So if a group of people wants to change the fundamental focus of this site from technology to animal evolution we're not allowed to say anything about it? Flagging doesn't do anything because too many people take your approach of

Why are there so many random NY Times articles ending up on the front page lately? Back 6 months ago I never remember seeing these articles and now there seems to be one hitting the front page every day. I could understand if they were rel

From what I hear, the roles are quickly collapsing at Microsoft. In the service orgs especially, the role that was previous done by a Test team is now handled by the Dev team. They are also increasing the ratio between PM and Dev (less PMs

When I say engineering is about making it work, I mean it mostly in the sense that nobody gets to see how the sausage is made. No customer is ever going to critique your code or double check your cement pour. As long as it works, that'

You call it pigeonhole but a lot of people call it specialization. Some trades require it, others don't. I don't think you can generalize it and call it a problem. It's almost like expecting an expert plumber to wire up your

I think you're confusing visual design and UX design. I agree that UX design is mostly about making things work. Visual design (fonts, color palettes, use of white space, emphasis, etc) is mostly arbitrary, touchy-feely stuff. Some peo

While there might not be anything stopping somebody from being both a great developer and great designer, I've never come across somebody that is (though I've come across people that think they are...). I've seen exceptional

I would save yourself the trouble and create a separate domain now for customer subdomains. The problem with your current path is that it is impossible to tell the difference between a 7sheep.net subdomain that is owned and operated by 7she

This project is a mess. The boring has stopped until 2015 due to damage done to the drill and the cost has been steadily increasing. You can read more at http://seattletimes.com/html/localnews/2024187017_berthade

Most developers already have a build system to concatenate and minify javascript and css files, plugging in the html minifier is straight-forward and doesn't add any additional complexity really. And since the minification is done at

I've never understood why people put Scientology in a different bucket than other religions such as Christianity. I wonder why you didn't comment 'The 79 Christians are trolls, right? ...right?'

Every time I come across one of these color generators it just reminds how much a good designer is worth. Putting together a pleasing color palette with the appropriate amount of contrast, interest, and color quality is really hard to do. I

Of course there is. They have to draw the line somewhere and there is always going to be an applicant that fell just below the line. I doubt Quora will take up as much bandwidth as other startups, but I'm sure it still figured into th
