Transunion, Equifax, etc all have their own proprietary scoring algorithm which could already be using this data to compute your score. I used to work at one of these places - any bit of data they can use to enhance their score, they will

I've smoked almost daily for over 30 years. Can't tell any difference whatsoever between sativa and indica. It's routine now going into one of these fancy weed places and having them ask me this first and I have to find som

They go out of business. Leadership gets new leadership jobs somewhere else. Pattern continues as long as leadership doesn’t face serious consequences. There are no long term businesses anymore, not past a couple quarters. MBA programs

What exactly is unresolved? You want to convince others eating meat is immoral but feel that your meat eating past removes any standing you have to do that? Why should the general argument be diminished because of one persons behavior? I

They're not high paying enough to offset how unpleasant it is for most people to work in these jobs. Double the salary and you'd see kids flock to these jobs. Continue to make these jobs available to people who are citizens of l

I don't even know what hardware accelerated video playback in a browser is. I've gotten along fine without it. I do keep my laptop plugged in all day. I don't get a desktop because a couple days a week I unplug it to drive

Not OP, but the significant change I see is FAANG can't hire simply to keep talent away from their competitors anymore. Not sure what overall percentage of people working in those jobs were hired for that reason, but they'll like

I was laid off once and didn't find much in common with anything in this article. I had two offers, not interviews, within a day or two of being laid off. Then 2-3 years later, after their outsourcing strategy imploded, they called m

I wonder if their body just has no capacity to heal or regenerate. I’ve kept bees for a few years now and am still very much an amateur, but I’ve never heard of sick/wounded bees recovering from anything. Their bodies are pretty simp

I don't think art comes into it except maybe colors, but even artists use pallets or understand enough color theory to make their own. The discipline should be data driven - study what works and what doesn't, etc. but I don&#x27

Agreed, though often paying (not open source) C projects have much simpler build requirements because the company controls the hardware. Last time I got paid to write C on a non-trivial financial app, all we did was call make with exactly

I think this is important just to get the idioms down that you otherwise only get on the job. Could pick almost any big active C project. I used to do this and I’d see some construct I didn’t understand and consult my K&R book to lear

K&R probably taught more working C programmers than anything besides experience.

Security was considered just as important as it is today, in fact probably more because the default attitude towards the internet was not to trust anything. At this time the only relevant browser was IE, which was hostile to everything not

I think that bar is too high and you can still call this mentorship. It would be exceedingly rare to find someone who is going to mentor someone for free across multiple companies. When I mentor vs. train, I care a bit more, follow up mor

In my long time java shop we're doing pretty much the opposite - using less frameworks and libraries to minimize time spent on constant upgrades to the frameworks and their myriad dependencies for exposed vulnerabilities.

Java EE is an evolving spec and includes basic things like JSON processing, REST, JMS, JPA, even the servlet API itself - these things are very popular in greenfield projects. If you're writing a web app, you're using Java EE unl

Most of the code needs to be re-written because of GTK advancements? Without knowing the codebase myself, I'd expect GTK advancements would be an expected thing and keeping up with them would be more routine maintenance work that a com

A fatal amount of fentanyl could be undetected by a test because the volume is so tiny in the sample. Just dumb to take that risk.

Is this common? I’ve never done this and the only indication I’ve seen are all the people at the gym in Jan/feb. If ‘general malaise’ is common, I’d cut back n the annual goal setting, which sounds stressful.

MPP was the acronym for the pattern. It let us take a binary executable which would normally just be a single PID on one node and it would distribute the PID and all its resources including files across however many nodes you had configure
