Ohio as a whole is a definite participation in the Opioid crisis, but to say Columbus is suffering from 'social and economic blight' is nonsense. The city is vibrant and growing, and is handily avoiding the mid-western living stan

I find that most people either rank it first in the series, or somewhere near the bottom with no real in-between. I think it's the finest book in the series, my girlfriend thinks it's the worst. From personal experience, it seems

I'm surprised more commenters aren't noting the racism/sexism/anti-semitism component. By far that's one of the worst parts of twitter - if you follow any prominent women/minorities, you'll notice the kind

I don't understand your recent comment strings - your comments in the John Deere thread yesterday were equally confrontational without anything to really back it up. Confidence in Tesla is high because people like the brand. Panasonic

A nice article, although I feel like a bulleted list of curated advice from Mr. Rogers life is understating and downplaying the insightful life lessons he taught so regularly. For a significantly better read, refer to the following profile

Agreed! It's totally strange when you consider that some of the most revered figures in cs are also great teachers/communicators.

Nice! I always appreciate folks who take the time to blog about introductory topics. There's too much of the 'those who can't do, teach' mentality in software and it's good to see people take the time to do uplift w

I enjoyed that article. Seems to me like power and instability can be just as corrupting for women in feminist oriented business as it can be for men, which shouldn't be too surprising. A while ago I read a profile of a porn company (p

Yes, but it was hard to entirely obfuscate the fact that I designed/coded testing frameworks. Part of my job was running and analyzing big batches of regression scripts, so it would have been disingenuous to pretend like it didn't

I had a similar experience. My first job out of college was for a Developer Role (building testing frameworks, maintaining and building browser extensions) but the job was titled 'QA Developer' so I had a hell of a time the first

Generally I think most devs who use MacBooks disable that option (making it so that you have to press fn to get the standard mac functionality) so that they have better access to the Fn keys. I will echo the sentiment, that there's som

The first was part one of a graphics sequence. That class goes on for at least one more, although I stopped after the first one because it wasn't really my cup of tea. The second was one of the project courses required to finish the de

No way - I used unity for two classes in college, one elective and one non elective. I know of at least 2 more available as well.

I would say it's closer to Firefly than BSG, although tonally it is not that similar to Firefly. There is a definite crew-against-the-world type of vibe, but humor and pacing and focus are more militaristic and thriller based than Fire
