I encounter just have "changed stuff" or "hope this works now". It&#x

The thing is, falling down (ie. failing at things) can take a lot out of you, physically, mentally, financially, spiritually. For most of us, taking calculated risks is better than simply taking more risks. And the risk calculation changes

Touched a nerve I guess. Care to elaborate? I also knew people who had MUD addictions. These were very similar to how in later years people became addicted to Second Life or EverQuest and essentially dropped out of society. I don't kno

I am sure IRC was good for some people, but I can say for me personally it was a net negative and real life was so, so much better. I wish I never used IRC. I also personally witnessed multiple friends who dropped out of college due to IRC

I don't see how people use social media apps with notifications turned on. I just disable all notifications and it doesn't bother me to have LinkedIn because I only open it when I feel like it. Same with Facebook, etc. Incredibly,

Not impossible, just more difficult to guess. "Security through obscurity" isn't really good enough.

It sounds like there were two separate problems: The first was that 123456 was the credentials for the admin panel. The second was an insecure direct object reference, where the lead_id querystring parameter can be changed on an API call to

I wasn't trying to be hyperbolic actually. I really would be happy if an exit would happen in 10 years. Thankfully, I can be patient, but I wonder sometimes if some of these companies will ever exit.

6 years? As an LP, I would be excited for liquidity in 10 years at this point. It seems like even for successful companies, there isn't a clear path to an exit for many of them. Add to that the increase in late-stage investors, and t
