   Ask people more thoroughly. A lot of people in my circles have had vague symptoms like itchy throat or eyes, vague chest discomfort, general fatigue. I would say the 40% sounds about right.

   I've wanted a protocol reference site for years, listing different network protocol dumps and examples. In fact, I bought pdumps.com and set up a wiki for it, but then the site got hammered with spam so I shut it down. I have been thin

   All rents follow a standard model based on a number of parameters, but it's purposely constructed to enable lower-income household to aquire apartments in attractive locations. At the time of inception, the construction was considered

   I don't think that's true. The private renters also have to abide to the regulated market prices, so you cannot buy your way to a rental apartment. Not unless the renter is breaking the law, that is. I admit that I pulled the 20 y

   I'm from Sweden and I've consulted a lawyer regarding a similar clause in my employment contract. That firm suggested that it was enforcable, and more so the closer your "invention" is to the business of your employee. T

   Swede here. We have a largely regulated rental market throughout the country, stupid as it is. In my view, this is an old remain from bygone times, but for some reason it is romanticised by many. With this system you have to stand in line f

   The system is gating the specialists way too much. But the actual care once you are there is usually very good. Private insurance often just gets you past those gates.

    Wait what? I live here too, and many employers do pay for private insurance because it saves heaps of time for the employees. Why do you think the private options sprung up in the first place? The public system has serious flaws. I was told

    Is the article suggesting to apply a string CRDT to an entire JSON structure? Are people doing that? At the very least, I would expect different JSON data types to use different CRDTs. For a collaborative model, I would expect the semantics

    IMO the business school of though is the one which is currently hindering progression, holding on to values from the industrial revolution. It's as we all know a philosophy of top-down management of expendible resources. This way of th

    Sure, that gives you working binaries. But also security problems, because you don't control which versions of libraries you are using. Suddenly, all individual software packages must do their own security updates to keep the system se

    It does! It's the numerical "null object", just like the empty string and empty collection.

    In my experience, forbidding null refs usually only results in getting null objects instead, such as empty strings or empty collections. Thats not bad, but might not solve such a silent error message, you'll still end up with an empty

    Sure it's up to the language design, but in practice a `None` gets a similar treatment as an empty collection, usually effectively short-circuiting remaining calculations. As the parent poster pointed out, this might either be the beha

    Arena style allocation helps. You still get the allocations, but GC is cheap. IMO both Java and the CLR are in desperate need of multiple heaps with separate GCs to solve these problems. One big heap simply doesn't scale well. Erlang i

    Having a steady stream of deliverables and seeing that the devs can deliver on their promises, enables management to shift from control to guidance. That's not to say that it always happens, but I've seen it work. Getting developm

    Sprints exist so that both management and devs can realize that there is more work than there is time. It forces devs to be focused and scope their work. It forces management to prioritize and scope down as well. Keeping the deadline of the
