Not sure why this was downvoted. It is my responsibility as a driver to not be distracted. If I am, I just stop at the next possibility - what's stopping me (pun intended)? I'd rather not be responsible for any accident related t

But can you really be, let's be modest, around the baseline of developer competence not knowing the difference between RAM and disk space? Hard to believe to me.

Downvoted. There's a difference between "commercial purpose" and "global player", and Microsoft crossed another line. One of many.

How can you separate Twitter the company from Twitter the results? Serious question without any snark. I don't get this argument. Oh gal, just leave a message if you downvote. I love to learn when I'm wrong, and I guess others a

I'm convinced we should simply stop lending folks using twitter to voice their opinion any credibility at all. It was cool, trendy and thoughtful to limit a response to a certain amount of characters, to compress your message. But by n

I got triggered by "Twitter knows". It doesn't. It's just a bunch of mostly toxic wannabe-in-group imbeciles. There are lots of exceptions, sure. But still. I lost count by orders of magnitude where the twitter mob-opini

To me it's actually faster and easier to read code instead. This is because i generally don't trust "what" comments - either I know the code already or I don't, and if I don't, then I don't trust the "

As much as I despise slavery I'd definitely be interested in understanding the way slavery was rationalized (if it was? if not, how did they cope with the suffering etc.?). We have to understand the principles allowing such an emotiona

What you write is true from an US point of view, and that's the point of my comment. In Europe you wouldn't ask anyone how she/he feels when you don't want to accept and reply to the response, even if it is deviating fro

Don't know why this was heavily downvoted at the time of this posting. No sources, sure, but most of it is common knowledge with a few unsourced opinioned edges - fair enough to me, and I think an interesting viewpoint. Especially the

The funny thing is a safety factor is a factor after all. Just one needs to be small enough, and the whole construction (pun intended) may collapse in the worst imaginable manner. This happened recently in Italy: https://www.bbc.

While I partially agree, I'm not sure your assessment is helpful. There's a treasure trove hidden beyond the words, I'm not sure you're assessing the depth of his writings appropriately.
