What if they ask proof of your diploma? Providing forged documents (i.e. lie about graduation date) is a serious crime.

There are usually ways for you as a user to customize these apps and make them less distracting (e.g. "Settings -> Notifications", etc).

I agree. But give it some years and we'll get a proper AI "Joe Rogan & Steve Jobs" podcast (although I'm personally more interested in hearing more about Wozniak than Jobs).

I read your blog post. I agree with most of it. But...

I wish I could be as optimistic as you are. We're seeing extreme, unpredictable weather _right now_. This could lead to reduced food production a few years from now.

I worked for two years at Amazon. My managers were not diving deep at all. At least not more than any other average manager in any other average company.

Nobody talking about Rocksmith here!? Really!?

> in my new company, where we do not have any process at all, just a common goal. Instead of standups, the team gathers for a coffee in the morning. If I want to spend 3 days learning a new framework that might do the product good, nobody cares. The only thing that counts is the endresult. That means we are beating the product into submission until its good, even if it means rewriting the thing three times and missing deadlines. So no more Scrum for me. Never.

I love this. Mind sharing the name of the company?

And me!

>Einstein was, by all accounts I've seen, a pretty nice fellow.

Except to his wife.

Blood for the blood god!

Is it so terrible to once in a while have an inconvenience like this, compared to other actual problems that society has nowadays?

Excuse me, how can people be so concerned about this while we have a major climate crisis going on that affects 7 billion people? It blows my mind.

Source?

Sorry for my ignorance. I'm very curious to know, how exactly will those specific countries gain land?

Me too! I would love to hear more about your experience.

Can you write proper Chinese? The whole world is trying to adapt to a single universal language and for some cultures with completely different roots is probably much more difficult than for others.

Is there any particular technical reason behind the decision of having 4500 LoC in a single file? It sounds like a pain to maintain and extend.

Actually most of the features that Java released over the last few years where first implemented in C# (e.g.: Lambdas).

More gems:

"8:29 And king Joram went back to the compiler."

"Using Lisp we restrict or limit not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us."

And the not so politically correct: "Tools like pic2graph(1) can bundle together all the Jews that were in the uttermost part of heaven."

Follow what makes you happier.

You misspelled Java.

Just fire the guy.

Scumbag wizard.

Those resources could have been spent in something more useful.
