What on earth happened to good ol' checkboxes?
Seems to me a dab of black paint would be sufficient.
That is intriguing. Anyone know of an equivalent for Windows?
I consider Cunningham's book one of the best I've ever read on the topic of the manned space programs.
Brilliantly put.
I've tried a number of alternatives and keep coming back to Evernote's legacy apps (Windows and Android). The features I use are just right, and syncing just works, always. A key feature for me is being able to (with…
The first one (of many) that comes to mind is not looking to the future when I started life on my own. Had someone told me when I was in my 20s that a day would come much sooner than retirement age when I would be sick…
I always buy my ThinkPads as factory refurbs with remaining warranty from reputable sellers on eBay, saving quite a bit of money.
Here in the US, I swear the rule of thumb for installing stop signs is only the limitation of how many can be bought under the current budget. So many intersections would be less frustrating by having yield signs,…
No one really believes this was an accident, do they?
This naming scheme seemed extremely shortsighted to me as it wreaks havoc on Internet text searches. It forces one to search for numerous possible references to a release: the adjective alone, the animal name alone, the…

I once worked for a small software company that produced custom-written ERP systems for small to mid-sized manufacturers. It was a real thrill to be presented a problem and write code that solves it nicely, removing…
Hmm...I might need to come up with a 5.25-inch floppy drive again.
My Pixel 2 XL has been humming along nicely, even on Android 10. Maybe I should worry how Android 11 will run on it--it will be the last update planned for this phone, and hence an opportunity for Google to make me…
>... I have plan B, plan C, and plan D ready to be put into action if I suddenly don’t have a career in software engineering, or I don’t want a career in software engineering. I would like to read more about that if you…
After this passes, imagine a perfect storm scenario where a widespread crisis--real, manufactured, or blown out of proportion and deemed an imminent threat by the powers that be--affords governments the cover to force…
