I used to work for a company that made EHR software. Doctors have very little patience for computer issues; most don't enjoy using them. My job at the time would involve me talking to most IT folks at hospitals, and they would have som

It's probably more profitable to leave it the way it is... Which opens up the door for a competitor. Imagine if there was a different site that became known for its highly reliable ratings. It would eat Amazon's lunch and dinner.

Windshield aerodynamic have also improved a lot over the years. I used to have an 1988 Volvo 240 that was a magnet for bugs just a few years ago. Went to south Florida about three weeks ago... my windshield was almost completely covered in

I completely switched whenever FF quantum was released to stable. The experience is amazing. I will say I think chrome dev tools are better though.

I have a friend who used to be a shift manager at Chick-fil-A. I can't remember exactly what he called that process... It was like meet and greet or walk and talk, but it's surprisingly efficient for the drive thru. He said it cut

In GA, as long as the engine size is less than 50cc, then you don't need a license plate or a special license. But you can't drive it on the interstate and most major highways, for obvious reasons.

I am willing to bet flutter will be a pretty great success... have you used cordova/ionic/phonegap? (I can't personally speak for react native) There's a lot of ceremony in those tools, and debugging is clunky because yo

My only complaint so far is some things are not documented very well. I started leveraging the json_serializable lib and all my responses were returning null... it took me a few days of heavy debugging to figure out it was how I crafted my

Honesty, I think I would enjoy electrical engineering or computer engineering more than computer science. I just didn't really have those other choices at the university I attended. If I could do it again, I would probably go with elec

A few years ago, I decided to try working with a recruiter. I had never worked with one before, and I wasn't sure what to expect. But the first thing the guy did was spam my resume to like 60 something different companies. Eventually I

When I originally went to university, I went for music because I thought it was fun. However, I was terrible at my music classes because I didn't enjoy many of them. Theory, conducting, and just doing scales all day. At some point I wa

Things we're normally pretty well organized, except that day that we had to pick up everything. We moved all the deliveries to the front, but we had WAY more pickups than the driver expected and that's how they got mixed up. Plus

I did a holiday stent with them while I was in university. I was a package runner, so I would take the packages from the truck to the house, while the driver could organize everything and get things ready for the next few houses. The worst

You don't really need to know Erlang. Elixir is like if Erlang and Ruby had a child. It's a functional languages, so I guess there's a bit of a curve there. Plus you get stuff like macros, which are incredible, but I thought

Coming from nodejs, phoenix is incredible. Out of the box, phoenix just uses nodejs to generate all your frontend assets, and channels are incredibly easy to use. I'm still learning about how elixir works under the covers, but so far I

The FCC does have the authority to revoke licenses based on content, but it's rare for them to do so. However, this entire situation is ultimately a consequence of revoking the FCC fairness doctrine. ( https://en.wikipedia.or
