“Reading and writing are the most important skills” Interesting I think the same but my 8 yo girl says she enjoys doing math more: story problem, xtramath and IXL seem to occupy her more than reading and writing, except reading comics I wou

I have not seen anything that could come close to the robustness and flexibility XML has to offer. When being used for configuration XML seems to be the superior choice. People tend to give XML a bad name in RPC usage for being verbose. But

My dad died from multiple strokes this Feb. When he was transported to another hospital for a brain surgery he was intubated. A couple of days later, the ICU doctor came and told us to prepare to fulfill his wishes. They said to have him in

This is not normal even by American police standard. The cop who handcuffed the little girl is obsessed with arresting people. I listened to NBC last night and they reported that he brags about his arrest records a lot: a few thousands arre

He was a VP. I’m not aware VP is a mid level management job. I always thought director level and below would be the case.

”The temperature of the water does not appear to affect microbe removal; however, warmer water may cause more skin irritation and is more environmentally costly.” And I always thought warm water is better than cold water for washing hand.

I am aware of that. My wife was working part time and had to take vacation days to stay home. I was working full time for FAANG and had to take vacation days for paternity leave, too. I stayed home for 3 weeks, the most I could take. There

My in-laws were with us for 6 months after our little girl was born. My wife and I took over almost everything childcare related to be with her except for things like cooking meals and catch up naps during the day sometimes. Some parents do

I'll give this a try. I'm currently using VSCode & Calva. It's been a bless! I create an uberjar with Clojure's nrepl server and start that server with my java project's dependent jars. At the end, I am able to

#3 is incorrect. If you choose to “sell all” when vested instead of “sell to cover” then the RSU award will be just ordinary income. If you sell to cover and then sell the remaining vested RSU within a year (sans insider trading rule) any p

The first few years (2 or 3 in my case), is tough. You don’t get any more RSU hence you need to stick with it. After that period, I got awarded more every performance review. So, the vested schedule is bearable but I still feel it is a gold

The coding interview in our industry reminds me of a question on Quora I got today. It asks if it is true that Richard Feynman only had a 125 IQ score. It is the case. And it makes me wonder how much good those interview questions are used

Rant ahead: I gave up gaming on a PC in 2013 and decided to get a PS3 instead. I did this because I got fed up with the constant upgrades (OS, drivers, game patches, etc..) that sometimes required me to spend a few hours of maintenance to p

I wanted to purchase a few of the Wyze cameras for my house because of the price ~$20 each. At first, I thought this price could be a loss-leader strategy for more lucrative services (premium or longer cloud storage), kind of like Ring but

I love Firefox and moved back from Chrome in 2018. But, occasionally there are websites that just don't work in Firefox and work in Chrome/Safari. For example, go to https://my.t-mobile.com And I will see: 502 Bad Gate

Is it easier now to package and distribute single binary for a program written in Julia? In 2018 I was looking into Julia but the prospect of distributing it like python codes made me cringe.

I work for big FANG. Even though my salary is not at the ridiculous level I feel it is more than enough to support my family and have a big chunk of saving aside. In contrary to what I assume, I never feel bored at work. I almost always fin
