w.cd had the best recommendation system for music and audio equipment. The communities that tried to take it's place after don't come close. It's a shame because I don't know where to talk about it anymore. r doesn'

Not too mention, at least in America, the vast majority of American lives are far worst off than they were in the 70s, 80s, or 90s. Making smart phones and personal computers just made rich people richer.

When I interview candidates who mention github contributions or courses they've created/taught or talks they've given I never have time to look at it. I'm literally told we're bringing someone on site maybe a day or

4 years for a product is abysmal from one of the richest companies in the world. This is Google not some garage shop with 2 employees.

I forgot the shinning examples of conservative rule that is Alabama and Mississippi. For all the faults that California has political, it's still an economic powerhouse. What does Kentucky have?

It's not just California, it's every state and every city in the US. People have an aversion to public works projects often crying about taxes or how the service is useless or not good enough. We have a political system where one

IME no. This is going to be an extremely cynical take but most software jobs (>80%) are basically the same. That goes for the companies as well, we aren't as unique as we think; and the companies that are unique or doing unique work

Before changing jobs, I was in a WeWork location at DTX in Boston. There were many rooms that were empty, but Puma was paying for an entire floor so maybe they were making the difference up with large corporation clients?

My current org is composed of mostly MS and PHDs (I'd honestly say 60% have graduate degrees), the only thing it convinced me of is that if you're working in my company and went to MIT (or any other good school) something is wrong

Why shouldn't doctors and the medical industry take the blame in the US? They artificially limit the supply of Doctors in the US and have the audacity to claim that building more medical schools will ruin their already lucrative career

Are there any resources or articles you'd recommend to get a more in-depth view of CSS? I'm a frontend developer but I always struggle with CSS beyond the basics. Understanding how you you created this is very enlightening.

Good thing 80% of the population is concentrated into cities and not spread across the country...

ICE is a recent phenomenon whose creation was only due to 9/11 attacks. Prior everything they did was handled by other organizations more effectively.

It's not really excuses when the person doesn't understand what they are doing or why. The problem is entirely with how NPM downloads dependencies, not exactly typescript. The OP is rightfully getting type errors due to conflictin

I don't mean to be facetious but how does that make it better? Doesn't he still control the company that owns the fund? Is it suppose to be better because it "looks" better because with my minimal understanding there isn

Not speaking of tornado zones, but most of the FEMA insurance goes to homes that make of beach/water front property. I'd love to see the hordes of poor people that live on the beach.

Nice to know that people are still clinging to a document that can literally mean whatever we want it to when convenient while Americans continue to shuffle and get raped by the corporate class.

Why is it hard to fire employees? Workers have extremely weak protections in the United States. I never buy this argument. If google wanted to clean shop they can, other tech companies do it regularly (IBM, Oracle, etc).

You tax the ultra wealthy. The easiest thing would be to increase progressive tax brackets (why does it stop at 600k?), raise taxes on inheritance over $10 million, establish new multiple payroll taxes to help SSA (why do the brackets stop

How do I have a choice as a consumer when companies have no incentive (through force of law or massive fines) to correct their actions? I live in an area that has typical grocery stories, everything inside is covered in plastic. There'
