Now that brain drain isn't required to get a great job, we will finally see a diversity of distribution in talent instead of east/west coast. This will be a good thing. It's completely unsustainable to have talent cloistere

Exposure to smallpox wiped out populations in two continents from no prior exposure. The quoted “not necessarily” isn’t a ringing endorsement. Chickenpox is another example of early exposure/vaccine or very bad things happen.

There needs to be a great deal of introspection in the coming months. About what cultural practices are allowed to continue, and which are not. We need to have solutions for people that rely on dangerous ways of securing food an alternate

Giving up some of the night sky for the billions of humans that live in rural areas, or live in countries where the physical internet is controlled by oppressive governments hellbent on withholding information from its citizens is worth it.

IMO at least some of the problem is the historical laxness with which California has approached drugs. You have decades and decades of drug use being de facto legal to the point where now you will not be arrested for shooting heroin in fro

If you're corrupt, the safest place to be is looking for the corruption. Refund the OTA, staff it with people friendly to you, reset the rules in your favor, now everyone of the opposite party is behind the eight ball. Sounds like a

Barely, if any, difference between the sexes in races at this distance. More women competing mean more will continue to win. Congrats to the BAMF who won.

The first "programming" I ever did was when we had computer day in third day, I bet a kid I could get to a higher level of Nibbles than he could. I read a BASIC book from the library, found the script and changed the START_LEVEL

This is true in all professional sport. After all, it's entertainment, a movie which can change its ending. If something is on TV, it's amenable to be gamed.

Until they can provide some data that say the 50 million number is a fact, I don't believe it's that low. Every breach starts out on the low end, and miraculously ends up being double or triple as they do "more research&quot

IMO all war ever produces is more war. Nobody that's fighting the war on poverty, because if they win, they won't have a job. Terrorism, hunger, poverty, whatever, you name it, when we start a war against it you only make more.

Your paragraph about they "literally don't know how people use their system" seems obvious to me that you must be a 10x mega developer with insider knowledge. Idealist programmers, you're right! Async await offers NO b

Before the internet, centralized places of knowledge were needed, and you'd need to attend that place to find said knowledge. Think about how access to music caused the price of albums to drop. Education had not seen a similar dip in

Ruby is the mainframe of the web. It will be around for a long time, but nobody should start a business built on it now. And just like the mainframe, there will be a select few who make a lot of money at it. IMO most companies will event

I have no idea why so many people choose to give any government more and more power. This is similar to a cultural nuclear weapon. Maybe it will work in the right persons's hands for an agent of good, but really, over the course of t
