Same here. It's partially why I became a programmer – closest thing to being a wizard I could find. I still have the original paperback versions that I read as a child sitting on my shelf waiting for my son. He's 2 1/2 right

The first three books of "The Wrinkle in Time" series. The first three books of the Earthsea cycle by Ursula K. LeGuin. These both skew young but I valued re-reading them as I got older: The Dot and the Line: http://en.

This book! A great introduction to transactional analysis and a very useful tool for disarming and defusing interpersonal strife. This book helped me figure out that, in personal relationships especially, I could raise the discussion by one

IANAL. I'm not a GPL expert. But here's my reasoning: 1. Code written under the GPL is value created for public consumption. VMWare is violating the spirit of reciprocity by benefiting from that value, creating more value on top o

This is 100% my situation with my side project. Understanding that all of these are approximations for a weekday: 12-9: sleep then get kiddo ready then get me ready. 9-5: job. 5-6: transit (ouch). 6-9: family. 9-11: side project (occasional

I think being a tech lead in a flat organization is more of a matter of being the techy that other techies want to talk to. Sure, those other people aren't your direct reports... but there are still plenty of leadership and mentor oppo

That's one of the problems with rendering UIs on canvas: it doesn't work with a11y. And since it's not rendering tags, there's nowhere to hang the ARIA attributes.

What are the accessibility implications of drawing all controls of a web app to the canvas using React? Are there ARIA annotations available for React already?

I'll put in a vote for Hexo: http://hexo.io/ Node.js-based, lots of plugins available via npm, sane themeing syntax. I have a script that generates my site and then pushes it to S3. My site, such as it is, is available

You're totally right. But I think it's interesting to pick a bunch of random Instagram users in your area whose address you now know who start posting photos that are geotagged out of town. Now you know where they live and that th

Seconded. Covers a lot of ground, lots of great examples, the code is language-agnostic (Python-ish). Hard to go wrong with this book on your shelf.

I think, at least in the US, our extreme politicization makes that difficult: http://www.vox.com/2014/11/1/7136343/gamergate-and-the-polit... My favorite part of this article is the graph showing how &qu

CoreWars but with JS and GitHub! Cool idea. I'd be very interested in hearing about the server-side setup, especially around isolating the code so some rando doesn't "require('fs')" and do damage to the server.

It does, yeah! Thanks for letting me pester you.

What does it do when there's 10k items? Is there a search or are you scrolling through all of them to find what you want? Is each expansion a network request to get the fields of the child? I've been thinking a lot about how to so

This looks and performs pretty great. Good job! Is this going to replace Forge? How much large of a list have you opened up in it? 1k? 10k? I don't have a Firebase with a ton of children off a leaf or else I'd test it myself. ( =

For easy-to-use OSX automation I'm a big fan of Hazel: http://www.noodlesoft.com/hazel.php I bet you could set up something similar in it.

It seems like such an obvious idea: rather than rely on mathematical guessing games with easing functions, animate the elements at the velocity of the user's gesture and apply physics to that. Having messed around with 2d games this se

I'm not super interested in developing a hierarchy of sins since I don't think it's useful or realistic. You asked if he'd engaged in actual discrimination -- by donating that money, he had. Having the opinion wasn'

Yes. I think turning this into a discussion about "Person A supported political position X and People Y protested against it" misses a lot of the subtlety in the piece. I was thinking more about those times that I've sat in w

No, I'm bigoted against people who send money to organizations who support kicking puppies. Just to stretch this metaphor to the breaking point. EDIT: His donation is actual discrimination based on someone's sexual identity.

Yes, but don't minimize it. Metaphorically, it's the difference between a guy with a big stick who makes stuff up so he can beat your face and a crowd of people voting on what court system to set up to give you a trial.

by drhayes9 12y ago
I disagree. The strict definition of bigotry is viewing other groups with suspicion, hatred, whatever. So, yes, I'm okay with being bigoted against people who kick puppies. I think the more meaningful definition of bigotry within the c

I'll risk more downvotes, I guess, what the heck. Here are the main differences I see: the power dynamic at play, the scale of the effort, and the availability of concrete proof of action. The Hollywood Blacklist was an attempt by stud

Except for threatening someone's life? Let's not get too hyperbolic here. A rich, white guy was forced out of a CEO position and he was "silenced"? He could have given interviews about his position at any tech magazine h
