I'm sorry you feel pigeonholed and disturbed. My "tend to prefer" statement seemed like a pretty accurate way to describe the increased proportion of more conservative individuals in older generations. I don't know how e

I vote every year. Local and state politics tend to affect me more directly than national politics.

by tylerritchie 7y ago
It sounds like you're making good choices for your mental health. It also seems like taking that approach to the extreme by checking out of politics entirely (e.g. not voting, or uninformed voting) is a great way to delegate really imp

There's no shortage of developers, but big tech companies are attempting to increase the supply of developers to reduce the cost of developers?

No. Sinatra [1] is more like Flask. Rails has session management, forms, ORM, and simple authentication all built in (as well as asset compilation, schema migrations, websockets, asynchronous processing, file uploads, etc). Models do not co

reddit gold _has_ to be one of the better "replace ads with subscription" offerings out there. It's $2.50/mo which is far more reasonable than NYTimes' $9.99/month. Not that running a news organization is inexp

I think he's trying to accomplish being an asshole, he's succeeding. The whole thread is terribly saddening. It's a breaking change, they have a process for making breaking changes and the creator of PowerShell specifically s

That's too bad: Steve Chamberlin appears to have taken the post down probably due to unwarranted "UR DOIN IT WRONG" in his page comments. There are a couple other comments [1] [2] that touch on this. But it does seem like the

That's silly. That's like saying any brick and mortar small business doesn't accept "credit" because they use a payment processor to process their credit cards. Or that places on the Canadian border don't &quot

This is interesting, I don't particularly like the tone, but I would love to see a graph of (even relative) app downloads with the release of 1024 and announcement of 2048 (and all the various forks) on it. I bet there's an effect

Realistically, it's money they'll use to buy the Stewart's Calculus ($200) [1] (which, let's be clear, is covering 350 year old subject matter). And then they'll use their financial aid to buy beer. All of these int

As a perspective from a biologist who was a student and took calc I'll give my impressions. First jkimmel's comment about keeping track of pages I never found to be the case. I can keep track of all of my course pages, that's

I don't understand the commenters saying that it's cool that a large company flush with cash shouldn't be expected to pay for copyrighted works it uses to make a profit. I'm a biologist, not a lawyer, but it seems like o

I probably came across a little too harsh. I think Inkling is awesome, I'm just still grumpy at publishers. In the case of Campbell the a la carte Inkling prices are such that a student can get 60% of the book at the point they reach the

This seems like an interesting attempt on O'Reilly's part to justify an electronic price greater than the print price (as of today at Amazon). I will fully acknowledge that the potential utility of an electronic edition of this style of boo

I'll admit that my understanding of all literary forms isn't very complete, but this doesn't appear to be satire either. Satire is all about pointing out flaws and exploiting them for humor. This is just a not-true story that would be funny

A plain ATM carc might be very difficult to use to get money from your account in developing economies. We had issues with our MasterCard debit cards in Nicaragua. "Visa, accepted everywhere," I always thought, "Yeah, and everywhere Visa

All new major debit cards come with the same ability to chargeback and coverage for bogus charges. But as mentioned elsewhere the major difference is that the debit card uses your money for a transaction and the credit card uses the bank's

There are usually quite a few positions for programmers in polar areas. Checking the Ecology and Geomorphology lists I don't really see any right now, but they do exist. If you're serious I'd shoot hr@icecube.wisc.edu an e-mail and express

Yeah, I hate it when someone takes data someone else has curated in their native tongue and then makes nifty visualizations with it. Clearly, he should have gone and tracked down, translated, cleaned and digitized the relevant shipping logs
