Why would we not want to move them elsewhere?

The only way this is going to move forward is through open standards. Something something webfinger, mail 2.0 and trusted recipients.

From the article: "Walmart sells an old version of human insulin for $25, but as Lipska explained, it doesn’t work for all patients and is incompatible with many new delivery devices."

It's pretty much become the rule of thumb with frameworks. They come and go. Favoring one concession over the other.

Thanks for this. I wasn't aware the marine ecosystem is so sensitive to changes.

No not at all. I'm saying the alarming message gets vague beyond "humanity has made a contribution to global warming". I try to research the available science but have trouble finding clear answers. The most accurate data see

Fair enough. So looking at the hundred millions of years of our evolution. What I've been able to gather is that apparently we've had CO2 levels far beyond 1000ppm (0.1%). It's actually been relatively low in "recent tim

I wouldn't reference it to debunk global warming. I believe humanity has made a contribution. But is it a problem? It's also scientific fact that ice ages happen. If the climate cycle has entered a cooling period. Wouldn't it

by bartimus 7y ago
Considering the next ice age is inevitable in normal circumstances. What terraforming options do we have to prevent an ice age? Maximizing the greenhouse effect by releasing more CO2 sounds like something worth exploring?

I'm happy you asked. So what is your idea with the wall?

by bartimus 7y ago
As opposed to "no" or "not now" you can also say "wait a moment" or "I'll help you later". No need to explain. Just make sure there's a way forward. She just needs to hold on a bit. Giving &

I suppose you could look at the number of views / comments / likes / dislikes ratios to determine a level of controversy. Youtube viewers are already grouped into various audiences. So their behavior towards certain video&#x2

Also: * Better to maintain a "allowed list" VS an "off-limits list" when setting boundaries. 1) The latter is simply not doable and everything you missed legitimately becomes allowed. 2) When in doubt your kid can come t

They have artistic people working at Valve: https://www.valvesoftware.com/en/people But it's an agile company. It means it's "Boss-free since 1996". It works as follows: The creative director has a

I still fail to see the problem. I understand your complaint. But Valve is doing fantastic. It's not their mission to bring out new titles. A company is not a democracy where we get "to vote" what direction they should take.

by bartimus 7y ago
I don't work at Valve. You're missing my point. I didn't say we don't need artists. I'm saying you shouldn't have artists taking leading roles in the fields that aren't artistic. Perhaps you're doing

Sorry, but even today (the most?) successful innovative games continue to come from people with engineering backgrounds. Also the engineers at Valve have continued to release games (Dota 2) and other valuable products that enabled many game

When running ads, Youtube allows you to target certain audiences. Perhaps they should just allow people to target (or block) certain content creators in a similar manner. Choose target video controversial threshold: 0 =O===== 100

It's a common misconception the amount of creativity that is required to engineer a product. Engineers are the creatives! All the greatest game titles were designed by people with an engineering background. It was only later that some

With an agile company nothing is definitive. It's just that at this point in time it's not the thing they're working on.

It's ridiculous how this article is displaying Valve's strength as a failure. Valve is exactly the poster boy of a successful agile organic company that is run by software engineers. A company able to reinvent itself to meet deman

To get lucky is something different from being a person who "has luck". The latter doesn't exist. Unless you believe in supernatural things. Everyone has the same chance to get lucky. You can position yourself to optimize you

Would you, as a mathematician, prefer a world where innovative theorems become covered in secrecy if it means such things couldn't be patented anymore?

> User Stories are supposed to be forecasts, not commitments. Indeed the commitment is supposed to be with the sprint goals. I've seen this vital aspect of scrum getting overlooked too often.

Purists will agree with you. Pragmatists perhaps not so much. I'm sad to see this opinion every time somebody mentions PHP. PHP may have its flaws. But how can anyone deny the instrumental role PHP has played in building the web as we

I'm fairly sure my 2012 core-i7 MacBook Pro with SSD and 16GB ram still has comparable performance for most applications. Single core speed has pretty much stagnated over the years.
