Nothing like an experienced engineer to slow down progress. Give me a hungry engineer right out of school and we will get this thing done. Sure we may injure thousands of people in the process but we can deal with that after the product is

I have seen the issue that you are talking about but I am not sure what causes it. I have 25 year old documents printed with laser printer that have not released from the paper at all yet I have ten year old documents where it happens when

I am younger than your grandparents but I have children that range for 14-31 and I can tell you that I could afford to go to college based on what I made as a short order cook but my kids would not have been able to earn enough to even pay

Of course more women are attracted to smart successful men and of course they are attracted to physically attractive men but it is a bit easier to see your muscles than your master's degree when you are walk in a room. First impression

Debian desktop user off and on (mostly on) for 25 years checking in. I use it exactly because it is easy to get everything working.

The faq menu gives you a lot of system documentation including cost information. There are parts of the system like com and bboard that I don't think were ever meant to be open for folks to use as components in their own system.

My whole career I had the attitude that the job was more important than the money. I have budgeted and planned so I could retire well even though I have not made a lot of money. The problem is that I did not foresee that a divorce would end

Have you considered that she wants to spend most of her time with the children rather than working? Maybe she does not know how to say it to you or herself but she could be looking for an excuse to move into the full time role of a mother.

I think of SLAs as how do we design this thing. Ask for a system without an SLA and I will give you a system that is well designed and almost never goes down. As soon as you ask for an SLA, I will give you an over engineered system that cos

The problem with sorry is that it invites someone to say "It's OK" or even "It's not OK." Neither of these matter because it is about you not them.

by mmcgaha 5y ago
Yes, something along the lines of "I made a mistake" or "what I did was wrong". I am not talking about accidentally bumping someone and saying sorry; those really are shallow and just about being polite. So here is an ex

I do not say sorry but I will admit my mistakes, work to make up for them, and try to understand why I made the mistake so I don't repeat in the future. Sorry is cheap and I refuse to use it.

Exactly this. I also use ( ) to denote things that others owe me.

I love beat saber, but I feel like it is VR at the space invaders stage. I think in the next ten years we will see the platformer and beat-um-up stage games; I just don't have the imagination to predict what they will be like.

I think because many people's first exposure to CSP was in go, go-style-concurrency has become the crescent wrench of CSP.

Interesting when I clicked the link they offered a 20% discount. Two minutes later I get an email offering a 30% discount. I used Network Solutions before moving to Google Domains and I will take no customer support over bad customer suppor

Sweet, now I can say that I am doing it for mother earth instead of admitting that I am too lazy to do it every weekend.

Maybe we have a different opinion on what small is but to run a stove, you will need a whole house generator and the starting point is about $10k and most folks will end up spending twice that.

If we get to vote on it, I vote to limit government surveillance of citizens. Short of society making that decision and understanding the consequence, I will try to have empathy for the folks who have to make hard decisions that have no cor

I can not enumerate the list of possible threats but at the extremes would be plans use molotov cocktails on police cars up to plans to blow up public buildings (think Oklahoma City level). Anything between these extremes is possible and in

I did read it and I use intelligence instead of "secretive, long-running surveillance" because it is a word that describes the same thing without spicing it up with evil intent.

by mmcgaha 5y ago
If they had not been monitoring intelligence and something big happened then they did not do enough; if they do enough and nothing big happens then they are abusing their power. No matter which way it goes we all get to wiggle our finger an

Windows 95 was great not because of the icons, colors, or anything like that. It was great because the UI was consistent and intuitive. There were a few weird things in there like the briefcase but for the most part it was just enough UI an

I find it interesting when folks look at themselves as different than others. I don't have any first hand knowledge of what is going on with these guards, but I do know that I am not better than them. I am just as human and have all of
