Full stack to me is more about ownership and responsibility than pure expertise. He's the guy that can literally carry the entire thing on his back if he has to. Technically speaking, usually because he's the one that created it,

Jeez if my guys didnt learn on the job they’d know only the wrong things. If anything, lol... Surely what they learnt at bootcamp is less than worthless. :)

It's an attempt to nullify the speaker rather than responding to the statement. It's become quite the thing these days. No I am not a paid shill, try again,

You guys pre-suppose the poor people in this town can't make up their own minds and are somehow oblivious to whats really happening. I guarantee each one of you that your opinion would be different if you lived in this town and worked

If you live in that town and work for Disney you probably think it's working just fine.

I think municipalities should be free to make the best deal they can with large employers like this. Chips fall where they may. They are all elected officials so therefore directly accountable. Seems like the system is working just fine her

There's portability+density issue with renewable or even free electric. You cant run planes, trains, ships, heavy industry, heavy haulers, etc om battery. And thats where the lions share of fossil is burnt.

This goes back to the days when people drank much more, at work, at lunch, etc... In a drinking culture, nodding off at your desk is a very very bad thing because it means you can't handle your liquor and this just could not be tolerat

How is the file system performance going with this? The latest release version runs Rails worse than shared folders on VMWare which is slow in bad way. Running MySQL on top of it might "work" but is it fast?

Try 'I am a born in America citizen on american soil, I want to talk to my lawyer, no i'm not giving you my password. No I won't tell you why.'

Same logic used in the Salem witch trials. You ever wonder why The Right to Be Silent is the first right mentioned in Miranda? Our entire criminal justice system is rooted is this concept. You have to be proven guilty and the state has to p

It's a great story because it's honest. Nothing in life is free and growth is messy and painful. You could have spent a lifetime at any steady gig and never seen anywhere near what you have seen in the past year. The good stuff is

I have yet to meet a recruiter that wasn't desperate for demonstrated talent. Every corporate shop i've seen has older programmers doing the real work and younger programmers paying the tech debt and building UI. I think most of t

Be very careful to properly disclose your outside interests when working with startups. One simple email up front can save you a lot of pain and heartache on pay day.

The only reason they announced it was to avoid being guilty of an actual crime after being acquired and not announcing it before hand.

Building from scratch since the early 80s. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that i've never really looked at my industry as a young man's sport. Young and dumb get chewed up and spit out on the first funding down-tu

Imagine a world where your given 5 million dollars and a business model; the only real guard rail being 'don't walk us off a cliff...'. It's not fun and games anymore is it? A huge percentage of the code I write has noth

Remember that people with always push back when you attempt to change the status quo. First drop the expectation that you'll be encouraged and supported when you finally grow up and make the change. Just do it, and stop explaining why

I rented in Milbrae because it was as far as I could get from SF, still be on the peninsula, and still have access to Bart. Every useful part of SF has a Bart stop nearby. Perfect!

I think this has more to do with how we operate at high speed. I delegate my memory to list apps and simple text notes. Since I did not have to store the information for any length of time in my head it's hard to recall that informatio

Divide the loss by the gain and call it cost of doing business. Do what you have to do and move on. Maybe next time don't advertise your intentions before getting paid? What concerns me the most is that you just had to mention access t

The car should protect it's occupants at all cost because that would be the normal reaction of someone driving the car themselves. In that case the car has been pre-programmed not to make a choice. When faced with a split second decisi

I've seen brilliant people who can't deliver and mediocre players that get shit done day in and day out. Software is built upon hard work and compromise; it's more of a contact sport than it is a craft. Despite what people wi

The latency issue is now entirely solved in the DK2 so that's now a non-issue. I had it working on a 7950 even. The 980s and the Titan allow for real-time down sampling to eliminate all judder and help with the SDE.

I've been programming professionally since 1986 when I had a 70+ year old mentor writing accounting and plant control systems in TurboDOS. Now I code AND design large complex systems using either .NET or Rails. I don't send CV&#x2

It's not really the workload but the brain overload. Right now I have a paying gig which I try to work on but not think about maybe a 3rd of the time. The rest of my time and mental energy goes into my one startup. I had a couple side start
