    The whole point was that the jobs would disappear -- if Uber and Lyft back out of smaller cities to be profitable, all of those jobs are gone, which is exactly the point of the per…

    The point isn't that every user will know how to repair their own products, rather that they could if they choose. Think about your lawnmower. If the engine won't run, maybe you ca…

    We've also been around for longer than anyone else with a modern democracy, and our goal is longevity of a sustainable relationship between the people and their government. We have…

    We have 2 eyes and stereo vision... No matter what you put on a screen, it'll be 1-dimensional in the body's ability to discern distance and actual spatial awareness.

    Pretty sure they aren't -- on my PS4 for example, YouTube shows ads just like on PC/mobile, but they're totally unclickable. There's no button for "see more on this ad" or anything…

    To your second point, I'm a fairly young engineer with 1.5 years experience, and I'm not leaving my secure job for a shot at being a good 'cultural fit' for some other company. Fin…

    Not exactly -- more like no matter how much RAM you have, it makes sense for your software to use it all rather than disk. It means that however much you have, your system should u…

    I've never seen that Grace Hopper bit, but that's awesome! Thanks for sharing. Definitely going to show it to some co-workers

    CPU speeds haven't changed much in 10 years, and to be honest, I would argue that performance has been getting worse and is not a priority for many/most developers. The client does…

    Or, why don't you instead move to a poorer country? Since I'm guessing that you won't do that, how about reduce the 8.5 tons number down to something more reasonable in your own co…

    An example where I disagree, and use 1-letter names daily: arrow functions in both Java and JS. `usersList.stream().forEach(u -> someSet.add(u))` It's immediately obvious that u is…

    Market perception matters though, and I know many people -- IT admins included -- who think that Intel is just higher quality. Those people will be hard to capture quickly, and AMD…

    Except that this technique has worked for me after I look at a person too. We make eye contact, then I look to their right and they automatically pass on my left. I think it's more…
