My story is, I think, atypical. I have no college experience, have been in IT for 19 years, and am now 42. I was hired to my current gig 11 years ago to fill an emergency need for someone with perl and B2B experience, where I showed myself

I think he may have meant 1/12th rather than 1/2th of the speed of light, but I must say I'm very tempted now to start calling one half a "tooth" instead.

I've had good luck with Apache Commons. What specifically do you find objectionable about it? Also, you really shouldn't just drop "x sucks" into a conversation without backing it up with something reasonable. Or was thi

OK. Dear vast majority.... Actually I'm in that boat, too, but of my own doing. At where I work (a large utility in the midwest), we match 75 cents on the dollar up to 6%, so essentially 4.5%. I stopped contributing a few years back to

The video did not include any comments about million dollar babies. It did show him saying a 3% match on 401k is a great deal... which it isn't.

Watching the video of Satya, I found that I was most happy about all the plants in their building. Also it's interesting to listen to Satya's native accent come and go depending on what he's talking about.

OkCupid is how my wife and I met. She was one of two women I exchanged messages with, and the only one I met in person. We've been married for 5 years and have had two children. I have no idea what our match percentage was, and there w

A bug in my code doesn't make javascript horrible, it makes me horrible for rushing to illustrate a point instead of just harrumphing internally and finishing my coffee. Good catch.

"JavaScript is horrible." > function byNum(a,b) {return +a>+b} undefined > [5, 10, 1].sort(byNum) [1, 5, 10] No, it's not.

There wasn't a good description of what overall task his program was trying to do, or any source code showing how he approached maps, etc. Other than that, it sounds like proof. Of everything.

"In the USA, we are skeptical of the benefits of the government making it a law to do mothering the way the government wants you to." What an ignorant statement. Maternity and paternity leave are about requiring employers to allow

I agree with the goal of this site, however you're not going to open a good dialog with W3Schools if your opening volley is calling them fools.

The author has quite a "Grapes of Wrath" style of writing. [edit: Grammar. Oh, the irony.]

Just about anything by bell hooks. But if you want a specific starting point, try "Feminism is for Everybody".

Oh please. Obviously he's undercover. The ingenious part was getting his car to throw a rod exactly next to the drug kingpin's house.

"Sorry, not interested in trivial changes like that." If you insist on that attitude, don't ask how to get more women in tech.

I'd say time spent optimizing grep (GNU or otherwise) is always well spent. Saving a clock cycle or two per execution in my work's enterprise would translate into needing to lease less hardware, based just on how much grep is used

No. That wouldn't be direct contact, and is, again, more likely to cause injury because you're not getting good kinesthetic feedback. What I'm talking about is what the L&D doctor did when my daughter was born a couple mo

Safe my big ol' butt. You're inflating something against baby's head and pulling on it. You're also losing tactile feedback that you'd get by direct contact with baby, which may cause you to inadvertently pull harde

I like the idea of turning off comments, and then linking to a Reddit post in the video description. An alternative to that, should you not be balking at required G+ integration, is visiting the comment management[1] page. It should be poss

A simple "constructor.name" query covers most of this. You still need edge case checkers for null, Nan, and Infinity, but... function type(a) { var t = a.constructor.name.toLowerCase(); return t.match(/^html/

Couldn't agree more. The WP:NOT page seems to address this with "Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal", but with how prevalent maths jargon appears without anything layman-accessible describin

I couldn't get it to work in Chrome ("keyCode of undefined" errors). This is similar to something I wrote for Automattic recently. I was pretty pleased with how I tackled annotations across block level elements. Essentially y

There are thousands of us who see the subtle implications of comments, and roll our collective eyes at the knee-jerk, replies from people who missed it. The proclivity for this type of boring, predictable reply is the main reason I don&#x27

I've heard of this before with cheap plastics, like "pony beads", for instance. What I really wonder, though, is if this will be forever linked in the consumer collective mind with Dell returning to privately owned status.

I have no interest in what's available in Tokyo, only in how Abigail got that mess of an article taken seriously. You have bold claims regarding my understanding and intent to offend. Elaborate.

I loved the picture of the couple leaning away from each other; I think I was supposed to see that as an indicator of the purported epidemic. I think what the article was, however, was an advertisement for the former dominatrix. Apparently
