Sure, but what if I place a camera on each side of your property (outside the property line) of your house, pointing to the edge of your property, then use your tax dollars to pay employees to watch you on the cameras every time you leave y

Let me see if I understand this correctly. It's OK for the state to have 120 cameras on each street corner watching your every move (see London), but it's not OK to share your Facebook posts? Disclaimer: I'm very much against

Ha, this coming from the same company that is helping the CIA build a 600 million dollar data center for spying...

I'd say Python handles package management better than just about anything else, period. Regarding "whitespace"... best stick with PHP or Perl.

In other words, do what you love and do it well, and don't ever let "papers, please" get in your way.

FWIW, I won't bother with anybody in my life that requires a degree for anything, even teaching. Having a degree for something is, IMHO, no better than having a JD Power & Associates award, which is not very valuable. Now, are ther

Please, somebody - who knows the URL (or the HN post) wherein the guy (IIRC, a lawyer) states the 10 things the government will do to reduce the fallout from this? I'm totally freaked out because the guy was right, down to the last ste

Python, because Python rocks! No, seriously, if you haven't tried Python, try it. It's getting better every year.

This sounds like pretty much every software project/team that's managed by a large company (or a subsidiary thereof).

Wetware to hardware interfaces, no joke. There is many a company working on what will inevitably result in very rudimentary mind-reading machines within the next few years, and the early stages of these techs will surely be "cool" next year

I think Bitcoin was considered cool circa early 2011. It can almost be considered mainstream, if not for that little fact that Fox News, et al define what is commonly known as "mainstream".

Exactly. Otherwise, include a license with your work, state that it is copyrighted, and still expect people to say whatever they want about you or it... Or, put it on your own private network, known as Not-The-Internet.

The Internet is not yours. If you put content on the PUBLIC Internet, consider yourself to be consenting to any abuse the Internet as a whole wishes to dish out in return.

Why does anyone care whether one group of people (e.g., women) wants to participate? I love how the antithesis of "equality" and "fairness" is always creeping its way into every sector under the misnomer of the latter two. "Here, be f

At the risk of sounding paranoid, if I were Moxie, I'd be on the lookout for sure :/ when you get into this sort of thing, not to mention the money involved, you're running serious risk of being "cancered" to death.

The ability for "hackers" to thrive is a necessary price to pay to secure our rights on the Internet. Trading freedom for security pays nothing, and never will. Let the FBI work their asses off to try to bust these people.

I know. I can't stand Quora. I'm not sure why I followed the link, but for once I was pleasantly surprised.

Wow, that was a great answer. I'm actually watching a show about Everest this very moment, and was telling my wife about how Everest is less prominent than 3 other mountains (except for the fact that there is a special definition for promin

Wow, doctape.com looks pretty cool. Minus a bit of the "header and footer are too big" complaints the others had, that looks like a pretty good app. BTW, I think Apple is about to release something on the order of a personal robot. I'm just

I'm a Python (specifically Django, currently) developer. The key isn't what you do though. It's A) being an entrepreneur (1099 > W2), B)work your ass off, and C) always ask for more but act like you have some humility in the process (do

Poor guy, this is sad. I did have to laugh at, "He asked for a pencil and a piece of paper so he could write a program down.", however.
