Nothing really happened in the end. I'd only worked there for about six months but my boss liked me and thought I did good work. He chalked it up as a learning experience (which it certainly was). Our DBA was someone who'd been wi

Several years I was a junior dev at a 3PL (3rd Party Logistics) company troubleshooting an issue with some overnight data imports. I had it all loaded up on the test environment, then I'd delete the import, make some changes, and re-ru

My daughter is two and says her favorite colors are pink and purple. Girls aren't innately drawn to those colors but pick them disproportionately based on our society. I personally can't stand pinky princess shit. I ask for the bo

The article was about women getting married less, even when they had children. So it has everything to do with the discussion. Also, sure, both parents can make decisions for the well-being of the child, but if you're implying that the

My Dad was an alcoholic for as long as I can remember. A pretty serious one, but functional. But he held down a white-color job at a shipping company for which he was paid pretty well, and we lived a pretty comfortable lifestyle. He always

Linus in 2005: "But the _real_ security comes from the fact that git is distributed, which means that a developer should never actually use a public tree for his development." And then GitHub happened.

It's not either/or, it's both/and. Having parents that are willing and able to be involved with their children is huge, but going to a good school is to. The top rated comment linked to a This American Life story on achi
