And, sadly, completely incorrect.
There are a half-dozen different groups of mainstream programming languages (and a bunch of oddballs). Within those groups, it's relatively uniform. Going between -- not the same. Most people who make comments like this…
Two comments: 1. There is large variation in TN displays. I'm very happy with the Acer TN panels I have at home. I find good TN gives me less eye strain than a lot of the IPS panels. IPS is the way to go for photo…
That both does and doesn't help. There is the format, which looks sensible. There are the protocols around it, key generation, salt generation, overall design, etc. which are not. What actually scares me about the…
I like Bruce. I trust Bruce. However, as far as I can tell, this is a black box. There is no documentation on formats, protocols, and similar. I have no reason to trust the security of this system. The closest I could…
I'm at a startup where I found out a junior hire -- worse in every way than myself and several steps down in title -- is making at least 30% more than I am. It's a strange position. I've started polishing my resume as a…
Work as few or as many hours as you like. That's a pretty big benefit of contractors.
I found this one of the most useful books I've read, but less so for the physics (which was mostly an intellectual curiosity), and more so for understanding how to write good code. In it, Sussman shows you how to: *…
Correct. In contrast to Newtonian mechanics, Lagrangians and Hamiltonians completely describe essentially all fundamental laws of physics -- including things like quantum and relativity. However, they are cumbersome to…
Yes it does. I'm confused why you believe it doesn't....
Step 1: Add support to Firefox for encryption when connecting on port 80. Call this HTTP, but have the protocol identical to HTTPS with self-signed cert. You negotiate that when you connect to the web server. Step 2:…
Well, in this case: 1. The technical solution is trivial. You always have encryption, but http=self-signed cert, and no authentication, and no lock icon. https=CA cert, encryption, authentication, and lock icon. 2.…
Nope. The goal is to make running a server only available to corporate entities. It reduce competition from folks like yourself.
I don't know anyone who can sustain 80 hour work weeks if they're not passionate about what they're doing and enjoy it. People who try to do it just for the money do it for a while, and then either turn into cheaters…
It's false in the typical case. It's true in the atypical case, where the worker genuinely cares about the job. Earlier in my career, I had sustained 70+ hour work weeks at very high levels of productivity. In the…
Let me put this in real numbers. Most folks I know who work those hours make around $300k. That's mean. I know folks who make half that, and I know folks who make several times that.
I can see what the author is saying, but... It's not necessarily about everyone working 80 hour weeks. It's about a corporate culture of 80 hour weeks. Cheating, if you get the job done, and maintain the image, doesn't…
If this goes through, I'll be super-excited. I don't want my kids on ads. I don't want me on ads either.
There's welding and there's welding. Structural stick welding, I can train you on in a few hours. That's not going much higher than $16.50 per hour. Speciality welding -- of the level of precision needed to make…
Well, I'm not getting one for three reasons: 1. The laptop sometimes sits on my lap. The surface keyboard doesn't work as a laptop. 2. The resolution is a joke. 3. There is no sane pen storage. For a pen device, that's…
Empirically, I have not seen this to be the case. Test coverage has had little correlation to code quality on the projects I've worked on. I would agree that well-written tests of the most complex parts of code help…
> what are you talking about? Read about 3 more lines of the post, and you'll see. Your reading comprehension skills are lower than my toddler's. Fortunately, you're in good company, from the number of similar posts.
There is no way to not use Facebook. Let me repeat that: THERE IS NO WAY TO NOT USE FACEBOOK. Everyone's photos: Mine, yours, Stallmans, get posted to Facebook, annotated with our names (which is increasingly becoming…
