Hey! Miirc here! I really have to get my plant back up and running. Plant, RIP. You've done a great job with the community. Thanks for all you do!

I love Arcosanti. That's where I go when I need to get away for a coding breakthrough. I wish I could live there and help build it, but my family would never agree to move there with me.

Which means that it's up to us to make these long term institutions somehow.

As an IBM employee in the Z division, I never take enough advantage of this. I encourage everyone to do this (including myself).

I'd be very interested in this. There's a lot of decentralized tech that uses nodejs modules which are hard to wrap up in a GUI without Electron. I greatly dislike the resource waste of Electron and have been actively looking for

It's pointing out the mindshare and impact that Chrome has.

When my friends ask me about rust I tell them it's hard as fuck, but worth it: better to set difficult expectations and have them conquer those, than the opposite happen and they give up thinking they are smart enough.

I find visual studio code the easiest to get up and running. It's just a crate (that arguably should be installed by the extension) and an extension. That said, it sounds like they know this needs to be improved.

One thing I can think of is trying to avoid caching.

40 here and not seeing a flagging salary or problem with work. I just get calls from larger companies than I did when I was younger. Stay away from the startups, Keep your skills up to date, drop the complaining habit if you have it and fin

That's practically died. Startups that come out now are mainly seeking luxury crowds or user attrition from facebook/whatsapp/etc. We are innovation saturated with the few areas left to innovate taking more time and funding t

It's the Rails job market driving this change, not hotness.

Currencies always go up or down based on trust in the currency's backer; in their ability to perform. Thus as the US Dollar (USD) went up against the British Pound Sterling (BPS) when Brexit was declared the course to go, the USD has f

Regarding Go and package management, I'd say that Go doesn't have that issue yet because there really is no package management outside of using mercurial or got repositories. They are working on vendorizing those in a one way fash

It is a cool concept. However, what it doesn't seem to cover, and what would fix the issue you are speaking about, is coding for a set of images. Given a set of wireframes, with expected post effect and interactivity hints interleaved,

How many people are wondering how many nasa research labs there are now and how to find them?

Unfortunately redshift doesn't work with Wayland or Mir.

I've spent most of my career (20+ years) working on or with startups. I loved that environment when it came to building my own startups; I loved diving in and working an insane amount of time to prove my ideas out; I loved networking i

Yeah, I'd say the majority of people I deal with have been there for 5+ years. The company promotes from within, so a lot of the vets are in some form of management or research by now. That was one clue that this was the company I want

When I was young, I wanted to stay away from the old large companies. When I crossed the 35 year threshold, they became the only one's I wanted to work for: every passing year made that desire stronger. Almost 40 now and finally workin

I ran a bootstrapped ISP much the same way. I ran into the static issue as well did a few things to fix it. Ran a better ground on the roof. Isolated the tower from the roof surface with wood (that was done during tower erection). Lastly, I

It is a threat to our system, and the fallout of our system is a threat to our life, but the AI aren't intentionally threatening us; our lack of foresight and stubborn desire to live under a wage earning system will eventually hurt us

In order to keep this from being swept under the rug, I can say that I highly empathize with you. I will also say that this issue has improved greatly. When I used to hang out in #gonuts it used to be worse. I blame this on the egos and the
