My partner recently applied to quite a few extremely prestigious graduate programs. We're not married and she made $16,000 dollars last year. She's won several national competitions in her field. The main deciding factor for her f

If you just don't partake in the omniscient, pervasive, manufactured negativity in the news cycle and online, America is objectively fucking awesome. I love living here.

So the whole mechanism of capitalism is based on the fact that there are haves, and have-nots, albeit with freedom to move upward. The system literally does not work with everyone being a "have", if that happens, the newly minted

Yes, as an IT professional at a company where a few people have insisted on using Macs, the ABM workflow is by far the most frustrating, half baked product I've had the displeasure of using. People love to complain about Entra/Azu

Would you give it a rest? It's being used here as a colloquial term that's distinct from an actual medical diagnosis.

Yeah, I wasted probably 40 hours of my life on Canonical's interview process and never even got to talk to a person. They wanted to know my high school GPA and ACT score.

In this scenario, how might one become a senior without first being a junior? Seniors just pop into existence?

Sheldon's website is such an awesome relic of the internet we all miss. It still has a ton of relevant information if you ever find yourself dealing with obscure wheel sizes or something like that. Love it. RIP.

Yeah, I was really expecting them to just continue the partnership that Apple announced when the iPhone 16/iOS 18 came out, but I suppose it's been pretty much radio silence on both fronts since then. Although the established stab

And a no soliciting sign is no more cosmically binding than robots.txt. It's a request, not an enforceable command.

It really does seem as though Broadcom is entirely shifting VMware's focus the the top 5 or 10 percent of customers who probably make up the vast majority of the actual profits. The message they've delivered time and time again to

I believe they are referring to the fact that the article states that every crew member survived. As in, none of them didn't make it.

Personally, I don't agree with this proposal. While yes, I agree, that bare excepts are often a source of bugs, I don't think it should be the language's responsibility to nanny the programmer on such things. To me, this seem

First thing that came to mind. I remember in school at least 10 years ago we used it because a teacher liked it. Most of us just used it as a Powerpoint alternative, but a few kids definitely harnessed the extra power available over a gener

I think the point is that this person has spent so much time experiencing this phenomenon on the internet, that the effects are bleeding into reality.

Not everyone spends so much time on this site that they can easily spot a post as an extension of a related discussion elsewhere on the site. Someone posted this page, it got upvoted by others who found it interesting, and now it's on

The sheer functionality of git is amazing. The number of times I have encountered a new situation and used a previously unknown (to me) feature, or (equally as impressive) been able to harness the flexibility of the software to wrangle so

Wow, that n queens implementation is super impressive! I firmly fall into the first category of SQL knowledge, but I definitely know enough to be impressed.

Isn't this already how Android handles app permissions? Each application runs as its own user for the sake of security. The Application Sandbox is a pretty cool interpretation of the long existing Unix user/group paradigm.

Well yes, it makes sense that one could just solve this problem however they choose, whether that be through the programming language of their choice or pen and paper. The whole point of the article is to purposefully restrict the use of ex

It seems like a lot of CS majors find compilers to be the hardest course of the degree, indeed, it was the capstone for my degree. I found it to be quite fun and not particularly intensive once you wrapped your head around each new concept.

This seems similar to the ridiculous questions members of the US Congress asked Google and Facebook employees a few years ago. Law makers (particularly the older, less technologically inclined) tend to view things through the worst possible

I think it's possible to be invested in the performance and improvement of the company you work for without being personally invested in the exact product you're helping to develop.

Who is this article for exactly? It starts off by trying to relate to the reader by presenting the point about learning a new programming language, but then goes on to explain one of the most fundamental concepts of computing, as if the rea

I agree, I don't tend to think they are quite as dangerous as GOTOs have proven to be, but I do understand the criticism. The example provided about their use in interrupt handlers is of particular relevance.

I don't really understand how this is any different from any other social media platform besides the entity your data is being sent back to. Is the Chinese government really any worse than Google, Meta, etc.? I think if you really feel
