Central Minnesota, here. Our cedar tree always turns purple-ish in the winter - especially last year's fresh growth. However, this is just it winterizing itself. It'll green up again as spring progresses. If yours is anything like ours, I bet it'll be just fine. As long as it's not brittle and disintegrating, I don't think it died.

That said, if it doesn't green up in the next month, then I'd say you may have an issue.

That's honor system, for sure. OpenAI has promised that their bots will honor this line in robots.txt. But unless these companies have implemented some detect-and-block method on their own, there is nothing physically stopping the bots from gathering data anyway.

I think I've learned to get less attached to opinionated terminology in code and database design because I see it happen all the time where the usage of the value/field/thing can evolve naturally over time as the business needs evolve. And refactoring field names (as an example) from UI to database is often a painful exercise, not without significant regression risks. (Depending on the size and complexity of your systems, of course)

So while I totally agree with you and others that ideally naming would be consistent throughout, my real world experience with the issue has taught me that this isn't the hill I die on.

My 2 cents from 10 years experience in the industry.

Oh awesome! That's great to hear! I'm experimenting with the idea of offloading this to an off-device process so that all users can have consistent results regardless of their devices. Unfortunately, that cloud infrastructure is already costing me a decent amount of money... So gotta figure out how to solve that problem as well (without annoying users too much with cost or ads)

This is one of those instances where the "stitch-panorama" feature that I'm experimenting with in my Mars Feed app really produces some cool results! (I also did some light editing in Google Photos before uploading this)

Interesting - my company largely maxing out at Java 9, I often forget about how far Java has come now that it's working on v21 ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Same here. I'm a Tech Lead right now, but I still live in the code. I see myself as on-trajectory to Architect. I have no direct-reports or any of the responsibilities they go with direct-reports. That role is called a Team Lead at my company (which is on-trajectory for management). I stay at from that stuff like the plague ๐Ÿคฎ

I am so incredibly intrigued by this! This might sound like a dumb question, but are there any examples of what this looks like hosted on GitHub? My employer mandates GitHub as a standardized location for enterprise code. So I'm curious if there's a way to live in both worlds at once and not go mad.

Couldn't agree more. We used Crucible as a code reviewing tool, which allowed us to develop directly on main while being able to pick-and-choose commits to add to a review. This closed that CI gap for us in a meaningful way.

However, Crucible seems to be reaching end of life (my company even denied renewal of licenses for it). So now we're forced back into Gitflow, and it's sooooo painful.
