I tend to agree with you, however google isn’t as straightforward as it used to be. Every developer and their mom has a blog these days, or a brand, whatever. Sometimes just cross referencing fundamentals and bonafides is a time sink. That

True, but the actual percentage of “vast” is debatable. There are many ways that your DNA can be collected including when being arrested, for medical treatment, military or civil service, or just at birth [1]. 1. http://www.cnn.c

Faces, DNA, and relationships aren’t particularly new data points. The government has my passport photo, DNA (military record), and can check out my tax returns, Facebook, Twitter, etc to see who my wife, children, business partners, cowork

I was overly coddled and eventually got past it. However, like you mentioned, I have anxiety and it causes similar obstacles. I’m interested to hear what you think helps?

It has been 24 hours since GDPR came into effect. To be blunt, if anyone’s business has been affected dramatically, then their business is likely too brittle or unethical. If that’s the case, you should rethink your business model.

That’s pretty crazy considering smart phones have become ubiquitous relatively recently. I like to think my kids enjoy devices and digital stimuli in moderations, and do try to read to them often, but I wish there was a decent way of checki

A conference for Slack developers? I think it may be time to pump the breaks on the developer conference train. We have so many options for telecommuting and should encourage more conferences to take advantage of that on a grander scale.

Not surprising. If people can play their PC games via Steam, they’ll be less likely to purchase games and in-app purchases on iOS. That said, Steam’s argument is technically true (I think) - their app is basically a remote desktop client. I

There are plenty of private prisons in the US and most of them are terrible. You’re right that the barrier to entry and long term prospects of running private prisons isn’t lucrative enough for more competitors to enter into. Regulation is
