It's sometimes seen as a security issue, especially if you are not provided with a company-issued laptop. Or your work may require specialized equipment like beefy machines for 3D rendering or local access to a server.

I wouldn't say that working efficiently with people directly counts as "meta". Productive cooperation with others sounds like a straightforward skill to improve, with no new rules being introduced. Maybe new company/team

Both can be classified as 'anecdotes', I agree, but talking about your work conditions when asked, is a completely different anecdote as opposed to someone not actively complaining when they are with friends/acquaintances.

The difference between having a coding team manager that expects everyone should work 60+ hours and a non-coder who is against it, can be huge. I prefer the latter.

I vaguely remember all of those things as separate phases. - Moving away from IE, I fell in love with Opera (lots of built-in features), most others with Firefox - Chrome comes in, it's Google, it's lightweight, people try it and

> If the guy examines Samsung Galaxy phones, it would almost be the same. This is just guessing. If I have to bet, I'd as well bet that Google/Samsung/ISPs/Everyone is spying on you, but just guessing and shrugging it

Comparing is not judging or blaming. The GP suggests that both TPB and Google are in a gray area, which I partially agree with, but I think they are in different gray areas. TPB, as described, is in a moral gray area - "We know some of

Personally, I think unit tests shine best when you're designing an API. I can swing from hate to love and back about TDD in minutes, but when it comes to thinking about how your code will be used, unit tests (did we stop using that ter

I read the article, but I haven't read the study. The article seems to show that the study is useless - it proves nothing, it's neither pro-TDD, nor anti-TDD. Taking a seemingly strong side of an argument supported by the study, b

This is starting to sound dangerously close to doxing (esp. if anything found is shared), even if it's out of pure curiosity.

Can you please elaborate on that? As of now, it sounds like you left behind everyone you knew in order to change how your taxes are spent.

I guess it's a list that blocks similar things that are "under" ads and only show when you block ads. Soon, sites will just start adding more stuff to be revealed once you block those. It's an endless pit and no one has

I think the comparison got a bit diluted, because the initial mention of a 100 threshold sounds like "pretty much anyone", while LaDue comes out more like a 50 threshold or at least something that feels like middle ground - equall

While joesoap's comment on the article page is hilarious, it made me think - are there any technological issues to providing (nearly) real-time low-res video feed? It would be scientifically useless, so this is more of a theoretical qu

It feels like your last sentence defines what _why was, a beautiful creation.

It is either complying with the censorship or being entirely banned from the country. Perhaps by keeping presence they may help slowly change things. I know it's entirely a business decision, but simply saying "Ok, forget about Ch

Besides the second-class feeling that others mention, those hopes of release in other countries rarely become reality.

I find constructs like isAwesome() && alert("yay"); confusing as well, but in our codebase it's pretty much standard to use a simple falsy check like 'callback && callback()' for optional callbacks,

He also says his wife is Japanese which makes me doubt it's "utterly wrong" to be honest. Care to elaborate/provide sources?
