Sounds like a project manager. Step 1) Prepare for project. 1-2 weeks. Step 2) Do programming 3-4 weeks. Step 3) Unit tests and QA 2 weeks.

Looks like a “100% human experience” weeds out parents with young children.

Artists are very cringy. A lot of musicians are cringy. Some teachers are cringy. Not sure about chefs or dog walkers.

You ask for evidence, then follow up with "I heard from people..."?

I hate this repackaging of content that just pads with filler pretending to be an article. The mentalfloss article I mean.

Agile always seemed like a cargo cult. When you don't understand how or why something works, this is how you go about it. Let's make airplane-shaped things out of coconuts.

As long as it's quiet and expandable and less expensive than the laptops, I don't care what the desktop looks like.

So far he's right. It doesn't work now. It works better than the blue/red glasses, but that's not saying much. As for the "inability to solve this technological problem", that could be true. I don't think

I think the open office started with Chiat/Day (ad/design firm). It was back when laptops were first introduced and it was seen as a cool way to work. People would get to be mobile, sit anywhere they want, etc. Found this: https:

We have open offices because we need to be close. We have remote workers because we don't need them close.

I have the same experience. When I was younger I was puzzled when my friends mom (richer family) was so nice. Cooked large breakfast for us when I stayed over, etc. And his friends were nice. And they talked normally to each other and were

For the longest time I took it to be the norm that a manager is mostly there to pressure you to work, to get things done well and on time. Then I had a manager (he was technical) that actually helped solve issues. He didn't have to tou

CFO left a year after IPO. Then we had things that seemed like busy work.

I wonder if the Mac would have touch if Microsoft didn't have it.

Yep. Bought the washer and dryer and they are nice. Went with the electronic controls though. And also top loading washer to avoid moisture/mold issues if door left closed.

It would be more interesting to know why this stack helped the business. Otherwise it's just a list that doesn't have much connection to the $1B part in the title.

Questions about tools are usually innocuous. It gives some insight. Experienced devs do it too. Is that team using React? Are you using Go? Gives you an idea of where people are going. What other tools are available, how easy it will be to

I think no matter how good you are, you need to have people skills. You may be the best there is for this moment in time, but there's always someone better. And besides, you usually need a lot of people to do something sustaining.

Physics seeks to find out how things work. Questions might not be answerable but that doesn't put it out of the scope of physics. The hard problem you pose (positioning atoms... triggering perception of color or pain), what else is tha

It is but don't worry about it. It's getting better by the hour. Just think about this: Has it ever been easier to reach so many people with so little effort?

Not confined to math, but it's helped me become aware that problems can be solved by reasoning. Also to be measured in how sure I am about something being right.

It's here in programming too. C++ gets a lot of hate for being ugly, while Lisp is praised for it's beauty.
