People screw up CLI’s all the time (looking at you Google Cloud). They (used to) insist on using my installed python which automatically upgrades and breaks the CLI. Good job python. Good job Gcloud.
Yes you should. I think most comments here are about products that have millions of users where it’s actually worthwhile spending all that extra time and money to perfect things.
For most development, it isn’t worthwhile and the best approach is to wing it, then return later to iterate, if need be.
The same goes for most craftsmanship, carpentry in particular. A great carpenter knows that no-one will see the details inside the walls or what’s up on the attic. Only spend the extra time where it actually matters.
It triggers me immensely when people say “I could have made a better job than that” about construction work. Sure maybe with twice the budget and thrice the time.
My main point is that falsifying a hypothesis based on how it makes you feel is not very productive. You just repeated it again. You seem to get mad by just posing the question.
systematic teaching of humans, where we are teaching each other causal relations. The two are fundamentally different.
So you mean that a key component to intelligence is learning from others? What about animals that don’t care for their children? Are they not intelligent?
What about animals that can’t learn at all, wheere their barains are completely hard wired from birth. Is that not intelligence?
You seem to be objecting that OPs questions are too philosophical. The question “what is intelligence” can only be solved by philosophical discussion, trying to break it down into other questions. Why is the question about the “brain as a calculator” objectionable? I think it may be uncomfortable for you to even speak of but that would only be an indicator that there is something to it.
It would indeed throw your world view upside down if you realised that you are also just a computer made of flesh and all your output is deterministic, given the same input.
102 times if you count the one before the code.
This is more toxic then funny.
That’s what they meant by Dark pattern.
That leads to focusing on the nitty gritty details first, building a library of thing you think you might need and you forget to think about the whole solution.
If you come up with another solution half way through, you will probably throw away half of the code you already built.
I see TDD as going depth first whereas I prefer to go breadth first. Try out a solution and skip the details (by mocking or assuming things). Once you have settled on the right solution you can fill in the details.
Right,too much coverage is also a bad thing. It leads to having to work on the silly tests every time you change som implementation detail.
Good tests let the insides of the unit change without breaking, as long as the behave the same to the outside world.
As little as possible,I think
Yes that was the wrong comment. Hmm. Someone said they don’t use some of the FOSS tools because they are so bad.
I think the main complaint with Gimp is that it is way more complex than the simpler editors, without actually being excellent for experienced users, like Photoshop is. Photoshop is also simpler to use for beginners to Gimp really missed both targets.
Krita is simpler than Photoshop and Gimp but much more powerful than n base level like Paint.
I’d say layers and masks (and operations that go with that) are the main step up from entry level.
Edit: fix typo
Gimp is a shame, they really had something to begin with. I use Krita now which is way more like you would expect a FOSS image editor to be. Much more similar to Photoshop if you came from there.
At work, we use gimp headless though. The scripting capabilities are great!
The seems like there is a problem with your platform if you can’t easily switch to a reasonable file explorer.
Now you’re just being silly.

It is half of the circumference, multiplied by the radius, of course.
They don’t want to pay architect salary to do decorating work and I fully agree. Problem is that stuff like this are often overlooked until someone makes a fuss about it, costing PR. The other 90 % of the overlooked stuff is never found though so it’s still a good decision to skip stuff like this.
Bank holidays would be really awkward. You start wort at 23 and the next day is off so you would just have to work that one hour.
Office workers could probably move hours around. It would get complicated for shift workers though. Paying overtime for work on holidays?
