Indeed. It would help not calling them by a generic "Stem Cell research" name . Yes, some cell sources fall in the grey, almost black part of the line, but there are other being completely safe and out of ethical concerns. For example, disc

Another option is to have the schema creation/upgrade as scripts (either hand made or autogenerated ) , then check them into source control. And resist the temptation of hacking the schema directly in your servers, it ends being a larger ef

True. So true. The thing is c++ is a vast massive monster. Most likely whoever deeply worked on it, knows there's so much stuff left to learn, and so many deep dives, that whoever claims expertise is likely to be a newbie who hasn't been cl

I wonder what made you go for a TN rather than an H1B. I pushed and switched to H1B from a TN because of the dual intent ,and to file a PERM. Also,I've read that as long you don't own >51% of the company you can work for it under a visa

When I think to myself: I could go on a couple hours more ,but I know tomorrow I'll be wasted. The extra hour will become 2 extra sleep hours the next day so , not worth it. Working until passing out feels like an illusion of accomplishing

Would be good to see how longer training for a way more extended period of time works out. Still, I wasn't expecting an IQ bump from playing a lot of Brain Age on the DS, but I bet many people did.

That'll be cool, but the mail says: "The CSA role was unique and I won’t refill the role after Ray’s departure".

Depends on what you like doing:) My major was on AI on college and ended up not not doing anything related to it. More than your CS schoolwork background, I found that previous work, demos, and internships help you getting a job. In my situ

Practice often... and know your language well. There is a huge difference between knowing and KNOWING. Knowing your tools well enough lets you focus on the problem rather than searching how to hacking your way through. Don't be a copy paste

Mexico. From 10K to 30K usd per year. Then substract ~30% in tax. 50K if it is a very very senior job. Life is a lot cheaper though. Still, engineering isn't very well paid back there, and options to work on something awesome are way more l

It's human error. Simple as that. Happens to absolutly everyone even the brightest individuals. I've seen in "the livesite" that this kind of spike problems are more common than you think, and the ideal solution is to automate an alarm that

Like almost everyone else around here, I used to when I was a kid. Finding hard copies of software was hard. Even if I found them, I couldn't afford most programs like Turbo C or Visual C++ so downloading was a must. Console games were supe

If you mean the C++ Win32 API, then probably ...no. Most will never even touch and won't need it except if it is coding some low level/ funky / or hardware related thing under windows.
