I've owned two editions of this book and when working on 3D graphics, this was the most useful book in filling the gaps of mathematical knowledge & understanding. One of the issues I had when learning 3D was that there are so many

Oh dear. Yet another article that reinforces conflicting messages and gives ammunition to whoever wants to be "in charge" of a product. No. This is not the authoritative model. It's written like this is what the industry has

Re: Stack Overflow, while I agree with you, most of my experience with SO downvoting has purely to do with other members thinking "I feel this is a stupid question so I will downvote you". Usually SO is a last resort for me once I

For me, I find woodworking and more specifically cabinet-making to be a very full-brain activity much like programming. It requires both left and right brain - technical and creative sides working simultaneously. It's become a joy and

It depends on your use case. If you're doing relatively straightforward image processing, e.g. resizing on the fly, absolutely Vips is amazing. Check out imgproxy, imaginary, etc. But for more complex workloads like producing product

Actually K8S itself as a standard is not complex/hard. If you are a developer and user/consumer of K8S, use it! If the cluster is managed by someone else, K8S is great. It only gets complex when you have to provision & manage

How are you using vanilla Kubernetes? I've tried provisioning vanilla K8s on bare metal clusters and I found it to be pure PITA, even with Kubespray. Rancher's RKE is the first installer I've come across that "just works

Well congrats to the team for the exit. But I am really hoping that this will continue the great momentum that Rancher has. I've come to quite enjoy Rancher products. I think the work they are doing is fantastic and lowering the bar fo

True. Whenever I sit and watch people use the computer (just watch when they are giving a presentation/screen sharing), I often cringe. Many don't use the scroll on their mouse/trackpad - they literally look for the scrollbar

To clarify, all browsers CAN handle the mailto link as long as the user configures it to open the correct email client. That’s key because there’s many oblivious users who don’t even know about this setting (we know from the number of suppo

Honestly I have given up trying to “keep” engineers because it’s a losing battle. It’s impossible to compete with big tech. From the offers I’ve seen, if FAANG/Big Tech really wants one of your team members, they will get them and ther

I feel it depends on what you mean by "bad code". We went through a very tough journey ourselves. When I started the company, I wanted us to just use out of the box Rails. But some senior devs disagreed - we had huge disagreements

Ok but I still don’t get why the op complains about it so publicly the same day (likely immediately) after submitting the ticket without even giving the company a chance to triage and resolve the issue. (Yes he apologized) He paid $10 for a
