I do agree with the common refrain, actually, and disagree with the idea that work can be so big and complex that it has to be in one pull request. > A big queue of PR's for reviewers to review Yes, yes please. When each one is smal

By my reading, the outrage is likely coming from the cushioned stereotyping from the podcast participant. They're stating that "neckbeard types" and autists aren't customer-ready and are uncomfortable talking with custom

It doesn't matter, if my employer would treat me as interchangeable anyway. And even interchangeable employees deserve reasonable accommodations. I do think a union can highlight those needs more effectively than individuals (especiall

Possibly, at least for my own experience. It's much less often that I rerun a search with !g. Brave Search's results are becoming more relevant to my own queries, and Google's becoming less so. Not to mention how ads like to

GitHub should monitor their status page traffic for spikes, which probably mean something is wrong somewhere, even if they themselves haven't noticed yet.

My favorite project ever in undergraduate was getting these glasses to work with a PC. We got the specs (pun intended) from online resources and a how-to VR book published at the time (mid-90s). My partner designed / assembled the circ

Sticking with the analogy, there are still others who suffer while one person is punished with jail time or otherwise. If the single earner in a household is locked up, their family suffers in many ways. If they happen to run a business, th

It's interesting to think about "jailing" an entire company for its crimes. After all, in some legal (US) ways, a corporation is considered a person. If a company is found guilty of committing some crime, penalize it in an an

This sounds like a variation of Brooks's Law - adding people to a late software project makes it later. In this case, now you need to take time to help the new resources ramp up, and the new resources themselves can't make meaning
