Do you speak from experience? Honestly, I find the whole mainframe world fascinating. Would love to learn more.

If you did this in US, the resultant skill cohorts would end up being largely split along demographic boundaries which is extremely unpalatable to modern American social sensibilities. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra

Unkind words shouldn't be a crime in and of themselves - that includes slurs. It makes sense to criminalize stated threats of violence or persistent targeted harassment, but generally free societies should err on the side of not crim

For what it's worth, I do interviews for my employer and we allow candidates to use Google during the coding interview as long as they screen share their browser window. An impressive number of people still fail the interview despite t

I've found German train enthusiast channels to be a decent source of this. Don't have any to link at this moment, but they're out there.

I don't think it's normal, but I do think that a lot more people can/do see static and other visual phenomenon and don't think it's unusual. If it hasn't bothered you so far, don't let it bother you now.

Yeah, just wish I could not See it you know? A lot of people find it distressing, feel like they're losing they're minds, feel depersonalized, etc. It's also not the only symptom, there's light trails, strong after ima

I've had this for a few years now. I'd say the first thing to do is go to a doctor and rule out any more serious cause of the visual phenomenon, e.g. MS, brain tumor, and so on. If that's all clear, then you kind of have to j

Interesting. ReactOS has supported btrfs for a while, it's even an option when installing. Of course, ReactOS isn't really functional as of writing.

Javascript has pretty solid performance, assuming the code is half decent. Honestly, a major benefit of strict/enforced type systems is that it substantially improves maintainability of the codebase. Large Python or JavaScript projects

Hard to say. "Unix" is pronounced like "eunuchs" and yet saw pretty wide adoption. Definitely in a different time and under other circumstances than Linux though.

That's not the point. Lots of of people want kids. If you're a man, you have the luxury of waiting much longer. Women don't have that luxury, it becomes increasingly difficult to have a successful pregnancy after one's e

In the US, improvements/repairs to rental properties are extremely tax advantaged. You might take on debt for the initial liquidity, but as I understand it's easy for landlords to use these expenses to effectively nuke their incom

Downvoted, but I'm not sure why. The demographics question is one that every industrialized country is going to have to face. East Asia and Europe will have to reckon with it first, but the same trends are playing out in North and Sout
