Yeah, Silicon Valley is pretty much a "Cult of Money" now. Maybe I'm way off base here but it doesn't seem like the mentality of creating products and services which genuinely help people while at the same time providing

Does that include false testimony? If so, why couldn't Manning employ the Regan/Poindexter tactic... I don't recall? Or can the immunity be rescinded if the testimony doesn't produce the answers the prosecution wants?

Do they not teach why Newton invented calculus anymore? They did when I was taught physics and it all made sense. I don't recall if I considered it beautiful at that time but I do recall how impressed I was with Newton's feat; mov

The blog post was good but it was just another variation highlighting the age old conundrum... fast, good and cheap, pick two. Those that value quality are going to be swimming up stream in most organization that develop software because th

The big problem with "glue work" is it's often as important as the "real work" but it doesn't fit neatly on the Jira board. The other problem with "glue work" is it's often viewed as, well, glue

Good arguments can be made that both charities and businesses should be tax exempt. As a sovereign nation, NK should be allowed nuclear weapons if China has them. And the US shouldn't have a standing army, at least if we're being

One of the biggest issues is the industry as a whole operates on a completely different hubris level. I don't think any of my professional references has ever been contacted with the purposes of gaining significant insight into my prio

But IBM Mainframe programmers aren't as rare as one might think. And that platform is one a young person can grow with their whole career instead be whip sawed by the latest Javascript framework every year.

> complain when I dropped whatsapp and say that they wouldn't be able to get hold of me This blows my mind. I mean having Whatsapp implies one has a phone which implies one can receive SMS messages or God forbid, a phone call.

Choosing not to use Facebook is in no way analogous to choosing not to use gasoline or electricity.

I like Pharo but Morphic seems to be much more front and center in Squeak. And becuase I'm focusing on are new UI paradigms the Morphic interaction is really what I'm concerned with.

I've had some user interface ideas I've wanted to explore floating around in my head for more than a decade. I' m now in a position to start exploring these ideas and after an extensive survey I decided to use Squeak. The dee

It must be nice for Kent to just trot off and investigate whether or not his work "matters". For the rest of us, this is a non starter because that effort can't be captured in a story or a task attached to a story on the Jira

Yeah there are no hard and fast rules but a lot of time transformations can be in the object as well. If I need a function to transform Foo to Bar I could just as easily send a toBar() message to an instance of Foo.

Objects are meant to have a life cycle in which the state should only be changed by the object itself. Setters violate this idea by allowing the sender of the message direct control over the state of the object. A simplistic example: accoun

Yeah, with all this micorservices, serverless, lambda hype I can't help but feel this all was addressed, at least in the Java world, with EJB.

That organizational pattern used to be addressed by proper design, engineering and project management. IMO, allowing the hell that is Agile dictate architecture design is the tail wagging the dog.

Yeah. Last summer I went to the Empire State Building in New York city and two things struck me. First was the quality of the work and second was the recognition paid to those responsible for that quality. On the observation floor they have

Meh, the feedback you speak of is often subjective. The beauty of STEM is that you can objectively take stock of where you stand.

I had a history course like that as well. For papers, I would literally grab a beer and ramble on in the most sarcastic fashion I could muster. I received an A, it was a complete sham.

Having grown up in similar circumstances I've turned out to be a big saver. Not in hopes of a lavish retirement but to not think twice when one of our cars needs new tires or one of my kids needs braces. To me those types of things wou

Yes this is a great point. Antitrust enforcement is one of the few legitimate roles of the Federal Government in my opinion. That's why I wish a coalition could be built around personal freedom and the reduction of welfare, starting wi
