"Fuck yes or no" lets me see the answer. Nice job using your position to help your name get some bubble. Everything cool is happening outside of silly con valley at this point.

Lao Tzu says that in preparing a defense you welcome an enemy. If we create from our thought and intent, why would we take steps? This thinking instantly puts most people into fear mode, but when you live it and nothing happens fear totally

I eat popcorn watching the double-think these days. Laws simply weren't designed for perfect enforcement. We need a new legal framework that can handle omnipresence.

Git is the precursor to "block chain" in utility. I was unaware of this cottage industry before now :)

Can you (or anyone reading) elaborate on details of how you did it? I'm surgically shrinking it and it's caused a good amount of turbulence... removing without communicating, and communicating removal are both difficult. The latte

Thanks for this term, this is the model I'm using for a Vodcast for the past month or so... POSSE to RasPi for recording and syndication, serve edge-cache optimized segmented video content from CDN, RTMP to all the other networks. I&#x

Good. I do this at my personal parties, I have a phone bowl by the door. Few arguments are solved by Google, and creative things happen. Social Media is definitely at the point where TV was in around 2012. There were the early 'adopter

Me too. Kinda envy GP, I had that for 4 months before the machine decided I was broken and ejected me. Now I only have energy between ShittySmallCo jobs because of the time and mind games they play for that moolah. Livin' the dream!

For an out there perspective, I am a big fan of fixed price contracts. I know what I can do and what it's worth. Can't speak for others but I want to share because I don't see people talk about it. A product can be dozens of

I've been doimg this for 4 years and it's great. I've not had a successful job in 4 years. It's easy to make plausible complaints about the relaxed uber productive guy who works like 8 hours a day and eats away from his

Cooperative coworkers who still compete in the spirit if play (Lao Tzu). HR and the low trust/greed driven SV economy make it hard in the bay area, but other cities like Denver and Minneapolis are where I've met best friends who a

Why is it scary? Rejection from some hypothetical group that obviously doesn't share your values? Nobody wants to close doors, but that mindset closes the only worthwhile doors anyway. Not saying make a priority, but consider where tha

I'm so glad you put that </s> at the end. I definitely see them jumping to make those inroads. It's not hard to self operate this stuff now that distributed computing is cheaper (eg. $50 raspi 2018 = 10+ $2000 boxes 199

Sounds like incentive to regulate then. That they presently have the data and it's private is worse than it being totally public. If it's acted on now it'll just be by a better connected actor against somebody unaware they ca

One of my only favorite movie lines is from Cape Fear, where a redneck says that if someone mispronounces a fancy word it just means they've not been able to discuss what they've learned yet. My Vice Principal in HS told me to fli

Knowing that cops will arrest on regular traffic stops if it's too cold for a breathalyzer, creating an arrest record and thus creating challenges to employment etc, makes this all the more gruesome to learn about.

I def prefer the quiet. Avid music fan, ears blown from 2 decades of festivals, clubs, and chonic headphoning. Certain beats on the stereo are good but I won't do headphones anymore. Final problem with headphones in office is political

There is a Linux scheduler option for cpuset accessible via cgroups iirc, that pins execution to a set of cores. I've not used it.

Watch Netflix. :) kidding, I go with actions are louder than words. Make something, send it into the world. The thing need only attract the people you wanna talk to (ie. get money from or proxies).

It's not just here in the US, I've had similar culture shock moving from Minneapolis to San Francisco. I've had endless pain at work trying to communicate an idea quickly enough and not being able to have conversations that f

Good! Competition is good. JVM was just-okay until .NET came along and forced it to become great. I have my own car still because I don't like getting in strange cars all the time. Most of time time it's okay, sometimes I am with

Getting back to it myself. Ultimately my past successful works have have never been intended to be. And I enjoy them still, upon rediscovery. So not much to lose except the feeling of being redundant. It's good to stay current but also

Glad this is a thing. Waiting to see feedback, might dabble a little. But I have family who would be open to just about any suggestion (midwest+sw US). Lots of tight knit support groups that prevent the younger ones from relocating unless t

I posted on FB while working on my degree and got a 5 year memory about it recently. I visualized the miners turning the polar bears black, and I was a good liberal who turned off my lights. Ethics would win. "It was a cool prototype&q

I keep getting the calendar used against me. I'm super human by all honest measures, but management without fail starts giving me guff about going to the gym and having lunches away from my desk. I can venture into justifying that I do

I've just started using Thunderbird again this last year, comforted by it. It's definitely better than it used to be. The survey is a joke, I don't trust product management/design if they're asking people to donate

Literate commit messages. The tool TRAC did a great job of surfacing project activity into timelines and exposing views like that. It's possible with GH but I'm usually the only one on projects to write commit messages that aren&#

There are a couple of free plugins to make WP sites static, using various methods. So yes, use a plugin and you can get an HTML copy of your WP site with caveats that should make sense, and you can then host the html anywhere... there are 2

Life is full of these catch 22s and we've cultivated a society where being offended gets more utility than actally getting helped in some cases. People don't always know why they act, but coi bono examinations show that outrage wi
