Soil and Soul by Alastair McIntosh talks a lot about these types of dwellings, and the culture of the people who lived in them. It’s a must read if you are interested in learning about the history of that part of the world.

Designing, developing and maintaining software systems is most definitely a form of ‘real’ engineering, and should be referred to as such. Qualified software engineers have gained their qualifications in the field through various pathways including tertiary study and professional accreditation, which are rigorous. Not all forms of engineering are regulated, because they don’t need to be.

Seems like more of a cat adoration project than a scientific study. Unlike other cat cam projects there is no mention of domestic cats predatory behaviour, and how this impacts the environment. Seems like mostly POV for cat lovers.

I agree. 10 min was all I could bare. It's just a big mix of sound bites.

When will Azure do the same?

How much do one of these things cost?

Correlation does not imply causation.

Why are these people the "world's top developers"?

Errm no, a reply-to header is not the same as a sender envelope. Spam filters will flag emails that are faking the sender envelope. Spf is also only checking sender envelope. A reply-to can generally be what ever you want, same for from header... So linked sends email with from and reply-to headers set with your email, but sender envelop is from their server. So email appears to come from you, but was sent from linked in server, which is setup to pass spf test so does not get flagged by spam filter. Check the headers in the emails raw source, and you will see what i mean

I think a lot of developer don't really understand OOP, and as a result they mess it up. In many ways functional programming is more straight forward, easier to get your head around it, but you can still mess it up just as much.

I feel your statement above is a little naive. You should read some Martin Fowler. Be less reactive and more informed. Find balance.

Software systems, regardless of methodology, need good experienced designers There is no silver bullet.

Interesting article, but a bit far fetched. You can sync your clocks to GMT, nothing stopping you do that. But I doubt you will convince anyone else to. And what about daylight saving time? As much as I hate daylight saving, its still a custom that is used in many parts of the world. There was no mention of this in your article. In the end of the day, we are all quite used to syncing our clocks relative to sunrise. 9am means the same thing where ever you are in the world. So in some ways time zone keeps us all in reasonably in sync to sunrise

I use it, works great.

Wtf, I never noticed that either, duh?

Very cool. How is the ink used? I think I will go read about offset printing. I mean we see the result every day, but just take it granted. Interesting

I think you are creating a storm in a tea cup. I agree that there has been some copy pasting of code blocks. But that's life and the nature of writing.
