Perhaps it didn't quite fit in with the finger-clicking, hand-clapping soundtrack.
All I heard was "We're going to break your plugins again, because reasons".
I respect the "Plato's cave" angle to this. Upvoted for diversity of thought.
They don't care. Words are just a means to an end, a compliance tool that doesn't have to make any sense as long as it works on enough people, and enough people are willing to pat them on the head for repeating them.…
Some of them could be badly designed. Mine has a part that hooks over the top of the door-frame, along with a bar that sits against the door frame on the other side... so the more weight you have on it, the more solidly…
"Well written" is hard to demonstrate, because (aside from being somewhat subjective) it's something that might only play itself out over a long period. For example, can you take one feature and completely remove it,…
Those poor smut-peddlers. Won't someone please think of the pornographers.

I'm not in a situation where I have any private logins that matter beyond my death. I'm either doing it wrong, or doing it right...

tldr: Wokeness is NOT a problem, we just have to be better at hiding it.
I can't even read the words "Dunning-Kruger" without getting Reddit flashbacks. That and "whataboutism".

It hasn't shifted.
Must be an old article. "bro" was popular a few years ago as a disparaging term for men, but it didn't stick. Funny to see it again in the wild.
Yeah I was like "Lolo Ferrari? I thought she was dead."
You know, I never tried, because I've never considered it a problem. I have 3 cups a day. I also know what it feels like to be too wired on coffee to sleep, so I feel like I know when that's not happening. But I've been…
Well I don't know if I can say I'm making it work. I do end up in some crazy situations, like during winter not seeing daylight for a few weeks. I still think of it as being in "Well, that can't be good" territory. Then…
Yeah, I just do everything in ES5. Although grunt-concat is beautiful... I no longer have to work with 1,000+ lines of JS in one file (or deal with the overhead of importing a laundry list of .js files). I just have it…
Registered an account just to say "Me too". I've been on this rotating cycle for several years at this point (so can't really tell how it might affect depression). It's remarkable how similar the timing is too... I go…
