If a developer claims the badge of mid-level-plus but doesn’t feel at ease in at least the five principal paradigms—they are a pompous fool, and you should show them the door.

По итогам теста выяснилось, что разница в деградации батарей между моделями с ультрабыстрой (120 Вт) и стандартной (18 Вт) зарядкой составила в среднем всего 0,3 %. Это позволяет сделать вывод, что использование мощных зарядных устройств практически не влияет на износ аккумулятора в долгосрочной перспективе.

Во второй серии тестов проверялось, насколько полезно поддерживать уровень заряда в диапазоне от 30 % до 80 %. Сравнение с режимом полной разрядки до 0 % и зарядки до 100 % показало преимущество «умеренного» режима. При этом разница в состоянии батарей составила 2,5 %.

I've written a number of little scripts over the years, many of which I use every day. Here's a little collection.

People have different names for the colors they see. Language can affect how we memorize and name colors. This is a color naming test designed to measure your personal blue-green boundary.

How do you know what hourly rate you are worth? What factors should be taken into account? Here are my criteria.

In many other languages, you have to not only evaluate testing libraries, but also write your tests in a style that complies with that library’s expectations. Gophers are blessed to have a thoroughly adequate solution out-of-the-box, and even further blessed to have an active ecosystem where folks are making in-depth testing a walk in the park.

Alex tells us that, for him, baking and cooking are easier than programming and soldering, because the errors there average out. As for me, this is completely inverse.

In programming, an error never fixes itself. You can observe it and fix it, you can write tests. You can run the program multiple times. It's you who fixes it, and you can understand how it's done. It's measurable!

Meanwhile, cooking is a nightmare. Burning something is routine for me. Is that too much or too little oil? For how long do I fry? What do I do with these spices? Do they really affect the taste? And to observe something, I can't rely on symbolic things like text. No, I have to look (is this color good? No idea!), smell (as if I know the difference) and taste (nothing more inaccurate).

I'm happy when something can be cooked with a timer. 15 min for buckwheat? I'm in. I'm more happy when the time is short. 4 min for this thin kind of spaghetti? Already boiling water!

I mean, even boiling water is not simple. My parents told me to wait until the correct bubbles appear. I'm waiting for the scary ones. Also, salt is supposed to make it boil faster. How much salt do I add?

And I didn't even talk about plants, which Alex also considers easy. They're not 😭

Totally agree!

Now I use my inbox as a to do list of sorts. Emails are only there as long as they're relevant. Confirmation of a table reservation at a restaurant? It's at most relevant until the date of the booking has past. Archive it.

repost from bouncepaw:
Если делать дизайн только из красного света, то глаза не будут терять ночное видение, потому что ночные палочки не замечают красный свет. Так-то толку от этого мало, но в некоторых случаях супер-полезно. Например, морякам и астрономам.
