I'm confused. Is this being given tasks, showing off existing projects or working together on mutually decided projects?

That might be one of the reasons that type information is optional in Erlang, and what makes it fairly expressive at the cost of some static analysis.

TL;DR - most dynamic languages allow most things to change at any time. So with a large codebase, it's hard to know where a particular something is getting changed (or not). IOTW, it makes error traceability of the codebase more diff

Extracting millions out of acquirees should be done with the least possible investment. Seriously, if you can rook 'em in some way that can't blow back, go for it.

A friend of mine has a great idea about how to approach marriage: don't unless you've dated for several years AND want to have (or already have) kids. If either condition fails, don't. Just don't.

OEM/ODM contract manufacturers do most of the heavy lifting of figuring how to make things cheap. Most of the time they cut corners creatively and save everyone money and it works out, but sometimes the low-volume shops go too far and

First, folks give up way too easily. It takes time for things to hit even when everything's dialed-in. Second, unless an app costs a ton of money to keep going, find a home for it. There's always some shop that will buy up your

Moving to the BA is a win for anything tech because cash flows freely, but the cost of living is murder. If possible, buy some land somewhere cheaper like Oregon and work remotely as much as possible. Options after about 10 employees are w

Very bad advice. Pioneers get slaughtered. Also, some niches are unfilled for a reason. Let someone else figure that out (eg waste lots of time and money going nowhere) and instead copy what works (SaaS apps that have recurrent monthly c

It's perfectly reasonable (if technically possible) for either the OS or a third-party "firewall" app to intercept dangerous requests and prompt the user to allow/deny them.
