Wow, that is a great tip. Auto-completion and color coding.

Build tool. Not app code. How is security relevant here?

That's not a static car on the class. It's on the instance! A static class property would entail something like `Foo.unmounted = true` (a bad idea).

Swoosh

You are probably on to something. Most Norwegians are so used to being protected as consumers so a lot of the time they are taken by surprise when acting as professionals.

That's perhaps in Poland, the Baltics and the former Soviet Block. France, Germany, Norway, etc will promptly put 100+K€ on the table for an experienced consultant in some niche.

Some people don't care about people.

Why on earth would it not apply to programmers? We accumulate just as much cruft, if not much more, than the usual person. I have old 8086s, Atari's, tons of computer peripherals for ports I no longer have, etc. Most of it chucked away in some attic (somewhere). We gather stuff that obsoletes fast than anything, besides food. And we as a industry produce it too: I had a Nokia 3110 for close to a decade. Now my phones seldom last me two years.

Really interested in hearing if the ideas on how to transform game programming into a more productive form panned out. Did you end up using the ideas in a later product?

This is known for decades. If you drop too fast over too long period of time your metabolism changes base burn rate and you will have a hard time losing fat/staying the same weight once your normalize your diet. There is a reason diets like PSMF at restricted to 1-2 weeks. Not healthy over time.

Finally some meat to the discussion. This thread is one of the few to actually dig into the matter. Kudos.

Where does he say that?

There are lots to say/critique on that manifest, but Yonatan's commentary piece is pure dishonest bile. Ironically it also strengthens the claim of an authoritarian regime at Google and its "our way or the highway" policy when facing discussions.

The piece is simply garbage. It was an ad hominem that attacks viewpoints the original author never presented, such as "... how women and men are intrinsically different and we should stop trying to make it possible for women to be engineers". Quite the opposite.
