Enjoy your big government people. The best part is, your hard-earned tax dollars go towards these transit hubs that you now can no longer use if you don't review to give up your Constitutional rights.

"App Stores have basically zero friction already..." I disagree with this point. The Apple App Store has a large entry barrier, in both cost and requirements, in that one needs to already have bought in to the Apple ecosystem in o

Where are the troves of Googler's who were against helping the US military? They're totally cool with helping China censor information?

Seems like nothing more than mud-slinging from disgruntled, fired employees. If SolarCity would have had "...tens of hundreds of millions of dollars in phantom revenue that would put them at over a billion in revenue, which I'll l

If you're into this sort of higher-level tech. analysis, my opinion is that Ben Thompson ( https://stratechery.com ) does a much better job.

My most recent personal laptop (after having been a MacBook user for a while) is a ThinkPad with ArchLinux. For a fraction of the price, I have a much more powerful laptop with a much better battery life. I no longer have to worry about thi

If you're measuring a bit and it's not 0, what is the only other value it can be?

I'm super excited about the "Basic slice patterns". I've been learning some Elixir at the same time and was blown away by the different style of programming you can write in using matching. Glad to be able to try it out

Only solution: take a pay cut as a CEO and offer a higher salary to prospective engineers. Don't want to do that? Don't complain.

For anyone not wanting to read the opinion behind the click-bait-titled article, here's the TLDR: the author never learned how to write OO code and is now declaring it dead. Every problem he brought up is easily solvable by writing goo

Reading this seems like a big undertaking, can someone here recommend specific essays for me to read, or are they all compelling enough for me to read them all?

Could you share some resources on arguments against the book's points? I just looked it up on Amazon and plan on reading it.

Starting their own label is exactly what they need to do to remain competitive. It's exactly what Netflix ended up doing and I think it's turning out pretty well for them. I wouldn't be surprised if Spotify tried poaching hig

Good thing no one is being forced to drive for Uber. If your main source of income is from being a ride-share driver, the problem isn't with Uber.

Not one character in the article is actually devoted to how `cd` works...it's just the story of how the author found out where to find the code for it. An article much more worthy of the title "How does `cd` work?" would mayb

I know right? I can't believe this article was approved with that analogy.

Let me get this straight, if you're not in California you're either in a racist, red state hell hole or a dead end pit of poverty and despair? Dropping out of high-school clearly did you wonders.

You really only agree with scientific papers that have "positive effects"? You do see the irony here, right?

I've got an idea, stop giving Congress free health care and stop giving Congress a $100k a year pension after they've resigned. Bam, there's your competitive salary to offer NSA engineers.

Really...? If someone sexually assaults you you aren't developed enough to realize a crime was committed and you need to go to the police? Also, this problem doesn't only just affect women.
