I'm not directly experienced with this (most of my work is internal) so I don't know exactly how it works, or if they use Skype explicitly, but my company makes quite a few calls with other organizations. At worst, it would be pos

To be the boring voice here... Skype for Business. The calls themselves are fine, but the applications are garbage. I'd advise against the platform. Haven't tried MS Teams yet.

This isn't even a problem that's limited to hiring out of schools. I went to a pretty small school in flyover country, and (much as the article outlines) the hardest part about getting a job was certainly not the interviews, it wa

Maybe I'm just a crazy millennial, but I absolutely loathe the idea of FB / Insta stories. Snapchat going under wouldn't convince me to move over -- I'd just stop using the service and move on to communicating some other

Really? Does it? "Find a person, learn about each other's personal lives, gradually escalate," sounds like some 'the red-pill' nonsense to you?

A lot of people already own headphones that are usually more comfortable / sound better than the standard Apple earbuds. I suppose it's not "can't", but "won't."

I haven't taken a look at the Spark codebase, but it is very easy to write Scala code that is not purely functional.

I used to hold this viewpoint until I watched a video (I can't seem to find it now) that made a pretty good point. The point was something along the following: "I like book stores. I like going in and flipping through the books. S

The chromecast isn't necessarily something that brings revenue on its own -- it just lowers the barrier to entry for Google's other services. If it's easier for you to watch youtube, play Google Music, etc. on your TV, it

I feel like I'm the only one who is annoyed when people plug their products in someone else's post. I understand you're just trying to increase your userbase, but it just seems disrespectful.

Ironically, it's unclear whether you're countering the comment's argument, or the article's argument. "Use vi, nothing beats it." == "I use x and I like it just fine." If that was your intention, my m

This is one reason why I really like Neil Gaiman. His works tend to be on the shorter side and self-contained, yet still managed to be quite entertaining.

This is interesting. With the prevalence of windows in the corporate world, I could see this catching on. The biggest issues I think are going to be: the market share of W7 and under, and cost. I could also see it do horribly, ala the origi

Haskell is an amazing language. I've only spent a brief amount of time with it, but I've seen what others can do with it, and I'm very impressed. That said, I don't know that I'd recommend it to someone who has just

Reading this makes my skin crawl. I'll admit -- I only got about half way through before I had to stop. The disposition of the author is entirely too sardonic for my tastes. He's locked himself into an endless spiral of hatred and
