If you expect to start from scratch several times, I encourage you to separate your logic from your views. Whatever framework you decide to try, make it as thing a layer as possible, and put as much code and functionality as possible in fra

I think you're still missing the point. The goal isn't to eliminate any safety regulations. Those are needed and should be kept. What's being addressed is the situation where various parties in politics, construction, or othe

What's preventing legislation that would keep the same compensation package for cancellation? That the customer did or did not pay in advance doesn't have to impact that.

I think their point is that we can accomplish all the safety needs while only increasing costs and time so much, and that some portion (maybe big, maybe small) of that time is needless bureaucracy. They aren't advocating for more risk.

I think the problem is that some, or even many, would have volunteered if not for the circulated letter. By collectively influencing each others' choices, rather than letting people choose individually without consideration from the

It's not a competition, though. Nothing stopping a forum from having both features. A forum I'm on has the classic-style forum navigation as well as feeds, and customizable feeds at that. Each user can read through the forum in wh

Are they really a "discovery" if they aren't? Seems more like a plain observation.

What if I have a lot going on and need to divide my time? I understand why you're choosing to do this, but ultimately it's assuming a lot on part of the interviewee, and doesn't offer any flexibility. If you gave me such a co

I second this. You aren't just looking for a social outlet, you're looking for grounded advice that will help your product's returns in the short and long term. A consultant is exactly the sort of thing you should be looking

LotR stuff pops on here pretty regularly, though not in big swarms. There's the Battle of Helms Deep analysis series (or something like that) that usually gets posted, for example. I'm sure The Rings of Power (which I assume is wh

An easy way to do that is to use the Pry gem. If you're in a pry console, you can use `show-method Thing.foo` and it will show you the method, which file and line it's defined in, etc. Pry is a great tool and this feature makes is

I've heard it broken down into those two before. It's an interesting take, but one that I don't think aptly describes the "two stories". My own take on "there are two types of stories" is: 1. Something mus

It's relevant, but not quite what's described. Seems like you're addressing the difference between the concept of Social Contract and the concept of Law. The Social Contract is exactly what you described: the implicit permiss

There are two levels to this: 1. Whether it's physically possible to accomplish this. The natural course of the Earth is to enter into another ice age at some time in the future. Is there a way for us to prevent this from happening, wi

We're affecting it, yes. But we aren't controlling it. There are no intended effects and outcomes that satisfy those intentions. Quite the opposite, actually: We're trying to affect it less and finding it very difficult to do

The wording above could be improved for sure. But the intention is to shift focus away from telling somehow how to solve a problem to forming consensus on whether there's a problem at all. And that starts with the reviewer expressing a

Remember to be problem oriented rather than solution oriented . If you just tell people "I think this should be the solution" or "you should change it to this solution", you aren't working with them, you're

Couldn't this be done using git branches? A fork seems like a way to unnecessarily complicate the process of eventually merging things. I guess if the goal is strictly learning and experimenting, forking makes sense. But that requires

The difference here is that you see those ads when you go to the movies, or when you pick up the magazine. You're exposed to them on your own schedule. Phone notification ads, on the other hand, demand your attention with a sound or a

Not familiar with blogrolls, but not quite. The idea is more to have standard search engine user experience, but with the requirement that each result is vetted by someone the user trusts, or trusts by proxy.
