Given that SSD drives typically cost between US $50 to US $100 per TB, anyone believing that a 30 TB SSD disk costs less than US $20 is almost begging to be cheated.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Especially if it's a digital 10x developer, not an optical 10x developer

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

That's likely better: because those under-performers just lack basic discipline.
It works on my machine! - done.
Write tests - no.
What can go wrong - that's negativity.
Write understandable code - why?
Etc.

Visual Studio extension expert Mads Kristensen's latest creation is Rainbow Braces, used to colorize brace pairs in order to better understand nested code. "And rainbows have nothing to hide"

Visual Studio Code already has this.

The article: The new offering was inspired by a Jan. 6 feature request on the Developer Community site that read:
Bracket pair colorization is one of my favorite features in VS Code and now it's supported natively: https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2021/09/29/bracket-pair-colorization

If your code base is so deeply nested or spans so many screens that this feature seems needed, what you really need to do is refactorde![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) tor it instead.

It works with VB as well. While VB doesn't have the overload of {} brackets, in many places it uses () instead of <> or [] and colorizing the () pairs could really help.

I once utilized an extension which did same . Uninstalled it after not too long . I don't recall exactly why . Could have been the colors were not easily discerned on my non-dark theme . Could have been I simply found the colors offensive . I prefer black characters and am very happy w/ the matching braces highlight feature upon keyboard caret placement .

Data from my informal survey shows most Windows 10 users are content with the status quo, and feel no pressure to move to Windows 11 — even with version 22H2 arriving soon. I don't care what they may say, Windows 10 is just alright with me

After offering them for over a decade, Heroku today announced that it will eliminate all of its free services — pushing users to paid plans. So instead you can pay and be abused?
I know, I know - "Who's Heroku?" They're moderately big with web developers. Or I guess were.
"For the uninitiated, Heroku allows programmers to build, run and scale apps across programming languages including Java, PHP, Scala and Go. Salesforce acquired the company for $212 million in 2010 and subsequently introduced support for Node.js and Clojure and Heroku for Facebook, a package to simplify the process of deploying Facebook apps on Heroku infrastructure."

An antitrust lawsuit against Apple would be a dramatic escalation in the administration’s battle against the tech giants. What goes around, comes back to bite you in the butt
I would have thought the Store Tax would have brought this on, but instead it's AirTags? I guess Tile has friends in dark places?

AlCapone was caught at the end for tax evasion...
Personally I don't care what they at the end use to fine them, I only hope that the fine really hurts. If not, they will continue laughing their a... off.

According to Gourianov, the quantum computing industry has been led astray by greedy physicists who’ve hyped up the tech’s possibilities in order to rip off VCs and get paid private-sector salaries for doing academic research. He'd rather they overhype (and invest in) his research focus

Quote: Per Gourianov’s article:
Shor’s algorithm has been a godsend to the quantum industry, leading to untold amounts of funding from government security agencies all over the world. However, the commonly forgotten caveat here is that there are many alternative cryptographic schemes that are not vulnerable to quantum computers. It would be far from impossible to simply replace these vulnerable schemes with so-called “quantum-secure” ones.
Even if this change were to happen to every internet connected device today; the NSA, etc would still want quantum computers capable of PWNing RSA, etc. They've got data centers full of decades of encrypted traffic sitting around waiting for a crack to be developed. It's not as flashy as reading what Vladolf Putler is sending to his generals today, but that sort of historical data is very useful for understanding what your rivals decision making processes are and why they did things you've never been able to understand.
