This is what senior developers learn to do: they learn how to give people what they want by being resourceful with existing software."

I would love to see more technical articles and books written with the same level of clarity.

Hyrum's Law states that "With a sufficient number of users of an API,
it does not matter what you promise in the contract:
all observable behaviors of your system
will be depended on by somebody."

Putting it simply: "there is no such thing as a private implementation."

The ideal technical solution is one in which the required function is achieved by itself, without introducing new mechanisms or additional energy costs into the system.

" In a word if you tell me you have a personality problem I am not certain until I know you better whether to say “Good!” or “I’m sorry.” It depends on the reasons. And these, it seems, may be bad reasons, or they may be good reasons. "

I like writing articles that help myself not once afterwards.

This case is because of being a rare user of #lldb for #rustlang #debugging.

At last I've found a comprehensible article on #Emacs #buffers managing.

The #article is well-named:
Demystifying Emacs’s Window Manager.

Short intro by the author:

"In this article I'll demystify how Emacs's window manager works and how you – with a bunch of templates and examples – can build IDE-like paneling; prevent annoying popup windows; or promote tab-based workflows."

I had hard time today trying to find a full list of #HTML #entities to search in it.

The best I could find for my use case was

Since this was still not exactly what I was hoping for, does anyone know a good alternative?
