that is wise, as long as you don't piss off your old colleagues as to not be able to get a reference later. or don't care.

I agree... people like to complain how Google is overrun with recipe spam, but I actually tried a bunch of stuff from whatever Google pointed me to,liked it, and now do a bunch of cooking I wouldn't have done otherwise.

there are still traces left there. Even thought they suffered a cruel fate no doubt, you experience much more of the original culture in Mexico than say in CA, where all this stuff just vanished (or wasnt as big to begin with). And the Yuca

I'm glad to read this and I think these advantages have their place, but... Startups rarely die because of server bill specifically. More often it's lack of PMF, slow iteration, expensive labor. $2M is pocket change for Pinterest,

Yeah this is funny. "Deng’s economic miracle" included many things, like the one-child policy, which came back to bite them now. So this simplistic "Deng miracle Xi dumb" theory doesn't seem to hold up.

You keep saying how typing prevents some "elegant" things (are they really prevalent?) or "iterating fast greatly trumps the need for type safety". But in my experience, anything more than half a dozen modules/class

It's a stupid and tired myth that every successful association must be very tight, military not just economic, with a special new currency, zero differences of opinion between the members, etc. This is a strawman that people like to ki

This. Unfortunately, there is common crawl, there is bing and a million of other ways they could hide/get the data from. Or, just ignore robots.txt, it's not like it's a very honest or transparent operation they run there.

you can easily opt out of that, or control it to your heart's desire (including what snippets to show), and it will be honored. There is no way to opt out of this bullshit. So no, not the same at all.

if you want to give away your data for free, do it, but speak for yourself, not everyone is in position to be able to do it. Just like you can't force other people to give away their software (or anything else, really) for free if they

well in CA at least, we have a situation with housing that grew to be stupidly expensive. So $180k is really not very much. So if companies want to keep people here, they would have to pay up.
