I use DBeaver a lot, it's a great tool, their sales approach is mind boggling however. It took me several days to buy a license.. what the hell!

This is super interesting. Thank you! I'm off to read more.

As an engineer, I hear it used all the time in contexts outside of Flash. It's extremely common.

Yeah - I agree. Large centralized institutions do tend to work this way, but it's not a requirement, although it's always a struggle to keep the administration from pushing this route because it's easier even though it gives

Thanks - I'd be interested in your alternative explanations if you're willing to comment here? I know it's never simple, and often even just timing is a factor in markets. Sounds like you've given it a lot of thought tho

Yeah, in the current market you're correct, but we should be concentrating on creating an excess of cheap power (carbon free of course) rather than conserving.

Nuclear is on par with solar as far as safety. https://ourworldindata.org/safest-sources-of-energy

It's mostly expensive due to artificial reasons. If we invested the effort we have in renewables into nuclear, the price, availability and reliability would increase in a similar fashion.

Worked with unions before - some are definitely better than others and some are really great at their jobs, efficient and good quality work. Some are REALLY bad - all the slow inefficient protectionist BS you hear about, they're defini

This is negotiating. Take it or leave it represents a choice. Where I live, which is obviously privileged (California) the workers have a huge advantage currently with this choice.

If the job is too big for one person, then yeah you probably break out into more specialized teams, but I don't see frontend/backend being too much for one person to understand and do good work on. Some systems are just too big fo

Agreed - being a specialist in my experience is far too limiting. I'm pretty good in a more than a few things, and have passing experience in a lot more. I can always find good paying work that interests me.

As an engineering generalist I have more opportunity and get paid better than most.

This is true - hunger rates are rising since about 2015, but the link to climate change isn't singular. War is very influential, and the leading spots where you see hunger - Somalia, Yemen, Iraq, Sudan, Nigeria, Syria are known for the

Global crop failures is pretty far fetched. Even the IPCC lowers the projections every year. Not a denier in the least, but we have over-estimated the impact in a huge way.

I just tossed some seeds in the dirt on the side, and now I have a giant tomato plant like 3' high.. pretty cheap unless you're in an apartment I guess.

No one is particularly rational. Reasonable is maybe 50/50 at best. We can strive though.

As a user of Linux on my daily driver I recently received a machine with windows 10 for a work project. I've been using it about 50% of the time for the past 2 months and I'm missing Linux big time. It's slower on better hard

WebOS was great on the phone I had.. forget the name. I really wish it had gotten more traction. Easy for webdevs to build apps for, and still would allow lower level access for games and such.. by now it would of been really dialed in and

I know a couple people who didn't get anxiety issues until they started smoking. I think there's a portion of the population (not necessarily you) who feel they need it when the anxiety is actually just a weed hangover. It definit

You don't need everyone shopping around. You just need enough to drive the market, it isn't even necessarily a majority.

Sure it is, he's addressing a specific question that is theoretically testable. This is the same question that gets asked of drug developers as well - There's the efficacy question AND the harmful question. Does it work? (not what
