That is a great point and I agree. Its easy for the JRE "Its just a hang for a couple hours" to make it seem like he is just talking on the fly. Some times the curtain gets pulled back and people pull out and mention their notes o

While I'm sure that buried in the TOS you can be banned at any time for any reason, and the sheer volume of apps they referee makes things difficult to have humans manage. The "right" thing to do here would be to at least pro

John is like many of the people Ive met that have no problem conveying a lot of dense information quickly and easily and avoiding speech patterns that are overly technical and difficult to understand. Some of the most intelligent people I k

I love everything about my hexacore 32gb MacBook Pro... except the keyboard. In fact I rarely use my MacBook now because the keyboard is so infuriatingly bad. I have a 2014 model that I let my kids use and it’s vastly better to type on.

Sounds like a lot of the same goals of Windows Longhorn. Ironically, .NET Core has made alot of the goals they were trying to achieve more achievable now. Trying to build an OS in .NET in 2005 it was too slow, database filesystem has sort o

I listen, his podcast is a great way to fill my commute. Here is what I think he does well: -Give people room to "breathe" and get a sense for who a person is in every day life -Expose a broader point of view/marketplace of i

Well put. My knee jerk reaction is to frame Markopolos as the villain here but he does stand to lose much more if he is wrong. That said it is a dangerous game to be playing that can/will have ripple effects on all the folks working at

My boss claims he is responsible for this blackout due to an errant tibco message. I can never tell if he is kidding or not, but he has a lot of experience in the power industry so I have no reason to doubt this.

We have 7 people in the house and I can breakdown the usage like this: Mac sync between 5 machines (this was surprising to me) Instagram/social(I thought YouTube would be 2nd place) YouTube Netflix

This is still the case in the Houston Tx area. I am paying 50 extra bucks to have "unlimited" internets because kids. We averaged 7 days before our 1TB was used each month.

It took me a second to parse what you were saying. Essentially since it’s 2.2LBS per kg the first divide gets you the number on both sides of the decimal. Very cool

I purchased a few iFixit iphone batteries and was less than impressed with their performance. I think what iFixit is doing is awesome, and I am a huge fan of them. I used their iMac kit to put an SSD in my family iMac and it made the job si

The concept of hitchhiking is such an anachronism now that I had to suspend disbelief as I watched “once upon a time I Hollywood” that I spent most of the time reconciling being the hitchhiker and the driver and why either side would feel l

I consider it nonsense because it becomes dogma at each organization. The problem with that is that they each have their own way of being “agile” and questioning the status quo is futile at best to politically charged at worst. Secondly, we

I probably felt this way 10 years ago when I was in my early 30s and this article was written. Now that the time has caught up with me and Im in my 40s and still slinging code? Im doing technical consulting now and have had the best 3 fisca

I have thought long and hard about upgrading my iPhone 8 to one of the new X models, but I don't like the lack of a home button. I guess I am officially old now, but I dont want to look at my phone to unlock it. I like that I can reach

I don’t always agree with the way he’s conducted himself and I don’t understand why people overshare on Twitter when the upside is minuscule and downside is huge. But Elon does seem to be pushing make the world a better place. I’ve a feelin

I have a maltipoo(wifes choice) that was especially difficult to train, and hard headed. I thought it was because he was not especially bright, but turns out to be the opposite. I tell him get me a ball, he runs off and returns with a ball.

Its all a slippery slope. If you had shown this outcome to the execs prior to starting down the path they took, none of them would have chosen said path. Execs think they are being "good managers" when they push for more from less

Hey. That looks like what happens with crude/natural gas/agriculture/any commodity. While it is worth being reported, this is Econ 101 supply and demand. Price volatility is part of the market.

yes. But if I didn't feel comfortable, or felt like I was not being adequately compensated, I would change my job. I didnt get into my line of work because it was glamorous and rewarding, I got into it because the pay was good.

You may be correct, and they do seem to be making real strides. I hope its not because they have been lucky until now. (which statistically speaking is unlikely)

In the scenario you describe, I would agree. However, that isn't really a tip. If a service worker provides great service, the option to compensate them for their services should be allowed.(and the inverse for terrible service). A tip

Just curious to me how so many "experts" called this a solved problem in the early 2010s, and only just now are realizing the n² * n² * n² edge cases that seem difficult to handle.

Good advice for many reasons, but unless you let your company root your device, they cant track you and your behavior.

Sounds like Antifa, or the right wing equivalent. Before the swarm of downvotes, everyone think about what happens when we decide to use violence to impose their point of view. The government should be our client, not our ruler. We should b

question- if you are a pilot, and you fly 737s do you think that you are now unaware of the differences? Do you think that given that awareness you may be apt to want to learn about those differences, even if not for curiosities sake, but s
