I'd go with "Climate Protesters Vandalize Stonehenge"

What would you call it when AI doesn't have the answer so it makes stuff up (sometimes in a dangerous way)?

I worked on a GraphQL API a few years ago and we solved these problems at the beginning and then forgot about them. We generated the schema for a user from their CanCan abilities (CanCan can handle attribute-level access, I wrote the PR). Shopify has support gems for the N+1 stuff, if I remember correctly. You can limit how many levels deep your query can go. We added some rate limiting.

Basically, these are all solved problems.

This is a blast from the past. What a crazy place the early internet was. I remember just striking up random conversations with random people with ICQ. My friends and I used it a lot. AOL's acquisition and changes killed it for us. It pushed us all over to IRC.

How many "Amber"'s do we need?

e.g. https://github.com/amberframework/amber

https://amber-lang.net/

I'm probably grumpy, but I like unique names.

Yeah, I grew up in the 80's.

I also have a lot of fond memories of getting on my bike and going pretty much anywhere I wanted to.

An anecdote:

My neighbor came into my yard and threatened to call the police on me because my 14-year-old-at-the-time son was up on our roof helping me. I went to grab a tool we left on the other side of the roof and she "panicked because I left him by himself and he could have fallen off and died".

In comparison to when I was a kid: my siblings and I would get the ladder to climb up on the roof when my parents weren't home. One time my sister thought it would be funny to steal the ladder, so I jumped down from the roof and chased her. I was 11-years-old at the time.

I grew up in a rural area. My kids in an urban area.

I've also jumped down from that roof several times. I probably could have died.

I looked it up because I was curious. Jolie stands for Java Orchestration Language Interpreter Engine.

Could the explanation be that being a whistleblower is really stressful and hard on your health?

Or... atheists like quality for other reasons?

Saying "some people associate quality workmanship with their belief in God" doesn't mean:

1. all religious folks care about quality workmanship

2. all people who care about quality workmanship are religious

"What made you want to switch to the employee-owned model?"

"I came up here to study the Bible, and the Bible says to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. And so there’s an element of how you treat people that impressed me. And sharing in the profit, sharing in the company to make things more fair and more benevolent impressed me, and I felt strongly about it."

It's always interesting to me to see how Christianity intersects with capitalism.

Prism is interesting. Any Ruby code analysis tools that use it? I've been looking for ways to analyze my code at work.

RSpec is a domain-specific language for testing written in Ruby. It isn't a great example of vanilla Ruby, in my opinion.

Because you can take something and divide it into zero equally sized groups

For me, yeah, I might have the self control, but I also live in a society. What other people do affects me. For example, I don't want the people with an alcohol problem to have unlimited access to alcohol. I drive on the same roads as them.

I should be more clear. I'm talking about pursuing novelty for the sake of novelty.

Grumpy. I don't use them, it's another thing I have to remember, and it makes the parser more complicated.

It's interesting to see "there are no Ruby jobs" comments while working at a company that hires from outside the country because we can't find enough developers locally.

Maybe a python killed their dad.

Ruby was heavily influenced by Lisp and Smalltalk, so I think is great if you want learn object-oriented principles or something Lisp-y.

I'm looking forward to this series. I feel like I'm getting "grumpy old man" syndrome with Ruby. I've been using Ruby for long time and I feel like a lot of the changes we get now are more "wouldn't it be cool if..." instead of "this is a really solid, useful addition" changes

That said, I do really like how Elixir does some things.

Apparently, this was the last in a series: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marina_Abramovi%C4%87#Career

ABOUT

You can refresh the captcha. I had to a couple of times.

I thought the naming of "clojure" was brilliant; it is unique to search on and memorable. I don't understand why other languages aren't named using the same principles, especially the ones that are clojure-related.

Can you really divorce design from appearance? My first clue of how to use something is how it looks.

I use VS Code and I've found Thunder Client to be handy: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rangav.v...

My kids like it better than any other distro. I've donated a bit of money from time to time because that's what my kids use.

I've found that when I'm planning things I tend to use Google Maps, but when I get in the car I tend to use Apple maps. I swear there are little differences like Google instructions will be "In X feet... turn right" where Apple is "turn right at the stop sign" which is easier to follow.

The solution is to be religious about testing and writing tests. If you've done it well, refactors are pretty safe and your objects are pretty well understood.
