I think I’m one of those people you are talking about. I don’t hang out in a secret place. I hang out here, subreddits for languages I’m interested in, many Slack groups for things I’m interested in, iMessage/SMS with current and previ

How much does visual voicemail cost? I've never really noticed any significant fees on my bill related to it.

Maybe so but cell service would still be nice.

by todd3834 7y ago
If you know there is no cell reception and you do it anyways you might have a point but I thought we were just talking about reasons why cell service could be a good thing. Wanting cell reception doesn’t really make someone dumb.

Who said anything about leaving the main highway? Is AT&T trying to provide signal where they know nobody will ever go? That sounds odd. I assumed we were talking about places humans go

by todd3834 7y ago
Yeah that’s one way to deal with it. Another is if there is cell reception then it’s not such a big deal because you can call someone if it happens. Definitely two possible solutions.

Sometimes you have to drive through Death Valley to get to other places and cell reception is kind of important in a place like that. Imagine having a baby in your car, it breaks down with no cell reception and it's 130F temperatures o

Wouldn’t it use much much less natural gas though?

I found something that works really well for me. I don’t wait until I “find” time to do the things I want to do. I create a calendar and a routine and I “make” time for them. This also allowed me to have a conversation with my wife about th

I thought this had something to do with Rob Pike. Like maybe he was forking Go or had a new idea for a language.

I believe it has a lot to do with history. You can pick a stack that costs money or a stack that is free. .NET might be great but is it so much better than the free alternatives? It’s a hard sell. As others have noted, it sounds like it mig

An alternative perspective: - Chat apps have been around for a while but now that Slack has been so widely adopted working remote has become a lot easier. - Screen sharing for pair programming where everyone has the client installed and we

Someone once told me that a lot of the big navy ships run on a customized version of Windows XP! Can anyone here confirm?

I always wondered why they are not trying to compete with Amazon in selling books online. I know they also sell books online and I know they have the Nook but I don’t think I have ever bought a book from their website. Is Amazon executing s

I would argue that the developer’s job should be to determine whether or not supporting users without JavaScript would generate more money than it costs to maintain. It’s going to depend on the target audience and what you are developing. F

With semantic versioning each time the major version changes it signifies a breaking change. If you have an application that breaks from one of those breaking changes you may not see it as a business opportunity to update because it “works”

Correct me if I’m wrong but stuxnet was designed for a purpose and it accomplished that purpose. Eventually being discovered was no doubt an understanding from the authors. Compare that to unauthorized access to a machine and cleaning the l

I fully assume there are more hacks we don’t hear about that ones we do. Not only because of cover ups but it can’t be that hard to cover your tracks if you know what you are doing.

I was heavily involved in the startup scene all through my 20s, now in my 30s and still loving it. Turns out you can both be involved in tech and startups in your 20s and have it be the best time in your life. Everyone has different interes

I never said I hated the language but I do think almost every other alternative language I’ve used since doing full time PHP has been a better experience.

I’ve never read a blog post about why PHP sucks. I wrote PHP for many years and it wasn’t that bad but compared to the alternatives I would never go back. Also tormented by all of the Wordpress plugins and template hacks that I got paid to
