Well the President thinks it will go away when it's warm out. He is trying to play to stock market fears and is failing all of the citizens.

The three major things I did was automate everything, document everything and require justification in every task I do. Whenever I had a task that recurred more than once, the seco…

You don't need to write a server to use it. You need to recognize you're using the wrong tool to solve your problem. I've used SQLite as an embedded database, as a log file, it's e…

For most PLC customers this is a no-go. They aren't in the market to save money on hardware. They save money by reducing downtime and eliminating failures. Without certifications f…

My two year old can read numbers up to 10. It takes a little while to go from the symbol to the amount but generally speaking she can do it. It's typically around 2 where you can s…

I've found that while I can keep a lot in my head, my ability to prioritize doesn't maintain the life of the thoughts. Everything is some form of Todo list but they range from task…

No. What you're describing is the problem people have when teaching/providing insight/responding to questions online. They all use their current understanding and apply it to the q…

Whenever a non-technical person makes these claims I wish someone would standup and ask what sort of repercussions they believe would be acceptable for breaking the law and using t…

I wouldn't event say it was a cost issue. It was much more security through fences. When hardly any systems were connected together it was far more difficult for the non-authoritie…

>they are willing to sacrifice their rights to ensure the laws on illegal information are enforced. I think you meant to say "sacrifice everyone's rights." This isn't an opt in sce…

The next question needs to be (assuming they feel it should be allowed) is do they feel there should be allowances for someone to be above this law? In our current climate we are s…

I always found them to be funny BECAUSE all they showed off was speed and a new camera. Past the first iPhone release much of the technology was already in Android phones before Ap…

Really just depends on what you wanted to specialize in. My degree is basically the VLSI portion of an Electrical Engineer and Operating Systems portion of a CS degree. There were …

Isn't the issue of being selective on who can view the content? If I, random Joe User views the publicly available content you have no issue. But if someone scrapes that data them …

You basically have to look at the availability and cost of transport of the goods. Salt was abundant in the Dead Sea area so the need to import salt would have been pretty low. As …

I totally concur. It took me over a year, after being the lead developer for a decade with tons of technical and business experience. Thank goodness for digital resumes cuz I sent …

I once has the most honest interviewer ever ask me: > Where do you see yourself in 3 to 5 years? I gave my typical response of technical lead, driving projects from the engineering…

In this context I think they are the same.

Can I ask why? I came from low level language background but my "fun programming" went from Lisps to MLs and now I have difficulties going back to Lisps for projects. Always wanted…

If you are writing in a Functional paradigm you'll most likely create a lot of small functions that perform very direct actions and then chain them all together to get a more robus…

I've been working my way through all the sci-fi and mystery radio shows on archive.org over the past few years and there have definitely been some cringe worthy material. Gender ro…

The start of your working relationship is really important. I'll get interview offers all the time and if the compensation is off by more than 3% I just tell them no, due to compen…

>> People who currently have good jobs are unwilling to consider contract-to-hire > In US, there is practically no difference between those three. You can be fired any day anyway. …

The thing I have never heard anyone talk about is what the repercussions should be for those asking for a back door when the door is used by malicious actors. We have seen companie…
