I don't agree with the snarky tone of this comment. I'm not a Go programmer, but I've seen many concepts touted as "progress" over the past 20 years which have been dead ends. I think it is reasonable for designers

I've been working in the mortgage industry for the past few months and have learned a bit about the business. What Zillow does with its Zestimate product really isn't that novel. There is a whole class of products available called

Ok, so I'm confused. Why would you want to use DP with ThunderBolt 2? Is this only for 4k monitors?

I talked to a friend of mine today who has a serious opiate addiction. It is heartbreaking. He is on the verge of losing what he has left to lose, but I don't know if there is anything to do. He refuses to seek treatment. I think his o
