The problem with saying that "earning a living" is bogus is that it doesn't jibe well with the real world. Being poor is not a good mindset since it is tied to insecurities and uncertainty around food, shelter, and healthcare

reducesuffering, thank you for making me chuckle. In keeping with the grand theory that cryptocoins allow the rediscovery of financial regulations and procedures from first principles, the following could happen: * Coinbase uses the funding

A major component of the show however is the struggle for women to be seen as equals to men in the tech realm. Gordon's wife spends most of the first season as a homemaker despite being just as capable of an engineer as him. Cameron is

I think that the central gameplay loop can affect people differently. Some people can turn their conscious thought off and just go through a checklist of chores and it is relaxing. Others, like yourself, may find themselves stuck on the con

It's always fantastic to see these get released into the public domain. I am not someone who is trained to appreciate art, but I find it relaxing to take a break from coding to look at landscape paintings from time to time. I should al

NOTE: The views I'm expressing here are solely my own and say nothing about my employers views. I think that the tech industry has a severe code supply chain issue. Supply chains are a super hard problem with physical products (Raise a

It would be great if that were possible. Git commit signing is something that I would love to see be more commonplace, since it is a key part of a secured code supply chain. At my workplace I lead a project to make commit signing mandatory

Thank you for elaborating on that. You are very right - I went with the wrong meaning of free there. It is an unfortunate insight that the problems with ISO docs affect GNU software as well.

One interesting place this hits is with ISO and ANSI standards. Let's discuss a not so hypothetical situation. You are a (free) developer trying to get your crypto library FIPS 140 certified. You want to do this because it is the US Fe

I would modify your point #1 (decentralization must never be promoted to be a feature) to state: Openness, be it via a public API or freedom to take data out, should not be a central feature. Looking at the history of successful application

That's a very interesting thought. I don't have the opinion that administrative assistants scale well since the idea of "is this meeting important" is really based on understanding, for the person whose calendar is being

What about then, "What am I doing to ensure I can have a job in 6 months?" That could cover a broad number of items: keeping your resume up to date, networking with peers in your industry and other teams, staying sharp with new sk

This role does exist. It is called an "administrative assistant" and you see them at most companies above a certain size. The downside is that they will tend to be assigned only to executives above a certain rank.

Carmack's videos too are filled with fascinating technical details and thoughts. He rarely wastes words on fluff and is quick to point out shortcomings on his or his teams code as well as how to improve them. I find the way he communic

Adding onto that - your priority is to be able to ship features and have an ease of maintaining them. This setup works for you, so it's great to see it be shared.

Back when CVE-2020-15778 came out, there was an ongoing thread on openssh-unix-dev@ about deprecating scp. The main problem that I noticed from the dialogue was that the community felt (paraphrasing and summarizing) that "If you suppor
