We used to show the new developers on the team a query generated by Entity Framework...23 pages long. We replaced it with a well formatted query that fit on half a page. When I switched the team to Java + JPA, we started writing our own q

Disappointed - now it's everyone (Amazon, Google, Microsoft).

How do they handle the exhaust from vehicles inside the mines? I've seen cases where they only allow electric vehicles with no exhaust inside facilities like this.

Wait - I thought downvoting was for the quality of the comment and not the content? Is downvoting for when people disagree? Wouldn't that hide dissension?

A fun fact - Java is over 23 years old. Don't know if anyone would call Java "new" anymore.

No it's not worse. I think the author you replied to was stating that it's nicer to pay a flat fee and get unlimited viewing (itunes, google play, spotify, netflix, etc). Can we have that for journalism?

Agree with you AND the op. I think it's really nice to receive warnings but we also need a corresponding - don't do this, but do this instead. Developers want to follow best practices...we just need to make it easier across the

I don't get the hate. I've been a LastPass user for 5 years and it works for me most of the time. I've dabbled in 1Password, Chrome native password management, Firefox native, random Hacker News password manager recommendat

I'm just exploring an idea here but I wonder if the point is that practicing language skills (writing, reading, presenting) are as important as practicing technical skills (computer science, chemistry, math). I might argue that in the

So do we allow someone who is reckless to go 150mph and kill your family on the highway while we wait to account for all the edge cases? I think you have to assign a probability to each event and then in sum decide which ones you want to h

Agreed! Is this normal for Google? +-10% every year? The change % doesn't give us a lot of insight...these numbers in total seem much higher than the company surveys I've seen results for.

Isn't that how income taxes work? Two people pay a proportionally different amount based on their income? I think the earlier poster is stating that an equal % tax is regressive against low income folks (sales tax being the classic re

Those recruiters are incorrect - if a company doesn't want to pay for travel, they will/should do a hirevue/skype interview remotely instead. If they want you to be there in person, they'll pay for you to be there.

What ethical issues? The pigs? We kill 300k every single day in the US...that's 3.5/second.

Wait a second - that's what they did? They picked Monaco which is the code editor for VSCode. They also referenced in the article how they stuck with similar UX as Atom and VSCode as well.

Makes sense - they've been sending me emails that they are consolidating duplicate music videos for the same artist on YouTube the last few months. When they collapse Google Play Music into YouTube Music, attach music videos, and leve

Is this what Duo and Wavenet are for? They'll just have robots talking to us instead of humans. Maybe they are playing a different game.

They used to make us play this game in finance classes in high school. Everyone starts with $100k and invests however they want and you just have to keep track of it. At the end, the class compares what we earned against the class. My cla

This is exactly it. We want both. Imagine saying, do you want a $300 used iPhone or a $600 used iPhone? Pick one. You don't have enough information to make the decision but at least you know the price difference.

I would focus on the word tiny in your statement. America has to solve problems at scale. California has 3 million more people than Canada. America is a federation of 50 states. The EU is trying to become a federation of the European sta

Can you quantify in terms of percentage how you define super rich vs rich? In my mind, rich is top 20% (income of $134k or more) of society and super rich is top 5% (income of $214k or more). I'm wondering if that correlates to your t

Julian Castro is doing a seminar series at the LBJ Library that I've been attending. I think they livestream them as well on Facebook. They are definitely worth a watch and address issues of housing prices, services, gentrification,

Agreed and I will piggyback on top of it. I think we forget how reliable some of the code in this stack is. It's battle-hardened and works extremely well with lots of documentation/help. There is no sane alternative to this...th

But then you have to handle expiration and revocation synchronously. Is the extra network + cpu to unmarshall a token that much of a savings over 1 redis call on the server for the user details?
