Lots of bold, unsubstantiated claims. I think every time there is a big peak, or a big valley, some percentage of people are always peddling "but this is different"

My understanding is that Gates and Epstein were more or less just acquaintances, but it seems you think otherwise. What am I missing?

I'll never understand this sentiment. You don't have to have alerts from slack outside of business hours. Or respond in general. If I responded or looked at my messages every time I got one, I'd never get work done... so I si

This seems like there isn't buy-in to the OKRs across your employer. My company does OKRs and it's taken seriously by VPs as well as the devs. Here, it's very reasonable to say no to something (and have that be respected) bec

A couple of big reasons don't like message buses (but open to hearing about why I'm wrong): -All "requests" will succeed even if malformed -Couples producers/consumers to the bus (unless you put in the extra work to

I think I agree with you - I'm just trying to understand the other perspective from someone that seems to think not having exceptions is an improvement. I've mostly worked using java and go and to be honest I think I prefer except

Aren't you supposed to check all the possible errors in golang anyway? How's that any different than java code being littered with error handling code?

> Why is REST so popular? You think this guy is a hateful hipster, but most of what he says probably resonates with most software vets. To me, it's mostly against the REST zealots who demand REST is done in a very particular manner.

To counter anecdote with anecdote, I've had no issues with coinbase and have found them pleasant to use. That includes transferring to gdax/selling/withdrawing, etc.

Why the downvote? The world is rife with people making claims like this but not putting their money where their mouth is...

If it is so obvious that snap "shouldn't be a public company", then the price would be far lower than the ~$12 it's at now..

To me, this sounds like it's the perspective of a pampered person. You really don't think Amazon opening a campus in a city with stagnating or negative job growth would be good for that city?

Weird, I always ignored the news 'show' but this prompted me to watch it and it had nothing that you just brought up. It talked the Barcelona attack, Bannon getting fired, and a couple of other actually worthwhile things. Granted,

As a recreational player that plays in tournaments from time to time and is active in my local chess community, this post really only exposes that you don't know what you're talking about. For context, I'm not amazing but I&#

Funny, I have almost the exact same experience. Quit my job as a CPA at a big firm to go to a coding bootcamp, made myself put in the same number of hours coding/learning as I was working my old job (70+/week) until I found a job.

I think a related thing people say (that makes me cringe) is that xyz is "just a CRUD app", quite dismissively. You could argue that the vast majority of applications are "just CRUD apps"! Once you get up to a certain sc

Whether it is effective is irrelvant. The question is: Do they have a right to prevent you from copying? If you purchase something, like a video game, I 100% think that no, sellers do not have that right. In netflix's, I think that the

I feel a little disappointed that so far, based on the comments I'm reading, this seems to be the minority opinion.

Because you're not buying shows/movies from them....? You're essentially renting here. I see DRM as generally bad only when it's on things you purchase.

I live in the Seattle area too. I don't know a single person who work/worked at Amazon who disliked it or had any experience like what the NYTimes article described. I like how you just make a blanket statement like "It is ok

I've never heard someone saying that a company reinvesting profits into itself as "suppressing/hiding" profits. I guess all Warren Buffet companies are also suppressing an hiding profits. Are you calling those companies

Why are you saying something like it is always true when it is only true given a certain clause is present? It says right in your link that that's only possible when your employment contract says it's possible. Seems dishonest of
