I don't think this will help tremendously, but don't feel frightened if there is nobody to mentor or push you. When I started fresh from college (although that is some kind of experience), I found myself in a small start-up with 4

I chuckled on the EU research grants part. My God, when I remember the monstrosities I was thinking up just to bodge in Semantic Web/Linked Data. Those guys are purely fueled by buzzwords. Maybe we met somewhere :) . "Semantic dat

We still don't know whether the pilots reacted properly or not. We don't know even if they had the time to react properly. These tweets are written with some assumptions, but correct, in general.

Maybe it's an overstatement, but further improvements on the 737 is beating a dead horse. Maybe even the MAX was a stretch, but if it weren't for this particular issue, it would live a long and happy life. Not that it won't a

I think slightly hyped by popular media. Kinda hard to defend with news like this. Just keep in mind not all Serbs are ruthless and dark, even if they had been impacted by war. (Comic relief) If you encounter a Serb, don't panic, chanc

Why? Sadly, Serbs (and other nationalities from the Balkans, but Serbs are a majority,) have a lot of trained and experienced "operatives". Rember Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo and the '99 bombing? That's a lot of experience g

Exactly. I didn't mean to imply that Boeing is discriminating based on the locality of an airline, but there is no denying that there is more money to be earned in places other than Indonesia or Ethiopia. That probably does reflect Boe

Maybe it's a confidence thing. Maybe small operators from these regions feel less supported/confident than their European or American counterparts. This might be a very pessimistic approach but I suppose a lot more phones go ringi

I suppose you are right. But with a huge code base, migration is not an overnight process...

Using it as my main language: Python (2.7). How the hell did this thing become so popular? I've used it for all sorts of stuff earlier, less complex than the other. Scripts, devops, ETL... But then I got into a company that is using it

Quite true, but considering the age (I'm not sure whether the battery is original or not), it does the job. The laptop was used, it's not new.

Can someone explain what does the 0.67 prevalence number mean? That can't be 67%?

Me too... Working with Azure daily, this is surprising. Although I suspect I am experiencing slowdowns on storage rather than network.

This slideshow looks kinda incomplete without the story. Is there a presentation video somewhere, or an article?

Funny how these things can have different meanings. Here I read menstruation, threat and what not. If somebody sends this to me, I would instantly think:"Going to donate blood?". This droplet emoticon , or a variation of it, is ve

I work with Azure daily, my company uses tons of IaaS on all cloud providers, very dynamically. I'm mostly concentrated on Azure. First I want to say, thank you for your service, keep it up, there is a lot to be done, but I see progres

Not funny... Yesterday I had a rare occuring bug with something not much more useful than this. The code was written in 2016 in a relatively broad exception handling branch. Took time to understand what's up.

Only issue I have on my OnePlus 3T is Slack. I'm constantly missing or getting late notifications. And I tried fixing the issues with their support, but it didn't lead anywhere. They tried their best, but I can't blame the ph

Yep, I have quite some moles myself and get them checked. Although, thanks to the place I live in, I don't get too much UV exposure and try to protect myself well. That's the thing, I'm not too frightened by the things I can

As someone who has quite unsettling health anxiety and somewhat of a cancer-phobia, these articles kinda calm me. But what doesn't calm me are usually the comments because it seams that cancer is really all around me, and it's jus

If they actually reached the sea they would ditch it sooner. Because of the faulty controls they couldn't orient themselves, and more important, the airplane did not turn the way they wanted it to, and kept jumping altitudes. Because o
