This. For all the, "Where's my jetpack?" angst in the world of science fiction fanboys (I am one) and start-up builders, there seems to be a disconnect with the rest of humanity on this issue. If the chance of failure is >

It's fascinating to meet people like this with the intention of learning about confirmation bias. It's amazing the delusions people will grip on to maintain social status and some semblance of personal integrity and stability of b

To further add to your point: developers now have control over the means to production and, unlike the industrial revolution, we programmers do not need access to capital and expensive manufacturing equipment to build a product. We just nee

After reading through some of your older, down-voted comments, I noticed a trend of rebuttals. Both your comments and their replies are valuable points of conversation in the topics. While you may think some are > dumb, uninteresting Tha

No. Don't do this. I don't want the comments here to have a chilling filter like this. We need diversity of opinions even if some of them aren't liked. That is part and parcel of healthy debate. There should be fringe opinion

TV's, Software, and Toys are cheaper, and notably the only categories cheaper on that chart from BLS. Well, it looks like this is good at keeping rioting off the streets; everyone is too distracted consuming tech.

In it's most basic premise, life is perplexingly defined as "not death". And what is life other than a struggle to fight entropy? Sisyphus is happy, and I would argue - alive! https://medium.com/@mustaphahitan

I think a healthy level of social media use is to share photos, and ask for advice and recommendations. Anything else is social engineering that you are a deliberate manipulator of or unbeknownst participator. Flame bait, click bait, emotio

As long as consumers follow along, this will not change. We've allowed the US healthcare system to become a toxic cesspool of greedy insurance companies with laughable and corrupt government oversight. IMHO, The only way this changes i

This reason alone (the ads to other Prime shows) is why I cancelled my Prime subscription and also was the final nail in the coffin on why I stopped using amazon all together. Amazon started to piss me off when they turned my amazon kindle,

A good rant and first foray into politics for the OP, I would imagine. C'est La vie. IMHO, the next step for OP is to learn how to play the game and add "finding a paying customer" to that list of what's next. Google &qu

I drink coffee. Up to three cups a day when working over 12 hours. Beyond that? No. I have an occasional glass of red wine at night, but have little desire to ever try any other drug. I am curious about the effects of micro-dosing LSD for c

This isn't user experience. It is Marketing 101. What a user feels about content is more concerned about persuasion than it is interactive behavior with the software. Your software shouldn't get in the way between the user and co

This story immediately reminded me of Scott Adams. He spent some time working on financial models before writing Dilbert. If you can stomach polarizing political viewpoints from a cartoonist, I would highly recommend reading his non-Dilbert

The pain of implementing an ORM and the generated code between OO and Relational Databases might be low hanging in it's explanation, but writing a language that does this is probably a Hard Problem. I wouldn't call that low hangin

Wow. I'm speachless. I remember when Obama visited the TechShop near me in Pittsburgh. This was supposed to be the next big thing! The harbinger into the Uberization of the workforce. What a bummer and major dissapointment. I met with

Nature isn't fair. Death is the norm for most life. Eat or be eaten. Kill or be killed. The fact you are alive now, and are intelligent ,and have enough resources to contribute to this discussion is already extreme luck. Things are not

I would highly recommend "Jump Start Your Brain" by Doug Hill. On page 88 there is a "Eureka" formula you can use to generate ideas. (#of good ideas = ((number of stimuli)^(diversity))/fear) Once you have an idea, j

I hope all the hacked data gets open-sourced. Maybe then we'll have some serious reform. This is ridiculous. What is it going to take to get Congress to actually do something? In the meantime, my strategy is to keep my credit score bad
