You like Apple's hardware but not its OS. I think there are better compromises out there, but of course, feel free to do your thing.

I don't understand it either. I can't begin to list the comforts and options that come from being rich. Guess we all know. There's really no alternate reality where it's much better to be average and have little or no op

There's a genuine reason why machine learning seems to be the Holy Grail - man has dominated this planet, solved his problems and overcome challenges by his intelligence (ability to learn and adapt). Bequeathing these same abilities

I don't think we have enough information (or even the professional capacity) to advise you wisely for the best expected return. So many unknowns here; for instance, > what d'you mean by ex-founder and by what corporate action

I basically outline what's important to the business (per development cycle and complexity) and try to stick with frameworks whose devs are explicitly wary of breaking changes. Based on these, my stack is simply React/Redux on the

I fail to see how the UK's policy is better. For starters, its a government policy which can be revoked at will. Change.org is a for-profit entity whose objectives are clear and cuts across government and private enterprise.

Considering how long you've been here, it's really disappointing that you could bring yourself to write something like this on HN.

Outcompete Amazon (especially) on prices? Waiting to see who'll achieve that feat. That aside, there's a cost threshold beyond which it wouldn't makes sense to offer cloud services at such ridiculous prices. If anything, I a

Not really. The direction is clear; C# evolves with the times (still, the only version to have broken backwards compatibility was 2.0 because of Generics - which was/is a good thing) . Currently, it's at the very base, an object o

WSL is the best thing since peanut butter. Recently moved all of my dev command line work to the Subsystem. Even better, VS Code integrates it perfectly well.

Bash was spectacularly intuitive while I was learning it. And err, ending a conditional `if` statement with `fi` is probably one of the most intuitive linguistic constructs ever in CS; no need to analyze whether we should end it with `end`,

Take on bigger technical challenges and keep a notebook for writing down new concepts you learn along the way. Of course the notebook could also be in software. But write. It'll help you internalize stuff.

Expand your experience with C#, Python and JavaScript. Nothing gets past those three (you could add SQL to the mix). Take on as many projects as possible, preferably with increasing technical (not business) difficulty. If you plan on starti
