How many of the people closely involved in these market-moving Fed statements are trading crypto futures with insider information? It's probably virtually impossible to know, and it's almost certainly occurring. Because of this c

It's less about what I expected, but more about what I did not expect. The pace of technology change has accelerated dramatically, the complexity of software has grown beyond imagination, and perhaps correspondingly, the fragility and

Of course it's corporate corruption of government that is driving this case. "he is an engineer at heart and speaks up when he sees people make what he believes to be engineering mistakes. He has written letters to state and count

But all our assumptions or beliefs about what is possible and what can/would be observable is based on our, well, current understanding of reality. Since generally speaking, humans know or understand a bit more today than they did yest

Indeed as a candidate, I don't want to waste my time either. Your clients know their budgets. Why not just be upfront about that to the candidates. Tell us your budget or reasonable expected range your client can pay. Then if (when)

After being enticed to take their quiz and achieving perfect or near perfect (I forget now) generalist score, I was marked as hotlisted for a tech interview position with them. Keep in mind, they solicited me for this. No response after ge

It is typical human self-centeredness to assume we are the only sentient beings with the ability to move ourselves around a plane or beyond. It is also mathematically silly to assume that of all possible beings over current universe timelin

It’s just one way to attempt to compare since wealthy people typically don’t have “income” like normal workers do. It is an imperfect approach, but it does at least give some way of comparing.

If humanity is one great experiment, I sadly predict that greed, fear of loss, and zero-sum behavior is the majority outcome. And for the record, I never liked repl.it because it was usually slow.

I always wonder how typos make it to production on the front page, in bold. "Big Mail is packed with advance features to make your inbox smarter"... (for those missing the typo, it should be _advanced features_) It is nitpicking

The language isn't what's difficult to grasp or what needs more explanation. What's missing is current complete examples with the library choices and configuration all worked out.

This is clickbait. Much of what is presented as evidence of how bad native English speakers are would apply to people of other languages if they were the natives and English speakers were the guests. But with respect to the one word financ

When some organization gets serious about providing complete ClojureScript education and tutorials, especially covering the setup/config challenges... and then keeps those current so the examples always work, then this could be a reali

Viewer attention is increasingly limited these days, so avoiding small mistakes which limit your audience is recommended. Dark mode content such as TFA is practically unreadable outside in bright light. Your reader will need to remember to

I really enjoy the language and even the look of it, and I have tried several times to use it. For "simple" scripts or server processes that you might call from cron, it was fine. But for web development, it was always so hard to

Yes, it is often used to imply a software bug which may or may not exist, but without taking any responsibility (or rather, pushing the blame on developers).

I wish that word would die. It is used far too often to imply that software made a mistake (presumably had a bug) when in fact the user misunderstood something or pushed the wrong button. Its overuse leads people to mistrust systems more t

If the little guy is indeed little and is earning little or none from their content, then is the copyright holder being harmed? Or is the copyrighted material being promoted, thereby increasing the potential value of that original material?

Everywhere I’ve been except for IBM in the 90s, documentation is not given priority (time) as would be needed to both write the first round adequately and then maintain it as realities change. Tools are much less a problem. I suspect also t

There is much greater consumption of processed food today than 30 years ago. "Food science" wasn't so clever back then, so the boxed and premade foods were not especially tasty. Now they can be addictively tasty. And in the

BMI is a fairly decent measure for folks who don't work out or otherwise build excess muscle. And since that's _most_ Americans, BMI is a good starting point to use when judging health fitness.
