Then he would have published on PLoS instead of getting 300 paper rejections. The cream rises to the top. It's bureaucracy that artificially stops it. Genius happens in spite of it, not because of it.

Maybe a more accurate title would be "... using MICROSOFT apps and tools" Non-Microsoft Windows tools like notepad2 and notepad++ handle unix line-endings just fine. Why do Microsoft's Windows apps refuse to handle them?

I think the main drive of the article is "just don't even try to move here" which is very anti-competitive. Sounds to me like writers in NY have a hard profession, and do not want more people competing with them for lower wag

Being intentionally vague about income metrics by diffusing it among a population. State senator salaries are publicly available, so really more than anything making the point that I'm not some keyboard warrior making $1 over the media

OK, so when they have a section titled "San Francisco is not for you", you pay attention, you read the programming, you accept it as truth, and then you work until you are 73. YMMV. Good for you. Good luck.

_Assuming_ there are no other applicants for the job, you are correct. However, as Jeff Atwood would say, "In theory there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is."

Allowing yourself to take advantage of the fact that you don't have eye-wateringly high, ivy league levels of student debt, and therefore can offer better cost efficiency is a BIG advantage. If you ALSO have massive debt and require ma

I think what I hear you saying is not to take a 30% cut on wages that have stagnated. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying you should take a swing at that $300k/yr 'elite' job, not the leftovers patronizingly
