Regarding point #3, I would be weary of putting my food in the hands of an unaccountable person. If the person works for the restaurant then they have some level of responsibility for the end user experience. If they are working temp for so

Doesn't previous use of a domain name by an unscrupulous actor lower the value of a domain name? If so, I would be weary of renting out a domain name without understanding how it would be used.

Truthfully, I am still that same person on the inside. I am making some effort to fight off the motivation to give in to it in times of stress. I think it won't ever go away and I will just have to manage it to the best of my ability.

I don't think you could have more perfectly described what I experienced. The only thing that kept me from completely succumbing to it was my family's economic situation. I was something of a functional hikiki, drowning on the ins

I had plenty of meals at Chino-Latino places growing up. In my neighborhood, they were the only Chinese food places that offered a sit-down dining experience. Every standard Chinese place was all takeout and even then, all transactions took

I am a programmer. I think I veered into the sciences because there were rules that made sense. I have trouble with being told, "this is just the way it is". I went to church for the second time in years this past Sunday. I am mov

You might have been and possibly still are under an NDA from the acquisition process. I'm not sure it is worthwhile detailing all of this in a public forum.

Ground Zero (Clyde Lewis) had a whole show about it. You can get it as a podcast.

Not sure where to go from there. You've precluded the possibility that regions and good design should exist at the same time in the same file. Where does the absolutism in the tech industry come from? We are a bunch of individuals who

It's a Pavlovian response, really. If I see the word WinAmp, that is what I hear in my head.

We use regions to standardize the layouts of our classes. Except for trivial classes, you will find the same regions in the same positions making it eas(ier) to find, for example, all methods implementing an interface, or all of the private

As someone who struggled through calculus, this book would have made a huge difference for me. Just reading through the first few pages brought a smile to my face that someone could so plainly explain these critical concepts in such a famil

I wanted to be a priest. At some point, my relationship with faith soured and I no longer saw it as a calling.

Same here. It is a good combination and creating a build task for nim is super simple.

There are elements of race and class that underlie this phenomenon. The "van life" theme is a foil for "pretty people in pretty places" where pretty people look a certain way. And those people can afford to live that way

There is so much truth in this. I would look at the situation as an opportunity. The freedom to live your life as you want, even for a short amount of time, can change your perspective forever. And it doesn't have to be an all-or-nothi

One of the key takeaways, and one that was really obvious in the last interview is that you should do things that don't scale. It's hard to distinguish between actual roadblocks to your business as compared to itches that you just

Whenever a junior team member comes to me for help, the first question I ask is, "what are we trying to accomplish". Unfortunately, we have a tendency to lose sight of purpose when going through process. Discussions usually start

Have you tried city or utility jobs? They are not as sexy, but they have the potential to meet every one of your requirements. Secondly, the way you talk about your abilities makes me want to shake you. You are no less capable than the next

I use GalliumOS on a Dell ChromeBook 13 (i5/8GB). I don't have any issues except that the machine reboots itself during sleep sometimes. That's not a big deal for me, so I am very happy with the experience besides missing Ubu

After 4 years, I have to imagine your startup has matured to the point where you are no longer feeling like you can make a significant impact. It's diminishing returns for your cognitive output from here on out unless the company has a

I agree. I don't think the headline of this article is correct. The author's expectations were incorrect and it certainly is a good thing for everyone to be aware of, but this is like saying "don't use pointers because I

I sympathize with you. I am in my late 30s so I didn't experience that level of inanity, but I did work somewhere where I had to carry a pager. I let the battery die though not on purpose. I was terrified the third time it happened. Th

Using some joke lipsum generator for client facing designs is a sign of poor judgement, but excusable and serves as a teachable moment. Not understanding what lipsum is at all is much less excusable. I would note, however, that you failed t

I've faced this a few times. There were times when I knew that the situation would change and stayed, but I left when I was in your situation and knew that any form of change would be years in the making and my skills would atrophy in
