Pretty cool to show that sample size matters a lot during testing...

Sample size = 10: "There's 20% 8! WTF, should be 10%"
Sample size = 10k+: "Oh wait nevermind"

base63? I'd guess you'd mean base64?

Anyways, doesn't that fuck with performance?

I'm using this in production: RT.Comb - That still generates GUIDs, but generates them sequential over time. Gives you both the benefits of sequential ids, and also the benefits of sequential keys. I haven't had any issues or collisions with that

Yea, should have been V-00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000008 instead

Before clicking the link and reading the article I was thinking.. "Why would you put 'Eclipse' in the name? Don't they know that like 10 years ago there used to be this horrible IDE for Java called Eclipse?"

Then opening the link...

Some seven years in the making, the Eclipse Foundation's Theia IDE project is now generally available

Developer: Hey I'm there, where are you?

Fair-ish, but it's still just a public channel - even if you were invited into it.

Like you can right click a channel -> "Change Notifications" -> Nothing. Then @Channel or @Here or even @'th3raid0r' just stops working. And then mute the channel. Not more notifications from the channel. So that's not totally unignorable yet

You can leave a channel, but yea, that triggers a channel notification saying that you've left.

But yea, I don't know to which degree they were 'hunting you down'. At some point it's seems fine to put your foot down.

I put my foot down on that one - called the initiative ableist right in their “party” channel. And stated that if my participation was an issue, then I’d like to request non-participation as a reasonable accomodation for my autism.

I probably would have approached that a bit differently though - on one hand, less hostile, like of name calling them an "ableist" -
And on the other hand, even less compliant and requesting to not participate. I wouldn't really phrase it as a request. If you've been ignoring them so far, and they DM you, wait half an hour to respond and just somewhat politely decline and say "yea, I'm not gonna do that." - and then continue to ignore them some more. By requesting it and asking for accommodations you're already way too far into accepting it as your problem

As long as it's becoming loads of work for them to even get close to anything compliant, the more likely they'll just give up on it

Hmm, maybe I misunderstand what you want to do - but that works fine for me (on windows) - (are you on a different OS)?

Otherwise, try installing Powertoys - that comes with FancyZones and gives you more control over how window snapping should work.

and different tool windows run when debugging so I have to reposition the pane boundary’s again whenever switching between run/design time.

Also isn't this a one-time-activity? Once you've put them in place, for me it remembers where it should be. Otherwise, I suppose in visual studio you can also manually save the layout (Window -> Save Window Layout) and then restore it again later (Window -> Apply Window Layout)

We have seen time and again, especially on Android, that whenever a moderately-popular app goes open-source, it is immediately picked up by unscrupulous developers. They download the source, add obnoxious ads [...]. tracking code [...]. Finally, they publish it to the Play Store

This is a pretty bad argument, especially when you're specifically talking about Android. Android APKs are extremely easy to just download from closed-source, decompile them, and add new things or overwrite existing things.

The argument makes more sense for things that are harder to decompile and recompile

Yea, I wasn't saying it's always bad in every scenario - but we used to have this kinda deployment in a professional company. It's pretty bad if this is still how you're doing it like this in an enterprise scenarios.

But for a personal project, it's alrightish. But yea, there are easier setups. For example configuring an automated deployed from Github/Gitlab. You can check out other peoples' deployment config, since all that stuff is part of the repos, in the .github folder. So probably all you have to do is find a project that's similar to yours, like "static file upload for an sftp" - and copypaste the script to your own repo.

(for example: a script that publishes a website to github pages)

I used to behave like this, and it's not very helpful, and usually turns it into an argument. Just silently ignoring it works much better.

I put my foot down on that one - called the initiative ableist right in their “party” channel. And stated that if my participation was an issue, then I’d like to request non-participation as a reasonable accomodation for my autism.

In your example - marketing sends a message on slack to post something on LinkedIn. You can:

  • Just do it
  • Just not do it
  • Not do it and be (very) vocal about not be willing to do it

Picking the last option and complain is probably the worst thing you can do. You just open a can of worms, and - especially if you do it in a public channel - you put them in a position where have to be defensive or explain themselves.

Basically instead of taking what they say at face value "this is what you must do" - as a real concept - so "therefor you must defend yourself and try to get out of "doing what you must do"" by complaining against it - take a step back before even considering that is really something you must really do. It's not. So just don't do it... but don't throw it in their faces that you're not gonna do it. Haha

Like 99% of these things - if you just silently ignore them, they'll just go away without a fuss.

It's not your problem if you don't do it, so not even worth trying to argue over. It's their problem. And if they think it's a big problem enough they'll probably send some more reminders in public first - like "We see not a lot of people have posted on LinkedIn! Please do, it's very important." - still just ignore it. If at some point they start DMing you about it, that's about the right time to put your foot down and directly tell them you're not going to do it
