The article only lists a few species however I seem to see this feature all the time among trees not listed on the article's list.

I have struggled to use Elm because I rarely if ever need what it offers in my personal projects and at work we are a Lit shop.

Love CLJS though, I use that sometimes for personal work when I have an urge to lisp.

Love the use of functions to craft components. Such an undervalued way of writing a UI.

I think your cynicism is warranted for you. Like if you're not looking for a new framework and you are interested in the new, shiny JS refactor, don't bother. I live a happy life, using the same framework and never looking at all the other stuff.

But at one point our big contenders were also shiny and new, and I am glad someone less cynical than me was willing to put them to the test.

At has been echoed in the article and in the comments, so many people are different. I write and run software in my head long before it gets into a text file. This is very mental work but I could do it at the Super Bowl successfully. I zone out like a pro and can get completely lost in my head with no fear of distractions.

Conversely when I am debugging or doing more creative stuff like systems design work, I love distractions. For some reason the momentary interruptions really help me reapproach the problem from a new angle.

When all else fails a crack open a beer, my very best work has always been done while sipping a cold one.

Ah so DIY, I wasn't clear but that was what I meant by "small scale". I'll check out this stuff, thanks.

I've read plenty of accounts (in these comment are some even) that suggest merely the owning of a TV will get you slapped with this tax.

You need a license to listen to the radio?

Always boggled my mind that in the UK there is a tax on owning a television.

No bids in my area or close to me. Also interesting I had to scroll/zoom to my location, the box did not know my address.

I have Starlink and live an hour from town in a national forest. If I did not have Starlink I would have no choice but to move. It is the only option for rural internet when you need bandwidth and data plans that permit daily video meetings and regular dowloading.

I'd love to hear about these. I joined that startup because I wanted to be a part of the alt-ag world, I left because I found out I was just part of the stoner world.

The company I worked for had three "core" child companies. A consumer online store, brick and mortar stores, and a "we don't respond to your emails unless you're talking six figures per transaction". Even the at-scale business was running sticker prices that make it hard to do business if you're not growing something with a marijuana-level return.

I worked for a hydroponic tech startup, in no world is it cost effective if you're a large company. Small scale in a basement or backyard, yes, but this stuff doesn't scale, largely because it's priced for the marijuana industry. If you are growing lettuce with your hydroponics equipment that you paid weed prices for, you will never see your way out of the red.

That would depend on the country right? USA doesn't have a life+, so it's a hard date of 1928.

It sounds like this author wanted to recommend web-components but doesn't know they exist. This is exactly what web-comps solve, writing custom HTML elements that are interacted with like native ones, in native HTML.

The "blinking red lights" narrative started by the FBI director and parroted by Senator Graham were scare tactics to influenced the passing of this bill.

Lived in the Appalachians and Ozarks, both are fairly humid locales. Coffee is the most static substance on the face of the earth.

This is a false dichotomy.

This is buying a ticket to the movie and then a mobster taking another fee at the door.

Just because every other company in Sweden accepts extortion as part and parcel of doing business does not make extortion okay.

Why? They pay taxes. They pay shipping. Why do you also have to pay extortion fees?

Especially for US investors I suspect. That this is legal and seems to be at least partially government led, is absolutely mind boggling to me.

So a shipping company is refusing to deliver packages to a specific company?

This sounds like a shakedown.

Sounds like your professor's story involved the cousin of the axolotl, the tiger salamander. They can live an entire life in a larval state or they can undergo metamorphosis. The axolotl cannot, their adult form is their larval one.

These two creatures are so often mistaken that most pet stores selling axolotls are actually selling tiger salamanders. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axolotl

There isn't much to elaborate on. We are not hard up for COBOL or RPG devs, I'm sure some municipalities are but they are probably hard up for anyone who has the skills to make six figures.

COBOL is used still for far more reasons than technical debt, there is good reason for the language and I doubt Java is even capable of replacing it. Even if an AI could write a 100% perfect Java version of COBOL, Java would fall flat on its face. COBOL and other languages like it are very performant languages, optimized over more than a half century.

I work for a company that develops and maintains code that "no one knows anymore" which helps run the US banking system. This article is ill informed fear mongering and the proposed "solution" is a joke.

This is hilarious to watch

Better NVidia support is the only thing that keeps me on X. Well that and my distro (Pop) uses X still.

If you make the number of columns odd, won't it naturally lead to centered LEDs?
