I agree... but not at the engineering level. This is, IMO, a leadership-level problem. You'll always (hopefully) have an engineering manager or staff-level engineer capable of keeping the dev team in check. I say it's a leadership

I'm sorry but that assertion is a farce in itself in my opinion. I enrolled in the best University in my country for Civil Engineering and dropped after my second semester. I did the same for Computer Engineering and International Busi

So what are the speech-impaired to do then? When I'm driving I find it less distracting to adjust the AC or the music via knobs, than to use the voice activated calling function. Mind you my cars speech recognition is quick and superb,

It's very easy to end up with messy/unusable history or even lose work when you have multiple people working on related parts of a project with outdated branches and limited git knowledge. I have been bitten by coworkers submittin

Buddy you seem to think I don't for the most part agree with you. That couldn't be more far from the truth! Yes if you are in that situation that might be your only choice, or at the very least the only choice you believe you have

While I don't particularly agree with OP's premise that only education can solve this problem, it can also be argued that the situation you describe is a result of a set of choices made that directly correlate to bad personal an

I'm gonna piggyback on your comment to ask a question I'm not clear on. Am I correct in that if I don't set a recovery email there is absolutely no way for anyone to get access to my account unless they get my password? If th

That is a total strawman argument buddy. The argument "gun ownership serves as a deterrent of crime and has been known to spoil criminal endeavours, therefore we should allow citizens to carry guns" has never been about vigilantis

To make matters worse a lot of the times those situations are direct results of cultural and biological differences between the sexes. Every single woman I've ever heard negotiate a salary has done the research and tried for the market

But vim is really not that hard to use. The initial learning curve might be steep, but as a whole vim is in general easy to use once you 'grok' it. Anyways I do agree with you on one thing, this articles convey the idea that vim r

This is of course my personal opinion, but I think you're suffering from exactly what OP mentions. I'm not trying to be conflictive or anything, but this is in my experience the same argument that every language evangelist uses. I

By that logic then it makes even more sense to use the credit card over both cash and <whatever>coin. If the transaction price is getting bundled into the overall price of the article I'm buying, why would I pay in cash and lose

As a self taught guitar/piano player, programmer, and investment trader I couldn't agree more. I learnt by reading and playing/coding/investing as much as I could when I could. As to how to get a job as a self taught any

Yep, we have a junior dev working on customization and integration with SAP. She needs help every once so I sometimes help her out with the more complicated stuff, but in general she comes out with pretty robust code and the integrations an

Their products are general enough to be easily customized by a couple of devs (or even only one) for very specific use cases. They're also easily integrated with market leading erp software. Companies that already use it for developmen

Damn. That is even worse. To me DNF means either Duke Nukem Forever or Did Not Finish. I'd rather not chuckle every time I mean to update a package... :)

He's promotion quinoa as a rice replacement. I approve of the sentiment that rice is shitty and quinoa (I love quinoa cus-cus) is better, but it has nothing to do at all with the article itself.

Well you're in for a world of pain my brother. Here's a list of other brands that do this: HP, Toshiba, Dell, et al. The excuse they give, albeit stupid and useless IMO, is a valid one. This used to be easy to maneuver around by j

The fact that you believe I'm attacking you tells me all I need to know. I'm not protesting a single thing. You are. I'm telling you why people - myself included - do not agree with you. There is no violent imagery besides th

> That's complete bullshit. Why? Because you say you say so? You got down-voted because you equated the word "Gun" to "Murder" and "Kill". That is what I call bullshit, and fear-mongering, and just plai

by sp4rki 12y ago
You might not have said the words (and I never said you did, for the record) but you're giving the word "gun" an equal connotation as per your "kill" and "genocide" references. So, you say it's wrong.

Just to add to your comment. I've had almost zero issues with Sid, and the issues I've had I've avoided by using apt-listbugs anyways. I can't say that when I tired Ubuntu and Mint. Mint actually botched my install on an

No, my argument is that "gun" is not "rape", "terrorism", or any other socially unacceptable word that's linked to morality and the ethically correct. You know what's bullshit? You saying you have abs

Why is it off-putting for you? What do you have against an inanimate object? Kill? Murder? Genocide? Guns don't kill, murder, or commit genocide. At least I've never seen a gun go on trial for any of those. People on the other han
