    I would start with asking the backend and front-end developers to learn Laravel and begin using it. All code review should be quite strict. It's going to suck for a while, but that…

    Hey guys, Last week I was at my grandfather's funeral and learned that during a bombing run as a tail gunner, his team failed to hit a target in Nazi Germany. The bombs were using …

    I have met a physicist at Perimeter Institute who went all the way to Engineering at Master level and pivoted to Physics PhD. If he could do that, I'm sure you can. I do not rememb…

    I suspect it's more for VR and 8k bump on output is cheap compared to helping Samsung and LG sell their 8k models.

    That's not true. KYC is for preventing money laundering and terrorist financing. You do NOT want the RCMP/FBI asking why you permitted terrorists to use your platform.

    Having read Three Roads to Quantum Gravity, I think there's a lot of substance there. It's a book made to even include high schoolers, so you have to give it some benefit of the do…

    Given the title, I expected this to be about how PG improved their counting. This is not what it was about. I remember working over half a billion records and having problems when …

    Yeah... I did that too when I was homeless. More with Tim's though instead of Starbucks when I got my PNA; now BNA. Although, when I look back, it would have been smarter not to ha…
