I find myself struggling with somewhat related situation, everything in my life is going good, happily married and a great job that I love however I find myself wanting to watch the world burn, I get excited about the…
Junior developer salaries here are low enough that people just change industry. It's also not just about the salary but the way that they work. That all being said there are start ups out here that do look for…
I work out in Asia and over here a big reason for ageism in tech is a misunderstanding of development talent, there is a belief that coders are coders and that's all there is to it, young coders tend to be willing to…
"Don't push buttons if you don't know what they do!" That statement makes me a little sad, it's pretty much the exact opposite of the way I was brought up and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be where I am without the freedom…
Greater Los Angeles - 87,490 km2 England - 130,279 km2 87,490 * 1.5 = 131,235 Pretty close if you ask me.
An anti-corruption drive is nearly always just a power shift. Look at the various ones in China, it's never about corruption and more about one branch of the political elite taking out another.
Almost every time we have a BBQ or other outside event someone buzzes a drone overhead and just sits there watching us. Almost every time I go out hiking I hear the high pitched whine of a drone flying around the…
I'm pretty sure that's half of the point, stop any radicals from forming large followings.
This whole index funds outperform actively managed funds claim needs a lot more context. I always see adverts from people like Vanguard claiming such things but they are always just talking about raw returns they never…
Our Bloomberg usage these days is pretty much entirely the chat. I think the only other feature that gets regular use is the excel plugins.
It was a joke, relax.
I guess things have moved on from this Perl-Vista nightmare, I was personally looking forward to having all the coders around me screaming at their desktops in a fit of frustration and rage.…
That's pretty crazy, how do these people exist and get jobs? What kind of development were they supposed to be doing?
> and there's more genuine fear of hiring someone who can't fizzbuzz. I always hear this fear proclaimed but have never heard an actual story of a candidate failing to fizzbuzz, would love to hear an anecdote or two…
That's because it has nothing to do with skin colour and everything to do with the age old religious concept of light and darkness. However people will find a reason to get upset about anything so at this point it might…
Oh dear, what's next? Gender neutral electrical connectors?
I always find the use of per capita GDP as measure of development as a rather strange measure of development. You could have a country with massive oil reserves or similar natural resource wealth that would have a very…
"There are many popular trends that I believe are not suitable for every situation" Doesn't that statement apply to pretty much everything? Horses for courses and all that.
One part of the article I really don't understand, "The researchers relied on the millions of transaction records that are captured on the public ledgers of all virtual currency transactions, known as the blockchain, to…
Do you have the scourge of zero hour contracts in the US? Basically a person can be contractually obligated to work when demanded but with no guarantees of minimum hours or salary.
I wonder how much the true cost is to the driver, not only are they having to pay fuel costs but the more miles a car does the less it's worth. It's almost like swap deal, swapping the future value of your car in return…
Interestingly where I live Ubers are usually 50% more expensive than taxis.
I wonder how kids today get away with texting in class, that was like the height of spy craft when you'd be texting a friend in your pocket while pretending to be writing notes on what the teacher was saying.
On a similar to theme to the ever present facebook button, I wonder how much tracking Google is able to do through Google fonts, an absolute ton of sites use Google's CDN to deliver fonts to your browser.
