Except that the state doesn't take any sort of a long term view, unless you consider the next election a "long term". The state can't do anything to benefit the economy- by definition all the money spent by the state wa

Just because the government-- which has spent $8T over the past several years -- spends some money on "technology", mostly aimed at better killing people overseas, does not mean that the government is the reason that we have iPads

Not in my experience. I once helped build a team of Elixir developers. There were few people who knew elixir at the time. That simple filter ended up getting us a really great team-- much better than interviewing a bunch of applicants fr

Yes, I've gotten requests for follow up questions, links to other bugs that mine was a duplicate of, and indications of when a particular bug would be fixed. In one case I was "doing it wrong" and I got a pointer on how to do

This comment reinforces my perception that erlang is less popular than it should be because engineers are not as strong as they should be. The advantages of erlang, over basically every other language, make the "cost" of learning

Personally, I use Couchbase for this kind of stuff. Make a Membase (memcached) bucket and all the data is in RAM. Its easy to persist of course, by putting data in a Couchbase bucket as well.

Tomcat could have a bug change under you as well. I don't see how its different. Maybe more stable? Boring? Sure there is that, but nothing fundamental about Dokku is different-- its just newer.

Don't be silly- Apple gives Xcode away for free, it is not bloated nor complex, nor particularly proprietary (who do you think made LLVM?) and you don't need to seek anyone's approval to upload your software to github or to

I grew up before the generation of kids who booted into basic-- I started programming with a soldering iron. I designed my first computer. Then I designed a video card for it. Then I had to write a BIOS for it. Here's the reality thou

More than that I've noticed about 30 years of consistent and regular fluff pieces to glamorize people such as Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos. One of the notable exceptions is Steve Jobs who stopped giving interviews to these kinds of repor

This article seems to miss the point. Not that Unikernels seem useful for running in VMs, not on bare metal. Thus you get the isolation of a true VM with a container like performance & resource usage.

Love the idea! Alas it appears that there have been no go, elixir or "golang" projects posted, or in your index. (or maybe search isn't working.)

Debt collection agencies have not legal right/power to collect debts under the FDCPA. All someone has to do (if they are savvy enough to know this) is send you a cease and desist. Virtually every debt collection agency out there know

I'm interested in something like this, but for a different application. I want to mix up stuff like beard oil or vape juice. Interested in delivering between 0.1ml and 10ml of solution (Eg: 0.1ml of 100mg/ml nicotine, 10ml or veg

Seems like this is an opportunity for a tor like network over a webRTC peer to peer network, maybe? (Dunno maybe that's a bad idea for some reason...)

One of the challenges is that the entire industry is following what people want-- so for instance, Apple rather than being mildly sweet and small and a little ugly are now huge, bright red, and super sweet. They've been bred to have m

Low carb for 8 months, so I think I'm beyond the short term measure. My bloodwork is better now than before. I can't imagine what nutrition I'm being deficient in, and the things that are potential issues I already take supp

The only proof I have is an anecdote but it is consistent with my research-- and I've lost 100 pounds in 8 months as a result. The biggest problem is we have rejected science from food to begin with. We have government spending billio

I love the idea of developers working on code, and not infrastructure, and so I love open source projects that solve this problem (by automating infrastructure). But I will never support anything that locks me into a particular vendor. Ther

If they are wise, that is literally what they will do. It won't undo the fork, though, the fork is really in the blockchain (as he's using the term fork) rather than in the source code. For some period of time there will be two v

I switched back to sublime when I found that atom was corrupting my files, by inserting different characters than the ones I was typing. I've seen this issue pop up several times, and when it does I stop using atom for several months.

I really would like to embedded atom as an online code editor... it seems like a no brainer given that its written in Javascript. But it seems there's no project to do this (hope I'm wrong!) FWIW, I could never find any indicatio

Without probably cause, demanding ID is not just a right the police have (in the sense of fundamental human rights, I'm not talking about case law here.) Demanding ID without probable cause (or more strictly, a warrant) is a violation

Also, where are the police not too violent? No, seriously. Someone should make a map that graphs these incidents... like a crime heatmap.

The purpose is to create evidence to support their affirmative defense that the victim was resisting arrest. Pretty much the definition of pre-meditation and also the very definition of corruption.

Good developers aren't trained, they are self taught. This can be on the job. I would be happy to pay people who aren't quite yet developers $30k as the article suggests, and then mentor them. I spent much of the past year helpi

IT's not unfavorable to introduce a feature at the OS level and then release it to developers when its stable and ready for prime time. The brightness control that apps have now is a result of exactly this kind of process. Only thing &
