That's not to say it couldn't have. The Constitution and its new SCOTUS interpretation places such a heavy emphasis on the executive branch that even with safeguards and a 25th amendment, maybe protecting the electorate from itsel

When you get Spielberg to be on your board of directors, it really seems like it is legit.

But then collectively as a labor force, where do we go from here? We can't all dumb ourselves down - or won't, and it seems to me that people understand what it is we do less and less.

I will never forget the time I was given a coding "challenge" and sent home with the instruction to send it back whenever I felt it was complete. This sent my OCD into overdrive, of course. For the better part of two days straig

Isn't this also a facet of our "war" with the rest of the world to be at the forefront of technology? There are those that think ceding being the first in things like AI would be so detrimental to the US economy that we&#x27

Wouldn't accepting only those that had such advanced cancers though skew any results? I'm very much in favor of these individuals getting any and all help they can as soon as possible but I want to remain optimistic about the val

I think what you're saying is that an example is not generally proof that just anyone can. It goes a long way in disproving that its impossible, however. There could be a large amount of luck involved in everything and we just don&#x2

When my grandfather died a few years back, I went to the funeral and one night sat at a table with all the men of my family as we went around lamenting about how we'll miss him and what he wanted out of life. I am the first in my fami

True, but I thought the goal of Azure DevOps was to be a complete package solution. And so while all the pipelines and code and work items are stored there, it would be a pain to keep test cases in something else. And why no integration wi

As a subscription, it's more per month than Visual Studio Professional. As part of VS Test Professional it's almost twice as much for the first year. And you can't really do any test plans without it so its a huge part of D

It just strikes me as an odd thing to put on a luxury tier like that. Reiterates that quality and testing is often an afterthought rather than something everyone should include. If MS wanted the revenue they would put something the most sen

What I never really understood is why does Microsoft Test Manager only come with Visual Studio Enterprise? Do only enterprises test their software?

The same is true for anything remotely to do with credit or credit repair. There is a whole rat's nest of companies run out of the same PO Box in Minnesota that was shut down by the governor at least a few times now, but they basicall

I can understand a strong emphasis on quality for an air traffic control system and am glad that there was more weight put on getting out quality code than meeting a deadline (especially with some companies interpretations of DevOps/CI

Just out of curiosity, how many people applied vs. made it through the blind work-sample vs. the work day? I think this is a great system, but I'm not sure I could keep a team of engineers actively engaged in answering infrastructure

https://torrentfreak.com/images/msrep.pdf All US Patents are available online, there just isn't anything innovative or novel anywhere in the patent that I think justifies it as anything more than patent trolling.

I must be missing something here. I read the entire patent and it repeatedly mentions file metadata and a "content flag" that can be toggled and read to determine if there is restricted or prohibited content included in the file o

I am routinely amazed that people find Slack innovative. It's basically a pretty front-end to IRC. And your chat logs were always searchable.. open in a text editor and Ctrl-F. Even the integrations aren't novel, IRC bots have exi

"Your mathematicians were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should." Teaching someone the mechanics behind something and then certifying them as experts is dangerous. Have we learned

This is exactly how the market is supposed to work. You can't argue that Nike is leveraging its huge market share unfairly. If anything, they're doing just the opposite - they're giving up their entire market share to whoever

If you are interested, the Reddit admins discuss this at length and were planning to do this when /r/the_donald took over the entire front page. There are logs of their conversation that goes into the math.

Maybe someone just needs to explain this to me like I'm 5, but no one forces someone to take out $125,000 in loans to go to a private college. I graduated from community college and then went to a state four-year for my degree, and I c

I have to admit I was absolutely fascinated with the PizzaGate story, and more specifically the people on Reddit who were adding to it. The sheer amount of will and investigation that went into to connect random points of information was as
