    Don't know about how to get a new job, but I think today is easy to learn many things. Many companies are looking for people that are able to learn by themselves and are motivated …

    The point is not that critical thinking is a useful tool, I agree here. The title is about being a necessary skill. Here I disagree, many people can learn the craft by accumulating…

    Thanks. police are (ok they are more than one). 50-year-old (why not 50-years-old ?). It seems that nouns are created with "-" (merriam-webster agree with you). a long-term solutio…

    Another hypothesis I can adventure is that my karma will be soon below zero, at this moment I have six (6) points, not a big deal to me.

    At first sight I find amusing comparing Ruby to Perl 6. (a=. sort) (a.sort!) (a.what) (a.class) (say a) (puts a) (for @a=>item) (a.each {|item| ..} ) and the similarities, push, sh…

    I think the unix philosophy is the model to follow here. Design an input method just capable of receiving the information and let other applications process your input. Input is al…
