It's very true that in the past the Dems have behaved similarly. I used to agree (also a software engineer) that this is a puzzle that ought to be solveable with weighted voronoi diagrams or somesuch but then I read: https://

I'm from NC and was arrested (twice -- for 2nd degree trespass) while protesting these clowns. Make no mistake, the crass disregard for the democratic process on display in NC is a model coming soon to a state near you :( While rulings

You're confusing the Flash player (no xtras) and Director a bit here.

Few remember, but Adobe tried to submit a variant of ActionScript 3 as an ECMAScript candidate but the open web folks were dubious and it went nowhere. That's not the same thing as open-sourcing the Flash authoring tool, but they still

How is the 600 billion spent annually on the military anything of productive value that is in any way significantly different than it getting "pissed away"? It's offensive to suggest more of that money will get spent on enter

The download, parse, and startup time isn’t considered, so while this excellently captures runtime performance metrics, it’s not the whole story. Does your app replace thousands of rows in a table? And yes, I’m questioning the time I spent

But we systematically lock up all the black and brown men anyway. Law enforcement doesn’t give a fuck what they’re actually talking about. Lol Did you notice there was no mention of white supremacist gangs?

WebGL. I spent ~10 years doing Flash / ActionScript and when Jobs nixed the mobile Flash plugin, I figured everything would shift to HTML5 / WebGL. Nope. The era of fancy, interactive websites faded into the rearview mirror. I

To be fair, some of them are morons. There are morons at any organization of sufficient size. I wasn't on the teams handling security, account login / access, etc so I can't speak to specific implementations (nor would I)

I’ve worked for Fidelity and while there’s a grain of truth here, this is mostly horseshit and conjecture. Upgrading SQL or whatever isn’t going to happen without a very good reason because you risk fucking something up in the process. Ent

Paper.js is truly a great source of vector drawing tricks. Curious how difficult it would be to extend this technique beyond two circles. Might have to dust off some old experiments ... :)

I received some advice to omit the first 5-ish years positions from my resume and “reword” the line referring to my 20 years of industry experience. I'm older than my boss and it's definitely a bit scary. YMMV
