I am a big fan of raccoons as well. I think they are hilarious. They are just smart enough to seem stupid if that makes any sense.

I am amazed that they managed to get the engines on the British Airways flight running again

Wow, wouldn't want valuable corporate secrets such as your particular form of Agile leaking to outside sources. How devastating.

Ha! If I worked at IBM they would never catch me. My flash drive is disguised as a tiny sports car! Foolproof! Anyways, did IBM have a big leak recently or something? This seems rather draconian to have been put into place without some fair

I you are willing to be blacklisted than more power to you. I wouldn't want to force that on someone.

I spent a summer in Newfoundland a while back. Really wonderful place. I would not want to be there during the winter though.

Hahahahahahaha! Making fun of people because of where they were born is so funny!

Good way to loose your job very quickly. I don't think we should have to rely on somebody sacrificing themselves to make a difference.

What kind of tractor?

All of my raspberry pi's are completely silent. On a more serious note, would it be possible to achieve said silence without too much compromise by some variant of water cooling, with a good sized reservoir? And use the heat to drive c

I was kind of surprised by this. I would have though that speaking decent English would be a fairly valuable skill for Chinese companies that operate outside of China.

I have heard this before, but it doesn't explain why it was ever released without features such as, I don't know, WORKING CONVERSATION HISTORY!

I can not agree with you more. Skype for business has is an unmitigated disaster of a piece of software and whatever team is in charge of it needs to be fired or relocated so that Microsoft can start over on it. Skype for business is so ins

Super common where I live in the US as well. Lots of wood screws use them, but they show up in pretty much every fastener application.

Say what you like about Amazon, but you must admit that they are a very shrewd company. Provide fantastic customer service to the consumers, and almost none at all to the sellers. Brilliant.

The iPhone did no "outrun" them. They weren't even in the same race. When the iPhone came out Google did a massive overhaul of android in order to emulate the iPhone. Prior to that android was meant to look like blackberry.

Right, but I am not worried (at the moment) that the HomePod will be used to collect my private information to be sold later on. I think this is false equivalence. How is the HomePod any different from connecting my iphone to a speaker?

I don't mourn the loss of Jobs as an inventor. I mourn the loss of Jobs as a person who could recognize great ideas for what they were. I hear some version of "He didn't actually invent it" over and over again, and I thi

I occasionally loose sleep, wondering what products were lost due to Jobs' early death. Edit: Ok, fine. I loose sleep wondering what ideas were out there that languished because Jobs wasn't around to see their potential and capita

It is kind of amazing how much the landscape has changed. I have always used Apple computers and phones, and I used to view Apple as a vaguely sinister company, but one that produced the best products. It is very weird to me that they are n

Good idea. I should preemptively murder anyone who might cause me harm. I know I am being ridiculous, but you get my point. Evidence based decisions and all that.

I think that you are being unfair. There will always be "shackles". Sometimes changing your perspective is more valuable than changing your situation.

Did you set out with the goal of early retirement? Or were you just relatively frugal, and at some point realized it was possible? It seems like you owned a house at age 24 which is pretty unusual.

I guess that is fair. But as someone who works in software, the obligation to work has never loomed over me, because I always have extra money, and I know that I can quit my job and find a new one if I want. So I don't understand fixat

Ok, let me make sure I understand. The goal is to live extremely frugally while you work so that you can retire very early and continue to live extremely frugally? Why? I don't hate working, and it allows me to fund my hobbies. If I wa

Ditto. Not only that, but when working with a large codebase, design decisions that seem unfathomable at first glance often turn out to be reasonable or necessary once you understand the code and its use cases.

Take comfort in the knowledge that you are not alone. My mother often spent an hour or more just trying to get me to admit that I even had homework.
