I disagree. There are crafts people who do awesome woodwork, but woodworking is a hell of a lot easier to learn that software development. Also, my dad was a welder, a very good on…

Everyone I know that "treats it like a day job" falls down on keeping their skills up to date. This is a tough field and to do it well, you are studying a lot.

It's creepy how the surveillance state is edging its way into our homes so voluntarily. Look at all the IoT projects with cameras and this Amazon Echo device. All a subpoena away. …

Too bad the business model of VMS was so bad, eh? UNIX, and more to the point, KILLED VMS on every front. And yes, I have had the displeasure of having to use VMS and code in it an…

The security community has been chasing these issues in UNIX for what? 40 years? It's a definite issue.

I personally don't think an item is particularly dangerous lacking the intent to use it. I'm tired of the breathless stories about people forgetting their concealed weapons and the…

I don't feel safer when government puts a soft glove around its forceful nature, though. Look, we need to keep bombs off of planes, I understand that. But TSA isn't all that succes…

They don't want to hear it.

Crikey, speak the truth on here, get a downvote. Like clockwork!

You'll downvote me for saying this but...a lot of people can't manage money. You give someone $100 or pay off all their debts or whatever and they'll just be right back in a mess i…

Loved the article, but holy hell medium.com is a bastion of dishonest journalism! I'd move the tensorflow article somewhere else!

I have had the same issues, but you have to know when to pick up a phone.

You're the only one. Commuting SUCKS!

I don't know where you live, but the stress of commuting alone has led me to want to get out of the business. Companies have got to smarten up! There's no earthly reason why dedica…

Wow. That's...disturbing...

Gambling has always been a tax for the mathematically illiterate. Casino gambling has always been a scam and this proves it--whenever someone too clever comes along, they run right…

But it doesn't matter how it gets funded, it will always be chronically under-funded! I have watched this going on for thirty years! There is something inherently wrong with public…

Well, we have thrown welfare at what? Three generations now? How has that worked out? It hasn't. We're right back where we began but now with three generations of people who have n…

Focus on what I said: You can never achieve that. The wealthy will always find ways to undo whatever leveling you attempt. The elite social class in the US is its own little societ…

Why do I get downvoted for offering what is thoughtful criticism? I'm not just some nobody who walked in off the street and I have actual credentials and experience teaching higher…

I was referring the India and China.

Ha! I found out the same thing teaching college students!

I think what he/she meant is that higher education has become the new high school. What we need is a restoration of secondary school education, not "universal college degrees." Tha…

What do they do besides make the population so desperate to escape poverty that they will push their kids to the brink of madness to study for exams that are make or break for thei…

All that considered, I would still rather see higher education and big-time farm-league sports (football & basketball) divorced. Big time sports are nothing but a drag on the missi…
