I just received an Arduino Edge control unit to run some 9v valves but it was DOA. Well, it worked when I threw a bench supply at it but USB doesn't work. FWIW support has been amazingly responsive but not a great first go around with

Our campus job fair was last week and I'm watching very closely as a new batch of seniors get hit by reality. I feel like the financial engineers are eating the lunches of CS folks whose only skills is to "sling code". These

What an album! Aside from the hubris of asserting something so bold in the first place, it can not too controversial of a take to state that "Blue in Green" is the finest musical recording ever produced. If I had one, single song

Though not quite as high as avocado or safflower, I presume you're aware that refined olive oils can have pretty high smoke points. But it surprises me how often I'll be at a friend's home and they grease up their frying pan

I installed Joplin once but the icon in my dock was so garish that I immediately uninstalled it.

Yeah whipped cream right out of the can was a thing I got into when doing keto back in the day.

Where in the article was it discussed how Snowflake offered him some extraordinary compensation at his departure? Not seeing anything about it.

by mp05 3y ago
That's not what a golden parachute is. That is a compensation package meant to protect executives when terminated for things that aren't necessarily performance-related. This guy was hired to take this company public. He did this

You sure that's not a Burger King? I've never seen a Wendy's near me that wasn't slammed around normal eating times.

Nah if you've craving a Wendy's spicy chicken in particular then no other will do.

> NodeJS is a framework. Huh, I had no idea. Sometime around Node 8.x, the async/await functionality in the ECMA spec was finally added to the stable API and I began to enjoy writing Javascript as a result. The language had a featur

> It only seems capable due to those frameworks and abstractions. Are talking about Javascript or the DOM? I write a lot of NodeJS and since somewhere around v8 or 9 it became pretty nice to use.

by mp05 3y ago
Perhaps it's strange to the uninitiated that so many seemingly useless/redundant abstractions exist around something that seems pretty capable of doing the job without a bunch of handwaving. If you never worked with the DOM in 201

The concepts of "Trump being a uniform piece of shit" and "Trump being the target of a weaponized judicial system" aren't mutually exclusive but he can't seem to reconcile that fact. I like to think it's b
