    The do, frequently. I'm told daily that America did something. As a Canadian, we just accept that you guys have no idea how continents or countries work.

    Wasn't microsofts version Groove become SkyDrive (now OneDrive)?

    It is, but it's a far more nuanced version. Lack of funds is more leadership to blame. Getting sued by a patent troll, is what we all hope our side projects avoid long enough to ob…

    Son of a bitch, thanks for that first tip. But this speaks to a greater problem of feature discoverability on these devices.

    I'm confused. Terraforming is 1000+ years away, if we are ever even able to do it at all. I'm unclear of what you mean by 'small levels' because either you are terraforming, or you…

    I have 20 years of experience with SQL Server, and zero experience with PostgreSQL. You aren't the target market, but I certainly am.

    And it would help the applicants, if the bashing is justified.

    Great examples. I was completely ignorant of the great Chinese famine, and didn't realize how high the death tolls of the other events you mentioned were. Thanks for educating me.

    "the danger that about 20 million people in four countries will suffer famine in the coming months, and that hundreds of thousands of children will starve to death." This does not …

    How much of a concern is this? Do we now need to use SHA512 for everything, or is this more of an academic vulnerability that we won't see in the wild?

    So if our sun were replaced by Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse would engulf all the inner planets. That's huge. It's hard to fathom a star that big.

    How is angular making the web slower. An angular project can sit somewhere in the 130kb range, with lighter frameworks like vue sitting at 30kb. These are smaller than most images …

    I'm not saying this shouldn't have consequences. What I'm saying is this is far too nuanced to just say "lock up the CEO"

    But what law specifically was broken? Should we have a law that punishes the CEO for data breeches? Is a CEO responsible if his experts recommended the practice? Is the CEO respons…

    When I worked for a telco, you could easily call the voice mail main line, and then just use options to leave a voicemail in any mailbox. Easy peasy.

    yeoman is pretty good. It gives the option of interactive or command line. Reasonable use of colour, with some layout formatting. Dynamic options.

    Everyone makes mistakes. This one hurts, but they aren't trying to sweep it under the rug.

    Honestly, trying to stay current on all the new technologies is causing me anxiety. After 20+ years at this, I always felt I was one step behind. But now I feel I'm 3 steps behind.…

    Don't blame me for some of those things, blame my clients. I can only suggest so many times that something is bad practice, without getting fired.

    Fair point. When in the office, we talkt about SELinux, it's always in the Red Hat/Fedora ecosystem. So I conflated the two.
