I wonder if this is because a few very large companies hog all the IP to themselves. In other words, only a few specialists like Proctor and Gamble really put any emphasis on this in their business. That's why they mentioned that groce

I'll bet its even rarer that you have visited Putin's Russia or talked to any of the citizens who live there, not emigrants who have left but the people who still live there and who do not want to leave.

You could always emigrate to a country that celebrates their constitution and whose president publicly states that people have a right to speak out. In Russia, to mark the 20th anniversary of the Consitution of the Russian Federation, they

Sometimes low tech is all you need. Put on a toque or beanie hat, pull down over the eyes and temples, sleep. As for waking up on time, I have a mobile phone for that.

Note that when people surveyed successful startups to find out what characteristics they shared, they discovered that most of them are started by people around your age, i.e. over 40. The Zuckerbergs of the world are outliers and people who

Classify and group your experience. Then write one resume for each category. One for software developer, one for hardware technician, one for system admin, one for entrepreneur/project manager. Then think about which resume to select f

I think that your minimum rate is too high. A lot of developers would like to branch out and get experience with new technology but with a minimum rate of $100/hr you really can only offer your most familiar language/platform. Som

I disagree. These are constructs that you should try to use more often whenever the design pattern fits what you are trying to achieve. They only seem complex when you first encounter them but after you actually learn these design patterns,

Judging by the phone numbers, I would say that this is likely to be some form of elliptic curve cryptography with domain parameters different from the NIST and GOST standards. I don't personally have the depth of experience with ellipt

When people say that the Linux kernel is monolithic they really mean that it is not a microkernel architecture. In microkernels the designer says "Having a minimal microkernel with lots of separate modules is good therefore we will do

The Linux kernel is not monolithic in the sense that people are talking about here. There are modules or parts in the Linux kernel that are composed using carefully crafted APIs. The kernel difference is that the design goals are different

Use the actor model to design your code. Include a supervisor tree in your design so that the supervisors will notice when a piece has segfaulted (or is leaking memory) and deal with it, This is not rocket science and really has nothing to

One mitigating factor is that a properly written cloud app would have lots of small/simple services loosely coupled by a database and/or some kind of message queuing service (AMQP). That would limit the complexity in comparison to

Predicting the future is risky. HHVM exists. You can benchmark it against Python and Ruby today. What are the results? In any case, Python has things like cx_freeze that can be used to make apps close to compiled performance. And Python is

TED talks are marketing. There is no real link between most of these talks so the fact that it is a TED talk rather than just a presentation, is basically meaningless. TED is just a brand that people licence in order to attract an audience.

I think that it is as simple as how people say and write dates in full. In the USA people say July fourth most of the time, but in the UK people say the first of May more often. And the year is often not necessary in spoken communication. E
