I think 'disrupt' is a candidate for embarrassing corporate buzzword of the year. It sounds like PR-speak for being cool and edgy and running against the grain.

Definitely not the case for me. I started programming with BASIC on my C64and that was just endless copying from books. I assure you I learnt nothing from it - not something to be proud of (I was just starting out), but it goes to show tha

The worst problem I had was if the front of the mouse brushed up against the cable as I pushed forwards - I'd be unable to click because the cable was underneath. This sounds like a whiny, first-world problem, but when it happens a few

As a brit, I agree with that sentiment. It comes across as passive-aggressive way to tell someone you think what they just said is utter nonsense. You heard them just fine, but you don't like what they said, so you exagerrate your reac

I'm interested - what are each of your to-dos? Are they like, articles to read or are they actually specific pieces of work, say like, a wordpress page to edit?

Theoretically, do you think CloudFlare would hire Xah Lee?

I'm inclined towards this thinking also. Not learning crucial skills is just lazy and self-centred. I've met amazing devs with no social skills because they didn't want to put effort into learning anything except what they en

Speaking as devil's advocate, it might just be more convenient to steal the data. Maybe I want to use your data casually once, and I don't want to sign up and give you all my contact details and subscribe to your annual plan with

It depends. When I'm at the cinema deciding what to watch, googling the title with 'imdb' is quick and easy enough as a general indicator.

You should read 'Guns, Germs and Steel' by Jared Diamond. It's a very interesting book about how the civilised world came to be the way it is, for example, why Europe discovered America, and not vice versa. http://

Personally, I prefer well rounded candidates with decent life experience (because we are biased to what we see in ourselves). I'd rather work with people I can talk to about lots of different things, not just coding and work.

Any chance of a blog post on this? I love your articles on inner workings.

No one's dropped the ball - everyone's ignored it as someone else's problem as it's a maintenance issue, not one for direct profit. Same as for the y2k and and IPv4 problems. Outside of IT, it's probably the same fo

I suppose if you want to answer a question you have to understand the context, and as with reproducing bugs, you have to know the steps to recreate the problem. It's not like they're being purposefully obnoxious - no more than whe

QA, design and management is where I've noticed a greater proportion of women outside of HR. What is it about those roles which makes them amenable to women but not tech?

Having been a contractor for several years now, I have to admit I've never seen any sort of bullying. I've never been treated like anything less than a bona fide member of the team. To be honest, I've never seen any sort of b

Yeah - you throw an iron and your clothes into a drum which you can spin by pedalling. The idea is only a prototype, however, and might need some fine-tuning.

I think I've seen two other reports of thefts involving this particular make of violin here in London in the past year or so. It really is a very high profile instrument.
