I get anxious when I feel unprepared. It sounds like you feel unprepared to handle the task(s) at hand- this can be a very stressful situation. I've been there and I've supported others going through this as well. The way I overc

People are what make game companies great, not names or logos. There's something to say for maintaining the direct line of employee descendants to the original Sim City.

Yes. My Chihuahua has seen the best improvements after being out of our home for a week while we went on vacation- we also felt better too. I assumed we had a mold problem, but those test recently came up negative. I should note I have the

This is sort of off topic, but I'm right in the middle of ripping up floors from Lumber Liquidators that I put down a few years ago- parts that are at the center of this cluster fuck. My whole family has been struggling with health iss

I absolutely love unity. I've been playing with it on and off for the past few years and it has been surprisingly easy for me to pick up. The free version has a pretty spectacular feature set. I've had a lot of fun with 2d mode-

Has anyone played with Atom NeoVim? That looked like the most promising gui based approach. I'm sticking with macVim in the near term, but I'd love to play with Atom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH_zb7X6mZw

"Are you expressing the inaccurate belief that everything in the world is made in your country?" This is a little passive aggressive, don't you think? ISIS' enemy is anyone that embraces western culture. I don't t

I'm sure I could handle challenging heights if I had to in an emergency, but looking at those pics is giving me vertigo in my chair.

Does this actually represent the salary of the individual or what a consulting company is paying for them, or a combination of both?

Definitely (I'd be hypocritical to say I didn't take advantage of that myself), but when I hit 25 those zero interest loans weren't there anymore.

I completely agree about not quitting (if the job is unsatisfying). I've found I consistently have way more confidence going on an interview already employed.

I think if you need to work at McDonalds to avoid calling mom and dad for money, then that's honorable. The easy unsustainable way out is not usually the best. I've been there.

I consistently deal with this as do many of my coworkers. Here's some suggestions: - Take care of your immediate responsibilities first (rent, food, loan payments, etc)- this is non-negotiable unless you have a golden parachute (i.e.

I feel these interfaces can be a bit of a crutch, I'd much rather have users interfacing with an API than manipulating the DB directly.

It seems the standards-based browser du jour is moving back in Mozilla's favor lately. I can say, for the first time in ages, that FF is very fast, very stable and very secure. Chrome, on the other hand, has been less stable, less fa

I can't disagree enough. Apple does not care about design language, as long as it looks decent and is consistent. It's very easy to throw a few boxes together and call them buttons, that's what Apple doesn't like- thes

Anyone that has ever used xslt in a non-trivial way most likely understands that it is a terrible answer to just about any problem. Complexity for the sake of complexity is never a good path to follow.

I generally hire devs on odesk for front end work (css/html). We'll put out a request for work, interview the most promising candidates and hire 2. Both of them work on the exact same thing, we just choose the better implementatio

Not all gems are created equal. Large amount of gems don't necessarily mean that they are arbitrarily included. In fact, it's often better to pull in a dependency for things that specialize in a particular task because they are
