(Written quickly on my phone) Issue ends up being how to keep applications from ruining assumptions made in other services. There’s no single code base which you can walk through and see possible changes. At that point this isn’t making thi

Why do developers often wish a manager/superior had technical knowledge? We hope they understand what we're doing and will make decisions with that in mind. We can also accept "hard decisions" as being more carefully con

Besides most conferences I see are in San Fran, San Jose, NYC, or Orlando. I've only seen large conferences in Las Vegas DefCon, CES, etc.

Hey, this is a discussion forum, so can we please not appeal to authority here just to say (in so many words) "I don't care what your opinion on this linked article is because he's an expert and you're not." What&#x

Knowing it was coming and knowing when are two different things. Better to buy when it's cheap(er) than to short and loose your shirt.

So in a sense "reserved instances" are more like time sharing then.

Most users did not want flash. Most users don't want web apps or apps inside web views, but they'll use those if they have to. Why switch phones to get flash if you really wanted a native experience in the first place?

The author makes the point that these are philosophers, but our current pure, strict definition of that makes them just writers and filmmakers. Like you said, more people have seen one of their films, or read one of their books, than read a

I mean you could, but it’d need to be through some kind of migration system to update it.

Donated $100. Supposedly a donor will match your donations 3 to 1 so in a way I donated another $300 to them. We can't know who we are unless we know where we came from. That goes for politicians, companies, and organizations as well.

I think the statement “it doesn’t solve anything” is hyperbole that makes the nuanced argument you’re making (that I don’t disagree with) hard to have. How is a block chain useful at all if it’s current main application “doesn’t solve anyth

In the grand scheme of things sure, but definitely a large influx as compared to the size of the market in Coinbase. We're talking probably low 2-digit millions to make big moves I think.

Had to be a lot. Should have screen recorded it, but instead recorded with my phone. The order book entries and chart were going nuts. Entire sections of the book disappearing at once. The chart would go almost entirely flat several times.

Adding some kind of optional into Go would make things much easier. It's a cleaner version of the same thing.

I love Go, but there needs to be some work around dealing with the problems the community is solving via code generation. I feel like a lot of the things I find tedious about Go should be much easier to generate somehow so I can get on with

I've found that a lot of "this is the best X ever" is often just hype, but when I watched Casablanca for the first time I was super happy to find out that wasn't the case for this movie. All these years later it's s

Not the point: college is for CS. Not for "building on the work of others." You learn the basics that everyone needs to do the advanced work. If that isn't needed/useful then you need a vocational school instead of a CS

There are a lot of universities which taught the core CS worse, and also didn't teach any of the stuff taught in bootcamps, by Professors who were more focused on research than fixing the problem.

This article assumes that depositor money is used for purposes other than backing the amounts of USD a depositor has in their account. I believe he also thinks that it's possible the money is being used in a fractional-reserve fashion
