It's about control. Some people feel a public utility is closer to everyone's control, as they feel we have a good reign on our government. Others feel corporations are closer to everyone's control, as anyone can start an opp

The notice of complete retirement is good, it's the notice of deprecation that is poor. We can't reliably tell whether a product will be supported for the next N years. It feels non-deterministic.

I wouldn’t mind a $10k raise :)

I think you need to make your concerns more objective and focus on what can change about each one. You don’t seem to lack the critical thinking skills that are the hallmark trait of a good developer. The most objective criteria you can ever

Quite the opposite, you bring value into all of our lives by sharing your perspective — Insight is one of the most precious gifts. Thank you for that. There is nothing for you to apologize for.

I think it's an insightful look at today's society, and I'm fond of it. It's a result of the ongoing sex pride and positivity movement in the US. Anecdotally, recent generations have been raised with sexual repression an

Anecdata: I don’t know what that acronym is off the top of my head, and I’ve worked with databases in some form consistently for over ten years.

It’s multilayered advice with a healthy component and a controversial component. It is good to de-escalate and keep discussions alive, which is the heart of the idea. But timing is key and the human condition needs to be factored in; We do

I gave Amethyst a serious try about a year ago. I even joined the Gitter intending to contribute, as I needed some more dynamic rendering features, and read the foundational research on the wiki that seemed to inspire the project. I found t

I often battle an odd insecurity about taking too long to do things. I've taken some time to write this comment, for example, and I can't help but wonder how long all these other comments took to write -- How normal do I compare?

Me too. I still don’t understand why it was killed.

People tend to make negative associations with poverty. To survive in social circles, we tend to mask such negative associations -- Because sometimes it does have genuine negative consequence, regardless if it is fair or logical. It comes f

They often shoulder that responsibility to reduce friction, and I think it works net-positive in their favor. Billing the customer and then penalizing them for being a victim of theft introduces so much friction and frustration.

What an uncharitable interpretation of their comment :)

I have a hard time rationalizing this. I get the impression that they don’t want to conduct an arrest or get anyone in trouble — In their eyes, it was a mistake in need of no justice. That’s what the riots are about after all; I don’t think

Every meaningful authority is suggesting you do the opposite — Do not panic, there is no need to freak out. But you should still avoid getting it and spreading it to others. Having a slower, more controlled growth gives us significantly mor

Our species is concerned with power. And money gives you power. The greatest minds are focused on making money for themselves and someone else. Ads make money unfortunately. Knowledge about our planet earth does not.

During that healing period, your quality of life can significantly suffer. There's a "Smoker's cough" associated with people who smoke, but also a more serious "Smoker's cough" for some past smokers who ar

I see, I'm definitely not anywhere near this established yet, the process is more formal than I thought. I'll try another pitch when I have more objectivity (solid website, steam reviews or similar) to present. And thank you for t

Tangential question, was it difficult for you to receive the development kit for the Nintendo Switch? I'm creating a game right now and I can't get them to respond. I'd love to hear what worked well for you.

Casper caters to stress, ripoff anxiety, social anxiety, and budget. 1. We, the millennial crowd (tm), are insanely stressed on average. Whether it's objectively genuine or falsely perceived, brought on by ourselves or otherwise, it is

This is fascinating and indeed quite deep. You've given me a lot of great perspective, thank you, there is clearly much I can learn here.

There are certainly more mediums immediately available in a real-world artist's arsenal, but the depth of programming goes beyond the grammar: We do have choices in language (Rust vs. C++), program architecture (APIs exposed, code orga

I like to consider programming as an art form with many schools of thought. As with art in other mediums, developers enjoy creating and interacting with their art in different ways. Conflict builds when developers exist in the same ecosyste

When I went on-site for an interview with Palantir about a year ago, I had the same idea going in and left very disturbed. I'm not sure what else I can say under NDA, but anecdotally they have a frightening culture. I'm less worri
