Agreed. It's easy to handwave it off. Americans churn out propaganda and inject it into every form of media it can. Similar to preservatives, some media is more nitrate than meat. …

The cheapest way to scale mental problems is to use the state to replace the father's role in a family. I know plenty of large families with perfectly well adjusted kids. I can't s…

Hopefully it'll be dead before then. Sociopathic power whores create and ride these grand gestures everytime the old gestures start to slow down.

When you have a lot of kids, the older ones take care of the younger ones. 8 isn't too different from 4

Guilded over discord in my opinion. More features like forums in a channel. Long term, I only see discord and their company culture turning it into twitch or other zealot infested …

Salesforce doesn't care. There about to roll out slack-first infrastructure that turns slack into the only chat-based CRM. Their core users aren't on the free model. They're paying…

The author is being overly semantic about a widely observed phenomenon in order to sling his devops. He's saying the phrase isn't good because a 10x developer given grunt work coul…

Cities in the US with strong public transit have only ended up building moving toilets for the homeless. There are a number of bigger issues that come first before billions more in…

Traverse these trees diligently: https://roadmap.sh/frontend https://roadmap.sh/backend Every year learn a programming language that is a whole new paradigm. Stack-based FORTH, a L…

If it was a screenshot of a notepad window, maybe.

One of the teams I oversee works exclusively with FS. Here's the gist from my POV. It's hard to get fired from the bank. This leads to a downward spiral. Good developers are pushed…

Probably not, but generation focus is pretty good at connecting companies with specific subsets of users. I know they already maintain a list of current heroku devs.

I can only speak about render.com which I've seen recommended several times. I was thoroughly unimpressed. Heroku is my go to when I want to spend no more than 5 minutes getting a …

The entire discussion here will devolve into why it's okay to use censorship against my enemy because they are evil and I am virtuous.

Do what they do as in have a high-trust, heterogeneous society?

Your skill at a job doesn't equate to your value as a person. A job is just a way I and most others contribute back to the world. It's in everyone's best interest if there aren't u…

It's more interesting for many to believe that AI could be so powerful that we run into fantastical problems like what you described. That's the only reason I've been able to come …

The best option is not to go. I had also done full time programming for clients from age 15 on. 5 years after that I got opportunities to lead small projects. 10 more years after t…

Modern day catastrophism

You also shouldn't test business logic. Your test code is more likely to be a liability than an asset when it isn't testing your codebase's core infrastructure.

True. A lot of corporate policies are to never handle physical client documents. Scan them and send them to a secure drive.

They missed out on all that AIM avatar money. We could have had "Blingee powered by Unisys"

People are wary of these God-complex "elites" and their entourage of sociopaths wherever they go. It doesn't matter if it's them getting into Bitcoin or them getting into soup kitc…
