We've had a better alternative to "chatbots" for a long time, it's called a command line. All of this obsession over "natural language processing" is annoying to me. I have a Google home, and it can't do e

Don't listen to the breeders. You can choose to have a family when you want. You don't need to share blood with your child in order for it to be a meaningful and fulfilling relationship. I'm from a large extended family that

A lot of people don't seem to understand that not all housing is a good investment, and that paying rent and making your landlord pay for repairs and maintaining the house while you invest your money elsewhere is often the smarter move

This is cute, but with what we now know about CTE, I can't help but find boxing, football, etc disgusting. I'm not just being a pretentious nerd, I actually like sports and I used to love watching boxing / MMA. It is so so so

I worked with `sh` for a while. I strongly prefer invoke. It handles signal processing and TTY flawlessly. You can even get it to ssh into remote terminals and open a console and it works. It's also a CLI builder where you can chain co

Recently I've replaced most of my bash scripting with the python library invoke. It's written by the same people who wrote the python ssh scripting framework fabric. http://www.pyinvoke.org/ Works great!!

True, but all of those languages are very heavy-handed and have ancient and arcane build-tools and package management ( If they have it at all ) For me, I was looking for a language that is appropriate for both scripting and slightly larger

Dynamic languages tend to be more popular. Examples: - ruby - python - Javascript I was on a quest for a good, well supported, statically typed scripting language for quite a while, and in the end I defaulted to python.

Agreed. I've run Linux for years with no issues whatsoever. I feel that people who criticize the platform have yet to try it... Though to be fair, if your are running Photoshop or final cut Linux is not a great use case

Healthcare costs in the US are inflated due to corporate welfare and funny money coming from insurance companies. Similar to the situation with student loans where school prices have risen to match the amount of loan money student are able

OK so how is a native application different? You can do the exact same things in a native app.

> 1. Most web "apps" actually only work on Chrome, so there's that. So much for the open, standardized web. This is completely anecdotal, so I'll volunteer my own anecdote: I've used Firefox for years and basical

The Super Mario Bros movie is a treasure of a terrible film. Even reading the production retrospectives is hilarious. And the fact that Dennis Hopper is in the movie is priceless.

What a crock of crap. "Don't be ambitious: be mediocre and replaceable." He's right. Don't try to be a youtube star or a professional athlete, or an actor. Do something realistic. But I mean... do something ambitiou

I bought a Dell XPS for less than half the price and better specs. No regrets. Apple hardware isn't that amazing, and even if it is, who cares. "Build quality" is just an excuse to spend more money on a luxury designer laptop

Improved deployments, repeatable builds, easier monitoring, makes it platform-agnostic, easier networking, resource limits. There are many reasons. And, as other people have pointed out, a docker container isn't a VM. It's a chroo

My position comes from experience. My situation is a bit different: My grandfather was killed in a a car accident by an extremely over-worked trucker and we get a very large settlement, millions, out of it. Terrible tragedy. My grand-mother

Either get a lawyer and take him to court, or move on and get your own business. No more hand-wriging and hoping. Your father sounds like a snake, by the way.

KSonnet looks great, but I think it needs to mature a bit more. PLUS, underneath the hood of Ksonnet is a massive amount of jsonnet code that I'm not extremely familiar with, and I like to learn my tools very thoroughly before I begin

You're absolutely correct here, saying "corrupt politicians" was lazy and means nothing. Additionally, I agree there were failures at many levels regarding the promises made to the people of Illinois. Honestly, I don't c

You raise a valid point, I shouldn't editorialize in this context. I don't KNOW if it was corrupt politicians. Better to say: "The money was badly mishandled"
