I think this is an eggcorn/mondegreen for “all of a sudden”. Seems weird for the WSJ.
There are, in the simplest terms, two hurdles you have to overcome to get hired. 1. Get an interview 2. Interview well enough to get an offer There’s various approaches to either, and it sounds like (1) isn’t a problem?…
System76 used to be rebranded Clevo/Sager laptops. I’m not sure if that’s still the case. You can buy them in various places, customize them, and have them put Linux (or nothing) in it. Or build your own. I paid to have…
We write away the status part of our syncs. Just write it down, we don’t need to hear it. One thing we used at the last two companies I worked at was what we call SWATH—something I invented for reasons of corporate…
Vaccines!
I’ve been through this a few times over the last many years. In one case, joining a team with 3–4 people who have been with a product for 10+ years. And the product was much, much older than that. I would treat it the…
Edward Tufte, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information. It’s probably smart to browse his other titles, Tufte is the Knuth of his field.
We make videos that are exactly 10 seconds in length. Less than three or five at different moments during the day, whatever is happening. It works for us.
Use YouTube and set them to be private.

How much money do you need? I have a small web project that I could use some help with that’s due before the end of the month. If you can do it mostly by yourself, I can offer you $1000CAD. I expect that it would take…
Not the GP, but I read "Thank You for Arguing: What Aristotle, Lincoln, and Homer Simpson Can Teach Us About the Art of Persuasion" by Jay Heinrichs this year, and consider it an excellent intro to classical rhetoric.
I moved from OSX to Linux-only laptop in 2012. I'd intended to dual-boot, but re-installing Windows[1], even by itself, was much, much more pain than I expected; I eventually gave up on it. Go figure. Linux having poor…

I applaud the effort, but this is far from complete. As far as I can tell, you can only do standalone expressions, to the exclusion of anything interesting. Type Haskell expressions in here. > let x = 10 not an…

If you're asking "are there potentially awesome applications of this?" then the answer is probably "yes". If you're asking "is there anything in the wild that I would know of and uses this?" then the answer is probably…
Basically what's going on is this, but with lists: 3 + 5 = X? X = 8 3 + X = 8? X = 5 5 + X = 8? X = 3 In most programming languages, you can't infer a parameter by specifying a result. (Though that's not strictly what's…
