Among a list of covers, your cover loses out. It looks like a blanket on fire in a Nazi guy's bedroom. The title or cover doesn't convey what "Golden Seed" is supposed to mean - nor does the description. What kind of mar

I respect him for building a company this huge. Luck and privilege played a part for sure, but without laser-focused willpower and endurance, it won't have been possible to get Amazon to what it is today. At the same time, this is almo

I see no actual prices posted by anyone, so here is something to use as a starting point: Anywhere between $80,000 to $1 million. Realistically, around $160,000 to $650,000. I am assuming that you don't have anything exclusive and that

As someone who wants to use Rust for real world applications, what are some good use cases for Rust? Web development is not its strong suite, apparently. Or, better still, what have you personally built using Rust?

Sure. I am glad that you find it useful :) When I wrote it, I was thinking mostly about OP and how I can help, but now when I read it again, I see that you are right - most points are generic enough to be applicable to more than OP.

Just to be clear, after a quick read: This paper applies to science and innovation only. Citation-weighted publications are used to compare. There are countries where migrants are much more productive than the U.S. in non-STEM areas, but it

Agree. They, of course, have their own reasons for doing this. But regardless, I feel it is a very good thing to happen. If influential people from both parties can work together for issues like this, it will make the world a better and fai

And Rashida Tlaib and Donald Trump Jr too. I am so glad to see legislators and politicians from both sides, regardless of their motivations, getting together on the side of the people. For the people, you know.

I was lucky to see and work with this IDE in a real project, long after it stopped "existing". The company had code written using Visual Age, and it needed to be ported out of it. Wasn't too bad, considering how old it was. N

Ah. RMI. It is funny. When I started with Java, one of the first real-world problems I faced, was solved using RMI. After many years, I faced a weird situation where requests were not passing through properly and hence, security assertions

Java has amazing longevity. People have been writing articles about its demise, and yet, it is still here. I have programmed in Java for a long, long time. Getters and setters, Maven and its vagaries, abundant use of patterns - all of these
