It is NOT a pain to tell people the password, just good security hygiene which everybody needs to learn and to do conscientiously. It is no different from using toilet paper after number 2, then flushing and then washing your hands. Want to

Did you try to get all the Apple details out of your posting and replace them with Android ones? What difference does it make whether they built an iOS app if they are a mobile app developer? Also, why not look for a web app developer speci

It is a sign of incompetent management that they demand only A+++ players. A good manager would hire only B players, then train and mentor them. A really GREAT manager would hire only C players that have the right attitude, and still end up

Don't well written cover letters help employers quickly evaluate a large number of applications? And don't complain that you don't get them along with the resumes. 1) Ask for a cover letter explaining why you are a fit for th

I expect that there are people reading this thread for whom it is the last straw that makes them move back to Europe or Canada. And there are some Americans for whom this thread convinces them to emigrate for good. The Internet is making th

HHVM is one of the things that is making PHP obsolete. You simply cannot run a top-level Internet business on PHP anymore. It does not work!! PERIOD! Facebook realized this and solved the problem by building a proper platform to run a subse

In particular, PHP should be obsolete now that we have many more ways of integrating pieces of code rather than linking together subroutines in one BIG BALL OF MUD. It is no longer necessary for an application to be written in one language

The problem with GMO is that growers want to keep it secret. They are not proud of what they are doing and do not want to label their products as GMO. They believe that we, the consumers, are stupid and need to be protected by big brother (

Been through dozens of interviews in the last 5 years and never encountered this. I think this would work well because it draws out a conversation. An interview should be about discovering how a person solves problems, not about either the

I think it is far more useful to build a process for software engineering that continually reviews itself and makes things better. A fizzBuzz test is useful to figure out how a person approaches a coding problem and something like that sho

Since 3d sintering used metal powder it may be possible to do special alloys as well. I agree that the end solution may be a hybrid one with d printed parts from different materials assembled together. Also, as you point out a lot of testin

It's the building of new cars that I am after. These cars have been tested in service for 58 years which is more than any other kind of car. Presumably the Cubans have made some modifications and improvements as well.

Could it be that when space and time get stretched beyond the Planck interval, then the black hole ceases to exist at all beyond that point? In other words, the center of a black hole is non-existence itself. Looking at it from the time ang

It is a good idea to have a look at this book, but not every person will find that a particular book speaks to them. If you can get into the groove of Scheme/LISP then run with it, and after you finish SICP move on to Rack or Clojure.

I would actually solve the game/show problem a different way. I would teach kids how to build MVC web apps and set up a cheap server so that apps could be "shown" to anyone on any device. If you use a mobile-first design phil

If you can't remember to get up from coding, there are timer apps that you can get to remind you to walk around. Besides, it is good for creativity and debugging to get away from the screen and go somewhere else, even if it is only to

Interestingly, some folks built a Hypercard like environment with Python called PythonCard. The intention was to give easy access to Python programming in the same way that Hypercard gave developers a start. It hasn't been updated in y

But as you point out, the IETF and NANOG have openly documented how to set up hotel wifi that doesn't suck. It doesn't take any technical experience whatever to hire a WiFi firm and instruct them to set up a system the same way th

There is a solution to this problem. It's called bankruptcy after which someone buys the hotels assets without the debts and other obligations. The new owner can then set up a sensible free WiFi service ( and charge that old WiFi compa

Just travel to Canada instead and stay at one of the many hotels that offer free WiFi to all hotel guests. This is the way of the future. Especially for those families with multiple devices. Mom and Dad's laptops, tablets and phone, pl

+1 for your 4th point. Rockstars are not much use if they can't bring up the whole team's performance a notch or two.

In the discussions about rockstar developers people pay far too little attention to context, to the environment in which people work. Some people have both the education and inclination to be great at developing CRUD apps. And if the job re

I feel the same about Latin's elegance which I learned in the 70s in high school. More recently I have mastered Russian and find the same kind of elegance and ability to convey a lot in a few words. There are all kinds of two word and

All these media outlets make a point of saying that they have carefully redacted anything that may put people's lives in danger. I imagine that any site which published it raw would be taken down even in USA.

No point in pretending that you can just cross a border and do what you want. In particular, Netherlands does have a very different attitude to gay people than even the USA. Best to warn people that emigrating involves cultural shock and ch

I think that Ruskomnadzor does understand the dynamic nature of the Internet which is why your sites were restored when you removed the illegal material. They don't want to block you, they just want to stop Russians from ignoring the l
