I couldn't struggle through this tripe. There's too much science fiction that's actually interesting to waste time on the Handmaid's Tale and it's bizarrely nonsensical kinky society.

Well, the obvious reason would be if you don't really like having to interact with people. It's exhausting for some of us. The greatest work week of my life, everybody else in the company was in Florida for a trade show. There w

People who can actually get work done and do the hard things are hard to come by, unfortunately. You can be quite an asshole if you deliver and there's no one else around competent enough to take over.

WinForms has always been a viable option.

That is what I use these days, although I've switched to Mint instead of Ubuntu.

Any day I don't have to go to the office is a good day.

It sounds to me like some other asshole discovered that this guy was into some unusual stuff in his personal life, and decided to go out of his way to be offended about it, make a big stink about it and stir the pot. Given the choice, it&#x

I guess you can't use any of your paycheck to support your union, then, because it is working against the interests of your employer who paid you that salary.

If it's a nephew, and they are old enough to not asphyxiate themselves, then the obvious answer is always Lego. Little boys fucking love Legos.

Remember when ReCaptcha used Google Books snippets? You may not, it's been swapped over to Street View images for a while. But Google Books has been a big deal for automated OCR.

I'm sad that outfits like Project Gutenberg are stonewalled at 1923 or whatever year Steamboat Willie came out. There are so many good books whose authors' grandchildren are dead, that can't legally be reproduced.

I love the Phabricator website. It's nearly impossible to distinguish from a work of satire.

We've just spent the last 10 years spinning to get back to where we were, because Steve Jobs vetoed Flash support. Before that, we bailed on similar capabilities from Java applets, and had to reimplement them. Doubtless there's m

Or the needless confusion when everything needed to have .NET tacked onto the name. Or after they bought Skype, and rebranded the unrelated Lync as Skype for Business. Not to mention that Lync is a homophone of LINQ, which was coming out ar

Comparing Atom and IntelliJ is like comparing a BB gun to a 155mm howitzer.

There's probably, line for line, more VB6 desktop apps in existence than any other language. And that's not just because of how verbose VB is...

The future, where we write in native languages, that are compiled to Javascript, run in a webbrowser VM, and power desktop applications. Jesus wept.

I'm surprised to see so little mention of Java as a cross-platform native app platform. Maybe I'm just old enough to remember coming up though when Swing and AWT were the next big thing. Nowadays, IntelliJ and it's derivati

If I have to go to the office: maybe 2 hours a day of actual productive work. If I work from home: usually 4-6 hours of productive work. Going to the office adds up to a ten-hour day, with the commute. Working from home is usually a 6-7 ho

Going into even more debt for a second degree is a dangerous decision. I'd hope that they retrain for a career that at least has the potential for paying them a wage that would make them financially independent. I know too many peopl

> Like, shit man, sometimes it takes me more than 3 minutes to reply on Slack because I'm doing shit. Go do some stretches or something ... Amen. Especially when the only proper response is a LMGTFY.

Standups are a complete waste of time. Whoever floated that idea and made it popular should be ashamed of themselves. I was sick of "circle time" and "show and tell" when I was in kindergarten. I don't need to dea
