The folks at Genius Bar recommend Malwarebytes pretty frequently https://try.malwarebytes.com/mac-antivirus-protection/
You may find it interesting that recently Malwarebytes was mentioned in relation to 230 of the DMCA which to my mind relates directly to this. They are an AV solution that holds "legitimate" software vendors that…
I was very much a part of this community at the time and engaged in a lot of discussions around this "feature". Part of the issue is that there were degrees of bunny hopping (as in being able to do it extremely well and…
IAM is going to be "required" for the root account, though, shutting that away is a good practice. In lieu of IAM you can use federated access from an identity provider like Okta. That will lease a role which can then…
Just as someone who got on the Ruby bandwagon back in the mid 00's there was definitely a feel of Ruby being a "Japanese import language" and at the time for myself, comparing Matz and van Rossom the latter felt like a…
See I am pretty scared of early alcoholism because I've heard all the fun stuff is getting into alcoholism during your late 60's and early 70's. More seriously though, thank you for this comment, it made me smile.
You may want to visit with a mental health professional and explain your behavior and motivation...
Oh, hey, this is my favorite so far. Can Soylent just be a shitty food choice, full stop? I think yes!
I tried very hard to take the perspective that this guy is irritated but that there might be some substance to his opinion. I couldn't help but constantly think this, though, "Wow, this guy is really mad, and now wants…
I spent the last 2 hours of every work day using VIM, regardless of how much longer it took to work on things. By the end of the week, I could jump into vim after lunch. When I started using ':x' in TextMate I knew it…
Anecdotally, this is exactly the sort of thing I have never needed while using vim on a server. Just let me modify content in the word hole...
But it's not interesting to you that the gross majority of people, even people who lean to your opinion, are constructing abstractions in order to reason about the problem? If you consider yourself a pragmatist, you…
This seems to be the thing people ignore, as the Tampa region has a fairly bustling tech scene, and due to proximity with SOCOM at MacDill AFB, more seem to be coming all the time. You could say, "Wow look at all this…
I have done maybe 20 or so interviews in the last 2 years and this is the #1 thing I look for. However, I have still hired people who do not display a talent for continuous rapid learning, that is to say, they will only…
In this vein, I wish people would ruminate on a topic like, "Senior Engineering: So now what?". When I first wanted to get into engineering, nothing helped or inspired quite like these posts. But, since I have "made it"…
I'm not sure you are any less responsible for your own privacy despite the fact that companies like Google as well as others are making it more challenging. The example you mentioned seems easily fixed by using GPG.…
"Supported" -- I'm not sure if you've ever tried to use a last-gen iPhone device with the latest iOS release, but, every device I've ever owned was sketchy at best after the 1st hardware release, and completely unusable…
I wish you could try to frame your criticism in a more engaging and friendly way. In my opinion, it's exactly this kind of absolutist reasoning that seems to be killing community and conversation. Of course he and many…
Juxtapose this desire against the fact this is in reply to a user named "goatlover" and it's hard not to laugh.
Usually this kind of attitude could be justified even if it was just a shitty anecdote, but with SCSS and LESS in particular I'm afraid you've chosen long lived, bulletproofed software that has tremendous adoption and…
For some reason people are caught up in sticker price value versus demand value and try to play this cute game where a car is an investment, or better yet, a tool to be leveraged. Cars are a luxury that we afford and…
As long as all you are concerned about is the difficulty of moving from one point to another (presumably of a minimum distance) you are correct. You probably are not accounting for the overhead of actually owning a…
"Ruby's incessant cuteness" is a first class feature of the language in practical environments, but not of the language itself, in my opinion. While I can knock python for whitespace, and not a whole lot else, I think…
At that rate, the entire software industry is just a facet of an elaborate real estate gamble.
Just, anecdotally, I knew a startup in northwest Arkansas (the walmart region) that won seed funding of about $100,000. They squandered the money relatively quickly, and immediately decided the only way to salvage their…
