I have watched a manager with a master's degree in computer science pull this BS. At an enterprise technology company. He would go as far as repeating a question over and over until he got an answer he liked. The senior members of his

I'm going to piggyback of your comment, since you're commenting on the website itself: Is there any way to download this podcast for offline listening? I'm looking for podcasts I can listen to while driving without killing my

Honestly, I could understand that line of thinking if he were talking about ordinary members of the public who are utterly unprepared for a life and death situation. (Not saying I agree with it, just that I understand it.) But when we'

Have you ever had someone close to you commit suicide? If so, is that truly a better outcome than undergoing ECT? If not, then I want you to understand this: ECT is used to treat a lethal illness.

Searching with regexes is more likely to be useful when trolling through log or data files than code. Even then, the most common cases for me are searching for a string only at the beginning or ending of a line, or only searching for instan

I was as confused as the other commentators by this post until I realized that fixermark is thinking of analog thermometers with a physical dial, while we (and probably the author as well) are envisioning electronic thermometers with digita

The nation-prefix suggestion could actually be reasonable if Amazon.com Inc. were also limited to its own prefix, say .inc.amazon. I assume that's not what was proposed.

I think they meant that the false votes were all cast from a single computer.

Aha, I missed that piece of the puzzle. Thank you.

Shouldn't preventing this be as easy as turning off autorun? In fact, I thought Windows had that off by default for USB devices. (Of course, I'm assuming we're not dealing with a zero-day in the USB stack or filesystem driver

On the "determine if anything suspicious is happening" front, you can configure Wireshark to capture USB packets and show you what is going over the wire.

I think it's an artifact of luxury cars being designed to optimize a handful of metrics (horsepower, an exterior that "looks good") at any cost. I see something similar with high-end phones (particularly iPhones). Every reaso

If functional programming were implemented as widely and abused as much as OOP is, would it really fare any better?

If you are able to work on something else at the same time, it's free money. More importantly, he probably has a vastly different opportunity cost than you. If all he was doing was watching the TV, why not make a little extra money for

If you look at the mass mailing options that the USPS markets on their website, they ask you to basically buy a whole delivery route at a time. There's no routing and sorting they have to do. The carrier just picks up a stack of letter

There's enough important applications for single use plastics (keeping medical equipment sterile before use, for example) that I'd hate to see an outright ban. However, I think we should be seriously be considering a cap-and-trade

I enjoyed "How not to program in C++". It's a collection of find-the-bug puzzles, and has hilarious war stories at the bottom of every other page.

I immediately thought of Nvidia RTX when I saw the title. "Faster" does not always mean "fast enough".

I think I understand why you feel that way. For people with mental illness, there is a tremendous amount of pressure to hide their symptoms and appear "normal" in public. It's almost a prerequisite to be able to hold down a j

My experience was erratically alternating between not being able to sleep (sleeping less than four hours per night) and sleeping 12-18 hours per day. Either mode could last half a week, or a whole month. Many (most?) depressed individuals d
