I lean towards the one with the best distribution model, what can reach the largest audience without unnecessary layers, since the language particulars aren't all that important except in endless bike shedding.
and that would be JS.
Unless you need to do something more interesting than a browser will allow.
well, when they convert the bulk of their stuff to go, if the plan works, and the theory is correct, then they can hire something more like a laborer instead of an engineer.
The main thing is that they are so huge, they can afford such experiments. I don't put much faith in that approach outside of a huge organization, and the jury is still out internally.
And given their shift to no brainteasers and no degree, and diversity and other non skill based focus, and sheer number of employees, the bar may not be set where you think it is these days. Hell it might not be much harder than stating your political beliefs (assuming you have the right political beliefs) based on recent cultural evidence.
On the other hand, I don't think anyone accused slack, with multi-megabyte webpages and even worse mobile app, of being a great experience. I think I used it once, and said no more.
you can stare at the sun to be more productive when viewing the sun as well. /s
No, I don't buy the green screen argument, any more than the randomness of paper being somewhat white and ink being in contrast to that. Certainly white on black is useful in astronomy, the stuff you are interested in is lit. This article was such a wall of text, I don't know if it ever supported its conclusion very well, which is ironic for an article promoting "productivity".
some of don't really care who reads it, just that it is available. This gaming of everything is not necessarily a good thing. Is your article about programming or something, or is it about attention whoring?
LDS net worth 67 billion,
vatican, 30 billion
etc. etc.
Obviously there are extremes on the other end, but for those with 45k disposable income, who can make investments and own land, no "vow of poverty" should be assumed either.
the bureau of labor statistics lists the mean salary for clergy as $50k, with a range of $25k to $80k as well.
but everything included, so that is basically 35k, tax free, or in a lower tax bracket since so much of the compensation is non monetary, purely disposable.
granted this is a textual representation (very useful in certain circumstances) but that is semantics. Having done plenty of assembly, I don't see a huge distinction here.
well the pressure aspect wouldn't require constant energy input. And I assume it is a lot more economical to use a consumer refrigerator than liquid nitrogen.
But yah, you can bathe a much more complicated "circuit" in liquid nitrogen a lot easier than compressing it with diamond anvils. Though no commercial superconducting computers have emerged, cmos is just too cost effective currently, and the known examples are still in the 4K range.
"Some sort of measurable practice", not anything remotely like a "soul", in fact invoking "you have no soul" usually means you lost the argument and are now desperate enough to say anything.
I'm not trying to shit on anyone, just lucky to live in an area of abundance where $200 can go a very long way if you do your homework and don't internalize status/marketing expectations.
Indeed if it weren't for people pursuing the new shiny, I'd have to pay at least 10x for the same utility. But as it is I'm glad to re-purpose/reuse. I have no delusions that I'm not a scavenger in this economic realm. Though I do appreciate a solid "grandpa" car that seats 6 and can tow a few thousand pounds and can still get 30mpg on the highway.
until recently mine was a $70 i5 compaq elite (w/ssd and ram and vidya). And yes, I do drive a 25 year old $1000 car on the daily (only upgrade was a tow hitch), jealous?
when you concentrate that much power, the effects may be worse than the original problem. Indeed it may not even address or care about the original problem once it reaches critical mass. The type of people who are interested in social/economic/political power, seem mostly interested in social/economic/political power, and the moral crisis de-jour is just a tool.
