Natural is adapting to change, understanding that the environmental context is always changing. Architecture is usually built to last forever, but it always has to be torn down, at great expense. Or, the expense is too great, and it remai

I was just telling my wife the other day about how much I'd hoped that text went away in favor of better communication mediums. I feel shy to admit it, especially here, but I dislike text. I dislike it because it's unnatural. I

I've been a loyal subscriber for years, also. But, I'd say that for every one or two great issues, there's one that I just can't get through. It must be whomever is editing that month.

So, given this, shouldn't it be possible to compare Europe to the US between 1920 and 1978 and see the affects of lead?

A few thoughts about the current de facto authentication 'standard': 1. The majority of my accounts are tied to my email account. Now, I can't easily change email providers; I'm locked in, for the most part. 2. Email is

From his birth, I tried very hard to let my son criticize and challenge me and also other adults. I tried to teach him to negotiate for what he wants and that things should be quid pro quo. This has greatly frustrated many adults (and me

I wouldn't say it's the hardest, but it's definitely the first hard step. I learned to ollie in the summer of 1987. It had taken me and my brother about 6 months to figure it out. The hardest part was training our brains to

I disagree. 99 is a very reasonable price. I pay much more for IDEs, tools, libraries, services, support, and infrastructure. 99 is a reasonable one-time cost, all things considered (assuming it works on all modern browsers and mobile).

It's pretty easy to see the effects of this if we compare the number of successful people from rich countries to the number of successful people from the other several billion people in the world. Where one is born and in which family

In larger corps, at least, they will have salary ranges for each staffing level. It's common for these ranges to be very wide. For example, I've commonly seen the upper end of a lower staffing level be the same or higher than th

While it's good to understand the market prices for your skills, negotiation is a lot about understanding the other party's goals and needs and best-guessing their maximum price. They will have a maximum price in their head. So,

Makes sense. If I remember my economics correctly, with efficient markets and competition, profits should approach zero over time. But, if there's no competition....

It's not that I don't believe that intelligence is heritable. I do. It's more that I don't believe that it's all that important to be intelligent in order to be a good Human. People have a natural attraction to th

Unfortunately for us, it seems that the more 'evolved' we get, the smaller our brains get: http://www.npr.org/2011/01/02/132591244/our-brains-are-shrin...

I think that your criticism of the classifications is misguided. Certainly, depression and anxiety are different disorders, caused by different chemical mechanisms. And, bipolar is certainly different. And, I'm extremely glad that m

That's an interesting story. I know a guy who's a senior developer - probably makes $190k a year. He just codes copy-paste. I think he makes a lot because he puts out products really fast, and clients are really impressed. But

While I have seem similar behavior in my son, but I believe that it was more caused by his prefrontal cortex [1] taking many years to fully develop. As an aside, I have found that meditating with my son as a young child was beneficial to hi

I have had a positive view of UoW after competing with them in the ACM competitions during the 90s. Their teams were pretty impressive. But as you imply, that may not have been representative of the whole school population. Also, their t

This is very impressive. I hadn't realized that image classification was so good. I'm not sure I understand the results though. On the demonstration site, there's a group of images that apparently failed to be classified.

Instead of technical interviews, I would love to just pay a potentially great candidate to come in and work for the day. Not only would it give them an opportunity to demonstrate what they know and show off their other skills, it would g

I run into this all the time as I bootstrap my company. I have a deep temptation to try to do everything myself. And, a lot of times, I will do so. But, I have to keep reminding myself that there's way more value in outsourcing th

I don't see it quite so cynically. Alcohol is legal because there would be outrage or civil unrest if it was banned. Most people that I've met (who may not be considered alcoholics) certainly have some level of alcohol dependency

I don't know. If you have a CS degree, you will at least have passing familiarity with these things. Seeing them in practice or discussing them will at least stimulate some old memory synapses. Whereas, in contrast, someone without

I've met many self-taught programmers, and they were great to work with. Some were extremely productive and knew the inside and outside of certain languages and libraries. However, they still wrote code that nested 5 loops, or put da
