He's looking at citywide data rather than "what is happening to the Spanish Mission down around 24th Street," which is where the "uptick of evictions" comes from and also where the protests are. There was a wave of…
Having worked at one of these carriers I can tell you that everyone there trips over themselves to help out law enforcement. Everyone is constantly thinking up new ways to help, particularly if it's a service they can…
Well if you feel like you're bored with mundane stuff you could do what I do and take contract work. Most people think it's terrible and occasionally you get some bad companies but most of the time I am hired for a…
You can't patent or copyright a film technique, this thing would never stand up in a court. Unless they had discovered a new kind of camera that was the only way to take the shot, it is not an invention.
They changed this in the newer machines, it takes your card and gives it back before the rest of the process now. Also emails you a receipt instead of printing one out. Of course, I'd prefer they not print my email on…
Paying those salaries in San Francisco, there better be a giant pile of equity either way.
I'm a contractor (by choice) so I always laugh when they remind me "the contract stipulates that we will not pay for more than 40 hours under any circumstances" because that just means I'm done with the week by…
That isn't his response to the kid's post, it's his response to the original job posting, and it got a lot of points being posted on its own yesterday.
It's not nighttime panic attacks, it's severe sleep apnea. Get to an ENT specialist and save yourself 12 years of hell.
No it would mean you'd have new mandatory sports channels to pay for along with all your other mandatory sports channels.
For all we know the back end of this thing is Steam. Gaben has been talking about changing Steam so anyone can make a storefront, and Humble makes a lot of sense as a test lab: they're already competent at sales and…
By not deploying code directly to the running servers he's adding bureaucratic overhead to the development process rather than getting rid of it. He's putting his people in as active gatekeepers in a way that hasn't…
It makes for a nice change, since there was a long period of time where they downvoted any mention of women at all.
At this point there isn't one language for game devs. Even companies that strictly develop for PC tend to do their engine in C++ and then extend the ide with a scripting language like lua or python. Civilization 4 is a…
In the 80s we acted faster on freon/CFCs than we have on climate change in the ensuing 30 years, with less danger to human life and less evidence. The only thing that's new about climate change as a scientific theory is…
You should pay them $100/hr for the interview if you're having them work. There are some companies that have people come in for half a day or a day as part of their interview (not onboarding) and they cut them a check…
I know this will be a huge surprise to you but there might be people here who do more than glue stuff together with ruby for a living.
he was right there too
"Some arguments for inclusion take this form: if content protection of some kind has to be used for videos, it is better for it to be discussed in the open at W3C, better for everyone to use an interoperable open…
Well no in this scenario the person has been promoted two steps past his level of incompetence.
Why bother? It's not as if they'll turn around and pay you extra for doing part of their job for them. There's a ton of tech work right now, it's far easier to find a place that suits you than to try to transform a…
On the other hand companies that think this way trip themselves up by letting people fail upward: "they can't do the job as an individual we'll let them manage everyone else into the ground."
It looks like he hasn't responded to anyone else re: DRM, why would he talk to me? The point is he's only communicating about this through proxies and needs to explain himself.
"Coding is free" except for the $2000 laptop, the thousands of people working for pennies to make it, the military required to project enough power to keep them working, the endless supply of Starbucks to power through…
None of it comes from 4chan. I dialed into bbs that were that awful in the 80s. A generation of computer dudes who grew up listening to Howard Stern dominated the internet in the 90s. It's baked right into the culture,…
