Seems like avoiding undercooked pork and fecal contamination should do it.

I think we need no more a concise declaration of your bias than this.

I really don't know why people worry so much about this. I don't think dissuading people from entering any field is surprising. Generally, experts in a field want passionate, talented people, because that's how the field will likely advance

Damn.. Here, I was hoping you actually knew of an alternative, because I, for one, wish I had choices for system-level programming.

Really? Name high-performance systems programming languages besides C and C++ because I'd really love to switch.

I have to agree with Jeff Atwood's original post, here. The complexity of modern society is requiring individuals to be more specialized. If anything we need improved communication so that inter-disciplinary projects proceed efficiently. As

Exactly. People really need to get off their high horse. Regarding the github pull request interface, I actually find it reassuring that Linus has rather strict requirements for contributing to the kernel source.

Is anyone really surprised that Microsoft continues this behavior? For the fan-boys (not that I expect there are many): the purpose of standards, whether you like them or not, is to ease development and promote products with actual value -

Can we please stop titling postings like this? How about "An Alternative to the Python Subprocess Interface". Fixing something implies that it's broken or inadequate, and from my limited experience, Subprocess is already a major improvement

Wow. This in no way relates to actually useful development practices.

It really surprises me how many nay-sayers have posted negative comments, here. Bottom line is that, because of the popularity of paying with credit cards, merchants have to pass on the cost of transaction fees to consumers. Consumers pay.

The author of this article is exactly the customer credit card companies don't want. They actually lose money. The irony of extolling the virtues of good credit card use is that if everyone who owned a credit card did the same, credit cards

My thoughts exactly. Companies might choose as this CLO someone with considerable PR experience. Lawyers, almost by definition alone, lack this experience.

Wow. Virtual round of applause for such dedication. Those guys need a medal: even prison inmates are allowed more frequent showers.

I encourage people to follow this. We need more data on outsourcing effectiveness. If I were the author, however, I would not use HP as a success story.

If we're going to be posting judgmentally titled articles, then why don't we post "why perl is the language of the past." I suspect the main reason languages like perl and FORTRAN are still used is because of legacy and tradition. But I ack

One comment on the site stated that as long as we're using theory to disprove experimental results, we might as well just republish Einstein's original paper and call it done. Until someone actually dicovers the source of error and repeats

My wife recently opened my eyes to the idea that the low rate of female to male programmers is far more cultural than genetic. I found a link, in fact, that speaks more to this: http://www.themarysue.com/women-programming-over-the-years/

Has anyone done this for programmer Dvorak yet? I guess I'm just looking for validation..

I have looked through google patents beta just to see how ridiculous many software patents are, and though my sample size was small, most seemed pretty obvious ideas to me. Truly amazing that lawyers can write so much text about so trivial

Developers should already know this. Is computational theory an elective in some colleges, or have some developers not gone to college? Both seem unlikely.

Perhaps this will make facebook better. Competition can often improve product quality. For google this might, however, turn out the same way that Microsoft's grab for web applications is going. First to market is hard to break.

Ouch, my history! Seriously, this was an experience. I might go as far as calling it art.
