Agree with you and parent poster. I remember 15 years ago or more going through CMMI certification and there was a push to get to level 3. Our company hired a consultant who came in every eight weeks or so to track our progress, give direct

The lack of a really good open source IDE or IDE plugin is a real road block for a number of people. Pointing folks to Emacs or an Emacs derivative is is not the solution. I know there is a couple of IDE plugins for Clojure and I think it w

Also, natural language can be quite discoverable if designed properly. Jef Raskin and his son Aza did quite a bit of work in this area. Things like Alfred on the Mac, and a bunch of different IDEs nibble around the edges of this concept wit

"I love Python cooked functionally, but my colleagues do only OO" is equivalent to "I love functional Java but my colleagues do only OO Java". Fixed that for you. The whole point of the comment was that Clojure, by and l

Any business problems that can be shown, objectively, to be better solved by one paradigm versus another can also be isolated into its own code base/module where said paradigm is canonical and ubiquitous. The problem is, this rarely ha

Exactly, if you really want to work on the engineering bits you'll get hired by one of Lockheed's sub contractors.

From what I can tell the only way to obtain bitcoin without providing personal information is to find someone on Craigslist willing to transfer you some coin... for a 15% markup. EDIT: That's the bigger failure

Nice try but no. The question of whether or not an individual should be allowed to serve as a US representative in congress if they are also a citizen of a foreign country is perfectly valid. Also, I never referred to any particular country

Yeah when web apps started to take off, circa 2000 I'd say, the big selling point was the ease of deployment and update and the ability to have a single code base for multiple OS's. Also, up to that point application installation

Here's my rebuttal... Don't do almost everything the article says to do and put your site behind a pay wall if you absolutely must monetize.

I've had this idea of starting a SaaS of sorts which delivers a bunch of functionality supplied by apps and web pages over SMS. Back in the early 2000's using my Blackberry 7290 I was able to access all kinds of information by tex

Using your example, renting the sofa only makes sense if you expect to only need a sofa for about 40 months. I say about because if you're super diligent, and most aren't, and put the extra 1500 in some investment you're stil

There are certainly places where underground power lines are feasible in the US but not in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. If you saw where the lines in question span you'd be in awe of the terrain.

Exactly! If you circle back around to his original objection the same argument can be made... "You use strcpy every day but you don't know exactly how it's implemented?". That's the whole damn point of abstraction l

Excellent advise... Now to address the important question; as far as I can tell, in North Carolina BBQ is a noun meaning vinegar based pulled pork, hush puppies and sweet tea. In Texas, and elsewhere BBQ is a verb.

I agree with the sentiment but I think you are being too gracious with your analogy. The long and the short is a group of developers was relying on another group of developers to provide software with security concerns for free without vett

This sums it up well. If all your achievements, with the exception things like professional growth, was not directly derived from these high level OKRs then middle management has failed in the assignment of work. The hilarious thing where I

I think one of the biggest issues is that languages such as Java account for large percentages of existing OOP in the wild and Java is a "kitchen sink" language with too many supported paradigms and styles. For example, look at cl

I wouldn't say current Smalltalk implementations mesh perfectly with Kay's vision. It's focus on class hierarchies and inheritance breaks with what Kay's initial vision was. That said, it's possible to write Smallta
