   This is super awesome, and this is the kind of thing that makes me long for an early retirement where I can tweak how I live.

   Or afford to? The way most software is built today makes me sad.

   This is where I am at with my thinking. Minimum wage creates an oversized leadership/management problem.

   Because most employees assume money is a given, and they align with a mission instead. It is also not socially acceptable to be in something just for the money unless it is wall street.

   It is daunting, but getting started is actually straight forward. For instance, you could start by simply writing a domain language that translates your grammar via a tool like ANTLR or simply raw abstract syntax trees to C++. It gets hard

   Awesome, I love to see new programming languages in action. This is great. Some thoughts. First, ignore negativity and focus on getting constructive feedback. One of my tiny regrets is that I abandoned one of my projects due partially to ne

   It is kind of annoying, but I have a different viewpoint for why code is actually a small part. For me, I could write all the code that my entire team produces, but I am outmatched in the eyes and minds to turn things on operationally. That

   I honestly don't know, and I am considering inventing a platform so that I can express how I get feedback. I am definitely interested in feedback, but I also want to create an income stream from it.

   True, but that doesn't mean the behaviors are not mutually exclusive. For instance, there is a time in your life before you know how to code and there is a time where you think you know how to code and then have to interview. I call th

    I am planning to write a site that helps people understand the career beyond the code. I have five sections planned. 1. Not Yet Engineer 2. Junior Engineer 3. Practitioner Engineer 4. Senior Engineer 5. Principal Engineer I intend to index

    Simple, operate in the appropriate mathematical ring. Just because there is overflow doesn't mean it failed.

    This is strange to me and basically says the engineers are not allowed to compete...

    Are we going to play empathy Olympics? The problem is that you can't decouple commodity needs from the market because life is suffering.

    That could be a libertarian win because maybe then the government couldn't function.

    So, I think the author meant that a real number is actually a sequence of approximations towards an ideal. So, 0.5 has infinite sequences like 5, 3, 2, 1, 3/4, 1/4, 3/5, 2/5, 1/2

    That's incorrect, he is expressing what he is able to manage. Will this limit him? Or not? That is the question.

    Gold can be used in technology and teeth, so it has value. I think this is what he meant.

    This is really cool, and I did something very similar (more hackish) ten years ago. This is a very powerful technique, and I wish the mint team the best. The downside is really a combination of building a community and educating people abou

    This is a good article that challenges what I have heard. An interesting pondering is whether or not the adoption of new bedding makes this problematic.

    If you work in a big tech tech company and let the RSUs actually vest with a bit if financial frugality and saving, then you could. This is, of course, assuming that you don't intent to stay in an area of high cost of living.

    Should it? Sure, it detracts from the organizations mission. It's counter productive. However, if you eat all your meals at campus, then where else express politics? I think this is more about companies taking over too much of life and

    I think this and many of the comments illustrates part of the gap. If you are in the big tech companies doing infrastructure work (and to some degree, product work), then you need a very firm grasp of the basics because you will have to rev

    I used to work at Amazon as an engineer, and it is all about making meetings effective. Writing is an effective tool to thinking effectively. Six pages is actually about keeping things brief and to the point, and many people will cheat at m

    I took that reference more to be a slant that men are fairly predictable and companies exploit the sausage fest that is the IT/tech world.
