  1. I'm so sick of hearing about relevant experience. The only experience I give a shit about is learning experience. In tech learning is really the only thing you keep getting better at if you keep doing it. Things change so much that the importance of curiosity and the ability to smash that curiosity quickly is the determinate of qualified. Admiral Rick over only hired good people who could be trained and he used those people to develop a nuclear powered flotilla which to this day has not experienced a single reactor incident.

    Credible journalist is enough for now.

    Microsoft is by far one of the best tech companies around. WTF you neckbeard 50 yr old junior high student.

  4. Except for making a statement directed at the old and gullible, disparaging Bloomberg and making other weasle non-statements to downplay everything without addressing the question. Good politician.

    Don't worry, the fed is working on screwing up the economy to loosen the labor market to "cool down" the economy. One thing I hoped was that Trump would light into the federal reserve. He has been issuing his opinion which is more than I can say for the last few weak, ignorant presidents. Listening to the statementsfrom fed heads about why and when they are going to mess with interest rates to put people out of work is like talking with that IT guy that has all the passwords and has been running the systems for ten years by himself. Lots of words that lead people to get overwhelmed by the complexity of thier statement so that people relinquish authorityto them. All they spew is crap.

    Agreed. We should stop exporting American tech and business efficiency to the benefit of entities which do not hold the values which made those things possible. We are in effect letting Google and other companies destroy individual freedom. They aren't so smart after all.

    I build things for money and love. However, I'm not going to help the asshole Chinese dictators take over the world. The only thing keeping the world from turning into an orwellian dystopia is the expectation of freedom inherent in the American people, who are in fact people from all over the world who are sick and tired of being harassed by a government. We should be thankful that stupid media fads like this are embraced. We should also be careful not to confuse media with journalism and kill one while maligning the other.

  8. Wrong. Biggest offender is cow gas. Not joking.

    I hear they are having a large gathering in ten years where they will be serving kool-aid.

    Am3+ FX CPUs are beyond decent and an 8 core is going for $69 right now. Most people, including us, wouldn't notice the difference between an FX and a Ryzen.
