Well, not really but I really like where I live so I don't consider moving.

All I know is my mortgage is $1,800 a month and to rent my place now is at least $6K/month. I love knowing that my monthly payment can't go up.

Having coded in Java for 15 years and Go for five, I can say that Go is clearly the better language for most tasks.

Scala definitely had some missteps but its much nicer to program in than Java and simpler as well. I mainly program in Go these days but I could imagine explaining the benefits of Scala over Go to my coworkers. It would be embarrassing tryi

Java is becoming a poorly implemented Scala.

"The US has around 16,000 golf courses, and collectively they use about a billion gallons of water a day, or around 0.3% of total US water use." I say that's a darn good use of water. Fore!

I'm spending about a grand to have a sensor in my golf door handle fixed because the car beeps for about 10 seconds every time it passes 10mph. Thinking of buying a car at least 15 years old so I can experience the lack of electronics

Maybe way back in the .com days but its a terrible decision financially now.

I worked for a wealth management company. The money was held at the financial institution's accounts. We just calculated when to re-balance the portfolios and executed the trades on the customer's behalf. Not sure if that's h

"This question is increasingly central to debates about the future of work" Nope. The only question my company is asking is how to get more efficiencies from AI so that they don't have to hire so many people.

Part of the problem is that the barrier to entry is really low now. In the old days, you had to be relatively talented on your instrument, hone your skills for years playing clubs to gather an audience, and then a record label would finally

Innervisions is hardly a forgotten record. To claim its better than Dark Side of the Moon is totally subjective and I would argue that its not. Dark Side works as an album while Innervisions feels like a collection of songs. Also, "Vis

isn't the stock market risk free over a 30 year span? Maybe with the exception of the depression.

pretty big logic leap you made there. I didn't say understanding the domain was the only requirement. But certainly not understanding it will cause you to fail.

"these require deep understanding of the domain, the codebase, and good software engineering principles" Most of this AI can figure out eventually, except maybe the domain. But essentially software engineering will look a lot like

I didn't say its all false but I also noticed that you didn't post a single link to the overwhelming and well-documented evidence. Since most of the people I work with are Indian, I guess you're suggesting that Indians are ra

Not to argue the point, but in the article, he can't get the snare sound right so he needed to revert to a sample. I think you're underestimating the difficulty of recreating sounds. It would be impossible for instance, to recreat

I don't know. I think it would be pretty difficult to reproduce say the Amen Break. You would have to be a great drummer and be able to reproduce that particular sound it has.

Listening to the break down of the tracks, they barely takes any music playing ability so I imagine they could have easily made them from scratch instead of using samples.

Suburbia houses are usually right next to each other. Densely populated cities stack housing so you have to go down to get out. I've found that its much easier to meeting people in single family homes than five level flats. In any case
