Another POV here, I moved from Visual Studio after using it for over 15 years. For me, Atom is fucking fast. Lack of UML diagramming, database designer and TFS integration is a blessing in disguise.
They don't have to turn the meter on, especially after their shift when they are driving back to the lot. One more thing, if you pick up a yellow cab, or a "car service", when they are off the clock, you don't have to…
Agreed. I'm native, born and raised, and learned about "gypsy cabs", "car service" and how to hail a yellow cab back when yellow cabs still had "jump seats". Uber has democratized what affluent people have always known,…
As others have said, if the cab has the "on duty" light on, just get in. If, and the happens a lot late at night, the cab does not have the on duty light on you can negotiate. I've gotten steep discounts or even free…
I'm almost done with seveneves and the thing that gets me is how defensive his wrighting has become. He explains every semi-technical concept in excruciating detail as if he expects an army of angry nerds to tear the…
You are right of course. I'm no longer the target market. I Spend most of my time in the bubble of Manhattan or the rapidly gentrifying parts of Brooklyn, where subways seem to be disappearing, replaced with cute little…
Subway has a brand problem,most people no longer want the cheapest food around and those that do will go to food trucks or places more "authentic". Subway is now viewed as everything wrong with American food. For one…
I actually use it. I'm not serious about web development though, I just do it for my job. I also use Python Tools for Visual Studio, but that is a different story.
Let him go on good terms. If he stays with the understanding he can do various side projects on company time you are both compromising. You get half a developer and he still has to do tasks he doesn't want to do. This…
I am not a coach or trainer. I am just a developer trying to remain sane. I tend to believe that any thoughtful process can work as long as you stick to it. It just so happens I do agile/scrum. I believe that at its…
They have random DB admins "running" the community however they feel at that moment and according to how much bad press they are getting. If it were me, like game companies hiring economists, I would hire an ethicist…
I gotta think that this is because reddit admins don't seem to present a united front to users or mods and they can't figure out how to fix it. It seems like there is serious dissension among admins regarding…
As a native New Yorker who grew up not exactly well off I think this is article misses a few things. It is different to be born and raised here than to move here. People have large support systems in the form of…
A Patek Phillipe 3940g costs around 40k-50k. With several more zeros that is what, 4 million? You gave up a 4 million dollar watch for a Pebble Steel? I mean, the point of a 4million dollar watch isn't even to tell…
For people under a certain age, minecraft is the Internet. If handled correctly, it will be Facebook, email, Skype and damn near everything else to an entire generation of users. Notch didn't really see it. He created…
What I find interesting about all these services is they are sort of a democratization of how the affluent always lived. An ex of mine worked as a sort of housekeeper for a wealthy couple and those were all tasks she…
I think this is a great idea, and wonder why it took so long. I'd love to be able to take my glasses off and read in bed, or take my glasses off for a few hours at work while in front of my monitor.
Pretty common for companies to have a 90 day probation period for new hires where they can fire you for any reason or no reason at all. Would be great if employees could just walk away after 90 days with absolutely no…
What I meant was if you already know the time and location, say you know what time the barista left work and the lat/Lon of the coffee shop. It would just be a matching it up with the data in the table to find the drop…
I think the way cabs actually operate in NYC makes this practically impossible unless you already have some details such as the lat/Lon of dropoff and pickup and time of the stops. I'm assuming the data is for yellow…
I wouldn't say that. Swift must be in part an effort to stave off C#/Unity/Xamarin. Imagine if Microsoft got a significant foothold into the iOS development tool chain.
I figure how Elop pitched himself was "Let's try something crazy, and hey, we always have a plan B, I have an in at Microsoft." CEOs may have significant power, but they can't just sell the company with no buy in from…
Looks pretty cool, especially autoupdate. I'm going to take a closer look at this. AFAIK, MS has dropped support for installshield LE in VS 2013 leaving developers with the choice of buying installshield, using NSIS, or…
I don't think it is sinister, or a conspiracy, just the kind of coordinated rebranding and messaging modern corporations do all the time. I don't think it takes a PR genius to say "why don't we wait until after Ballmer…
My suspicion is that Ballmer's departure was choreographed to coincide with seemingly "sudden" 360 to make it seem like some sort of internal revolution instead of a carefully planned business strategy. I certainly…
