CompTIA: another for the list of, "I can't believe that company is still around."

The thin phone is a lie, and the memes are rather hilarious.

They basically have a viral marketing campaign against their phone going on.

Apparently they've been building it since the 80s.

What's wrong with PDF as a format? Compared to HTML/CSS, it's positively elegant.

Management isn't dumb. They have incentives that are different than yours, and they chase their own incentives.

If you're a startup, you're breaking other people's things. You don't have any of your own stuff to break.

If you put an object into a list, queue, stack or hashtable, then you need to have a plan to remove it otherwise you have a memory leak.

I agree with your post, but for sales, it's often more important to be pretty than functional.

You should, it's a great language.

It doesn't take more effort (it does take more skill). Some people say it takes more time up front, and that may be true, but it pays off within days if not hours or even minutes (meaning total time required is less).

There are several reasons for this:
1) A major part of KISS is reducing redundancy. You are literally writing fewer lines of code.
2) The benefit of refactoring tends to begin earlier rather than later (ie, move your methods around, rename variables) within the first 500 lines of code.
3) Most of the time of software development is in testing. Well written code requires less testing.

Even if electric power, water, sewer, trash pickup, and gas for indoor heating (in areas that get snow) are included in your rent, other services with recurring payments include home and mobile Internet access, renter's insurance, car insurance, and health insurance.

A lot of shows on streaming services are never released on DVD.

They can do long term planning, but their incentives are about doing things that improve their own career. (If you want people to change, their incentives need to change).

It's also management driven. If you want to climb the ladder, you are incentivized to get more people below you on the management tree. If you want more people below you, the easiest way is to slow your guys down so you need to hire more of them. Managers really don't want your people to be more efficient.

When I've asked others what has improved about GitHub over the past seven years of ownership by Microsoft, people have told me free private repositories are the big one.

Zhirinovsky pretty clearly wanted to control Eastern Europe. He wanted to control Russia, as well.

The Ukraine war is one parting present from the old snake Kissinger. If he can't play ball, no one can.
