In general the whole "third-world" or "developing" country categorization is wrong.
Sure (although it's likely), but I don't think it's fair to call quantum computing hardware entirely theoretical at this point.
Personally I bought a cheap USB GPS device (GlobalSat BU-353-S4) that offers NMEA compliant strings, and I coded off the NMEA spec. I don't think for a personal project it's unreasonable to say "code for spec, and buy a GPS receiver that meets it".
What is a PWA and why should you care?
Because those other costs aren't avoidable by customer choices, and they don't go towards "reward" programs that distort the payment market and push everyone to high cost systems.
I am sure that's true, but unless there is an alternative driver I am not sure why that makes a difference.
I'm not saying its not worth it to use AWS (or GCE etc), but depending on your scale it can be quite exhorbitant, and you get quite dependent and coupled to those externally provided services.
IIRC, Liberace was once involved in a tax case where the question was if his on-stage costumes were "clothes" or a business expense.

Ethical questions can take weird forms.
Am I going crazy, or is every comment hidden in here?
I've made the mistake of using "opinionated" libraries in the past. Usually what it means is that they lock you into a workflow designed by someone with different use cases from yours, to a fault.

A product I'm working on is being choked by another opinionated framework as author's opinions no longer align with best practices and we're locked in.
Would be easier to create a organization that just monitor web indexes and other kind of influential internet core websites instead.

And I think that is a perfect spot for EFF.

I had just read this essay which advocated for the FANG + Microsoft to be nationalized and taken out of the profit system like the post office. It really resonated with me. If anything, the removal of profits would return the things we like about these companies and remove the things we despise while giving their customers more of a say in how they do buisness.

Having worked with some small farms that sell boutique $VEGETABLE at absurd prices I don't think those are the kinds of businesses I want to subsidize with cheap labor (i.e. higher quality than they could otherwise get at that price point as a result of the college credits).

Construction is probably a better choice because there's far more diversity to what the field entails and it provides real world context for many more degree programs than farming does.

> The big issue with a phrase like "don't be evil" is that it is ambiguous and highly depends on the understanding of the word "evil" to the individual that reads that line.

That's a feature, not a bug. If you think to yourself:

"Self, is this truly evil? Are there no redeeming factors or are the consequences more heavily tilting to the negative than the positive?"

And the answer comes back: "Yes this is truly evil. No, even from a consequentialist perspective you shouldn't do it."

Then you should speak up. Even if only 1% of Google's employees see something from a certain light and speak up, that's enough! It doesn't mean they get final say, but it encourages a conversation where there might have been none. At the end of the day they can always quit in protest.
Definitely. I probably wouldn't have been able to have done internships over the summer with year-round school. And, at least in my case, the internship(s) led to a full-time job at the same place years later.

Growing up in Upstate NY, I always assumed part of it was also due to the fact that breaks during the winter basically translate to hours spent cooped-up inside, watching TV or playing on the computer.

I know that the 3-month summer break stems from historical harvest/planting schedules... but when there's 20 inches of snow outside and the wind chill is -10 F, I'll take 3 months of summer vacay over 6 weeks of summer and 6 weeks of winter breaks any day.

Frosting is bad, and you can put ice pies if you like ruining good things.

The advantage of cake over pie is layering. A pie reveals everything upfront, a cake can hide deeper secrets, and provide more contrast in both taste and texture.
There are certain abilities we speculate that differentiate us from animals. I think the ability to abstract concepts separate from direct reality is among them. The ability to exist in symbolic space is a source of great advancement in humanity, but also of great tragedy.

I was really surprised by that when my friend bought his house. It's a sneaky way to get around the fact that the bank won't finance anything that's not secured by the house. So say you are buying a house for 200k, but after the down payment, you don't have the money to redo the kitchen like you wanted. No problem, the seller adds 3k to closing costs and hands you a check for 3k. Your bank hands you a check for 203k, You pay the seller, and suddenly you have 3k that your bank wouldn't finance directly to redo your kitchen.

"Hate speech is bad only if we let it affect us."

This is a misunderstanding of hate speech. If leaders of a group direct harassment campaigns against another group, that speech hurts whether you "let" it or not. For example when reddit had a "fat people hate" group, they started coordinated harassment campaigns. When the subreddit was deleted, they didn't have a support group telling them that harassment was ok, and they didn't have an obvious place to coordinate even if they wanted to.

* Backbone (for a couple years)

* Backbone + Marionette (for a couple more years)

* Angular (for about a week)

* React (for the past few years)

Perhaps I misunderstand what you mean, but isn't this the exact opposite of an appeal to authority? The claim is that she's not qualified because she's not a credentialed economist.
