Nope. It's the opposite way. The cow produces so much milk, because it's milked so often. In normal world, cow produces milk for the children, and when they drink less and less milk, the cow produces less and less milk. In the not

I hope unchecking the setting really disables the feature. I have hard time trusting Mozilla now... or rather I should write "again". On the other hand: there is a ticket [1] asking for container-based-extensions, so something l

Hug him. Support him. His life is most probably ending and he is most probably quite depressed. Stay with him. Your company is just a job, just a company. What would you expect of him if you'd be in his situation? I'm sure that ha

I'm involved in an Intervention Hostel in Poland/Europe. Many people need short-term help, not only with homelessness but they also need some real support. What is provided by the city, is only some night shelter, where they can e

yes! freedom! dangling pointers for everybody! But seriously: I wish more programmers had really good background (I'm not talking about academia, but e.g. learning from many books and conference videos). The "good practices"

I love the praised projects "xxx in yyy lines of code in zzz". While the reality almost always is: not documented, not tested, badly written glue for some libraries doing the real job. I'd love to see here really well designe

Just calculate the TCO. Check out how much you payed for the car + gas + repairs + insurance + everything else. Then check how much you can get when you sell it after the 4 years. The difference is the TCO. You can be surprised how cheaper

I hope it's a joke, or something is missing there. I try to save as much as possible and I barely spend 25% of my income. Forcing me to spend more is not right. Maybe they were rather thinking about: move your money electronically, whi

This is what I observed in a couple of companies. The most amazing thing is that some developers think that all is fine, some even like it. Set a deadline without asking the developers. Or ask them and ignore their estimates. Or ask them

I may be wrong... Isn't it that according to the law, the refugees are allowed to get the shelter in the first country they manage to get to? In this case it's Turkey, right?
