Keep American jobs for Americans! ;) However, perhaps they just couldn't get the right killer at the right price? Or maybe they're scarcer than you think? We keep hearing immigrants are taking American jobs, but in…
my experience (as us-born/bred) is that this exists, but is more a personality trait than anything else. And some personality traits can co-exist among others with the same trait more easily, and that 'so excited'…
Found someone who was playing Beatles in the background, half a world away, overnight in Dubai... (I know it's not live but it was still dark). Nice to have the sounds/ambiance as well as the video...
"I'm just waiting for Maria to kill her children" is a valid tech sentence, but probably not something that should be uttered in a public setting. :)
Recently worked with someone who... gotta say, it was a bit strange after a while. We're all remote, but he had no picture of himself, ever. Now... granted - there may actually be some visual reason - some…
not even safari 12.1
given that the code wasn't actually forked in the first place, it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway. no?
I worked with a colleague who had... 'interesting' ideas about software development. He'd put together a 'web framework' before joining the company, but was redeveloping a new one. It was... bizarrely weird, and was…
And... the Beatles were relatively unique in that they had a moderately wide range of style, certainly compared to their most of their contemporaries. Yes, grandparents in the 60s probably would have put up with…
> However on mosy projects, you'll have the one guy who doesn't follow, or worse, the only one guy who follows the style. And so the prettifiers become absolutely necessary. I'll bite - why, exactly, is this "absolutely…
did most of the subjects in renaissance paintings actually exist, or were they just imagined people/faces?
Part of the reason you can get stuff done fast is precisely because you're not part of the company. The 'you should come work here full time' scenarios almost never seem to really get that point. The moment you come on…
Earned around $130k in consulting last year. After deductions/expenses, US federal taxes were around $8k. Now.. FICA was something else (which I can't remember offhand), and state tax was something like $3k.…
when I get my own clients directly, and I'm closer to that. When I'm subcontracted through someone else, it's typically < $100 ($70-$90). I consciously make that trade off sometimes because I'm effectively outsourcing…
I've had some discussions with folks on projects who are very... focused on linting and formatting rules. They've reformatted my code in the past, and have insisted on blocking code that doesn't pass all their listing…
