I'm deaf, and almost every company I've interviewed at which was going to perform a phone interview was willing to either a) skip the phone interview; or b) perform the interview over IM instead. (Even IBM was flexible enough to set up an I

That depends, I would be more than happy if they were limited to 20mph. If they were limited to something more like 40mph, I would just make kids stay the hell away from roads: http://humantransport.org/sidewalks/SpeedKills.htm That said,

Whether or not you believe in the climate crisis or global warming, I strongly recommend all proponents of driverless cars to read The Energy Glut[1] in order to get a good idea of one potential scenario of how America will end up if every

I wonder whether these guys will end up working on increased integration with other acquisitions (e.g., Instagram, assuming that all goes well with the antitrust investigation with the FTC), or potentially even on other other services thems

Regarding #1: "Taking their beautiful hardware and subjecting it to Windows users must have been controversial inside of the company. It just didn't seem like something Jobs would do." -- Having read Jobs' biography, it wasn't something he

I think that this[1] email thread between Torvalds and various other kernel developers sums up the use of goto in C the best. I find that those who think that any given programming concept is "inherently" bad to be dangerous, especially if

I'm profoundly deaf, and wish I had thought of making this post. I've lost track of the number of times I have been put off a product because their only description is in video form. I sometimes forgive start-ups for not captioning videos,
