Miami PD is one of the most corrupt departments in FL. My wife was harassed and ticketed by a fat cop who got out of the car smoking a cigar and stunk of alcohol with gold chains around his neck. Earlier she had pulled into a parking garage

Software requires problem solvers, deductive reasoning and logic these are higher level traits that not everyone possesses. Possibly 30% of the general population fits that mold. Out of that if even a third went into software as a trade the

That legislation should be coupled with the removal of legal liability for children by parents. It cuts both ways, if parents are unable to make choices for their children (even if they are wrong choices) then they should be absolved of all

Thats the paradox you either go one way or the other. The problem with Javascript or something that turns into Javascript in HTML is it can inevitably lead to magic variables. I don't know how many times I have went in to support anoth

When I did rotations on production support I used to introduce myself as the software janitor. At the time I was the CTO but never used the title.

Agreed, I had a designer work with me on a contract who was inqusitive. I showed him that git can undo all his mistakes without affecting the team, taught him a good JavaScript foundation, and pointed him to some good resources. In a month

If you are in the position to fund development, I have several developers that are coming off of a contract, if its a pure equity arrangement it would not be something we could entertain. My contact info is in my HN profile.

Customarily the seller pays customs which is a percent of the price IIRC, the free trade zones allow China and other countries to ship stuff in bulk to another country and stage it as well as offset the cost of customs until the time of pur

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_trade_zone China uses free trade zones extensively. This means that some items a moved in bulk to domestic staging areas, so not everything is leaving from China, I believe that there

When I was young, I was in the simulation industry in Orlando and the game industry was taking off there. Tiburon, who would become part of EA later, was snapping up the young simulation talent, in the area and I had an offer to move over.

React usually comes with the connotation of using Flux as your data, state and control mechanism (we use ALT as our implementation) and then usually the NPM and Browserfy ecosystem to fill in the gaps as needed with libraries. It is a valid

The fact that I can declare a scope variable in a directive and it is magically available in a controller is also another one, only once one starts to dig do they find out about the less than obvious scope controls to not allow what amounts

So this guy goes on to repeat the cycle on his new employee. Me personally, I am a fan of the golden handcuffs approach to a limited pool of talent. It allows a company to focus more on critical business efforts and less on internal profits

Honestly I think the dynamics of the movie are lost on any generation that was not in the work force at that time. In that period, outside of the valley, a good deal of people would end up working at a Innotec, at some point in their life a

Funny part is Mexico has some of the strictest gun regulations on the books, the mere possession of a pocket knife is a major crime in Mexico. And while they claim the letter of their law confers a right, the spirit all but makes guns illeg

History paints a far darker narrative than the one you tell. You are falling victim to Cognitive in which you are shortcutting that data because, the data is so nebulous you are only looking at your experience as the whole set instead of a

Yes agreed don't read my narrative as a cart blanche cover over Indian atrocities, there are a steady stream of raped white woman and dead pioneers in their wake as well. Their savagery gained them the nickname as well as gave Sherman

If you are in the valley you are in an echo chamber. In the rest of the US the developer workforce is aging. I am 40 and as such we where the first wave of developers building the internet. We have aged with the career and you still see us

Don't do it on a Friday, mid week is best. Friday is the worst, that being said get it over ASAP and give them as much warning as possible to give them time to land on their feet. I agree with Steven cut more than you have to, a second

The reality is that most really good shops want employees because they know the value of long term engagements with Software dev talent. My experience is most of my freelancing work has come from corporate systems, it's not glamorous w

It is localized, the work force is aging and the population is not growing at a rate to replace those aging out. For the most part I have seen the ration of young faces to old ones lessen. It seems my generation 40 is really the generation

This is what I was thinking well staffed and funded projects have a high rate of failure, bootstrapped and underfunded projects have an even higher rate of failure. The odds are that project will never hit the market in the first place.

One of the biggest changes is the dissemination of information about programming. Ask any developer from the 80's or 90's about the trip to Borders or Barns & Nobels and you will see a smile of nostalgia cross their face. Book

When I started tinkering with microcontroller, I looked at a lot of the projects like Arduino. In the end, I decided to just get some PIC chips and a breadboard and learn it from the ground up. One of the reasons that I did so was because I
