I won't downvote you, but I will die on the other hill - the one over there that has a guy sitting down with his arms folded sporting an angry face every time someone something positive about WSL. There's at least three of us on

I too went down that rabbithole. Haha. Anything around that time to get an edge in a fantasy football league. I found a bunch of historical NFL stats pdfs and it took forever to make usable data out of them.

Government is the worst possible solution to every problem. (not an attack on you. I have to say that every time I see someone say anything along the lines of "the government should do it")

I would agree with you. Dating app data might not be legally protected like some PII out there, but there are easily foreseeable bad consequences from compromised dating app data of any kind. Security should be accounted for from the very

Old school Zeiss glass is like butter for any camera body. My dad told me to stick with Nikon and spend my money on lenses first. He was not wrong. You can put 25 year old professional lenses on a mid-market Nikon body and the images wil

The BFF pattern is just "mostly microservices dedicated to a particular client type". It makes sense when you have drastically different needs between a desktop client and a mobile client (or maybe for a kiosk client or POS interf

This really seems to me like a big warning that says to avoid hiring people that were laid off. Better advice. Be who you are. Work for and with people you like. Do what interests you where you are valued. You will spend a lot of time a

I _just_ went through this when my child had an ebike accident (AAA, southern california). You need specific ebike insurance. Auto/homeowners doesn't apply for different reasons.

I learned a trick with flipping coins from a barber at my grandpas shop when I was probably 6 or 7. Since then I've always been able to flip a coin and determine what the outcome is. It's really just being consistent with the fl

Create a paper trail. Crank out tickets. Document everything. Hit the numbers. No. Add value. It's not your job to quantify it. It's not your job to create an understanding of what you do. If your organization or your manager
