programmers actually need to think sometimes. the jobs mentioned are more routine and rely on soft skills and experience a lot. I do not mean any disrespect by that. mathematicians are also best when they are young, but unlike programmers w

well i mostly bought their titles from bookstores in deadtree format so it does not really affect me. as long as they continue to publish good stuff and the bookstores have their books (which has become more of a problem lately) i will prob

such brutal criminality. landlording has always been shady business, especially when the rent is low, however this is pure insanity. SRO is not very different from the rooms i rent out. it is perfectly possible to do this well and make a lo

yet the norwegian prison system also has its problems. especially with regards to its 'hotel prisons' being antisocial and isolating compared to other kinds of prisons. this article is on solitary confinement. norwegians have some

well that's nice. at least i can call from belgium now when i will be there on saturaday. however if it is true that all the phone bills go up now then it is just a policy that lets poor workers subsidize rich travellers. that is an et

sounds like you did very well. i see so many people who are posting 'you don't sound like a failure to me'. i think saying something like that is basically an insult. im the same age you are and look how many companies i foun

finally i can be rich too! too bad i am not an ios dev. these apps are made by people from 'nam. i doubt you could do this in a civilized country without getting sued into the ground though.

i find the reactions so intersting. a financial analyst no less who does a three month course to become a programmer. product managers who do the same. senior developer in a year. in my country these people make so much more than programmer

this is interesting. i thought i was a bit silly for working to essentially please my mom. maybe its still a bit silly. but sometimes people are silly and act in irrational ways. at least i'm not alone in this.

this is why some sites (foreignpolicy.com) use client side paywalls. most users don't know how to disable them, but google will rank you highly.

although 'toxic' implies some wrongdoing, which is usually not the case, as a guy i would recommend to avoid places like the one i work at. by this i mean businesses where the devs are guys and the only women are found in other (r

Beautiful Code is nice (O'Reilly, various authors). I'd recommend it. It is written in a lot of languages so will help open your eyes to new worlds.

yes, google is too good a salary to leave. for most people. or at least that's what i understand. I consider it unlikely your startup would succeed as like 9/10 do not. being at google is prestige and money. so if you want the mos

most of these assets get you something. like (parts of) voting rights in a company. or the ability to sell those rights at a fixed price at some fixed date. bitcoin just offers you the right to say 'i got 10 bitc'. if you'd s

ponzi scheme is not to be taken literally. people say it because the people creating currencies benefit at the expense of everyone else, without offering much in return. i know more or less how it works and that is why i say this. the found

why does it need to be even a question whether she was overpaid. these ceos always are. in this case even more, because they paid for a big name. names dont produce results, but they cost a lot of money all the same.

i have to say free ice cream does not sound like a bad idea for these overworked doctors. wisdom is useful but ultimately not something you can eat and it wont give you any pleasure.

i am sure you have the right intentions but programmers tend to need some time to get up to speed. besides, nobody really wants to work at a shop like that. every employee will think you don't care. meaning you will have to deal with p
