@the_quiet_one There was a story on this site a year (or two?) ago from a guy who had made a few commits on the mongodb (?) repo on Github who was offended that nobody was throwing money and praise at him just for completing a job application. He finished his blog post with some "helpful" tips for prospective employers to consider. The most important thing, apparently, is that you have to have heard of him.
Sooo cringe worthy.
I move windows by holding down caps+MMB and resize with caps+ctrl+MMB.
Wat.
I can't remember the last time I took Microsoft's word for anything, their promises that this would be a wholly new product is no exception. "Optimized for Windows 10" apparently means "it's only available on Windows 10".

I'd rather have someone else provide it for me.
It is redundant anyways, "isBetween" doesn't need to be a function in the first place because all languages come with greater/less than operators. What you're really saying is that NPM fans don't want to think. If you'd rather have someone else provide it for you, why bother with the whole "software developer" career at all? It's probably easier to become an accountant than it is to figure out which JS build module you should be using anyways.
You say I'm right for the wrong reasons, but you follow that with something that exactly proves my point. You don't want to write it because someone may have done that already. Well guess what, someone has already done everything. All of the problems we work on today have been solved and resolved for decades, yet we keep plugging away because that's not the point of programming or CS in general. At least on a basic level we think this is fun, right? How is creating a dependency list fun?
I believe a module should be a self contained package with some special functionality, something built for a purpose. The only "purpose" for building an "isBetween" function for NPM is to put "X number of modules published on NPM". I tend to think these modules are built by code camp "graduates" who, having no experience with other languages or package managers, just dump every brain fart into a module and call it a career.

Well now there's a whole site for people with no social skills to ask other people with no social skills how to socialise.
Fucking lol. SO is the last place I would go to learn about social skills. This is the same site which prides itself on being needlessly pedantic about what kinds of questions are acceptable.. why do they think this will work?
We've achieved peak-hipster. Foodies? Check. Vegan? Check. Overly expensive soap? Check. Terrible taglines? Check.
Also, one of them is called "Sharni". I really hope that's an ethnic name.

There are obvious advantages to its small modules ethos.
I really can't agree. This post shows quite well how a "small module ethos" works in practice. There are whole piles of software entirely written by other people, yet those who create the JSON configuration files that glue those modules together get to call themselves developers, engineers even? This is exactly why I am an NPM hater. I understand, fundamentally, NIH-syndrome because it makes sense. Programmers want to write code, even if that means reinventing the wheel for no reason other than "because I can". This approach is the exact opposite of NIH, nothing can ever be invented here because someone, somewhere, already wrote that code. It is development for people who either hate or don't want to understand programming.
The American military machine is a joke.
Some of the apps used by the various sp0rtz teams I play on have similarly terrible built in messaging components. You get notifications but the messages don't render in real time, so you have to constantly force-refresh to see anything. Whatsapp > all of that shit.
@Gribnit Fuck outta here with that legitimate career advice.
@Andrew-Scott Thankfully, no. This is just an example of poor management. They're passing the buck down the chain, hoping someone else would do it. So, I'd recommend doing the same thing, assign the task to the person who should be doing it and go back to Youtube.
I'm confused. Do you get 3 phones with the "Herschel" package? Or does one phone have 3 SoC's, storage devices and sets of RAM chips?
This is one of the shinier bitcoin scams, I'll give them that. In it's folded form I think it looks pretty nice. in it's "expanded" form it looks like they're trying to channel those early 2000's vertical camcorders that I always thought were heinous.
Edit: Holy shit you do get 3 processors in one device. Why? WHY?!? I could understand 1.5TB of storage and 30GB RAM, but 3 processors serves literally no purpose.
@polygeekery The last 2, yes. But I'm not American (or British), so the chances are lower. I don't even know if they operate in my country.
And yes I can, as I had never heard of Equifax before this breach yet you're still claiming that I gave them permission. I gave no such explicit permission to Equifax, ever. Promise. You're trying to make the argument that because some other company says "we may check your credit..." in one of their many long form fine print documents that I have given them permission to know everything about me, but this argument is wrong. You're arguing from a legal perspective (which I don't care about, obviously this company was operating legally - my point has nothing to do with that) while I am arguing from the POV of the average consumer.
If my data ends up on the dark web because this company did not protect it properly, that is wrong. If they got that data without asking me personally for my explicit permission, that is wrong squared. Yes, it may be legal. Lots of things are legal right now. Your pedantry is irrelevant.
@dcon Depends if you think their customers are the people whose data they own or the government of a country that some of those people live in? I can't think of any reason the US gov't would need anything provided by Equifax, don't they already have the IRS for that?
Hence why I've never taken out a loan. What a scam.
At this point Equifax should just admit defeat and cease operations. The only reason they haven't yet is because they don't really have customers, yet somehow they've been allowed to aggregate data on everyone without their permission and without any kind of federal oversight (in any country). Amazeballs.
@heterodox Except that is my point. All batteries are removable because literally none of them are hardwired to the mobo. You might find it a hassle, I don't care, but you can't say they aren't removable.
