   I was hypothesising that there may be biochemical processes that regulate your response to (society defined) morally deviant actions. I am only asking questions to point out the answer probably isn't as simple as the poster seem to bel

   Yeah, thanks. I am only trying to hint at the possibility that there are other avenues to consider than a simple "crime gene", ie. the answer is probably not as simple as the poster wants. Genetics and the human body have proven t

   Maybe a predisposition to moral deviance is biochemical?

   Iran/Iraq/Syria has an on-going conflict about dams and use of their vital river. Can't for the life of me remember the name of the river though.

   This might go terribly wrong in the case where profits from this trade goes to foreign held companies, who pay the farmers next to nothing for their work, taking advantage of the situation where people are literally dying of starvation.

   I like java. I don't love it, but it's a trusty workhorse and a nice tool with a great ecosystem.

   This. Going from java 5 to java 5+n with everything have to use the same JVM, shared on a computer was a nightmare in my large organization.

   The costs of healthcare in the US seem ridiculous to me, but the treatment given also seem better (given you can pay the exorbitant prices). On a side note, over treatment seem a real threat.

    At pro level, much of the game is about what information you can gain, and about choosing what to show and, more importantly, what you don't show (hide) and acting on non-triggers. An example of a non-trigger is knowing that if I haven

    Their website is amazing compared to train or bus tickets, and even most airlines.

    To add to this, this is very much related to their schedule of keeping the aircraft in the air 3 hours per day more than other airlines. If they get off schedule, they will have to drop flights or rent an aircraft and skip a flight to catch

    I've worked with two french (really great guys!) that shared the same sentiment. 9-5 at all cost, looking busy was adamant compared to completing actual work. 2 hour lunches... They would probably never work in their home country again

    Yeah, but coding in a tie every day when there are options is a tough sell for me..

    I also noticed that after military service. In the service, I had two uniforms that were exactly the same that I wore every day. At first I hated the uniform, but after I finished, I realized how convenient it is to not ever have to think a

    I recently changed jobs, and most I realized companies are atrocious at hiring. I came from a bigger company that invests heavily in hiring. They spend tons of cash and employee time in activities to spur hiring, and it's the only plac

    Funnily enough this is how athletes work. Most athletes start with a 2-3 hour session, then eat, ideally nap, and then a second 1-2 hour session at a low intensity.

    I am 27 and am fighting those same 24-year olds that want to code before they think. They call it refactoring, I call it fixing a design issue. The code is no longer fit to fulfill the requirements of it's task and must be altered. Of

    I am the same. I'll just fiddle around with boilerplate code or procrastinate off other tasks, but that is only semi-consciously. What I am really doing with like 60% of my focus is trying out different designs/architectures aroun

    This is my sentiment exactly. The stuff I produce in the 30-40 hour segment is significantly worse than the first 30. Also, meetings/helping out is perfectly fine, but maintaining 3-hour chunks are still crucial to productivity.

    I am a premium user of ~5 years, and I still share much the same sentiment. The lyrics being gone sucks though.

    This is actually true. When we took 100% of all able men in Norway, the got the top guys as well as the lump. Now, when it's gotten a lot easier to get out of conscription, a lot of the well people with other ambitions skip this.

    I had never heard of it either, and would have given it a try. Sounds like a decent idea.

    Heh. As a dude who makes his daily grind with java, I am convinced this is what happened with java from 2001-2010...
