I don't know how else these people could have found me.

> and haven't looked back

I did the same but I'm aware that LinkedIn is probably how people got in touch with me in the past, eventually leading to a job. So I'm waiting before not having looked back until the next time I need a job :) Regardless, it's not the world I want to live in anymore so you just gotta disconnect.

> The primary purpose of code review is to find code that will be _hard to maintain_.

This makes me wonder if we all have a different primary purpose in mind when it comes to code reviews because that wouldn't be my number one. Talk within your teams would be my advice. Especially now with AI enabling more rapid changes.

> There's also a difference between your neighbor not closing her blinds and you using a telescope to look inside her apartment, which is what sites like this are.

How else are things supposed to change. Hopefully this will embarrass some oligarch enough to force companies to close their loopholes.

Imagine you're at work and there's a camera behind you filming everything you do and it's just out in the open.

I'd probably invest in a secondary AC and a generator/battery to power it. That heat is brutal.

Went to Germany during the recent heat wave and few of the public buildings and none of the private ones had AC. I found the whole endeavor much more very stressful because of the heat.

> GET: Content (body) "no defined semantics"

I thought it wouldn't be a terrible idea to open up the GET method to contain a body but according to the original spec the GET body is to be ignored completely. There's also caching which would break because the important bit of the request would live in the stripped body.

Firefox Android is fine albeit laggy. I don't get why one has to customize scroll behavior but I don't do mobile UX myself.

> raise sterile males and release them into wild insect populations. When a wild female mates with a sterile male, her eggs won’t hatch. The population gets smaller with each generation.

They won't harm then it sounds like, but they'll not fertilize the eggs.

> One side is responsible for at least 20.000 but more likely 60.000 Iranian deaths, just this year (and everybody seems to be worried about the other side's "warcrimes")

I can see people attributing this to the US as well after reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9ta....

I've heard of the changes to the NASDAQ rules and I somewhat get how they make it so these stocks are included in index funds earlier than before. As far as I know, NYSE and others haven't done the same change so index funds there are "safe", i.e. will include the stocks only after a longer period, implying that it will have settled in value by then. Is that true at all? I'm sure the situation is much more complicated, but I do wonder how to figure out how much I'm affected.

I know what you mean but doesn't that require squashing as well? If I have a branch with 5 commits, I think rerere helps me by only having to fix the conflict once, not potentially multiple times. I might be wrong here though.

The hyperbole was probably on his side so I would put my money on it being much much closer to never than every day. He's smart so he invests in McDonald's, not eat it's unhealthy products. And I say that lovingly as someone who eats their food occasionally.

But also, who knows. Context matters, maybe he gets a salad with oil and vinegar dressing every day. Could totally be true!
