If you work for a company that has cybersecurity insurance, they ask, point-blank, if all employee desktops have antivirus before they quote your premium. You just have to use it. It’s not a subject for religious dogma.

This looks interesting. Is it MacOS only? And how does it behave with tools like tmux or ssh?

In the US the America On-Line (AOL) internet service provider mass mailed 3.5 floppy disks to households. This was a boon for all my classmates when I attended a vocational school that required us to submit assignments on disk. I would remi

I’m not happy that this change has happened; however, since learning about how the BOOTSEL mode works under the hood I’ve been expecting news like this from one of the big two OS vendors. While a sleek looking use case on the surface, mount

Nice effort on an interesting topic. However, the book could use a better technical review. For example the first recipe will not work as expected with out a multi-column unique index (specifically the MySql example). I feel that the preexi

I took the meaning as: Array processing can cause hidden bugs (like GOTO). The bugs are usually introduced when the size of the array changes while processing. Also ‘find’ing and ‘filter’ing arrays is more error prone (like not properly han

I’ve been reading Dave Farley’s new book, “Modern Software Engineering” He has a few rants related to GitFlow vs Trunk development. Many of his points agree with OP in that merging is a big pain point in GitFlow. I’ve both used strategies o

Kitchenaid direct-drive stand mixer. I have one from the 1950s that has been used multiple times a week since it was bought new by my grandmother. The dough hook, whisk, and other attachments secure in place with machined fittings so there

Agree. The device is made of long lasting parts. Easy to repair if needed and parts for even the oldest models are still available.

I don’t think that a magazine has the power to ban or set global policy on anything. They do have the ability (or perhaps the responsibility, as a free press) to to research, describe, and suggest alternatives to “every pleasurable activity

I generally like the economist but this article is poor. The topic of deforestation is only whispered in at the end, almost a footnote. However, burning the Amazon for farmland to produce beef in Brazil should be part of the headline.

This is great. Borland Object Pascal was the second language I learned in school (after Quick Basic). Along with my classmates I cobbled together a poor clone of a Might and Magic style game. It was our instructor’s way of teaching us to co

The whole idea of me reviewing software before I install it breaks when I can’t easily install it from the source I reviewed. This reminds me of why GitHub should create it’s own App Store (yup, I’m gonna beat this drum): I can navigate the

This style of rebuttal article has me too jaded to focus on the topic and see behind the hegemonic politics. I would have ignored the post and not commented except that the referenced R. Martin article is the same style of immediate referen
