Where in sokoloff's answer did they specify that the margin went to an individual? I interpret "employer" to mean the employing company, composed of many individuals who, like sokoloff, also want stability.

Well, this design motif has been around long enough that I wouldn't necessarily call it a "recent fad". One obvious example that springs to mind is holding icons on the iOS home screen to move or delete them.

Not necessarily. Funding can be used by profitable companies to speed growth or invest in moonshot experiments as well as make up for lack of revenue. And if you don't need it, the money is cheaper; sometimes, if you're offered go

Well, maybe it would help to have some background on the name: Kubernetes is Greek for 'helsman' or 'pilot' [1]. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubernetes

I agree that the line of reasoning in the parent comment is flawed ("if Facebook is using it, then we can use it too") and that making a language decision is very much about picking the right tool for the job. However, I think the

(not the parent commenter, but..) That would be great - do you have any writing about your experience anywhere? Someone a few days ago made a comment that Haskell posts on HN frequently get many upvotes but fewer comments, and that this sym

Mostly I just read various people's blog posts and follow links (for example, I think I first found Stack on [1]). I also spend occasional time in the IRC, which can be useful but isn't a comprehensive news source by any means. I

Right now, that's truer than many would like. However, when GHC 8 (the new version of the compiler) drops in the next couple months, most of the performance tuning will involve putting a single line of code at the top of each performan

Well, via software. There have certainly been remote-controlled cars in the past.

Sure, except that Trump doesn't make a disclaimer before or after all his statements that he might be wrong to some degree.

Thanks for the link, that's fascinating read! It seems that many people who I would call "intellectually honest" end up developing speech patterns to avoid (1) speaking in absolutes; and (2) making statements of opinion artic

A great quote from the article: "The defensive writing style also encourages another sort of ugliness, which is that “avoiding saying something wrong” becomes a primary focus of the writing, rather than communicating or exploring ideas
