What if you build "social capital" in a place where most people rent... then situation changes and most of your social contacts move away, because it's no more economically feasible to live there? What happens to your social

Yeah, like the landlord won't work with you for a little longer in a global crash? They will be very eager to start looking for new tenants? Of course, if your job is remote, a local crash won't make you lose your job, but if it&#

In other news, iPhone is so overpriced and we are all so dumb to buy it, that they are now wondering what to do with the money. Also, the other phone companies are so pathetic/evil that they can't compete even with this... Full di

Tell me about it. I am an Erlang programmer and I am currently learning OCaml... It's extremely hard to find OCaml topics, as Google bombards me with Erlang results. This certainly was not like this 10 years ago.

Off-topic: can someone explain what is it that is so great about Medium, so that Steve finds it necessary to praise them? To me (as a reader) it's just a blog engine with horrible user experience. Of course, with time I have come to ac

They mostly have their own version of it, just developed by Chinese companies and controlled by the government. From what I have seen, it's quite on par with Google Play Services.
