Same here. It's my only Windows machine and the only one that reliably prints some PDFs. If they cared that I'm printing out MLP RPG sheets to play with my daughter I'll have that conversation. I Never have work email on any

I'd forgotten all about this and used it for something once but I can't remember what now, but I liked it.

I'm all in on prettifying... If it's done automatically. I find it such a good tradeoff to not have to think about it that I'm happy to accept the times when I think my discretion would do it better. That said, I've star

I'm excited to try this. I've tried xstate many times and always struggled with the typescript, if this Just Works I'll be v happy

I've listened to some of the podcast and it is really good, even in the car where you're highly unlikely to have devtools open.

I've often thought that instead of an expensive coffee machine, ping pong table or playstation, I'd like a tea lady (or tea person as they would/should be called now)

Good point! I was thinking of it more as the human right to a cup of tea (not meaning to belittle real human rights struggles)

Didn't spot this till now, so you may have gone. Largely based on articles I read after watching the film Blood Diamond, actually.

Tea and coffee ought to be a baseline in any office environment imo. I think it'd be worth it for companies to just pay for it, otherwise employees set up a tea club, spend work time doing it and fall out over it.

I used to work with someone who had been a manager in 80s Britain (high unemployment) and he said they threw any applicable in a brown envelope in the bin. It wasn't about skills or experience or culture fit, but about getting the hiri

I'm glad you got out! I find that CEO level bosses (I used to be a teacher so am including heads/principals here) love to pontificate about stuff not related to the job. I've often wondered why. It's sometimes harmless,

This sounds awful. It's amazing how workplaces can get in these kind of darkly comic places

I know it uses JS but the customValidity stuff is pretty cool too!

Luckily my wife wanted Peridots but I would not have bought diamonds on ethical grounds.

It sounds a bit like the no-cors request that lets you see if the resource was available but won't let you see anything? I nearly tried to use it once to try and see if a react app was on an intranet or not, but the client decided they

Binding auto format to the tab key has blown my mind!

I am British and really don't like the monarchy, so I disapprove in general. But if you're going to make a (largely symbolic) gesture like this, it's inexcusable to abandon accessibility.

I guess this depends on 'musically diverse' === 'better' though, which isn't necessarily the case when people think about what makes the top 100 tracks for a year.

Many memories of PKZip asking me to insert the last disk of a set :) Usually when copying a game...

Doing this (not a blog but a game of freeciv) is how I got into coding as a career instead of coding as a hobby.

Getting a human to change over a bunch of direct debits from one account to another is way better than doing it myself online.

Is it similar to HAML? I just started using that at work and really quite like it for templating.

I still don't really like it, but I've since used it for adding I18n translations in rails and I can't think of a better alternative there.

Js has 3 quotes, of which 2 do the same, and the remaining one does two different things...

> This isn't even the case. Last season in my country fruits were rotting in the fields cause nobody was there to pick them up. Did farmers increase salaries in order to get more fruit pickers? No. Sad that this is one of the plot p
