Exactly this. This holds true of any activity, but especially those which take more time from family. It takes two to make the family unit work. But be prepared at some point to pa…

Googles' model is to allow apps without pre-screening. This model (trust but verify) lends itself to having more spammy apps submitted to it (no proof, just an educated guess). Goo…

This even includes some bad police work. Because since the developer didn't post a single app of this type after the initial suspension google could have easily identified all apps…

Comparing streaming of books to streaming of music or streaming of TV/Movies is comparing apples and oranges. I don't think any past data will prove very relevant. For one, the con…

There should be only one question from the rep: Is there anything we can do to change your mind? If the customer responds with anything indicating a willingness to discuss rates or…

This is really dependent on how much of the "developer" role is developing and how much is software engineering. Are the developers literally taking design documents (UML diagrams,…

Keeping it cash? No. Putting it in a 401K, IRA, or market based account certainly does have much greater benefits. And of course, once that grows you can most certainly retire afte…

Or you could say the opposite is true: Lawyers are only needed when you have the freedoms that a society needs.

Luck is the combination of preparation and opportunity. You may find the best job for you when you aren't looking if someone reaches out to you. Kind of hard if you don't know they…

I know this is picking nits, but that just simply isn't true. There isn't always the same output for every single input. That's why there's race condition errors. AI Systems will a…

Did you happen to see if he remembered that initial call first? Sometimes those "cold call" type (almost want to use the word drones) just phase out the after they hear no.

of course the irony to this quote is to look at the number of companies which were bought out by Walt Disney, HP, Intel, and Apple... Not saying he's wrong.. just that those purcha…

First and foremost, I think this is a good cause,so please don't take this as a negative against the goal. Second, I have not read the rules for donating/being on the reigstry so I…

Then it gets worse... Then it gets better.. Then it gets worse.. Then it gets better... I'm not sure how long that loop lasts.. But dealing with teething, sickness, going from crib…

Even though I never give references until an offer has been agreed to, I generally will not give my current manager for various reasons -- first it is just way too awkward.

Messages: This is the implementation issue and one of rights anyway. If I send a message to a friend, what right do I have to delete it from their in-box or sent items if they save…

I really wonder how much of that is because the EU is made up of many countries and these countries want to protect their own. It's kind of similar to how the breach disclosure rul…

You definitely MUST have that heart to heart conversation with him. You should also spell out what is expected over that 60 day time frame. Make sure that the goals are well define…

How much more of a salary should be expected in a position that requires some travel (breakdown of say: 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) versus those that do not (in general) require travel? S…

Xerox might have something to say about that. Considering they were widely regarded as having the first Graphical UI. And some of the first Mac team came from Xerox. Who knows what…

Seems to counter itself with a statement like: "Parents still report feeling a greater sense of purpose and meaning in their lives than those who've never had kids." Obviously if o…

This isn't meant to be sarcastic or condescending, but isn't programming at it's fundamentals math and logic? Those are taught early on. I mean, I worked with Logo in 6th grade. So…
