It doesn't cost that much either. [1] [1] Ex-CTO Those ratios are for average salaries, not $125k salaries.

No, it's still common to have in-house "find a good node" code that fires up and takes down machines until one that will be reliable is found.

Silencers aren't illegal at all. And really the proper term is sound suppressor, they're far from silent.

Not sure why you'd think benefits are involved here. And a $125k salary does not cost $250k.

I don't think Pittsburgh has the funding to do it. You're looking at a budget of ~$450mm. I think the funding, rather than the locale, is the blocker here.

The problem is that most local governments that want a tech hub are either focusing on tech already and will think they don't need this, or are on the other end of the spectrum and simply don't care. The key is to find a city on the cusp of

I was giving advice to the general audience. I have to admit, I find the jargon of this particular sub-culture of analyzing corporate politics somewhat annoying despite being a fan of Church.

Your job is to produce surplus value for your employer in exchange for reduced risk and possibly to specialize into work you find interesting. (Machine Learning doesn't happen without division of labor.) You do not owe your employer your sa

Good to know. The package management is going to be particular interest to me.

Okay? But when is somebody going to fix the documentation and keep it in sync with the language's development? I've never once had a problem with Go's documentation and it started out as a relatively casual project that is more peripheral t

I've spent some time in their IRC channel and tried to use the language at a few points. They're nice people but not really interested in helping anybody use the language that isn't an intern working on it. Or at least, that was the case at

I think this speaks to conscientious language design combined with the use of LLVM as a backend. Pretty excited about Rust, it's the best (virtually) no-compromise developing option for systems work. Curious to see where it starts to actual

FUSE can be really ugly sometimes though, kernel modules are better if you need any real reliability.

So, what's their upgrade path situation? Are they going to try to hold out indefinitely on 2.3? Upgrade at the last possible moment? (Ick) Switch out of Rails when the situation becomes intolerable?

I have an emacs macro that redirects stdout and hooks in ipdb , the i here is important because it's an ipython wrapped pdb session. It's amazing. JS is the usual Chrome debugger instrumentation. Clojure is a mixture of REPL, println, and

You haven't read "Lean Startup" yet you're leaning on it as a source of authority? And you sign your comments as if we can't see your bloody username? I have read Lean Startup and guided the development of products based on it so let me t

The rate at which I can consume material definitely varies depending on the material. I read philosophy a good 2-3x slower than literature. It's a little bit disingenuous to suggest those speaking of speed reading are saying, "1,000 WPM ALL

Design reviews were big at my last company partly because the designer was DYING for feedback.

The "effective" part is a measurement of the retention. In my case, we're talking about 95-98%. I don't understand why people are so scornful of speed reading :\

Do it when you can see the fuckers and run if you need to. When I was 12 I once took out a hornet nest with a water hose by simply doing rounds of blasting them with water then running away while they tried to chase me.
