Because historically, excessive inequality doesn't end well for the haves.

Define "we". Many a rich man was made by picking a poor man's pocket.

I pushed for using state machines and more formal methods in the rewrite of a system that I and a number of other devs were hired for. The idea was turned down in favor of lots of ad hoc state and string constants, even though the system h

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that removing visibility into their motivations, by pushing the bulk of their activity in their insular communities offsite, allows them to more easily blend in and use less extreme lan

Perhaps it is the wikipedia administration, moderation, and editing team that have put up such barriers who are selfish. It is selfish to expect others to jump through your hoops to contribute advanced technical knowledge out of the kindne

Honestly, no. At least not that you can play right now. Star Wars Galaxies was something of a spiritual successor, but is defunct. There have been a few attempts at more free-form open world type games since then, but IMO, nothing really

In the US, in addition to feeling how you're feeling, you're likely to end up with thousands of dollars in new medical bills if we were to do what you did.

Have you tried a sleep study? I don't have a miracle story, but I've read a number of others'. Many people's live are nearly immediately improved after a sleep study/breathing study is done.

I use google fi so it's just automatically cheaper. Previously I could pay up to 80/mo for unlimited data, 20 base, 10 bucks per gig, free thereafter up to 15 gigs, throttled after 15 gigs. I've been paying between 20 and 30

I would love to work at the same company until I retire. The problem is that to actually make more money and gain skills you MUST, as a software engineer, hop jobs every 2-3 years. I wish it weren't so, but that's just how it is

I've done some WFH days each week in the past and been quite productive. I've been doing quarantine work for 7 weeks now and I feel like it's fucking with my head and I can barely get any work done. This sucks. I'm co

This is exactly what I came to post. It's just a really well thought out service with gobs of connectors and a rich enough model to allow for basic boolean, looping, and scripting. I used it plus a Google sheet as the first version of

I just got a 2020 Civic. There are touch screen control, but volume, music, climate control (up and down, not which vents), tuner, cruise control, and a number of other things are all physical buttons and knobs. I mostly have Android Auto

I 100% agree with you, and furthermore I assert that I am far more qualified to make this assertion than you.

Yep. When I was 2 my parents got an old computer from my uncle's business that he was replacing and set it up in their living room for me. I was learning the command line as a toddler. I'm certainly no guru, but that kind of fo

Probably because the people wanting to loan the money don't think the people wanting to borrow the money are going to be able to pay it back, so they're charging larger interest rates to compensate them for the risk. That's

I'm surprised there's any emphasis on Windows in a CS course. I'm a C#/cloud dev and I use Windows as my daily driver, but we were allowed to use any OS we wanted. Only catch was that for some courses our final project

That's really slow. I can do that on a bike unassisted easily, and would make my class 3 e-bike less than useless. It's great for doing hills fast and hitting 25+ MPH (40+ KM/h) in the city and makes it a great commuting opt

I've been running a big ass noctua on my 5930K (first intel 6 core) for a solid 6 years now on a 4.2GHz overclock. No problems whatsoever, other than the thing doesn't want to do 4.3 anymore, but it was always a bit unstable when

Yeah I agree with that fo sho. I'd like 2-3 days/week WFH. I like seeing my co-workers, but commuting and being distracted sucks.

Why would younger folks up and quit if they couldn't come to an office? This doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

This is a culture issue too. So much of work today that takes place in big cities can easily be done from home, but companies and managers are still stuck in a 20th century "butts in seats" mentality.
