Could you go into what the price difference is or what your use case is? Just curious in what situations I might want to consider Google over S3.

If my last post came across as a suggestion to move your family here, that was not my intention. I mentioned it to contrast happiness against economic success. In American media, the two are so frequently treated as the same, and from wha

Sure. I quit my job in June and a friend invited me to visit. I checked out some local communities corresponding to my interests in America: tech, startups and dancing. The communities were lively, yet different enough that they caught m

It seems like there's an assumption in your post and in your fears: unhappiness comes from poverty and a lack of high-demand skills. I think that's a common narrative in America, and I certainly have it somewhat ingrained. I rece

The author makes no mention of friends. The 90% figure comes from the frequency with which he currently sees his parents and sisters. The title is link-bait-y, but I think there's actually some substance there: by 30, you've seen

I feel like I've seen similar things, but I would phrase it differently. It seems like--on average, not as a a rule--women find men who are more socially adept to be more attractive. This is measured partly in how a man hits on a woma

Those are the same reasons I've heard for why we have a young age distribution in tech relative to the age distribution of the general population. Poor industry retention seems to be a problem across the board.

Can you speak more to what about his code base makes you say this? I very rarely hear people speak positively about former stewards of a codebase, so this sounds like a great learning opportunity for the rest of us.

This raises an interesting paradox to me. How would the people writing the marketing copy for any product that was supposedly Superfish-resilient actually know that it was? Is the solution to simply not have marketing around such technical

This is a risk the datacenter exposes their customers to by nature of how they operate. It's a major selling point to me that AWS employs some more sophisticated countermeasures to attacks like these. If their typical response to ranso

Pretty cool achievement. The prices ($300, $450, $600) for the different kinds of kits make this seem like a poor investment if one is just looking for a violin.

I don't agree with this mod decision. The detached post responds to a point in the parent comment and this thread is generally discussing a theme of the original post: Asian Americans being second class citizens.

Those strike me as understandable sentiments, but I do think they are racist. Are they bigoted? No. Racist? Yes. Such sentiments try to extrapolate information on a group of people based off of a non-random sampling. There's bias in

As another Asian-American guy, I want to second this. Up until earlier this year, I felt paralyzed and victimized by American society. That is, I felt passively punished for not looking like Brad Pitt, Justin Beiber, or other American sex

You may want to consider CSS breakpoints. They'll do that automatically without the page refresh, assuming the content layout is done using CSS already. A rough design pattern I've seen is Desktop resolutions: use layout in terms

I care because it's a convention. Without knowing too much about Angular 2, I know that it's got major breaking changes compared to Angular 1. Likewise, I know that a 1.15.2 should upgrade from a 1.15.1 fairly trivially, whereas

This is true. Despite the number of choices, what Amazon has going for it is that I'm a repeat visitor and their pricing plan is consistent for movies. I've long ago decided what I want. That might change as I, say, upgrade from
