   Bombardier should probably be split up into multiple smaller companies and taken off the public's $$$. I've paid taxes and I'm pretty sure most of my tax dollars are just getting thrown at Bombardier.

   Yep there's something to be said about being addicted to screens and how it changes our attention span and focus. I've been trying to use my long commute to work to increase focus and be less agitated by distractions.

   The marketers and advertisers have finally won. Google hasn't been an engineering company for the last 5 years maybe, but this confirms it. It's like Facebook, they're beholden to the non-developers and non-software engineers

   Agreed and this is why React has been given a pass I think, because it's only for display purposes.

    Wikileaks previously did work with journalists to leak only things of interest to the public, they abandoned that position because it doesn't make sense to protect the state. These leaked emails were from govt agents and are unencrypte

    At the same time we should still praise them for trying to replicate a study, which doesn't happen nearly often enough in the computer science field (aside from algorithms and data structures studies).

    Keep in mind this is venture capitalists or founders spending, employees don't most of what SV elitists are lobbying for.

    I'm more curious to know how these affect the profits of StackOverflow and what gets more bang for the buck or if random ideas are being tried out seeing which one sticks.

    I've always found it curious why no one sets up a class-action lawsuit about the privacy and 3rd party selling of data.

    My resume includes articles I wrote in 2007 and the tutoring I've done; why? Because very few software devs have done that sort of thing. It's funny though because in general I could pare it all down to maybe two paragraphs, I&#x2

    StackOverflow as a company may have grown a little too quickly; I wonder how much $$ they make from this and whether they should just focus on their core which is community and maintaining a decent community rather than these marketing-led

    It will become even more important to include visuals such as popular company logos or hip cool images. This is the only reason I created a logo for my open source project, so that it sticks out whenever someone posts about it.
