I had a very bad experience with Datadog. They seem to be big scammers. For me, Grammarly gives me the same impression as Datadog, but I have no explanation for why I feel that way.

I started using Delphi 3 and stopped at 7, migrating to web development (Rails, Django, etc.). Delphi was magical. Nothing compares to Delphi's productivity. Rails is good, but it doesn't even come close to Delphi's productiv

"Over the past decade, people in the community, not just Shopify employees, started to conclude that rubygems and bundler were being monetized by some key maintainers." Is being monetized wrong? If so... Is there any REAL evidence

People are complaining about the price of games, about Microsoft giving up exclusivity on some games... I've seen this happen in many markets. When no one uses the internet and annual growth is 1,000%, everyone tries to attract an audi

Thanks. I had been searching for this for a project in the past and couldn't find it in Go or Rust. Before posting, I asked chatgpt, and he said it wasn't possible...

Great article! I like Go and Rust, but sometimes I feel like they lack tools that other languages have just because they WANT to be different, without any real benefit. Whenever I read Go code, I see a lot more error handling code than us

Before my first job, I read many of these types of texts. When I entered the job market, I saw that the truth was very different. This is pure nonsense. In my 26 years of experience, I see managers and HR professionals as company advocates,

> What's wrong with Firefox Speed and bugs. My Firefox crashes on some sites, like 9gag. And it's very slow to load websites. The latest version of Chrome loads websites instantly! Firefox takes a few seconds!

A live programming interview measures a candidate's performance in interviews, not in programming. This is because people are very bad at evaluating others' skills; those with more charisma end up winning. I remember participating

The software quality is so low that if a bug bothers you, it's easier to get hired to fix it than for the company to fix it! Wow. It reminds me of the programmer who mitigated the GTA 5 loading time problem. If even with a lot of money

Yes, in my case, for some sites like 9gag, Chrome is the only browser that works! Nothing is free, and ads are inevitable (Firefox makes money from... ads). I don't think ads are the worst thing about the internet. Where I'm sure

I use Firefox, Chrome, and Edge on a Windows 10 machine. I use Chrome 90% of the time because Firefox is slow and has many bugs on video sites like 9gag. The screen goes black, the video loses vertical sync, etc. The same happens with Edge.

>cache.delete obviously only deletes that browser's cache, not all other browsers in the world. To me, it only makes sense if the put method creates a cache only in the datacenter where the Worker was invoked. Put and delete need to

It's no surprise that Cloudflare is having a service issue again. I use Cloudflare at work. Cloudflare has many bugs, and some technical decisions are absurd, such as the worker's cache.delete method, which only clears the cache c

AWS can make billions from open source. On the other hand, solo developers who try the same path are basically seen as scammers. Ironic. And creating a good user interface is very, very hard. Otherwise Gimp wouldn't be the monstrosity
