Well, to be fair, after a short google expedition, America does seems to be an accepted name for the United States of America, but it is so ONLY in the United States of America.
This isn't really true. When you say that you're an "American" to nearly anyone in the world, the valid assumption they make is that you're from the USA. It only follows that an "American" would be from "America," being the USA.
As for cost of living... I'm at the Boulder, Colorado office (which is hiring, BTW
Sadly, I'm used to my 5 minute commute from Highlands Ranch. Boulder is pricey too, but I guess if you live in Broomfield, it's cheap.
I assure you that neither of those things has EVER come up in a job interview.
But they have in the salary planning. They know what they're getting, and pay accordingly.
Perhaps in larger or
They show up in determining whether to consider a candidate for an interview. Many places will not interview someone with short experience and an associate's. I've been on the interviewing end of that equation.
I'm a 40-year-old developer, and it's become apparent that my
I'm sorry. Honestly, I really am sorry. I don't like that framework, I don't like that language. Also when I was growing up it was largely a "pay to play" realm and largely still is (although I know I can get my hands on an express IDE).
This really is less than helpful, albeit typical for the longer-run members in this community. It's
To answer more fully - age is irrelevant. If you desire to pick up the variations between
On top of this, why were people drinking so much coffee? Because they were working long days? Staying up late? Other activities that can lead to eye strain? Sorry but this sounds like correlation rather than causation.
While a decent point, I'm pretty sure coffee is very much a cultural thing for those up near the arctic circle. It might have something to do with the lack of sunlight, so compensation is made with caffeine.
Having seen fully-US-government-run healthcare up close and personal? Let's just say that no matter how good Canada or the UK does it, I know full well that here in the US, we'll just fuck it up, and to the detriment of anyone who will have to suffer under it.
It's not very good in Canada or the UK, even though you get a pile of Canadians and English spouting how great gov't healthcare is. That is the problem when bureaucracy is introduced to healthcare. Everyone gets crappy care that is free.
You should never, never, never, ever use a production release as a beta test.
Tell that to Blizzard, Bethesda, Rockstar, Google, Microsoft (all OS versions before first or second svc pack), Apple...
Sure, it's ideal to catch everything, but it's ultimately unrealistic. There's also the issue of software vs. data. In Apple's maps' case, it's the data that's problematic. The software implementation seems to be solid.
Mod parent up! Apple may have money to throw at this issue, but they do NOT have the time. They might have if they have developed this for a few more years in secret, but now that it's out, they're boned.
That's the most ridiculous thing I've read today. The issues present in the maps app are hyped up only in a very small community - and given the alternative apps, the "time" issue is irrelevant. Apple isn't in any danger over their flawed maps app.
Yet Apple's response was not to approach alternative mappers like Mapquest, Bing Maps, Garmin, etc. They're response was to build their own.
"Not Invented Here Syndrome" is a pretty prominent anti-pattern.
This is pretty inaccurate. They bought some geospatial companies and made some modifications to their products. This is essentially what Google has done for over ten years.
Why not hand out
You signed up in 1999 or 2000. I know, because that's about when I signed up.
It's an article about a sociopath, who just happened to be an attractive female. The story, American Psycho, is no more sexist than this particular anecdote, only it happens to be about an attractive male sociopath.
Your reaction makes a fair number of assumptions about the aim of the article. All it's trying to say, is don't get too mixed up with pretty people at the work place before you get to know them. That pretty much goes for men AND women alike. I think the workplace modifier is there because it's your place of employment - it makes things far more complicated than the equivalent mistake being made between visitors at a bar.
If we achieved faster than light travel, we probably wouldn't know that we achieved it for many years to come.
Air pollution is really making us pay through the nose.
