It would have been exciting is Microsoft Visual C was open sourced, and we can once and for all end the tyranny of that wretched piece of shit and bring it in line with other build tools used everywhere else. I am tired of all the hoops I have to jump through to make code that compiles on linux (clang and gcc), os x (clang) and cygwin (gcc) compile under msvc, and I'm not even talking about the lack of posix support. That would make me hate microsoft a little less.
But no this is some silly editor I never heard of that doesn't have to do with the price of tea in china. This is creating a problem to a solution I did not have a problem for.
Even if it is accurate, it is irrelevant. It in theory would just show what has the most volume, but for the purposes of someone using Dice unhelpful. Why learn C if you're looking for a web job? Why learn javascript if you are doing device drivers?
All such opinions are subjective, until the point we can directly examine customer neurons in action, or at least have objective surveys
No, I am agreeing with you, thus sentence should have been deleted from TFS, even TFA: Open source programmers can usually build better code faster, often because they have bosses who pay them to build something that will pay off next quarter, not next century.
Not because they are opinions, because it is senseless for the objective of the summary and article and distracts the reader with a highly objectionable and contentious statement that is not relevant to the primary value of the article: good university projects that are succeeding in spite of academia's focus on the upper levels of the ivory tower. If you are going to make a statement like that, you can't just leave it in there like a big turd, you have to defend it.
Also I'm talking about code, I won't argue with you on UIs or user experience in general. open source does not do that well. And if you want a design-in, or build a platform around open source, you better be ready to pay money. OSS devs will fix bugs they recognize (i.e. they see as their problem, not as your problem) and if they need to re-architect and change the plumbing & API it will be done, so you better have someone on the line to keep your platform up to date. Academia may or may not do this for you, depending on the size of your project and how interesting it is to the staff.
That entire sentence should have been deleted. It is senseless and highly subject to point of view. In my opinion (doing this for a living, in several different corporations), the absolute worst code is proprietary corporate generated code: from bosses who want something that works next month and doesn't give a shit about next year. Even bad open source, by comparison, is frequently better.
You don't even have to pick the phone up anymore. The average person has no fewer than 4 recording devices (two with video) within 6' of him while he's at home, and 0 true "off" buttons.
They are not fiscally conservative because of their need to embrace the religious right, and end up in a strange dilemma of talking about cutting costs but being unable to do so effectively. For example, legalizing and even subsidizing abortions would solve many social woes and probably allow for a smaller government. But they can't do that without alienating God. Handing out contraceptives on street corners probably would, in the long run, reduce the amount of welfare and social services (and aforementioned subsidized abortions) at the federal and state level...but God. There's also a little bit of "I got mine so fuck you", but I believe hta can be moderated out once they lose the religious right. Those guys really should be voting democrat, or making a third party.
The republican party can win me over, but they have to drop Jesus and the implicit hatred of anything darker than off-white, and stop TELLING people things and start by doing and joining. I'm absolutely against hand-outs, but I also see the government as a tool to enable greater and wider worker productivity, and absolutely believe that is the key behind any sensible economic policy. However that is not enabled via racism, religious voodoo, or just sitting around with my thumb up my ass refusing to acknowledge the utility of government or the need to pay taxes.
The Republican Party needs younger voters more than the Democratic Party does, as conservative voters are dying off at a faster rate than liberal voters.
No, they just have to stop trying to pull right to the history that never was, and gradually those of us on the right side of democrat will gradually shift to the left side of republican.
The present course results in them being the party of the rich, which will not generate enough votes to win an election. Especially as atheism or just general apathy pushes the younger crowd to generally feel more comfortable with democrat social policies, even if they don't trust their financial policy.
up next: an app for your phone that interacts with all the crap they try to make you watch before they show you any content, then beeps to let you know the actual content is starting.
I suspect this is truth, but it doesn't make sense. Google found me this article, showing cost of prime time commercial slots for shows. The #1 show in that list was the Big Bang Theory, raking in $6.5M per episode in commercial spots with a viewership in 2014 of almost 20M people (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_Bang_Theory). So to generate equivalent revenue, without the bullshit, a viewer could pay just $.33 to watch the episode commercial free, and they'd win. This is for the most popular show on TV, most make do with less than 1/4 of that. For just $8 you could in theory own a 24 episode season, they'd make bank and you'd get your favorite show. No bullshit required!
Instead IF they give you that option it's usually $2 per episode, and/or you have to use their lousy site and be subjected to whatever arbitrary rules they want to impose.
Wonder what they'll do when enough people complain about how often salaried employees are misclassified as 'management' or "exempt" such that they can get infinite labor out of them. Amazon in particular ought to be worried.
Let's not report on it and give it free marketing. There's no danger to not spreading this: very few people are going to look for the app, and sensible people are going to distrust an app that encourages fighting or any other illegal activity. Let it drop, and take the wind out of sails.
I dunno, I think it may be lost in space after the passing of the creator. It feels like yet another franchise now, willing to compromise its vision for whatever sells. Unlike the other "Star..." franchise, in this case I think it's probably a bad thing.
If you work with them on "their" forums, in "their" community, can you not just follow their rules? You don't have to agree with them.
You can also create your own community, where the rules are as you like them (i.e. probably none), and do what you want to do. I suspect you will end up with the larger community when you're done. More importantly, someone probably needs to do this since I have a strong distrust for Golang (also C# and Swift) given that it's a corporate sponsored language and probably not "free" in any reasonable sense of the word, and the boundaries should be tested early and often.
Yet a lot of us get work done in Vi or Emacs. I think the UI guys spend more time marketing and justifying their existence than they bring value in. Examples: Windows 8, Unity, Office with "ribbons"
All shit that should never have existed, based on the UI principle of fixing what isn't actually broke.
The people of the US do not want to partner with China, we hate their government, we hate the culture their government creates. The businesses of the US love China.
This is going to be the story for a good way forward.
It is billed as a music and film festival. So I'm kind of curious what kind of music they play during the harassment panel.
Throughout all of history, even in the Victorian age
So that's what, Debussey, Brahms, maybe some Wagner? I guess Clair de Lune doesn't seem quite like harassment conference music, although with the recent rise in sparkly vampires, there is a whole new genre of passive-aggressive harassment going on that we should be inclusive of. Still, I wonder if anyone is attending to hear 120 year old music and a conference.
We don't hire technicians anymore. We saddle engineers with their work. So in a sense your statement is true, engineers don't get to do nearly as much "smart" stuff as our predecessors.
On the other hand, culturally we sneer at anyone who merely has a HS diploma, GED or went to trade school. If a tech is hired, it is hourly, without benefits and frequently contracted. The contract will intentionally run out every , he will be unemployed for the legally required time, then rehired. Or, you can hire an engineer and make him do the work, in addition to the work he went to school to do. Then the CEOs complain about a tech labor shortage, after disqualifying the vast majority of people capable of doing the majority of work, under-employing the much smaller tech labor they do hire, and if that's not enough they also try to throw in some program management and MBA shit and drive engineers out of technology period.
So you're wrong, we do need way more engineers! (See what I did there?) Most of them will never, ever, look at linear algebra again, directly or indirectly. But there are jobs to fill that engineering degrees are required for. I only know what eigenspace and lagrangians are because i happened to be bored last week and refreshed myself, but I haven't ever come close to using it: no one would want to do that fundamental kind of development!
It is billed as a music and film festival. So I'm kind of curious what kind of music they play during the harassment panel. Harassment is a growing problem, do you go pop? Or do you use music to highlight the issues in society and go rap? Me, I say quit being a victim and stir up the masses to fight the problem: metal all the way baby.

You forgot to mention the precise angles of left turns the vehicles can make.

for a measly $10 account credit?
In the Microsoft store. Not a thing in there anyone wants, I don't think I've ever seen anyone in there but employees.
At least give em a starbucks gift card or something that has street value.

That'll make for some angry birds.

Only if black.
I can't conceive of doing "work" on either device. They're both underpowered and worthless for "work". As a toy I want iOS or android.

I plan to plagiarize this for an audiophile review, just FYI.

The real fun will be to see how many of these people are active politicians.
Kitten stomping sounds unnecessarily cruel. However exploding kittens has a beat we can dance to.
