I learned to program in PHP and builtins tripped me up a LOT as a new programmer. Talk about wrapping your head around some things when you're brand new.

I find myself doing something similar while learning a new lang / framework. For example, I'll watch a pluralsight video, then challenge myself to see how far I can get from a blank directory to a working blogging app without gett

The vast majority of who? If you mean a vast majority of your customers calling into a support center, I'd argue that is a very small amount. I'd venture to say very few of peers in my circles call into support outside of account

In the Federal system inmates work towards something similar through their behavior. Look up Federal Prison Camps.

I almost feel bad for Murphy. This is super embarrassing "icing on the cake" of a situation that shows incompetence in not just technical ability, which I would think could be expected from an executive at such a technically focus

I am at 20mg ir of adderall and if it weren't for the jitters I wouldn't know I have taken anything. But that low strength provigil is very very noticeable, for example.

I wish that were a choice! Unfortunately for me most of my career options are shift-work based at this time. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Ironically, I am an operating engineer at a power plant. So, yeah, I don't have much of a choice.

I have recently, within the past 2 years, started to realize that I may be unintentionally self-medicating larger underlying issues and am attempting to put more trust into medical professionals. Skipping the story book, I work rapidly chan

Exactly my point. It has never been a good idea to use something like a social security number and the high school you graduated from to authenticate you as a person. But no one gives a shit because it works for the majority. But most impor

I was sent an e-mail to my .gov address with a code to signup for the service.

I hope we can use a breach of this magnitude to really start thinking about how we authenticate in real life. The current system is broken. The whole SSN thing is bad enough in and of itsself. Anything you can ask from me to authenticate my

I'm in the same boat. I'm not sure if you've had any kind of clearance, or know what kind of info you have to give for the investigations (everything), but this will be terrible for generations I presume. Instead of offering

This level of backlash being related to sexual orientation is a ridiculous claim. You should be ashamed. It's unfounded comments like yours that builds opposing communities against real issues.

I also got that vibe in a paragraph preceding the paper that has a Clickbank affiliate link to a book on the subject of intermittent fasting. The author goes on to state "...it has helped many people get leaner and healthier with a rel

Of course this is ridiculous in the lens of a privacy aware techie. In the lens of a consumer-first corporation such as Samsung, is this possibly the result of "convention over configuration" from the eyes of management demanding

I was affected and compromised by this. In response I was given 18 months of credit monitoring, where during registration it confirmed my identity by asking me questions like "What street did you grow up on?" and "What city d

Just got back to this. But almost exactly. I'd deposit the biggest checks I've ever seen. But they'd be gone almost immediately if we zeroed the AP. It completely changed the phrase of "letting the bills pile up" fo

I took it as they hit a sandbar really hard. That's why they had to bail. Am I wrong?

I had an opportunity to be the manager of a multi-million dollar contractor's office. It included bookkeeping among many other things. Never before had I realized the power of cash-flow, but also the destruction. On paper there were ma

Kind of the same thing, but in the opposite direction: This morning my girlfriend got a notification that some day next week Uber drivers will pick up donations and transport them to Goodwill.

May I also add that Redshift is an alternative on Linux and there are multiples on iOS and Android. These apps and bright light therapy have done numbers on my shift-work disorder.

I'm also interested in knowing how one can really put a price on a bug, and user dsacco seems credible enough to answer that. For example, Facebook's bounty program paid $12,500[1] for the bug that could delete any photo album. Th
