I think a lot of the "religious" feeling I get from FP advocates is the constant focus on purity and the "No, you AREN'T DOING IT RIGHT!!!" kinds of tantrums. You HAVE to understand the nuance. You HAVE to participate…
It's much more complicated at scale. Many conflicts can come from things like backporting or working on a feature in a codebase that deals with a lot of churn (like some drivers or the Linux kernel). Some open source…
Everyone at the top of our class in undergrad were the people who got internships early. I went from being the confused guy who still had decent grades to being one of the people who could go above and beyond. Debugging…
I have my masters in computer science and work on the Linux kernel at a company you know for a product that you know. I often miss the point of leetcode questions and lose points because I don't use some certain tricky…
Same. As an American, I would be much less likely to use or spread good word about a product that centered around the act of "tooting". Our culture sees the word as silly, childish, and a bit gross. I could get used to…

I was with you until that last line. Maybe it's because I never saw IBM in its prime or because I only happen to hear about IBM when there's a ton of media spin on a product that never shows up as anything more than a…
Aaaaand the EULA and menu buttons are in Italian when I download from the en-us version of the site. I knew there would be 90 languages, but I didn't know I'd need to learn all of them to use Edge!
I'm not quite sure how these are right-leaning political statements. She criticizes: * Nazis chugging milk and Hindu nationalism * Gene editing babies, especially in ways that they can be passed along. * AI/ML as a…
Same here
I thought the same thing. Now I'm stuck with a $1500 Asus laptop that barely plays Netflix a year and a half later. despite an 7th gen i7 and 16gb of DDR4. Now I'm saving up for a Macbook Pro again, despite my hatred…
