Interesting post but was really hoping to understand why some of my saves wouldn't transfer to other 360 consoles. Back when the "red ring of death" was more common, I would be issued a replacement console. When I snapped my

You're not wrong. However, even if you make an all-cash offer and remove every single contingency, you're still looking at roughly 2 weeks minimum to close. You're making the assumption that title companies are competent (the

Like most things, it depends what your web application is doing. I've been working in Erlang professionally nearly 6 years, and I'm not super convinced it's great for building web apps. If you want to utilize the Erlang VM, m

As a seasoned Erlang developer, it's really foreign to me that people can go so far as to never need a GenServer since they are everywhere in Erlang. Have you had any experience with ramping up an Erlang engineer to use Elixir? After i

I've also seen the bait-and-switch with recruiters. Many years ago when I was young in my career, I decided to respond to a recruiter who worked for a recruiting firm. We had a good talk and there was a company he was working with that

I've seen "The Go Game"[1] work really well amongst teams within my company. I am in no way affiliated with this company, just heard good things. They have a variety of activities like trivia, puzzles, and some others. [1] h

I felt the same way when I read they waited for 20 minutes. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be stated if the cops initially showed up with vests and guns drawn or if more showed up after failure to comply. If it was the former, I cou

That's pretty significant when you see that median household income across the nation ranged from $38,000/yr - $68,000/yr [1]. 5% - 13% of your paycheck going to a war [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

What was particularly fun for me as a kid, regarding video game rentals, was that consoles like the N64 and SNES had saves on the cartridge and sometimes you'd pick a game with a save slot where someone already unlocked a huge chunk of

Yes, I've seen this as well and from my observation, it seems to boil down to company culture and a lack of product direction. A company that refuses to accept that errors and faults happen tends to permeate into the code. A lot of peo

Being that Alameda County (and neighboring Santa Clara County) have the highest number of COVID cases in the Bay Area[1], I would argue that their response was not overblown and likely had numbers to back why they were being aggressive. [1]

I'm simply curious if the protocol was ever brought up in discussion and if there was a conscious decision to not go that route due to product needs. I'm not going to speculate on what the advantages/disadvantages would have

I'm curious if Slack ever considered using XMPP in their stack for core chat? As an outsider, it seems XMPP would fit like a glove (even signing in to a work "domain" screams XMPP).

There's no hard-and-fast rule on this but generally junior projects are isolated where you may only have one stakeholder. Growing into a more senior role, your actions generally have greater breadth that affect more teams/clients&

I work for a mobile gaming company in SV (500+ employees) where the office hours are 10 - 7. I come in just before 9 and I leave at 5. Nobody seems to care and people respect my hours. I receive good performance reviews and I'd like to

Thank you for the response. I totally agree on the early-exit loop problem

I'm glad Erlang gave you the feature you were looking for but I can't help think of what the cases would be where a map, fold, or even assigning a lambda function to a variable wouldn't work?

I think you may have misunderstood. I think OP meant that you have to explicitly "freeze" or "halt" the program to save on battery. In other forms of software development, it's not common to explicitly state in yo

Maybe I'm missing something but I'm not understanding how one reaches statistical significance when this bill was signed into law only 3 months ago? Do board members have so much of an impact that one fiscal quarter can prove that

But what part of that 77% represent the students receiving free tuition based on the 125k family income? I would think that 77% is also lumping students who a) have a free ride from scholarships, academic and/or sports. b) have the fin

My Uncle in-law sold his house a couple months ago in Santa Clara (right next to Levi's stadium) and was asking for $1.2MM hoping to actually get 1.3 for it (a problem unto itself..). They took a $1.5MM offer (from about 5 other simila

You mean like retirees like baby boomers or way in the future retirees? As long as Prop 13 stays around, you have quite a few retirees who've been in their current home for 40+ years and only pay like $700 in property taxes a year. The

I'm not a fan of Prop 13 and I've considered what the effects would be if it was phased out in some way. I really wanted to gain a better understanding of the housing climate back in the 70's when this proposition came to pas

I don't think I misunderstand. In 2012, there were quite a few up and coming social media apps. Twitter, Vine (2013), Tumblr, Pinterest, Snapchat (2011), and even Google+. Plenty of competition from both small and big companies. I&#x27
