My religion is Phish. It's a massive cathartic ceremony, and with the correct chemicals, I hear the angels. I get what they're saying. It's dumb to restrict spirituality and even "religion" to certain institutions.

I don't think you're facing what they're facing. Sounds like you make quite a bit more than the people profiled in this article.

I still think this misses the point that the Japanese have a shared respect and responsibility to each other and to their space that we don't instill in American culture at all. In fact, we mock their customs more often than adopt the

In Japan, the culture of safety, trust, and respect is greater than anything we ever had here. You need only take one subway trip through Tokyo to realize this.

It's not false machismo. I'm stuck a lot. I just don't have any expectations that it's someone else's fault.

Hard to make, not use. It is because it is. Maybe I should have said "It's not supposed to be easy"

Benatar says the bad outweighs the good for everyone. If you're refuting his first principle, are you really even talking about the same issue?

Aren't S3 defaults entirely private? It's pretty obvious what you're doing when you make a bucket public.

This is sensationalized, fear-based reporting. Classic case of someone publishing a strong opinion about something they don't understand. Unless she is trying to imply that security issues are inevitable, session replay tools are used

Sometimes you don't care what the importing module names your thing, and it's the only thing your module does. Think of a super simple React component... I'm `export default function(props) { ... }`ing that every time. Is tha

I've been a team lead and never had the "authority" to tell someone exactly how to write their code. I also would consider "convince me" a very appropriate response. If I fail to convince, I don't get what I wa

How much do you trust the investor? This sounds like an obvious "nooope" to me. If your dream is to own a company, this will be unsatisfying.
