   There's nothing wrong with the markets being down. It means the dollar is up? It's perhaps a good time to buy. The problem is with your bets being wrong.

   It's true. But then also it isn't. Sprints (or Scrum) are useful when trying to force an Agile process within an organization that isn't Agile. If you're working in a true Agile company there's no need for sprints (

   But this is of course less about trying to create a competitive laptop and more about China attempting to become technologically independent. Having the ability to mass produce something entirely within their own soil. Pardon the politics.

   Since you consider yourself a "resource" I'm assuming you do hands-on development work on some sort of product. If so: introduce and start enforcing Scrum. If agile is not in the DNA of your company Scrum offers a way to forc

   Then also the Uzgorod pipe is still providing gas to Europe. It runs through Ukraine. Must be nice for Ukraine to be able to station troops and equipment near Russia's financial arteries.

   So Docker gives you Dockerfiles that show exactly what's installed. It then leverages kernel namespaces introducing that extra level of security. Or so at least that's always been how I see it.

    I hope you're not talking about that propaganda piece from Oliver Stone? One time I spoke with a dog. It told me humans are pretty low level for not understanding the importance chasing balls.

    It's true. But often that scope isn't properly defined. So you get a fixed timebox, a fixed "scope" (product has to be finnished) and a scope that's unclear. So first make sure the scope is properly defined. There&#

    What works for me is not having my listening (and recollection) capacity being interrupted by taking notes.

    I thought how individualism is just something that was marketed uppon us was pretty powerful. Also how medical science became more about grouping symptoms than understanding where those things originated from.

    10-year-old PC makes it sound dramatic. Yet single core speed hasn't increased that dramatically over the last 10 years.

    I think the goal should be to be able to fly as much and more.

    I one time did a project entirely in notepad. Not notepad++. But the standard notepad that comes with Windows. It was a time when I got tired of frameworks and IDE's that come and go and try to offer things more conveniently. Again hav

    Considering the sun produces 1370 Watts per square meter (solar constant). I cannot imagine an average homeowner in Brooklyn having enough rooftop space to accomodate the number of panels required to power their home for 100%. Especially wh

    I was copying a file today and thought: "Why is it duplicating the data? Why does it not just create a new second filename pointer in the filesystem?"

    I disagree with the idea that we shouldn't build capturing innovations on top of chimney CO2 emissions just because we need to eliminate those chimney emissions. Yes, we should reduce chimney emissions. But it appears that isn't g

    Would be happy to read your refutes of his current article since I'm also not seeing how all these (unproven) solutions are going to successfully reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. Wonderful ideas. But I would like to see the code.

    I guess I see the world's problems as just another engineering challenge. Just put in the work to create value. Make things better piece by piece. > And I believe we can all agree, regardless of political affiliation, that the fabri

    I've always put years but have also openly admitted having gaps. I simply told I wanted some free time. Or were messing around with some pet-project (which I do put on my CV). Or learning some new language (which I don't put on my
