Seconded. OP, if you can write Markdown, Hugo will turn it into a website.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury.
I don’t know that he’s absolutely right, but he’s certainly situationally right.
To maximize the number of people who show up at your funeral.
Yeah, the “political suicide” bit is immediately questionable. The fact that this race is even close has destroyed any remaining shreds of faith in my fellow Americans.
Trump could go up in stage and rant about black people, using the hard-R; he could repeat the sexist comments he’s already famous for; he could probably even criticize Christians - none of it would move the needle. People voting for him aren’t doing so because they think he’s a great person; they’re doing it because they hate liberals.
There are grammar Nazis, and fashion Nazis; PC Nazis, and good ol’ fashioned fascist Nazis; but my favorite Nazis are logic Nazis!
Go ahead… you can whisper it to me
“… as opposed to 70% of non-trans people.”
Statistics without context are meaningless, even if it is biggotted propaganda.

That’s probably the only content of value there, anymore.
Yes, if you log in, you can get in. I deleted my account, and every post and comment I’d ever made, when I left, and I’ll be damned before I create another account there.
Opening an office is a completely different thing; there is an enormous difference between offshore contractors and offshore employees. That much, I’ll agree with.
In the US, though, it’s usually cost-driven. When offshore mandates come down, it’s always in terms of getting more people for less cost. However, in most cases, you don’t get more quality code faster by throwing more people at it. It’s very much a case of “9 women making a baby in one month.” Rarely are software problems solved with larger teams; usually, a single, highly skilled programmer will do more for a software project than 5 junior developers.
Not an projects are the same. Sometimes what you do need is a bunch of people. But it’s by far more the exception than the rule, and yet Management (especially in companies where software isn’t the core competency) almost always assumes the opposite.
If you performed a survey in the US, I would bet good money that in the majority of cases the decision to offshore was not made by line managers, but by someone higher in the chain who did not have a software engineering degree.
Thing is, outsourcing never stopped. It’s still going strong, sending jobs to whichever country is cheapest.
India is losing out to Indonesia, to Mexico, and to S American countries.
It’s a really stupid drive to the bottom, and you always get what you pay for. Want a good development team in Bengaluru? It might be cheaper than in the US, but not that much cheaper. Want good developers in Mexico? You can get them, but they’re not the cheapest. And when a company outsources like this, they’ve already admitted they’re willing to sacrifice quality for cost savings, and you - as a manager - won’t be getting those good, more expensive developers. You’ll be getting whoever is cheapest.
It is among the most stupid business practices I’ve had to fight with in my long career, and one of the things I hate the most.
Developers are not cogs. You can’t swap them out like such, and any executive who thinks you can is a fool and an incompetent idiot.
Me: Mom, can see have Evil Santa?
Mom: No, we have Evil Santa at home.

No. They ban VPNs, so if I happen to follow a link that leads there, I get the “login to see this” page, shrug, and go somewhere else.
It’s easy to circumvent, but rarely worth the effort. The content was getting mostly shit-worthless even before I left. It’s only gotten worse.
There’s not useful, factual information on 4chan, these days.
That’s comforting!
The metal flashing could just be standard, but people do add that to prevent damage to the door. The dripping down the door looks like it may have been cribbing, so they may have added the bars to limit damage to the wood.
Johnny Appleseed was a real guy, but he was doing his thing in the late 1700’s. Apples from grafting were pretty good eating, by then; trees grown from seed were mostly only good for making cider.
I think Android updates intentionally made the Pixel C slower. It was a noticeable process, up to the point they stopped supporting it. I’d downgrade to an earlier version, but there’s such poor support in Lineage, I’m barely able to run the version that’s on there now.
Such a shame, because it’s still an amazingly beautiful device.
I’m 100% with you. I want a Light Phone with a changeable battery and the ability to run 4 non-standard phone apps that I need to have mobile: OSMAnd, Home Assistant, Gadget Bridge, and Jami. Assuming it has a phone, calculator, calendar, notes, and address book - the bare-bones phone functions - everything else I use on my phone is literally something I can do probably more easily on my laptop, and is nothing I need to be able to do while out and about. If it did that, I would probably never upgrade; my upgrade cycle is on the order of every 4 years or so as is, but if you took off all of the other crap, I’d use my phone less and upgrade less often.
The main issue with phones like the Light Phone is that there are those apps that need to be mobile, and they often aren’t available there.
I really wish Imgur didn’t block VPNs 🙁
I’m sure it’s lovely - congratulations!
