Presuming the USA is the only country with nuclear weapons? Does everyone promise to do this and have them nowhere else?

First, understand that he did not make a movie. Someone else did. Second, if someone makes a movie about you, that does not expand your knowledge into wide areas or into depths of world knowledge. Third, no one individual can become an expe

I guess all he needs is to grow his hair long and a beard and HNers would genuflect at his picture in their hallway. Funny how this guy, at age 29 three years ago, is an expert in all worldly things nowadays.

Came here to say this and surprised HN isn't outraged over this obvious oversight.

For that matter, I did this sort of work for decades and, while I knew I was good at what I did, to me it was relatively routine and I would expect most EEs could do the same thing. No, it would not have been years but, without delving into

Apparently it is different in other countries but I agree with you. This is something done by an EE, not a CS person in the US.

In the 1700s, some Europeans clubbed one of my relatives to death. Where's my money?

I totally agree with him. When I first heard of Medium, it seemed to have some well written articles. Then it turned into exactly what he's complaining about. Anyone can throw anything up there and wind up linked to on reddit, as if it

Microsoft was also fined $2 billion dollars by the EU in 2004 for anti-trust violations so it's not just the 1990s. In addition, Microsoft was under US Federal oversight until 2011, but then had it extended another two years for failur

Linux servers are here to stay for a while? Linux, and Unix and BSD, run 75 to 85% of the internet so that kind of thinking is just so wrong.

I run FreeBSD on my workstation since 2004 and am at 10.3-RELEASE right now. I'm a web developer and run several VMs, different browsers, all development work including graphics, as does the staff of ten at my office. FreeBSD has no is

Those "other things" mean the cost of food, paper, cleaning supplies, etc. that make a restaurant run. Those same materials are made by low wage earners who, if given $15/hour, will drive up the cost of the supplies I use, th

I own several franchised fast food restaurants. This article ignores several key points. Robots are expensive and would need to be custom made for each restaurant to replace humans. Also, there would be missing the human touch, making a res

You presume that he needs to change but give no reason to do so other than you think your way is better. He says his is better and a lot of people, including myself and a well-publicized recent article, feel the same way. We think your path

Nothing you said matters cause it has nothing to do with what I was replying to. I was replying to the statement that he "lacks experience" and that is far from the truth.

The author has been a well known, though low key, source since I began in 2004 and I've been following him since. His about page says he's been developing for the web since it began so, no, he does not lack experience.
