But that's unintuitive. Why can't you click the X button on the tab to close it? That's browser UI, not web page UI, so it should never be unresponsive.

No, because if you split it into two pieces, common utility functions will be called from both pieces, at which point you have to duplicate them. Splitting probably makes sense only for an infrequently used feature, like video chat in an ap

I've reported for years to EMs who didn't code, and they were just pointy-haired bosses: coming up with ways to manipulate people to make progress quicker, writing performance reviews mostly based on other people's input (why

I don't think the article is advocating that that designers can just code up some HTML and CSS as a substitute for FE devs. Specialists are necessary, but so are people who can span disciplines, like designers who can do some HTML and

Your points would be received better without the sarcasm in your opening sentence. Regarding your point that this tax will be hard to enforce, why do you think this is harder than to enforce than the cornucopia of taxes and construction rul

You haven't explained why that would happen, nor has any of the downvoters.

That's your opinion. There are people who're willing to earn less salary and more variable pay, and those people would be fine with early-stage startups and with my proposal.

That's your opinion. There are people who'll accept lower salary and higher variable pay, and for them, my suggested option is no worse than working at an early stage company in terms of risk. Actually slightly less risky, since t

You're lost in your own analogy. Big companies are going to exist, anyway, so can we make them more productive?

You're going to have big companies, anyway, so why not make them more productive? My proposal includes variable pay, so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor more than you can in today's big companies like Microsoft and Google.

Do you realise that you've argued that nobody should choose to work at an early-stage startup? Your salary is below market rate, but not when you include variable pay, in startups, and in my proposal.

I wonder how one would structure a big company to keep it more agile. Some thoughts: - Salaries would be lower, so that people coming for the money wouldn't. There's be more variable pay. This will eliminate the "who cares if

Thanks for a reasonable disagreement, unlike the other respondent to my post. I was saying that govt should perhaps not give subsidised loans to individuals (as in the Australian example) to study things like art because: - the subsidised l

I see where you're coming from, but it's good to impose the burden of proof on the person making the claim. If the person making the claim can't be bothered to dig up any supporting information, neither can others. It keeps t

I'd think taxpayer money should be spent in ways that create measurable benefit to both the individual and the economy as a whole. I'm not seeing the downside of only the rich being able to understand how Post-Impressionists like

Which doesn't provide the evidence the parent was looking for. Just because you take a variety of classes doesn't mean that they have a benefit. If they do, please give us the evidence.
