. 10,000 years ago is about when we developed agriculture, stopped roaming as much, and started writing in some form that could survive the millennia

This is bias towards a specific type of societal structure.

Lots of peoples with rich, complex and fascinating cultures continued to live successful nomadic lives for centuries past the introduction of agriculture.

Poe's law.

In a 4-D chess move, by canceling everything with no resolution, they've made their shows not worth pirating by making them not worth watching.

I thought it was a balance between new shows getting better engagement than old shows, and contracts lasting 3 seasons, which required re-negotiations in favor of the talent. Basically a business model hyper-focused on subscriber growth metrics instead of subscriber retention.

Everything is in the link.

I didn't have an answer for a very long time. Or more seriously, the answer was "the one that paid the most". I've run the gamut of popular languages, C, C++, Java, Javascript, perl, ruby, Python, Visual Basic, VB.Net, C# and F#.

But the last couple years it's really been C#. The pace of development on the language/runtime has really picked up with yearly releases. The features that are added and iterated on are expressive and intuitive. You can tell from the discussion posts on how a feature is being considered for inclusion is thoughtful and deliberate. It really feels like the language is in good hands.

Just wish those hands weren't Microsoft.

It's probably time to stop recommending Clean Code

We can only assume this was all a negotiation tactic, where they start with an unreasonable position, and force devs to accept an imbalanced (but manageable) fee structure they would have rejected.

I say that, but I also assumed that is what Reddit was doing, but they went full steam towards stupid town, so ymmv.

Yes, I couldn't recommend htmx highly enough.

Web & mobile development took a wrong tern 10 million miles back, and no one wants to turn the car around and admit it.

Yes, and the people directly contributing to the project have legitimate gripes. Although, the parable of dhh is if you get on an asshole scorpions back, don't be surprised if you get stung. Dudes been an unreasonable prick for nearly 20 years now.

My comments directed at the manufactured outrage from the tooling zealots incapable of having a mature conversation. Or even accept a difference of opinion. The number of comments that start with, "never heard of Turbo, but let me weigh in on why you're an idiot for not liking Typescript. " is very telling...

I continue to be baffled and amused by the complete meltdown of the typescript community over the actions of a single man on a single package. The only people who have legitimate gripes are those that had been actively contributing and whose work was erased. The rest of you are acting absurdly childish. The anger and vitriol being thrown at anyone who disagrees on how to write javascript would make me embarrassed if I was associated or involved in the ts community.
