If it used macros I bet that had some effect on the ranking. Macros and CLOS are two things that really take some time to sink in and understand for programmers that don't use lisp much.

I agree with the above asbestos and lead stuff. Even tobacco had the same thing going on when they knew well in advance it was bad. Most people only care when it affects someone they love. When I see big cell towers next to or on top of pla

Some of the other noises I hear are microwaves, humidifiers, outside noise (when the window is open), the grunting printer and the constant gargle of the water cooler.

A better way is to wave your hand in-front of them. It is a visual clue and as long as it in their view it allows them to finish without the monitor being blocked. I like it but that is my two cents.

I used to be this way. I found that working in an editor using asciidoc/markdown is way easier for me. Copy/paste is faster than pen/paper. Also, I can write down notes and snippets of code to make life easier when I am tryin

My personal love for Rails is recent. I had been trying in my one to two hours of spare time on weekends (I am busy with exercise/family/gaming/etc) to build a simple website for my wife's company (simple crud stuff most

If catering to older browsers, developers that aren't familiar with JS build/release tools or the latest fad/buzz then jQuery is still viable. jQuery used to be the easiest way of getting things done but now it is more of a t

As for security, as laurentl suggested the OWASP is a good starting point. From there look at all related security requirements of the country your project/product will be subjected to. For scalability, pick a good database and get rea

My high school was like that. The top ranked students were rich foreign kids. I remember the validictorian giving his speech and no-one could understand what he was saying (in grammar and speech).

I think this is good because it doesn't force customers to use cashless payment. Research has shown that when people don't see physical money being spent that people tend to spend more. However, I live in a country and with lots o

I don't think as of this moment in time there are too many people in the world. However, the problems of work/food/water/housing seem like a population problem but it is more of a resource allocation problem. I think hum

I have seen this happen to people I know. They don't have bad personalities or bad habits, etc. From what I have seen it is sometimes that the jobs dried up or were in places they couldn't move to (big mortgage, kids and family ca

I have lived in Japan for the past 6 years and smartphone addiction is high. Mostly eldery people are the only ones reading newspapers or books. I've seen them just looking at nothing (falling asleep while playing some stupid game). Th

I used to work at a car dealership so my opinion/information is going to come from the years I worked there. The usual title stuff has been gone over. 1) Buy domestic if possible. Parts, service and mechanics will be cheaper for the mo

Two things I love to do for monotony are: 1) Take a random stroke from a pen and use that as starting point for making something interesting on a piece of paper. Sounds silly but it is fun and I have had a couple of people ask for them when

I agree with cycling. The weather conditions, traffic and even the route can be different each time you get on the bike. Heck, getting a flat tire breaks up the monotony really well (also gets me using creative words in the process of getti

I love use the index luke. Some of the best query advice I can get when I have to get something done faster. Personally, the most important part of getting advanced with SQL is being able to vizualize the DB in your mind and how the query

As for programming language I would say Javascript. However, web development is more than programming because it requires document structuring (HTML), document styling (CSS) and document dynamics (JS). All three are used to produce websites

I agree about needing more food prep than surgeons. It is like that scene from Office Space where the whole question of what you would do with a million dollars helps you decide what you should do for a living. Everyone wants to be rich and

I agree with so much of this. I think the only real thing holding back a limited javascript world is javascript becoming a limited/disabled majority. I don't think it will happen because so many businesses rely on the interactivit

I understand this feeling of CSS being some kind of black magic or something that just doesn't play by the rules. At almost every single place I work it feels like I am the only one who has a real grasp on CSS and makes stuff happen. M

Well, they do have evidence of Japanese emigrating to Hawaii and getting standard US health problems. Also when US fast food became popular in Okinawa the young people who ate it regularly developed US health problems. (Plenty of videos on

I eat loads of sweet potatoes but my favorite recipe is to put them in my curry. Sweet, salty, spicy.... It blows regular potatoes in curry away. I cook the purple ones hot rock style and eat hot or cold if it is summer.

My experience has been about the same. I don't think it got me any interviews/jobs but it hasn't hurt me to put it on my CV. It simply gives the interviewer something to guage where you are coming from in terms of style and k

Ageism is real. The older I get, the more and more I see it with my eyes. I have seen people denied jobs purely on age and have to work for peanuts because of their age (old or young). I sometimes fear the future because we are all getting

Have you tried spinach and other leafy greens? Loads of protein, fiber and other nutrients. Also you only need the essential amino acids and not whole proteins. All protein is equal as plants contain all the essential amino acids. Also sinc
