Hmmm...
Pay $3,900, or wait for Apple to fix it for free.
Tough choice.

Quote: Without software developers, there would be no software development industry, a fact well know to them. This leads to a breathtaking sense of entitlement rarely seen in human history, resulting in quite a few colorful problem personalities.

While I can certainly find myself, managers, and coworkers in this list, there should at least be one "this is actually a good person to work with/for" in the list. Perhaps a dodo bird, as they are extinct?

USC scientists have demonstrated a theoretical method to enhance the performance of quantum computers, an important step to scale a technology with potential to solve some of society's biggest challenges. Great news for all of you with quantum computers

Anything referencing quantum computing should here on out be followed by a link to this: The case against quantum computing
Won't happen, but it would help people understand quantum computing better.

But it's a theoretical method, so it's great news to me, for my theoretical quantum computer*.

In my exploration of Angular, I must say, I'm somewhat dismayed by the realization that I have to choose:
which version of Angular to use
which version of TypeScript to use
possibly which version of .NET Core to use
which Visual Studio plugin to use to support TypeScript and Angular
or ditch VS and use Sublime
or ditch Sublime and figure out all the VS Code plugins I need
possibly which version of node.js to use
and all the other stuff and their versions needed to build a modern desktop/mobile app
and once I start the project with my selected choices (let's say I go with the latest and greatest of all) then I have to keep constant track of all the different moving pieces and hope that if I keep myself current, there are no breaking changes.
I think that requires more time managing the tools than actually using them!!!

Blind asked tech pros to answer the following question either “True” or “False”: “I consider my current workplace a healthy working environment.” Some 52.34 percent answered “False,” while 47.66 percent said “True.” (Some 12,549 tech pros responded.) This is why they have those, "Employees must wash hands before returning to work" signs
|

You forgot an important part: "If an employee is not available then please feel free to wash your own hands."
I put up a sign saying that at my favorite local taproom. It is quite popular.

A major difference between Go 1 and Go 2 is who is going to influence the design and how decisions are made. Go 1 was a small team effort with modest outside influence; Go 2 will be much more community-driven. We also would have accepted "Go-go"

they implemented goto ?

A major difference between Go 1 and Go 2 is that one will suck less.

I was hoping that this would be about the Chinese inventing a new game, because a computer beat their champion.
The second game in a series is usually the best one of the series.

I love the childlike naivety that by trying to engage the community they can do breaking changes without splitting the developerbase.
I hope they can avoid anything on the scale of the Python 2->3 debacle and get >90% of new development onto v2 within a year or two; but companies that aren't filthy rich techbrotard nerdfests generally have better things to do than rewriting working software just for the sake of doing a rewrite; so any major changes are going to result in apps running on the legacy stack for a number of years.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Unbelievable. Really unbelievable that they can be proud of, and waste so much time on, such garbage.
The words "bunch", "pricks". "oF", and "useless" come to mind, but not in that order.
