If bicycle helmets were essential for causal-speed, safe path, everyday bicycling, the Dutch would use them. Interesting fact: in the US, riders without helmets receive more average buffer space from road vehicles than those with. If you&#x

So my database course used a proprietary database hosted on-campus with IP ACLs. I setup a proxy on the campus cluster and mirrored 90% of it before the lecturer turned it off. I don't understand why they would even look, much less car

Supply & demand. Pay more, and it attracts more and better employees. Care facilities rake in tens of millions, they can afford to pay more. I think the US needs massively better immigration customer service and expanded visa programs t

Group brainstorming is useful for creating a domain set of ideas to test and kill, especially if a simple-ish or vague problem needs to be solved immediately when optimal soon isn't required. Multiple people together can sometimes crea

OAuth is trivial because of libraries. Hashed database secrets are also easy. Rails is mindlessly-simple. Django isn't bad either. There are CMSes that can provide these too. The problem is people don't want to know anything about

That's a skills and lack of software (CMS) problem, not a blame-the-tools problem. Dumbing-down the web is a dumb idea. It's dumb enough already and shouldn't be any dumber.

Unpopular observation: if an ebola-deadly, vaccine-effective variant comes along, it would hopefully wipe out enough of those who are too dumb to take care of themselves or impetuously refuse vaccines. Modern life and medicine is too safe t
