I've heard good things about Reactive but haven't invested the time in learning it. I have been using Caliburn for MVVM as it simplifies a lot of WPF oddities.

The official list is a new process. TS was one of the first to go through that process. I wouldn't read too much into it.

Also don't forget refactoring. Try renaming a property with confidence in plain JS. In TS it is simple.

Usually, there are benefits tied to being full-time so I imagine part of this is that people would lose 'full-time' status and then their 401k match, health insurance, etc. Flexible working still implies full time.

I think Swagger is nice--codegen makes it simple to generate API clients for various languages/frameworks. Saves a lot of time and potential sources of errors. If there is something easier/better/more reliable, then I am all

Maybe we shouldn't be mad at Navient then? Seems like the government is the root cause of the entire student loan mess. Basically unlimited amounts of unsecured debt for people that don't understand the implications and are not re

Yes, it is against the consumers. But why do the big companies have it? It certainly costs them a lot in legal fees to have all that fine print. Most of the time it is just CYA for them because they have been burned by lawsuits (some stupid

Well no, a laborer in India and China cannot afford that now but more people have come out of poverty in the last 20 years than any 20 year period in history. http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21578665-nearly-1

If you were running one of those companies, would you sell SUVs that make you 10k in profit each or an equal number of small cars that make 2k in profit each?

Wages are rising significantly in the China, India, etc and are catching up. Nobody really knows what will happen once all of the labor that is extremely cheap now is not as cheap. We can conjecture that their will be some upheaval, but nob

I agree that the student loan issue is a big problem. If people tried to get a mortgage, they would be required to back the loan somehow and show income that can pay it back. With student loans, there are no such requirements and people can

I think you are looking at the past a bit optimistically. First off, many houses in the past were MUCH smaller. I know people of the WWII generation that raised their families in working class Detroit neighborhoods. They were considered mid

I'm totally onboard with UBI if it is actually needed. The problem is people PROJECTING that it will be needed. In the current world human labor is very much in demand. Maybe people won't be able to use the specific degree that th

I see Donald Trump and Brexit more as a protest against the status quo--which does not mean that the entire system is terrible. It could just mean that people want reforms that benefit the public good and not just some Senator's home s

They need to change zoning to allow office space, restaurants, etc in some areas where there is just houses.

They don't even need to say no taxes in certain areas. All that has to be done is allow other uses in residential areas. An area that previously just had loads of houses could then have a commercial building. Businesses would do it bec

What about the personnel costs? Also, what about the instantaneous bandwidth. If you have huge demand spikes where you need a lot of bandwidth at one time, can your system handle it?

Also can be very expensive. If another IT devops type costs 100k per year. How much will that buy in cloud services and time saved?

That's partly because of safety regulations making it have anti-spill features.

The toilets in the US seems to clog more easily than toilets in other parts of the world. I don't understand why America hasn't figured this out.

A fair critique although Microsoft is also a government contractor. I suppose the difference is that their income is not entirely dependent on the government.

Palantir makes an analysis tool. Excel is also used for Intel analysis. Does that make Bill Gates evil? Poor click bait article that starts off with personal attacks and is completely meant to sensationalize what is basically a souped up MS

Well, this post was a marketing post, not a product release. Product release posts in Azure are much more informative for a dev that this post.

I've found that working all in one place can lead to "over-meeting". What I mean by this is the tendency to have meetings for the sake of meetings and people not having time to get stuff done because they are stuck in meeting
