That’s a lot of new, effectively, keywords that you’re introducing. I don’t know if that’s a bad or a good thing, but I suspect the community will have a hard time with it. Otherwise this is a creative solution.

Yeah, you can't not tie your identity to your work to at least some degree, but you can invest in other things, like family and friends, that will soften the blow of losing it.

This is deflecting. I was not arguing at all that NYC isn’t a global power and important city. I’ve been in more live able ones though.

I wasn’t comparing New York to any place in the US. It is probably the best American city, but that’s not a high bar.

I have to say that I feel bad for New Yorkers. I live in the middle of the country, but I work for a company on the lower east-side. I’m often in Manhattan, so I think I have a feel for what it’s like there and there is such a poverty of wh

Does the CoC even apply to conferences? Or the rest of the foundation? I thought it was just for the Kernel development process?

Kierkegaard and Nietzsche are the two philosophers who, when I read them, make me realize what a hypocrite I am. My favorite Kierkegaard quote in this vain: "One must do everything for oneself and for God." We are all often "

This is awesome! I think they'll actually get a lot of help with this client. I for one am going to change a few things that I'll be they'll mainline.

Social Psychology has one of the worst reproducibility problems in all of academia. Claims like this make is easy to see why. Simple scientific inquiry into this claim leads me to the question, “Okay, but why? That women potentially harbor

Yeah, sorry I omitted what you just said, but computer science is a theory driven branch (of mathematics?) that can be incredibly difficult to implement as much as other engineering fields struggle to implement new theory breakthroughs in o

More and more I think the word programmer has come to mean nothing and will continue to lose meaning. More and more people need to program for their work and would not call themselves “programmers” (Scientists, Marketers/DevRel, other

I read through NVC, and it is more than that. It would be really hard to prove that any system improved relationships because of confounding variables. You’d need a 24hour judge to make sure that you weren’t violating the “rules” or whateve

At the end of the day China “owns” HK according to the rest of the world, so I see little hope of anything positive happening, especially since Nationalism is on the rise in the West. People like Trump are all to happy to engage in meaningl

Macau has been a lot more strict with mainland Chinese residents. It’s not easy to funnel money into Macau and mainland residents are treated like foreigners. This has led to Macau not being a thorn in China’s side in anyway, as it is not a

One reason it hasn’t been adopted very quickly is because the RFC basically rearchitected layer 3 in the OSI. The network topology for IPv6 changes significantly. It wasn’t just, “let’s make up addresses longer”. Adoption has been slow eno

Is any hedge-fund trying to index private equity? Some of the unicorns, for example, probably merit(ted) being ranked among the fortune 500, but are not part of the S&P 500 index. It would be interesting to see index investing make it&#

So true. So many designers try to be too clever, and bad UI is the end-result. Non-obvious design is excusable proportional to how-often I'm going to use something AND how many steps it takes away from me. Non-obvious design is really

If you're interested in the history of the idea of progress there is a great journal article, by John Gray (Oxford philosopher), on the history of the idea of progress: https://www.jstor.org/stable/20027925?seq=1#p

I think the best argument is that it is impossible to regulate. It's *ing math! Anyone can look up how it works. It will be implemented everywhere and always by the people who need it.

Well that would be the OCR. It’s doubtful they would waste a lot of resources going after a developer, unless they really thought he had done something. Usually they go after leadership.

You won’t go to jail if you do nothing wrong, but legal fees. Ugh, yeah, you’ll be in court as a witness and possibly defendant if you don’t leave ASAP.

My question for you though is, is it much less? Americans have to save way more money for retirement than Canadians. I bet your fully loaded costs are close.

This is changing. I work with Canadian colleagues at a remote-friendly company, and they make the same salary as the folks in NYC and SV, taking conversion into account (most make >200k CD). I also know that Shopify pays very well. Canad

America wasn’t a country yet. There was no country to betray. I’m an American, but, c’mon, a lot of people living in the, now, US saw themselves as British subjects. Sure he joined the revolution, but not everyone who joined the American Re

Good job, my only complaint: Check should have some kind of impact. The king being able to move into check was surprising.

I looked at the comments briefly, then flagged it. The politics of the FSF's decision is relevant and interesting to this community, but that was not what was being discussed, which didn't surprise me at all.

As a web user, I have to say, I hate AMP. I always click through it. Especially on reddit.

I still am convinced that this is people vaping way too much at one time. Cannabinoids are “sticky” oils, i.e. pretty good binding agents. It’s plausible that a carcinogen (in an e cigarette) is binding to them that would otherwise be metab
