  • I could but I'd still be getting the same Firefox which has a nagging incentive to cooperate with advertisers and google. The benefit of having to pay for software is that their revenue stream comes directly from me and not from a 3rd party. It's not about supporting the developer for me, it's about knowing that the product I pay for is the product I get

  • If its an application I run locally, I rarely grep logs (they're small enough that I can just ctrl+f). If it's something running in production with millions of lines of logs, then I agree

  • I wish all the logs at my company were as beautiful as these terminal logs

  • Sure, look at their personal projects. I'm just saying the maintainability and quality of the code and speed of iteration is more of the point than how impressive the math is behind an ML algorithm. I've just seen a lot of ML engineers/data scientists who really suck at writing maintainable code

  • I got a simple Casio for my birthday and I don't think I'll ever need another watch, unless I lose this one. People say "oh it tracks how many steps I took today", but I don't know why I would need to know that information

  • I know I'm in the minority but I would pay yearly to use Firefox. Not sure how much I'd pay, but I am getting into the habit of purchasing software instead of allowing it to purchase me

  • I honestly don't think that doing these cool things improves your odds of getting hired. Junior Devs don't really touch these parts of a platform, let alone lead development on them from scratch.

    A valuable engineer, to me, is someone who writes clean, maintainable code and follows common patterns. That's also something which has to be learned by trial and error to actually see the value of.

  • I literally have no clue what the point of these devices is

  • Do monitors keep a stable amount of features from one generation to the next? I mean the only real reason to upgrade a monitor is for new features, not because it has incrementally improved on the features it already offered, or size maybe. What would be the basis for calling something a "porkchop" vs a "lizard milkshake"

    I guess you could have like 3 tiers of features, going from Cheapest to most Expensive (i.e, lower end is 60hz, higher end 120+hz) and then each generation you know which monitor is "better"

  • Gog is not in the bridge building business though

  • Build more homes. A lot of housing regulations tend to make things worse

  • Meen pronoons err sit/hans

  • Because Linux still makes up a small % of PC Gamers, so CDPR hasn't prioritized it. Plus they'd need to have some kind of proton-like middleware (or just proton) for the majority of their games (which are mostly 15-20+ years old) to be playable. It seems like a large engineering challenge for a company which isn't nearly as wealthy as valve

  • Would love for squenix to bring back Anachronox

  • No, it's because of a lack of new supply. Most houses are owned by the people who live in them, not land lords

  • The only reason rent would decrease in response to economic conditions would be if they started building tons and tons of houses and supply began to outpace demand. OR, your country were experiencing deflation, which is bad

  • You're wrong, building more housing is THE solution. The vast majority of homes are owned by people who live in them, not landlords. Building more housing is literally the ONLY solution.

  • The vast majority of software run on Windows these days runs in a web browser. The legacy shit in windows doesn't impact most software engineers

  • I am absolutely not trying to antagonize you. I'm sorry that you interpreted it that way
