If he has the money to do something that won't hurt anyone, then it is justified IMO. I'm not rich, and I can't fathom what it's like to be a billionaire, but I can tell you what I don't like: people sticking their

Yep I have been in the market, but there aren’t that many Google level opportunities out there.

I started at a new company in June and they were willing to have their lawyers change the boilerplate contract to state that anything I do that’s unrelated to our industry, done on my own time/resources is mine. It really depends on t

Can we stop pretending that the right didn't do this to themselves? It's fine for politicians and elected officials to have their own opinions, it's not OK for them to misrepresent them as outright facts. That's literall

How far are we from Golang 2.0 RCs? Are they trying to exceed Scala 3's development cycle? As much as I'd like to use a pragmatic language like golang, I can't live without generics (many folks feel the same way.) Feels like

How did you guys decide on your pricing plans? It seems to me you're missing out on the folks who's spending doesn't vary much per month but want to get their costs optimized. I have a friend who's company is spending ~

The reason you don't see many projects written in C# is that there are far fewer open source C# projects than Java/Go/etc. Most C# is written in-house (enterprises, some startups (admittedly relatively few.)) I've been

Agreed. The layperson for the most person does not know how to search effectively. Even among my developer friends today who are competent, if they can't find something, they come to me. I have a knack for finding things that are dif

As much as I'd like to agree (I am pro-national healthcare for the US) - if you don't have $20,000 (let's say that covers your annual premiums & deductible) - you sure as heck don't have the funds to quit your job an

My first programming job was remote (the company had a tiny office at the time) - this was almost 20 years ago to this day. Distractions weren't a problem for me, the main issue was fear of asking questions (i.e. spinning my wheels bec

I bought this book a couple of months ago - I think it’s well put together and practical as someone familiar with backend development (.NET) looking to learn how to do it in Rust. Yes there’s free resources to learn anything, but most onlin

If I could live to 150 and have a reasonably good quality of life (i.e. I still have my mental faculties, move around, see & hear well enough) - that would be ideal. But not if I can't see, hear, think or move around without assis

In the best of circumstances working for a startup is akin to playing the lottery. I worked at a startup almost a decade ago and I took (nearly) no equity in exchange for a much higher salary. The startup failed not long after I left. If y

It isn't fair to characterize everyone this way. I've owned my fair share of small cars (by US standards) but I bought a used F150 (my first truck) a few years ago and I love it. I don't care about how loud the engine is, no

I learned Pico in college (part of our email system IIRC.) I don't code in terminal windows (prefer IDEs) and I can get by in vim. Inevitably I reach for nano when I'm editing config files.
