OK... he's been saying that it would be easy to attack our electrical infrastructure which is exposed and unguarded all over the place. I can't add anything that isn't in the article, besides pointing out that we've mor

I read it. I thought it was a blog post and not part of their guide; so I can take back the timeliness/repetitive part of my complaint. I'm not complaining that it's feeding the holy war, just pointing out that it is one. M

I love the "understand how it works before you use it" angle; this is how I was taught in school and it's how I practice. I had to build (simulated) CPUs and RAM out of transistors, an assembler and eventually compiler to run

I force push master when I know it's safe. If you aren't confident, don't do it. Don't piss off your coworkers. But this dogma is ridiculous.

This article has been written a million times already. It's another holy war. Vim, spaces, rebase. The sad part is that IMO merge people are on that side because they are afraid of rebase or don't understand it.

My dad has been pointing this out for 20 years. He'd be pissed if I didn't comment here.

Yes. And the "superstition" and archaic language he is complaining about in his abstract are actually thousands of years of collective wisdom which has helped many musicians to create many widely acclaimed pieces of music in ever

The problem in my experience is that people will emotionally defend their style of carrot boiling, to the point that they loudly and forcefully attempt to convince me that carrots come out of the ground pre-boiled, or that if I try to cook

I, for one, thought SimAnt was one of the most fun games of my childhood. And SimTower... I have a coding interview modeled after it.

Yep. Posted before finishing the article. Makes sense that there'd be overlap between the two online communities. Wonder how many other online delusion reinforcement communities there are... I'm definitely not commenting on one

If we don't develop due process for machines, they're going to be the scapegoat for everything. ...and I'm going to get away with murder.

Damn. Of course you're right. And it could all be automated, transparent to you, the cheater.

It seems like in such an open organization, and considering the problems (1%) that this is trying to address, there would be some tools for querying the wealth distribution. (There may/should be, idk; a few Googles came up empty.)

I hope this reality check cools off all the zealots. To me, this is, like, "duh!" At best, extremely risky to spend your money on; at worst, obviously stupid.

It's that "on and off" that killed you. Dig in, practice, get better, and it will become much less of a problem. Set your goal "I will get better at debugging" and not "I will immediately be a pro".

I think you're missing the point if you want this. Boot once, leave running, swap in new code, interact. A clj process (like most lisps) is alive and dynamic in more ways than you might be used to. There's no need to be constantl

You'll have to talk to the/a Simulator. Hopefully they've simulated a nice afterlife for us.

This is amazing. I quit a job at a company that did many stupid things, one of which was insist that their home rolled CSS framework did not suck. Said framework was, in all seriousness, exactly this but with shortened, cryptic names. Nig

Have to point out: we also have legitimately terrible developers using Impostor Syndrome as a political tool to keep their jobs and write whiny blog posts. Everyone should have a healthy way of dealing with feeling inadequate, besides whini

Wait... big difference between Googling, even a lot; and copying code. If you mindlessly copy code and it works, even once, without really understanding (e.g. could you teach the pattern/trick/concept/etc to a teammate?) yo
