First NanoBanana came for the artists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not an artist. Then Claude came for the designers with Claude Design, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a designer. ...

MinIO is a drop in replacement for S3. I plan on switching to this as soon as I can. For now, I just pinned localstack to 4.14.0

The non-answer is anything you want. For me, it's my diet and workout buddy. It knows my goals, keeps me on track, does meal planning for me, gives me grocery lists, logs what I eat, when I exercise... anything I want so I don't

This reminds me of this post from 2013 -- https://mikehadlow.blogspot.com/2013/12/are-your-programmers... Essentially, there are two parallel teams, one is seen constantly huddling together, working late, fixing t

Adding to this: it's not just that the apprenticeship ladder is gone—it's that nobody wants to deal with juniors who spit out AI code they don't really understand. In the past, a junior would write bad code and you'd wor

I know this is besides the point but translation libraries are perfect for this even if you aren't creating a multilingual site. You define your singular/plural forms in one place.

I hung onto a Blackberry way longer than I should have simply because I wanted physical keys. I'm trying to hang onto cars with physical controls as well. It seems like automakers are finally get the hint that people want physical co

Great analysis - though I can't help but notice that 2009 is right when smartphones really took off (iPhone in 2007, Android in 2008, then mass adoption). The data showing accidents getting more deadly rather than more frequent actuall

Completely agree. Nuxt is intuitive - convention-over-configuration and auto-imports remove a ton of boilerplate. The key is treating it as an app framework, not a backend solution - within that scope, it handles modern SSR/SPA comple

I'm baffled by the doom-and-gloom reactions here. Nuxt remains what it's always been: the best convention-over-configuration framework in existence. It's built on Vue which is opinionated as hell, and you get all the benefits

Don't trust cancelling your card either. I closed my account at Capital One, paid the final balance, and six months later I noticed a steep drop in my credit score. I had a $3 monthly charge that kept recurring even though I had closed

Can we talk about having your account locked from a website because a bot attempted to login using someone's email address?

Agreed. Please get screened first. In Virginia, there are hotlines that you can call first and I'm assuming it is the same in every other state.

I'm from the US, specifically Richmond, VA and we've been hoarding your warm air. We broke multiple heat records last week with 98F highs.

I'm not sure if this is a troll post. The "un"adoption of GUI frontend tools has nothing to do with job security. At best, it is a poor conspiracy theory. There are great answers in these comments that provide good insight

As an interviewer, I don't ask this question but if I did then you could impress me by asking what a binary search tree is, then I would tell you, then you explain or write how you would do it. Most of these interview questions aren&#x

I can relate to your last paragraph. I used to (and still) source dive to find good workarounds to library issues. But I never asked for permission, I just did it. I also delivered on time. Nowadays, I'm a team lead and I am guilty

A reviewer's ranking is determined by the number of helpful votes from other customers. Then how do you prevent sellers from spamming downvotes against negative reviews? At least for me, Amazon has been slipping. Product pr

Except, in this scenario, the cab driver is OKWU and the new york times is also OWKU. It's reasonable for OWKU to make this announcement. They are laying out their expectations for their student body. It is inconvenient but student

The author knew he was being provocative and later revokes his theory due to code not being able to evoke emotion. But I disagree, I've felt rage many of times while code reviewing.

Though for all their steps backwards, this is a big step in the right direction. According to them, they can now develop and improve upon a sole app for all devices. With this move, we'll finally start seeing more features and refine

Well yea. That's no different than that Amazon would have to develop an app for Roku or AppleTV. Everything else remains constant, the only difference is supporting Chromecast is just implementing an API to your already existing appli

You can use your existing apps that you already have on your smartphone and have it "cast" to your TV. "Casting" is simplying saying... take this video link, and play it full screen on my TV. Or if you were using Spoti

Chromecast is a different approach to extending media. Most devices (Roku, FireTV, AppleTV) all requires proprietary apps to be installed on their devices. For example, Netflix developers would have to create a port of the application to

This is proof that you can counter-argument anything. Just proofread your damn resume (or engineer yourself a spellchecker).

That's called drinking the koolaid and it's very effective. Especially for establishing a career path. Once you "make it", you can loosen up. If you're only applying for a paycheck and not a career then I agree. Y

I doubt Twitter is making deep cuts so they can keep their friends. But it does help to like the people you work with.
