I'm surrounded by doctors and I don't know any that abuse drugs, other than alcohol and maybe weed. I believe they are just so busy and so overworked that they are constantly moving around / doing paperwork. The demands of th

In my experience, you are absolutely correct. I dated a nurse for a while and later married a doctor, and it was completely different. Physician training is absolutely, terrifyingly demanding.

My wife's a second-year resident and it's pretty unbelievable how hard and how much they work. She's on her 18th straight day of working long days during the week and long nights during the weekend. Legally there's an 80

FWIW, I love my (last-gen) MBP. i7, 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. Maybe you can get one for less now?

That is quite honestly the exact three reasons I use Siri. I do, however, open Google fairly often to search for complicated answers. The Google voice dictation engine is so incredibly accurate.

In my mid-30s and still can't grow a beard. Better than in my 20s, but not by much. I really hate having to shave with a razor everyday.

I believe you've surfaced the real issue – there's no confirmation prompt that requires the keychain password.

I've been using VueJS for a few months and am a big fan. Can you elaborate on why Weex would be attractive to VueJS users? I couldn't find much documentation on it.

I used Skeleton in the past and loved it for the same reasons. I'm trying out Imperavi Kube for a new project and it's clean, minimalist, and easy to use. I'm on mobile, otherwise I'd find you a link, but I'd recomm

I appreciate this approach. I'd love to be more active with outside-of-work projects, but my days are usually already full. And I can't provide a lot of code samples because the majority of my work is IP.

I believe this is the most difficult aspect of working remotely. I've been a remote developer for four years and I absolutely miss and crave phatic communication. I spend a good portion of my time in coffee shops, but interestingly eno

I find that landing page truly frustrating. I can't do anything besides watch the background video and "Star" them on Github.

Perhaps they meant professionally.

The point of the story is to illustrate how they arrived at the conclusion. I personally don't believe the point always needs to be made at the beginning to hook the reader. Sometimes that works, but, in this case, the title of the pos

I've used a few and like Material Design Lite the most. There may be others that are easier to work with, but MDL feels the most true to the Material Design specs and it follows the BEM method, which makes sense to me. Their example pa

I started studying ballet at the age of three and continued through high school. I eventually stopped to pursue other sports and academic interests, but I grew up rather alone as a young boy with an immense appreciation for — borderline obs

All joking aside, that's exactly how traffic works in Portland.

I think it's important to note that the 11 accidents the self-driving cars were involved in were the fault of the other driver.

I actually have an office in town that I can go to (I work for a larger company that's in a lot of cities) so I try to go once or twice a week. I just have an open cube in a quiet corner. It does help, but I usually don't talk wit

I've been working from home for the last three years and I can say that I'm far happier and more productive on a day to day basis. I worked in offices for about 10 years and just never felt comfortable in the cube life. I think on

Shaving your legs doesn't take much time at all. I race a few times a week (during the season) and shave once, at most twice, a week. Probably takes 10 minutes to shave. There's nothing I could do for 10 minutes a week that would

Exactly. I'm an active racer and have witnessed people get yelled at in the medic tent for not shaving their legs. Treating road rash is awful with leg air.

I just filled out the tuition estimator, and for an undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering Tech (not sure what "Tech" means), it costs almost $67k for four years. I haven't looked into online education before, but tha
