   Yes, crimes that are only punished by a fine are "illegal only for the poor".

   Well, think about the number of abstractions on top of abstractions that make up all software. From the bits on the wire, being translated into binary, to machine, to higher-level languages. Then let's talk about frameworks on top of f

   I view the original competitive edge to be the "Warehouse as a Service". Anyone can sell their products without having to own an online store or get the bulk shipping logistics figured out, just ship it in to Amazon, and they can

   I mean, I don't believe that in 2018, we have tried every possible business model in existence. What if I could pay $50 a year to be excluded from their advertising and tracking across the internet? $100? $10/mo? There are absolut

   Well, now that we've found water, getting a sample of that water and checking it for all of those things you mentioned would be the next scientific step.

   Thanks for sharing and making this! I see other books I've read elsewhere on the map (and have this book) so this is very cool to see. How hard was the API to work with? It could be awesome to see "for <my amazon product> sh

    At this point, both of the tech companies I've been at both match the description and were bought private from public. Ancedata for sure, but it can happen. You make money as an employee when this happens, just not a stupid amount of m

    I mean, if we really have this many "perfect on paper and equivalent" students applying, toss out everyone who was less than perfect and then run the lottery on the cream of the crop.

    Happy to chat if you want to talk with a relatively recent grad who has done plenty of interviewing on both sides of the table. My email should be in my profile.

    #2 can be tricky. Since everyone's screens can be of different sizes and resolutions, its hard to have a "perfect" layout that always clips the next bit of content on every single screen.

    I know there are Hipchat bots that can automatically respond to public rooms based on filters. I've mostly seen them in the context of "Hey, we saw you asking about <product we don't support>. Go ask at <the other te

    No, the GP is referring to things like c3 vs c5 families. When you're locked into the 3 year old hardware, you have to pay the cost of upgrading eventually.

    I mean, likely. Given the number of devices they are on, someone has to be using the Battery Historian or similar tools to optimize for power usage.

    Personally, I would recommend a smaller unstable company. At the time, I didn't recognize it as being such (but certainly not Top 4), and I wouldn't have possibly learned as much and as quickly in a less dysfunctional organization

    You have a terminal if you're on a Mac or Linux machine. It takes bash commands by default. Knowing perl is good, but knowing more bash is always good. I hadn't known that <(echo "hi") is treated as a file with the co

    That's a good hero to lead off with. Soulstealer (is the HoN name, blanking on the original Dota name) is a hero with very basic mechanics. Or rather, there's a ranged, AoE ability, an ultimate that boils down to "stand in th
