Excel files can work surprisingly well in B2B scenarios where there's a high degree of trust. At a retailer I used to work at, we ran an impromptu Christmas gifts team in December each year, where corporate clients…
A malicious user who had the knowledge and ability to craft expensive GraphQL queries could just as easily use that knowledge to tie your REST API in knots by flooding it with fake requests. Some kind of per-user quota…
The Cradle adaptation is only an animatic, sadly. Best case scenario is that it generates enough buzz for a Netflix or an Amazon to pick it up for a full series, but then I'd be worried it would get butchered like Rings…
I've just ordered the first three, thanks.
Don't forget deploying updates by either (a) stopping your Python application and then restarting it, hoping your users are not too badly inconvenienced in the interim, or (b) rigging together some kind of blue-green…
In 10+ years of professional PHP development, the only time I've ever had to fix a codebase while updating the PHP version was when mcrypt was deprecated, and it was only around half an hour of work to replace it with a…
It looks like this service is intended to replace the kind of random "notify us of a missing manhole cover" type forms that are found in their thousands on government websites. For those types of applications, emailing…

I'm not a gamer myself, but my wife is and she frequently points out the creaky door sound effect when we watch movies. It's amazing how often such a small set of effects is reused.
Apart from the person who has "fullstack" in his username.
Nevertheless, the headline is 100% accurate. Perhaps the problem here is that the catered event rule shouldn't apply when the venue is inside a stadium.
Generally, when you see a package asking you to install it globally with `npm -g i`, you can install it locally with `npm i` and then run it with `npx`. Requesting global installation is either an expression of ego or…
> Why does it matter if a program is a self-contained binary? It seems like such an odd requirement. Because sometimes I just want to write `my_program | your_program` without learning how to install and set up a…
The mistake was to think Perl was suitable for those types of applications in the first place. Perl was designed for writing small scripts to glue C programs together in a more convenient way than using shell scripts…
Outside of the US, iOS's market penetration is so low that unless your app sells luxury yachts, it's largely pointless to throw your dev resources behind it no matter how well-heeled your Apple customers may be.
Hyperbole. Advertisers backed away from Twitter because Musk was upsetting a group of people whom advertisers tend to tiptoe around. Twitter is terrible, but it's no more terrible now than it was when Musk bought it.
> So let me see if I understand this thread. You realise you've been arguing with multiple people expressing multiple opinions, right? You appear to be prone to binary thinking, so it might not be clear to you that your…
If you stop reading 4chan, the words posted there will magically stop offending you. Food for thought.
I feel this way about the "David Bennett Piano" channel on YouTube. He discusses various music theory topics, illustrated with examples drawn from pop and rock songs. In particular, he often singles out Radiohead as…
The issue isn't the exact syntax that's used to access the service object. It's the fact that any random chunk of code anywhere in the codebase can reach out to any other random piece of code. Syntactic sugar or not,…
Laravel calls them "Facades". And no, they're not considered good practice outside the Laravel community.
What happens when you have a legal obligation to delete or anonymise data for some reason?
A framework built on top of a framework built on top of a framework?
This is true for backend frameworks too. In the PHP world, Laravel contains many helper functions that uselessly duplicate functionality already available in the standard library. Not only is this a waste of effort from…
Are you aware that black people commit crimes at higher rates in countries that have no history of slavery or the various other social problems that have existed in the US?
