if the verbosity of javabeans bothers you, you can just use the lombok compiler extension to get similar concepts to what Go provides.

Fantastic point. These people were focused on getting a job, any job, so that when the 2 year period was over, they could survive. Which of course is a good thing, but really won't produce what the idealistic goals of basic income are.

Curious, does javascript, the language itself, cause this rate of change (whether you see it as a good thing, or as a bad thing), over server side languages, java etc.

You could of course ask the Photon how long it takes, and it will tell you another story. He thinks it's instantaneous, so why bother needing to go faster.

"The Anglo-Saxon lyft means weak or broken" poor Lyft. yes, i agree it's odd that that was what i took out of the article.

Given the general snarkyness of the author towards 'intellectuals' in his words, i tend to write off his opinions whether there is validity or not. I'm quite sure there are problems with IQ tests. I'm also sure that they

That would seem to raise serious questions about the veracity of anything biblical, then. So if you discounted any evidence in the bible, based on the supposed dubiousness of other things there, what's left to build a case on.

If you were a maximally powerful being and wanted to explain important concepts to all mankind, would you use such incredibly nuanced wording to do that (if you are even right)? That seems like a horribly terrible plan and implementation.

You'd think that having a hoard of dead people raising up at the same time as Jesus's ressurection and roaming through the streets of Jerusalem would have made 'secular news'. What happen to those people? Did they just c

"that a particle can appear to be in two places at once" i'm pretty sure that's not what quantum mechanics says.

Maybe -- but the index is ridiculously useful. being able to commit some of your changes is part of what makes git so much more useful than something like mercurial. To be honest you may have a complaint for 2 and 3, but i'm not sure w

i don't know your reports, of course, so could be wrong. But i'm guessing your reports, aren't all that interested with a relationship with you. They are obligated to do some amount of kissing up, are spending the time wonder

the 1 on 1 IS the disruption.

by mbfg 8y ago
completely agree. 1 on 1s in my experience (25 years with lots of managers) is they have no value for me.

by mbfg 8y ago
do reports, in general, want 1 on 1s? i certainly don't. They hold no value to me. They are largely constructed to inform managers as to what's going on, which is something I already know.

The cavendish isn't really that good of a banana, among all the banana species, so no one should shed a tear if it's supplanted with a different species. Blue Java Bananas are yummy. (altho probably not destined to be the replacem

I see this response got down voted, but no one has given evidence to it mistakes. Compare America to most of the other 'modern' countries. Look at the metrics: Poverty, Health care, Social values, Life expectancy, Jailing practice

What a perfect society looks like is of course an incredibly hard question to answer. But not knowing the exact ideals does not discount our ability to recognize a bad state. We can move in a better direction, and yes, it's possible th

My statement still applies. The 1% owns more than the rest of society. That is a failed state.

The line is so long and non moving not because of these supposed line cutters, but because the people at the front of the line managing it are so slow and stingy processing the people in the line.

Exactly. Now remove the restriction that Earth #2 is active with life at the same time we are. Instead intelligent life existed 10 billion years ago. Now we've got a tiny band of space 10 billion light years away where that planet has

Let's cheat. Let's say that there's another Earth out there with human beings on it. Let's say they've been producing electrical noise for 200 years like us. Where would planet Earth #2 have to be in order for us to
