An unfortunate thing? That a project's own creator ensures the quality of its future? What I've realized as I grown older is that the majority of people are not worth my time. Loads of people will actively waste your time and talk

Your claims are baseless. If there are any semantic differences between clojure and clojurescript they are so minute that I'm not aware of them. I'm a full stack developer and use both daily. There are no performance issues inhere

There is no reason to use blockchain to implement every single piece of software. Blockchain's primary utility is as a cryptocurrency. There's a lot of profit being made off people's ignorance and everyone I see pushing this

Yes. Sprinkle a bit of blockchain pixie dust on your servers and now all of the sudden you can secure your data and go paperless. It wasn't possible before this. Software was useless before blockchain. Blockchain invented computers.

I have an Autonomous AI desk, got it shipped to UAE paying nearly double the price due to shipping and waiting about 3 months. I consider it money well spent. I find that in long stretches of work I really need to switch between standing an

Other than being a cryptocurrency, everything people are using blockchain based solutions for can be solved in a much more robust, complete, and scalable way using conventional software tools. This is why it's not the revolutionary thi

To add to this, I've been meeting with government entities in a country who IBM is heavily influencing with marketing. There are very low hanging fruit kind of technical problems that can be easily solved by mediocre CRUD app developer

I live in the desert where going outside in the summer is intolerable. What's helping me immensely while working from home is playing some VR games throughout the day. If I want something light I play a few rounds of archery in Holopoi

I've had the SP3 (4gb) then SP4 (8gb). I sometimes chuck it in my bag along with my Macbook Pro when I need to sketch out problems at cafes. I also use it when I'm coding frontend for the extra screen live reloading. There's

I'd recommend watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zi0rHwfiX1Q to see how powerful this can be. I've just discovered generative testing due to clojure.spec. Describing specs for your data works not only t

Not even very expensive or difficult to do. A small group of people could coordinate such a thing pretty easily. You can see a single opinion has taken over the internet where everyone is convinced any Note 7 in existence is a ticking time

After owning the Note 7 every other phone in comparison seems the same: just a screen to show apps on and make calls. The s-pen is what sets this thing apart from the rest, and as a developer has helped me sharing ideas and solving problems

Eleven years ago Kaiser Permanente hired me to help roll out new software to all their hospitals in Northern California. We had like 3 months of training before going in and one of the things they had us do was some personality type thing w

Who are your competitors? I'm not a nomad so maybe some other service would be better for me, even though it looks like you've got a lot of cool people registered.

Funny was thinking something similarly. As much as I enjoy working when I want to, deadlines and avoidance of failure is killing me. I would never give up programming but for the past week it's a struggle to bring myself to spend even

Respect and treatment of people is a real concern. I made a decision not to pick a certain library after seeing people being shut down in the issue tracker in the most unnecessarily abrasive way possible. Clojure does have a lot of amazing

I'm going Clojure route and in it for the long run. Being able to eval any single piece of your code in a REPL direct from your IDE in the context of your app is just insane. Also having one single language for JavaScript and JVM is su

Linode Singapore data centers. Lowest latency for any cloud provider where I live. Been rock solid so far. One time I used Cloudflare for two weeks and had massive service degradation at random times, so not doing that again.

I've been locked out of a droplet and had a friend lose one from a failure without warning. I've switched due to this and the attitude from customer service. Was working fine for few years before this happened.

AWS is insanely overpriced. It's weird to me that everyone jumping on AWS and some of their customers never come close to attracting the internet traffic required to set up CloudFormation. I think if you're starting a webapp out o
