I find that a lot of similar analogies are flawed. On the landing page of one of the frameworks (I don't remember which one, unfortunately) there was a description comparing a programmer to a woodworker. It was written that this woodwo

I think that LunarML [1] could fit this niche quite well. It's a StandardML compiler that targets Lua. I can't tell much more as I've only played with it a little and don't have much experience with ML languages in gener

In smaller companies, one person might cover multiple roles. Also, it might be different when your employer is focused on B2B sales, though I don't have enough experience to be sure about that. Anyway, when I was working in sales, I wa

Fair point. And that's why I prefer to travel alone or just with my fiancee. It's just much easier to, well, wander as you please.

"A Scanner Darkly" entry [0] is my favorite so far. Somehow, it's wildly accurate. [0] - http://www.rinkworks.com/bookaminute/b/dick.scanner.shtml

For me, a great middle ground is building an engine similar to fantasy consoles (PICO-8, TIC-80, etc.) This type of project is small enough to plan all the elements before you start (which helps to stick to the design and therefore to avoid

When I was a kid, I had a toy gun that would start with kind of distorted phrases, then continued with shooting sounds. I think it took me a couple of years before I understand that the voice was yelling something akin to "Baldy! Get t

That's interesting. I was born and raised in Poland, a Catholic country, and we do gather after the funeral to mourn and eat together. However, apparently this custom dates back to Slavic times – this may explain the difference between

That sounds similarly to my condition, but I'm just in my early thirties. I was stuttering since I was a small kid. In high school, went to therapy and I was stutter-free for around 8 years, then I started to stutter again. Since then,

I quit smoking the old-fashioned way so I don't have a first-hand experience in that matter, but I was thinking a lot about this once. I belive patches and gums may not work in every instance. Please let me provide some context. I was

For a short time I worked as a machine operator in a production company, automotive industry. The CEO used to yell during meetings on the production floor that "the production must be high quality, fast, and cheap; there is no 'ch

I used Pony for a small hobby project around 2 years ago. It looked promising and I had a lot of fun using Pony. My biggest gripe was lack of high quality materials to actually learn the language, especially that some concepts were new to m

Personally I say "I don't know" when I don't know. I also try not to express my opinion in absolutes – I tend to tell that "I think that...", "I believe that", "as far as I know", etc. It is

I am sorry if I misunderstand something here – to be honest, English never was my forte, so I may miss some subtlety. I did not take your post as a form of hubris. What I meant when I wrote about perspective is that personal experiences sha

The pricing page is quite interesting and sheds some light on the business model. It sounds like all the computations will be performed server-side, and end user will be charged per API call. Still, it is hard to tell how exactly is it goi

LibreCAD is a fork [0] of QCAD Community Edition. It looks very similar, but it is actually a separate piece of software. The biggest difference I see between these two is UI and the pace of development. LibreCAD is still being worked on, b

For me, almost everything starts at my work. Not sure what's wrong with me, maybe I'm too engaged, maybe I feel too responsible for my job... But my actual well-being is almost 100% related to the work. I'm stressed almost al

I think I had them when I was kid, but not anymore. And just to be clear, I didn't mean that I fall asleep as soon I close my eyes. It's just that there is no "transition" between being conscious and sleeping. And then,
