Whole Foods customers did expect to receive "premium" food at a premium price, but even the richest of them were starting to notice that it was so significantly higher that they would shop elsewhere for at least some of it. Loweri

Your experience differs from mine. Having deployed around 15 production apps for various clients and my own companies, there's just one thing you're leaving out: Apple is not the only maker of smartphones that exists. The choices

Nor have I. As a manager/co-owner I can't think of a reasonable business-friendly way to allow my developers to spend work time on OSS. I would love to, of course, but our systems really do not facilitate community involvement.

Doxxing is a toxic problem on the internet. However this is not really his "personal" information. It's his professional contact information, which he publishes freely, and uses to attempt to persuade government officials. Co

So much for that whole constitution thing anyway.. They can just create some "act" that overrides it! And nobody will complain because the person affected is the bad guy, until they come for them.

Would it be correct to say that there is a threshold where the value of a bitcoin makes it reasonable for retailers/small business/etc to invest in using them as an actual currency at the register? If that's the case, then it

I think it is misleading to say everything was in return for only 50 jobs. Data centers require huge investments in development, connectivity, energy supply. All of these things take people to make happen.

I don't know any specific examples, but I wonder how much of our knowledge today came from people working under these conditions. It's terrible, but do we now retain knowledge learned from people experimenting on humans under Hitl

I had a dev write some "modern" Javascript in a project. We neglected to test in slightly out-of-date safari on Mac. Took forever to figure out that "let" keyword was not supported.

I like to think that I defer to others when I feel I'm out of my realm of knowledge. But I can't possibly see how that is either (1) effective or (2) not-insulting to the recipient. "Here, you can't be trusted to buy the

Not really a bad thing, just maybe disappointing. I've been a professional coder for 10 years, and now am at an "executive"-level at a small startup, and I make the high end of that. In my area, that is a very strong upper-mi

This may be so. I often wonder though if this "disaster recovery plan" has been tested with any bank of significant size. Maybe that's where the whole too-big-to-fail thing comes in.

So IMO what you are referring to is a difference between urban and suburban/rural. Where I live, properties are well separated, and multi-tenant apartments and condos already have rules for things like this. As I'm sure you are aw

Thank you, somebody who gets it. "But my neighbors are complaining!" has somehow trumped "It's my property." in the modern age. If neighbors don't like what their neighborhood is becoming, they should move. Asi
