I founded a company in 2003 and I heard almost every one of these. Some of them from women.

I don't think you explained it well from the boss's perspective. Why didn't he want you to rewrite the app from C++ to Ruby? Maybe it's not just that you did too much work, but that you're making things tougher fo

The "error-free Internet"? Really? The truth is that most engineers are aware of what Agile is. It's a series of principles used to run a software development project. Agile isn't a set of tools or a movement or a meth

How does this compare to the real user monitoring in NewRelic? I know NR is commercial and not cheap, but in features? Thanks!

The article on Al Jazeera's imprisoned reporters was a really good read. I guess I should thank you for sending me there.

I took the admittedly stupid approach of just clicking the link, while at work, with my office door open. As it turns out, it's on the up-and-up, all good, works as expected.

Comcast has it's own netflix-like service. They call it something like Xfinity OnDemand. It's actually not terrible.

This. I work roughly 55 hours a week. I love my work, but I wish I didn't have to work so hard. We're constantly hiring, but always a couple hires behind the workload. Of course, it's my responsibility to oversee this pro

I hate to be the....umm...what's the opposite of naysayer? Yaysayer? I hate to be the yaysayer here, but... 1) The design is great! Simple, fast, easy to read. I understood the point immediately. 2) There's a use for this. I w

I think any project worth doing will have some competition. "competition" can also mean "market validation". I understand you're not trying to get rich off this, but I think you'd like it if someone used it :

Wouldn't this encourage cross-department collaboration? My logic goes like this: Collaborating makes one succeed. But, you don't want your team to succeed, because then you might be laid off. But, people on other teams aren&#x2

Pasting code from a website, even with explanations, worries me far more than someone recording my Internet search history.

If it's on a technical topic, then I say post it. But, we've seen a lot of repetition and hand-wringing on the subject. If it doesn't add anything new to the conversation, whether that conversation is about the NSA or any o

Server based lookups have their own problems. An attacker can guess a session ID and spoof that customer. Storing hundreds of thousands of session IDs on disk or in the database can lead to performance problems. You'd leak huge amo

I'm torn. On one hand, this is delicious irony. On the other hand, the Republicans have used any pretence to tell us that the President is a terrorist, Muslim, non-American, bad guy of any sort. There is no way to satisfy this reque

"Due to this increasing misuse of the service and a desire to keep our community safe and secure, we are deprecating downloads." What misuse? Did I miss something? Lots of pedo-porn or something? Or was it simply people using Google cod

Yeah, I thought that was confusing. "We're the only", "but in some circumstances we're not really talking about everyone". I thought it was worth answering the question "did GM pay back it's loan" because GM is the largest and most notori

I'm not an economist, but this is how I understand it. GM paid back it's debt in full, but it paid most of it back in stock. The US government has sold some of it, so it's gotten about half of it's bailout back in cash. But, it still has

You're right. I shouldn't have busted on plants vs zombies. My point was that Minecraft is a particularly good game.

It's more than that. I have an 8 year old and an 11 year old who are into minecraft. Minecraft is 100x better than other video games. My son is using redstone and logic gates to build things. My daughter designs these expansive cities w

I'm sorry, I found the explanation below the signup page. One-page sites still confuse me :)

I wasn't able to signup. I'm on Firefox under Linux. The landing page could use a little more explanation. I'm not sure how it works.

My mother lost both breasts, her gallbladder and her fallopian tubes to 4 separate cancers. When they discovered the BRCA gene mutations, she was tested and turned out positive. My sister tested positive and had proactive masectomies and

I think you misunderstand. The proposed changes are simply to remove the tax exemption. State sales tax will apply to internet purchases, just like they do for mail order. The confusion comes from the weird sales tax systems in place. I
