I'll add another: It doesn't matter where you go, until you change, everything will remain the same. edit: For relevant context: if you're thinking about quitting, your alternatives are 1) give two weeks and leave, for anothe

I was going to snark and say "monster.com" Then I went to Mattermark and read about it a bit... could be useful. Maybe a bit excessive to get more than the free trial for a job search, but, for investing, it could be useful.

I agree with most of what you're saying. It's just another point of view, and it might only even seem "bleak" because Gibson is so nonchalant about the worlds he writes. They're futures that the characters just acce

I'm going to guess you're either around 20 and just don't know many people who took up new pursuits in their later years, or that you're late 50s and haven't seen peers put the same amount of effort they put in when

It could be related to post-retirement activities. Men, as a hypothetical, might take up drinking and fishing, leading to an increase in mortality caused by liver failure, cancer, what have you. Women, again as a hypothetical, might take up

Legit question, no snark intended: How well does node scale? It's running in one thread, and from my use (a very small amount of experimentation and reading), it doesn't look like it could handle more than a few hundred concurrent

JS has some kludges. They aren't disappearing in ES6. They might be marked for deprecation in ES7. They might be gone if Javascript makes it to JS8. Most of the really truly shitty parts of js development are caused by the lack of cros

I used to say the same thing. I had the opportunity to work with some decently talented frontend developers and a tech lead with a strong preference for engineering over creative development. I spend a lot more time improving my javascript

I agree with you that 'brogrammer' is saying something with the connotation that the brogrammer is less mature, less intelligent, less competent maybe. Bro-science, though, is something else. It's the kind of thing that'

People have gone to jail for doing exactly what this looks like it could be -- clicking on a link, sent by a friend, containing material stolen in a data breach. I didn't know what was in there. I'm not really interested in findin

There were a few points brought up on a panel discussion I heard this morning, the main ones being: 1) Freeze your eggs at 25, implant them at 35 or 40, and you're still pregnant at 40. You'll have a teenager when you're in y

yeah, they'd need something like a botnet spread out over multiple branches of the internet, to prevent backbone-level shutoffs of the attack, and a metasploit-like framework that could extend the attack vehicle as the number of known
