SEEKING WORK Location: NYC | Remote I've been a software generalist at a variety of startups, some in their earliest stages helping to craft their ideas into MVPs (PeerMedical, ClimaCell, Odyn) and some in their midpoints helping to re

Humans have an incredible way of elevating their universal importance to hold the conviction that an alien species capable of receiving such a message and actionably responding would have any desire to do so, let alone that the loss of one

This is a world where giving money to a company is an inherently political act, even if you do not know it to be. Each dollar spent at Amazon is a tacit endorsement of its business, labor, and greater economic practices, and for one to deta

Every time I see this blog I'm extremely interested in the content, but the stylized presentation is so jarring and tough to read. I doubt this is an original qualm and I'm fully able to switch to reading mode in Firefox to mitiga

The US government routinely monitors purchase and search histories to prevent the active ingredients of something destructive like that from falling into nefarious hands, and you're posing a wholly disingenuous argument

Life certainly has a good chance given the existence of deep-sea bacteria, tardigrades, and cockroaches, but the human species has a relatively narrow set of conditions that must be met for any sort of longterm survival.

When they opened a brick and morter store in Boston, I remember walking in with a real sense of excitement but walking out without any interest in becoming more involved in the 3D printing scene. If anything, seeing the printers in action m

Perhaps this teacher was looking more for thoughtful analysis and insight rather than pedantically seeking out minor grammatical errors.

One company I worked for relied heavily on code reviews after every feature. At least two co-workers (one of whom had to be a supervisor) read, ran, and gave feedback on every piece of code. Reading others' code and providing feedback

I really love Zeal, but I wish the documentation files weren't being hosted from Dash's servers. If Zeal were available on OSX I'd use it in an instant.

Fabian Sanglard's exploration[1] of Doom3 is much more in depth than this article, though the author does quote Sanglard's analysis albeit with a small source link [1] http://fabiensanglard.net/doom3_bfg/index

I enjoyed using xfce as a nice desktop environment around a tiling window manager (bspwm), I'm sure i3 would plug in similarly.

In my experience, the only people who send text messages this way are the parents of children who have a cell phone. Text abbreviations were used at a time when typing on a phone was difficult, but now that we can use our thumbs to type (or

This is certainly frustrating. I can't believe how close the author got to providing some positive reinforcement before missing the point entirely.

Well if (I assume) you're coming from the mindset of how US prisons treat their inmates, expecting prisoners to be treated with any kind of humanity at all would certainly seem rediculous.

Painkiller is based along similar lines but retains Doom's darker demonic palette whereas Serious Sam is very light-hearted and colorful. A number of people have mentioned that it is essentially what Doom 3 would have been if ID hadn&#

I think any version control software needs to address the simple fact that humans will rush through writing and committing code in a way that they may later regret. Dealing with an ugly git log is less trouble than not having versioning sof

Are there any applications or libraries that you would say follow these practices really well? Seeing basic examples was really helpful, but a more expansive project that employs these elements would make for good reading.

I like the general idea, but when I switch from one radio to the next, the audio seems to continue playing so I hear multiple stations at once.

Well, the general upside to googling for an answer is that often when someone is providing you with the numeric solution they are also describing their algorithm and implementation. Having it in plain text right on the local hard drive migh

Having a --cheat option seems like a poor decision. Having easy access to every solution (especially as it exists in a plain text file) harms the experience of struggling through a problem until the correct answer is reached.

Reddit is wonderful for fostering fringe communities and inspiring others to become a part of a subculture, whatever it might be. If you're comparing it to fb, tw, or ig, you've already missed the point of its existence.

Its enhancements are amplified by the context in which it's used. If you are a frequent user and tend to use it when trying to relax, that will be the mode your body associates THC intake with.
