Just wanted to mention that in previous posts Pieter mentioned that donations (he was not soliciting them) for his kids and family could be sent via PayPal to ph@imatix.com . I did not know him personally so I cannot speak for his situation

With modern computers the combustion process can be controlled to such a degree that this is a non-issue, but with that said, see my post above on water methanol mixture, incomplete combustion can be solved by the addition of methanol. As w

The confusion was on my part, I used release of oxygen but it is probably better explained as intake of oxygen, the cooling effect of the water leads to a higher air density in the mix of atomized air. The water is not releasing more oxygen

The process is actually more efficient with a 50/50 mix of water and methanol. When the water reaches threshold there is additional release of oxygen which at temperature can be consumed by the combustion of methanol, thus reducing ove

I know. I hate it when people learn stuff writing free libraries to support new technologies and then release upgrades informed by what they've learned. I think there is some responsibility incumbent on the person implementing the li

This is where automation and proper process management come into play and sadly this is where many companies fall down. It's not that development productivity cannot be tracked it is that management generally does not understand the pr

I switched from SourceTree to GitKraken, I don't know all the internal issues of what transpired at Atlasian on the SourceTree team, but to me it's just not the same product that the old Mac app was when they where independent. I

It actually has nothing to do with 4WD or AWD, the article is poorly written and confuses several terms. At the surface 4WD is manually selected and AWD is 4WD all the time. Thats it they are the same thing, it's just 4WD means you opt

To be fair we (FL) have had a horrible track record with mental health care for the better part of 5 decades. While I am no fan of Scott and his corruption the state of mental health care in FL has been on a slow roll downhill for a long ti

I actually went on an interview once in which they asked for my last pay stub as proof of income. I declined and they said they would have to pass on me. A good portion of my previous income was equity. Granted the equity did not pan out bu

I have been in this business for 20 years and hired a lot of good developers over the years and only one bad one. The bad one was a personality defect and not an ability defect. If you need a whiteboard or tests, to tell they are a professi

I agree with the consensus that you need a lawyer to navigate you thru this, but if you fire them without their being made aware of their actions constituting harassment you are liable. Further if you do not conduct an investigation that in

So you propose violating a birthright, the 4th amendment and and the 5th because you don't like this guy. Your statement is a glaring example of what is wrong with the US. Everyone is willing to look the other way so long as the violat

The sad part is the authors example is easily avoidable and does not cost more to avoid. The fact that a developer was making manual changes in a production environment points to bad process and lack of knowledge of a better way. In every e

As one of the few left of my peers that still develops I would say that it is a milestone. There is a lot of burn out and churn along the way. I knew guys that left software dev to become a worm farmer. Most take the elevator up to manageme

I am pretty much ground zero of where they want to release them down here in the FL Keys and I am all for it. The amount of chemicals they pump out in the summer months is enough to sway me towards the belief that it can not be much if any

The lack of a firearm is not going to deter the intent it will just change the execution of the intent (not that I am insinuating that you are arguing for it). What you see reduced in firearm related suicides will most assuredly be followed

I knew it was a bubble when they where doing 2 week Flash bootcamps (the big front end tech at the time) and the people coming out of them where commanding 90-100k with no experience. I will say the latest front end coding boot camps are lo

Agreed I believe the performance perception is an outgrowth of following on the tail of Angular which was a significant step back in performance from the frameworks and toolkits that proceeded it. Prototype, Dojo, YUI, jQuery et. al. did no

I will admit I am not up on block chain tech or the process it uses, but it does seem like a lot of wasted resources to just compute hashes. It seems like someone could make a system where real work units count as credit in an issuing lotte
