I'd work a job first. Life is plenty long enough to build a company in your 30s or 40s so long as you avoid getting yourself killed.

Alas, living in emacs can't be appreciated until you get good at emacs. More than the "one-stop-shop" aspect of it, there's the "everything is a buffer of manipulable text" aspect which, again, can't be a

Odd that you chose The Irishman (2019) to evince the opportunity cost fallacy. The toll of that schnoozer can't adequately be measured in dollars.

I'd win three Powerballs to prove I'm really from the future. Then I'd tell everyone that the Internet killed all creativity and wonder, and incite a Luddite conflagration reminiscent of T2's blowing up Skynet's HQ.

It's the Gell-Mann phenomenon. To the general public, he's an accomplished thinker. To your average STEM grad, he's your unremarkable TA who parlayed a second-tier PhD into global name recognition.

That’s why it’s kind of painful sometimes if you have somebody else working on the project. They never code stuff exactly the way you like to see it coded. I remember when we were working on BASIC, I’d go back and recode other people’s sec

This rocks! Well done! I lost of course. I blame my aggressive clue giver! The word 'PIRATE' is often associated with 'RELIGIOUS' symbols like the Jolly Roger. The word 'CELL' is associated with 'ADVE
