‘Like cloud-scale, no-code scale or NoSQL scale’. That is the dumbest statement I have heard this week. You should perhaps refrain from commenting, at-least until you gain the modicum of intelligence that you currently…
True, but in some cases , it’s just a case of pedagogical mismatch . May I recommend https://www.scottaaronson.com/democritus/lec9.html ? I have cribbed from this endlessly when explaining quantum computing , and it’s…
Wouldn't the challenge be what does it mean that 'one tried their best' ? By using the word best there, it becomes yet another goal.
A lot of religious/theological texts and frameworks talk about the balance between self forgiveness and self efficacy, and the need for perspective. "It was said of Reb Simcha Bunem, a 18th century Hasidic rebbe, that…
Yegge called this the anti-loop - http://steve-yegge.blogspot.com/2008/03/get-that-job-at-goog... - back in 2008 hah. Still holds true.
'Fast Inverse Square Root algorithm, which is under the GPL' The algorithm isn't under GPL, the code is. John took the algorithm itself from code which was written earlier.
Wouldn't personality disorders be inseparable from physiological problems ? Is there any particular literature/reference you are basing this on, curious.
Neither was I, but honestly, that wasn’t a hard argument to follow .
Shouldn't everyone be judging (and improving) the quality of everyone's work in a team, if you want the project to succeed ? How is a manager to judge the quality of technical output other than peer feedback ?
Or they get tired/can't keep up with having to continuously learn and adapt, which cognitive dissonance defensively turns into disdain for 'something new'.
Software engineers should know and start from Computer Science, why not ? Mechanical and Electrical engineers have to learn Physics, Control dynamics and Differential equations the first couple of years.
I believe the parent probably meant service as in the 'service' in SOA.
It's interesting to see the HN responses in the GPA thread -https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17441601 when compared to this one, although both boil down to the measure of scholastic tests as a ingress criteria.
Comparing tax paid to market cap is disingenuous at best - I was surprised Bloomberg would print that, but they then go on to explain it in the article.
Who has trillions ?
Since you mentioned KMS, S3 has ACL mechanisms, along with separate mechanisms to encrypt at rest using KMS, or any client based key. On cloud based stores, you can't basically guarantee systems security against the…
I am not sure if thats necessarily true - a lot of folks are using cloud databases/datastores (Azure, S3 etc). Getting access to that is a different problem than remote code execution. Unless I am misunderstanding…
Partially because Amazon lost to the Publishers in 2014-15 - https://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/14/technology/amazon-hachett... ? All ebook prices jumped after that. I am not sure why no one is correlating the price…

Wouldn't the equivalent of burger flipping be Java development, perhaps in a standardized framework ?
Last I heard Google is still on Java 7 precisely because of this, although that might have changed. It's fun seeing the different theologies at Amazon and Google - I remember Yegge's famous platform rant, and he…
For finite judges of imperfect knowledge it must lead to the use of two different scales of 'morality'. To ourselves we must present the absolute ideal without compromise, for we do not know our own limits of natural…
"Neckbeard" crowd ?
How is that in anyway a reply to what s/he wrote ? Even snark should have a purpose.
When did it come out ? I suspect it wasn't adopted widely a year ago.
