As a recent South Bay emigrant, I'm sympathetic to your point of view, but the current listings make it hard for me to completely buy it. Rents for low end 1 bedroom apartments in Mountain View seem to be down about 20% from a year ago

Is that a bad thing? If you're going to restrict residential construction, surely restricting office construction to match is a good thing?

My definition of a "useful" email signature varies highly from anyone who thinks that a list of upcoming events belongs in them. What a waste of bytes.

I spend weeks looking for tools that I could even us, much less like, and eventually gave up and wrote everything by hand. I would be very interested in hearing about any OpenAPI tools that you would recommend.

There are a couple of issues at play. One is that there's so much interesting stuff going on that I (and most of my colleagues) tend to volunteer ourselves for lots of projects, which results in us going "deep" on a couple of

Because that's a thing that you do regularly? I would like for all of my accounts to at least start massively rate limiting me after 2 or 3 failed attempts. I honestly can't remember the last time I mistyped a password 3 times in

US tariffs tend not to be on consumer goods though, right? Also, I'm curious how much that number has changed over the last 4 years. Were we also at the top in 2016?

If anyone comes across as rude in that exchange it's Richard. Maybe it's just his style (I don't have any experience to judge by except this comment), but he comes off as very abrupt here.

Yes, from experience. It's not that we don't know what's important, it's that it's all important and I have to find time to actually write code every now and then too. The real problem is just that we're all ve

Depending on the area, you can't even get internet outside of full cities. I own a house that's a few miles outside of a small town in Oregon. When I moved up here from the bay area recently, I had to rent a second house in the ne

Mission elapsed time just complicates things. Now that we have enough memory that we don't need to worry so much about overflow, we just use the Unix epoch even onboard spacecraft.

Comfort won't be much of a factor since most NASA centers are completely work from home for non-mission-critical work for the indefinite future. Nonetheless, we do have a ton of these kinds of things going on all the time. The bigger p

Do you mean it doesn't use explicit mutexes? I don't see any way this model would avoid using mutexes (or some mutex-like construct) under the hood, in which case I'm not sure I see the advantage. The term "fork/joi

On the other hand, the fact that I can often times pull up a comp-sci related wikipedia article and learn enough to implement that algorithm I need is really useful. I think in an ideal world, regular and simple Wikipedia would be more inte

I did read that section, but it's not immediately clear to me that those two things are causally related. Yes, Luxxotica cut Oakley out of their stores and Oakley stock lost a lot of value. But, Luxxotica bought Oakley 6 years later. W

How did they acquire Oakley? I don't remember any major controversy at the time, and reading a few news articles and Wikipedia, it just reads like any other corporate merger.

You can still get that kind of furniture if you want it. It just costs a couple of orders of magnitude more than even "expensive" Ikea furniture. It seems very plausible to me that there was plenty of crappy (probably homemade) fu

Are you saying that's a bad thing? The code exists for mostly good reasons. I'm more inclined to do things myself, but if I have to hire someone, I damn well want them to be "not willing to do anything even slightly outside o
