I walked out one morning and had a whole flock of them on the pergola on our second story deck. I was pretty surprised that they managed to get up there, three stories off the ground.
At the same time, they dont seem to be able to fly well when they panic. I let my dogs out one morning not knowing there was a turkey in their fenced area. The turkey freaked out and flew straight into the fence. Never seen a dog move as fast as my 70lb chow/cattle dog mix moved that morning.
Yeah it's really not worth my mental energy. Sometimes I take the time to reject tracking cookies. But I figure everyone's tracking me and everyone has my SSN at this point, and as long as my credit files are locked I don't really care. Like why do I even care if people are linking all my browsing data together and then using it to market stuff to me.
FWIW I'm 43 and grew up on the dark parts of the internet.
I love my ErgoDox EZ but I have the same problem as you. Even after a few years, I'm still not used to the location of some of the punctuation keys that you need when you're writing code (braces, pipe, etc.) which in turn really hampers my flow state. I end up undocking and using my MBP keyboard when I'm writing code because I just can't get into that same flow state on my ErgoDox.
Everyone is talking about how to get the style guide integrated into your CI. But it sounds to me like your concern is that other reviewers frequently point out your style guide violations.
You could set up some local lint rules just for yourself. You'd need to set it up to only run against code that you changed. And if you don't have an automated style guide you'd have to come up with your own. But it seems like once you get over the hump you could just slowly add rules as you get tired of forgetting about them/people pointing them out to you.
> And if, god forbid, I miss one, just get over it. It can be fixed later. It's not nearly as important as having correct functionality in our app, and I'm pretty busy!
This is a concerning attitude. If the team has agreed on a set of style guides to follow then you should follow them, argue to change them, or move on.
If you don't have time to adhere to the style guide now, why do you think you will have more time to go back and fix it later?
This tool only replaces a small part of a good programmer and just further highlights the differences between people blindly writing code and people building actual systems.
The challenge in software development is understanding the real world processes and constraints and turning them into a design for a functional & resilient system that doesn't collapse as people add every little idea that pops into their head.
If the hard part was "typing in code" then programmers would have been replaced long ago. But most people can't even verbally explain what they do as a series of steps & decision points such that a coherent and robust process can be documented. Once you have that it's easy to turn into code.
Yeah this is why we end up setting goals for our teams that are generic, like “respond to production issues within one business day”.
Not the dev’s fault if the big Q3 feature they were supposed to work on gets deprioritized in Q2 or some important customer cancels for an unrelated reason and their goal was to get the customer live.
Yes, you can redefine goals as things change, but at a certain point it adds a lot of overhead and the goals just turn in to “your job”.
I think it would be much more difficult to prosecute someone for working on a generic storefront application that COULD be used as a darknet market vs. someone who was directly building a darknet market.
There's obviously gradient, because on one side you have Richard Bates and on the other side you have the people who work on Tor. I think that writing a generic "white label anonymous storefront" is much closer to the Tor side than the Silk Road side.
Because Authy is SMS-based it's subject to phone number hijacking. If someone manages to convince your mobile carrier to enable your number on their SIM then you just lost all your 2FA protection. There are also ways to hack the SMS system so that you don't even need to have your phone number ported to fall victim.

And, yes, he destroyed that turkey.
