I was in the interested cohort of long-term remote workers before COVID. One company I worked at attempted a hybrid remote experiment. It was awful at every level. Having half a business in-person and the other half remote creates a massive

Don't do it. Create a dedicated work Apple ID. I see no benefit but there's a clear risk.

Thinking in any capacity burns energy. The "harder" you're thinking/focusing, the more energy you burn. An interesting example is high-performing chess players: https://www.npr.org/2019/09/18&#x

Not the person you asked, but I've been doing the same for a few years. The cost of a PO box seems to vary based on the location (and even the location within the Post Office if it's large). I pay ~$110 per year for the PO box. My

That's a truly unbearable wiki layout. I can't be the only one seeing the irony of using an awful UI for a wiki about aesthetics? The default MediaWiki theme would have been a signifiant improvement.

I don't think this is new. I've seen ads on SO for at least the last 12 months (in Australia).

I can't agree more. React with purpose-build components is a great experience. The majority of my frontend headaches stem from using third-party components and making them work how I require.

That sounds really interesting. Do you have any book recommendations that explain this process (ideally targeted at a non-medical audience)?

I'm not Irish in any meaningful way (a great-great grandmother). I'm an Australian from a regional area. It's interesting that there's an overlap!

I don't think so. I host all my personal projects on either GitHub or GitLab (depending on build pipelines). The majority of my personal projects are private. I get zero benefit from the "social" coding aspects of either plat

Depending on the company size, I'd speak with the co-founders. One of them may be interested in buying back the shares. Otherwise, speak with your manger about disposing of the shares. Surely one of the existing investors would be inte

I'm in the same boat (replace backwoods hick with degenerate bogan). I visited two speech therapists about this, but both told me it's not their area of expertise (and subtly hinted that it's not a real problem that needs fix

I've been wondering the same for a few weeks but can't be bothered checking. My uneducated inference is that an oracle is a data source and you can hook into it from the smart contract. The oracle seems to live off-chain and live

I find "low code" much more palatable than “digital transformation”, but I still wish the concept had a better name and clearer borders (e.g do most people consider Excel low code?). I don't have a better name to offer, so I

I personally prefer Reddit as a non-SPA, but it's interface isn't _just_ the result of being a SPA. It takes serious effort to build an experience as horrible as new Reddit (especially if you attempt to view anything from a mobile

I agree 100% with avoiding compiled frameworks (React/Angular/Svelte, whatever). But betting on jQuery being around and functional in 10 years is a gamble. The modern DOM is very user friendly. I'd advocate for skipping any f

There are quite a few factors that would matter (e.g a 100% tech crowd is going to understand that youname.app is valid whereas a non-tech crowd might think it's yournameapp.com). Generally, I'd go with the below: 1. .com 2. sligh

I see this as a common sentiment, but I don't see it IRL. SPAs aren't a fad anymore; instead, they're the norm. Web development over the past 3 years has majorly stabilised compared to the last 10 as a whole. Want to work on
