I've met lots of people who code C++, and advocate C++. I've met lots of people who code Java, Ruby, etc and advocate those. I've met very few people who've shipped one product using C++ and another using Java/whatever - but those who have?

LOL. 200k? 20 devs? To build store.target.com? They'd better be awesome, and that awesome doesn't walk for 200K. That level of awesome builds the product (show don't tell) and then sells it for $180m.

I knew a fellow at college who was awesome at setting up experiments and having them work . He worked with some incredibly bright post-grads and post-docs who couldn't scramble an egg. Sometimes you get these two "intelligences" in the sam

Observe that the definition of "foreign Internet site" does not state that the site is located outside the USA, owned by a non US Citizen, or any other commonly understood meaning of the word "foreign". All "domestic" sites also meet the

Do we really want a group to model how to destroy a politician using data mining and potentially nefarious hacking, when it's an issue that WE support that they're being targeted for? You seem to be assuming three things: 1. Industry does

I'm paranoid, so I have two rules: 1. If you are using a hardware raid solution, then RAID1, and only if one of the drives can be pulled out and used by a standard SATA controller to get the data off. Controllers that munge the MBR just go

You pad the rows manually. Then you start loading bigger chunks of data at a time. Then you start issuing prefetch instructions with compiler intrinsics or inline assembly. Then you ask "why am I dealing with this at all?" and use Intel's m

My guess is that you are being modded down because your statement is of a form that many people have heard in real life and associate with poor performance. It shows a lack of thinking about jobs. However, I'm going to give you the benefit
