In short: the corporate wining-and-dining culture we like to shun as corporate-fat-cat-ism otherwise? Obviously very practical and even hackers want to be wined and dined...

Did you even read what I wrote? Your comment is irrelevant because you obviously did not understand my point: that git is not a "simply better" substitute for svn as a lot of people seem to think. There are situations where svn is the right

Spot on, excellent points and I could not help but wonder about the article... most people would consider "apache" to be synonymous for the httpd and not the ASF, so the headline is clearly fishing. Then, OP argues ASF's processes are broke

An interesting detail to add: at least one mental health expert has told me that meditating on a regular basis can be a very powerful tool for fighting depressions and other psychological issues; the number of patients suffering from those

You are forgetting the most important part here: memory! Since you are getting pleasure from those songs, it is only fair to make it impossible for you to just remember a song and hear it in your head over and over again without actually pa

While IPSec would solve the technical problem using it would make blocking even easier unfortunately.

I also posted this as a comment to his blog - needless to say it was NOT published. Obviously he doesn't like any negative PR or critical voices on there that might make him look bad and not-1%-y.

Oh heavens no, I don't even aspire to match half of the social and manipulative skills women seem to be so born with. One thing I think I have figured out is weighing actions vs. words. And the real gold-diggers usually reveal themselves ra

This is an interesting question... I would say yes it is possible, there can surely be other motivators why you might work very hard. In this case, I just got the feeling from reading his posts that OP has a very VERY strong bias towards co

Honestly, consider taking (behavior) therapy if any of this toxic shame is left inside of you now! Work through this. Oh and, chances are you are a hacker with a good amount of money at your disposal. Nothing wrong with making up for lost e
