I agreed with the headline but now I think about it lots of interesting and or funny stuff too. Look at HN as an example.

I started, I just didn't have the time and realized my blog was **. Looking around most other blogs are equally bad. There are some good writers out ther but the majority of tech people aren't.

I agree TS is great. Not really multi threaded kills it for me though.

Liberal arts education will one day be back in fashion.

Can I forget about reactive programming now? Its been fashionable for the last 5+ years, I hate it. Kinda cool to play around with but just seems to double the complexity on everything.

Our HOA has upcoming $1.5mil bill coming for a big job.

The problem with all these banks disappearing is that there are continuously fewer and fewer choices left. Eventually there will be a handful of megabanks and nothing else. I guess this is happening in every industry these days.

In the past I've done a few different ways but now I see strict infosec rules, That part is more important than where it runs. eg My last job we had a workflow where you needed a ticket approved by second eyes, which used CyberArk to create a new remote desktop running a DB IDE where you could do your business. Commands were tracked but no real restriction..

New firm you get your personal account temporary RW permissions via a centralized service.

Its something every support desk should have. I often write my own tools like this. Ideally write a select query, execute it, note how many rows it selets, copy the where clause, start transaction, update using the where clause, execute, check rowcount matches what you selected earlier, commit trans.

Now you know what it feels like to be the rest of the world relying on American tech companies.

In most buildings there is no concrete between walls but floors have a ~1 inch layer of lightweight-concrete, I think for fire resistance, its not solid so you hear every footprint.

I'm not sure about connected, but I do like being able to walk the stairs to the apt, being able to open a door to a balcony. Its also less instrusive to the neighborhood than a tower which overlooks everyone.

Actually its a good thing about our condo is independent heat pumps per unit so everyone gets their own air handler and ducts. Its expensive to replace each one individuall though.

I live in one, it isn't that awesome. Lots of noise from neighbours, but the worst thing is the big fire hazard. The risk of fire means there is a lot of sprinklers everywhere which regularly get damaged and leak everywhere. Usually every 2-3 years in our building a sprinkler pipe will get broken or leak will appear and destroy a few units.

Well in my state generally the wealthiest people live in suburbs and pay all the taxes. The poorest areas are in cities and get the subsidies. So the suburbs are subsidising the cities. And that was before everyone started WFH so downtowns are now really empty.
