If you're in BC (probably) then you need to look a little further back. The reason we have the BC Liberals (aka Conservatives) is because the NDP (socdems) won on FPTP and the Libs and Cons merged. Voting 3rd party is why we are the

So the solution to the two party system is to eliminate democracy altogether? I mean, I guess I expect that in 20-30 too...

Honestly that's bad db design anyways. If empty string is a valid value then you don't want NOT NULL anyways. This is a table structure constraint, not a variable declaration. NOT EMPTY would have been a better syntax imo but t

Be careful with that reasoning. Its illegal for the CDC to study gun violence as a public health measure. If that happened it might rank on child mortality rates.

Echoing this. Please for the love of God get your MBA. Its really, really easy. If you think weekend courses are going to be too much because you remember Engineering in college, I can tell you from experience that they won't be.

Oh look, its the hiring manager at Activision! Good job confusing equality for equity. A decent manager could easily achieve gender equity with a "25:1" ratio. Unfortunately it seems that might be beyond your capacity as a sub

I totally agree. Twitter's ratio is probably the best upvote/downvote system. At best it results in providing context for the disagreement. At worst, if the person is a complete idiot then a constant stream of people dunking on

I'm also a government Oracle dev. I have no way of knowing what I'm licensed for and they don't disable the features we're not licensed for. I literally have to talk to my director to talk to our account rep to figure

If IT is on the value chain this seems insane. If IT is ancillary to the value chain then this is standard.

We're heading back to the 2000s. I fully expect YouTube to put ads into premium eventually. You are too valuable a commodity to them to do otherwise. (If you think you are a customer then lol, the advertisers are the customers)

OLAP is legacy hell. I built an MDX query to solve a report problem, but now I can't replace it because my seniors failed to deconstruct it because it is stupid difficult to wrap your head around. So now it sits in limbo until I can

Their conclusion is a bit off. The WBS and GANTT charts are used for resource planning. I don't work for a unicorn so resource constraints mean that I actually need to plan, prioritize, and schedule work. If I do a bad job of that t

Low-code has been a success in my org, because it's driven by programmers with business analyst acumen. Its not for everyone, but for the right person, it just clicks and they can sit down with a client and come up with something gre

Its not a good space for high performers. Regular programmers don't give a fuck. The paycheck spends the same. Management doesn't give a fuck either, so yeah they'll hire for this limited skill set and probably pay less too

I've onboarded a few people over the pandemic and that's really the only downside. I can't really gauge their mood while pair coding over zoom. So its harder to pick up on where they are struggling to keep up. All that has

Roomba i7. I had an ant problem that made it so I had to vacuum at least once a day. It empties itself and I can run it while I'm working, so it gets a lot of use. Thankfully lots of vacuuming and lots of traps seemed to have done th
