Rants and raves about coding and tech. Mostly rants. Maybe some raves. But no dancing.

Maybe the only place the Material Design system makes sense is in Android app UIs. Apple has its own UI design standards, so it makes sense for Android to have its own as well. Getting developers to actually *use* it is a whole other discussion. 🤡
Why is Material Design the go-to UI system these days? IT SUCKS! There are SO MANY other good libraries: Semantic UI, Chakra, Ant Design, Blueprint, Elemental UI, and good old Bootstrap. #justsayno to Material!!! #materialdesign #materialui

The 'gotcha' questions are the worst and totally pointless. They're usually asked by someone who's insecure, either with their skills or position. What's better? Discussing issues with the candidate to evaluate their problem-solving skills.
Replying to @jjeffryes
For your tech interview, avoid gotcha or memorization questions. They are non-predictive. My metrics say the most predictive questions for developers are: 1. Explain a basic aspect of the language being tested. 2. How did you fix bugs related to that.

Why are @Firefox and @Apple #Safari the only browsers that have this feature built-in? I'm looking at you, @googlechrome, @MicrosoftEdge, and @opera! Why should we need an extension to switch to tab as soon as we open it??? #nerdproblems
Choose: 2 x 24" @ 1920x1080 …or… 1 x 34" @ 3440 x 1440 You can only choose @Dell because their corporate sales rep is sleeping with your CTO. dell.com/en-us/work/shop/del… dell.com/en-us/work/shop/del…

Whatever the fine folks who develop #Firefox did with the recent versions… THANK YOU. It's a joy to use again. I propose to those suffering through #Chrome's 10GB+ memory usage - switch to Firefox (again).

Any other Mac-using #webdev peeps rocking a 10-year-old fully pimped Mac Pro 5,1? The performance is still great for IDEs and VMs, but it's crazy that a little M1 Mac mini can run circles around it. (even though RAM and internal storage is very limited) #classicmacpro
Finally found the boot disk...

Now we ask: "There are only 373 components in this UI framework? That's very compact." 🙄
All Logitech products are crap. #changemymind
