This exaggeration of Python3 migration is ridiculous and frankly has become boring. Yes, Python 3 broke compatibility. But we had more than a decade to migrate. It definitely does not deserve to be the poster child for migrations gone wrong

I don't agree. There are a lot of services which provide fully managed platforms with multiple competent providers you can migrate between. WordPress + CPanel does a great job at this, I've seen barely technical folks manage multi

Bottom navigation bar works great for me because it's easier to use with my thumb. I think Mozilla had to choose to either wait a long time to get full extension support and miss the train, or release early. I am also unhappy with not

VPA is used for discoverability across UPI clients. Phone numbers can be used for discoverability among users of a single client. For eg: foobar@icici on Google Pay & baz@hdfc on PhonePe can transact with each other, but can't use

Familiarity of source control tool lowers barriers for new developers coming into the project. For me this is enough reason to move to GitLab.

1. They are doing it with substantially less budget than their competitors. 2. Developers shouldn't have to build software for the greater good by sacrificing their livelihood. 3. I am pretty sure many people building all this amazing

Everyone not happy with pocket recommendations, what is the alternate source of revenue? Not enough will pay for the product. On the other hand Mozilla has to compete with Apple, Google & Microsoft, all of whom are fighting hard for the

Great to see GitLab gain momentum in FOSS. It's a great fit for small teams too, it's easy to setup and keep updated. It's more important than ever to help GitLab gain adoption with GitHub making it free for private repos. I

1. The selected Java SDK API desugaring, though limited, is much awaited. Little things like supporting `java.time` up until API Level 14 make it less painful, don't have to end up using Joda Time even though it officially is not devel

Yeah. I see that it works great for some scenarios, like when I and my co-founder are collaborating. But if I try to teach it to a sales guy, I can see he just hates it :(

I am a 10yr+ Emacs user, this hit too close to home than I would like! I am seeing a lot of momentum in Emacs ecosystem for last couple of years and Spacemacs rocks! So hopefully it's gonna get better :)

I love using Notion, but I think the general discussion about it does not talk enough about how it's flexibility is also a problem many times. 1. Flexibility of blocks is a cognitive overhead for most folks in my team. They would rathe

In India, after Jio's success, all operators have now killed the old pricing structure or made it unviable. That structure provided us the ability to lower our plans to bare minimum (low talktime, long validity). Now everyone is on the

One big success of our current BJP-controlled govt in India is their ability to influence and control narrative on specific topics through targeted disinformation. This is not just for internal issues but also for external ones.

On a related note, a lot of folks feel air fresheners actually make the air fresh. Don't they usually just hide the smell?

Great to see Mozilla consistently improving devtools in Firefox. I have been using them over Chrome for a while now, hope it gets to a place where most devs start using FF again for debugging web apps.

Education is a bad indicator for the health of a democracy. Looks like the US isn't doing any better with democracy despite having higher education levels.

Nothing in this article justifies the title. Can someone share more information about this? It feels like they are subverting his point to get more page views.

Congratulations! 1. Get a health insurance for you and your wife if you don’t already have one. That takes care of large unexpected costs. 2. Make a budget for next 2 years. This will show how much money you might actually need. 3. Build sa

Yeah, it's slow, I'll give you that. But for now we can live with that. We are a 4 member shop, it's a problem for another day :).
