MK_Dev··on Ask HN: What do you talk about in 1-on-1s with your managers?
On a number of occasions that I was asked this question, I replied with a question of my own: "where _can_ I be in X years in this company?" Unfortunately, I never received a reply even remotely close to a satisfactory. Satisfactory answers would include opportunities and directions, with big bonus points for an attempt to find overlaps with my general desires, motivation, and strengths.
MK_Dev··on “Fuck You” Money
"the traits that made them so successful" - or perhaps the choices?

Too much confusion between fame and wealth - the author tried to disambiguate, but I don't think they succeeded.

"If you are "publicly rich" (think athletes, authors, movie stars, politicians, etc.), you no longer have a private life." - isn't this true for most public figures regardless of their wealth status?

MK_Dev··on Should you buy your stock options when you quit?
"What’s 75%, of half a percent, of a million dollars? $37,500"

It's a risk, and as such, one should aim at a billion, not a million, that's what investors expect anyway. So by that logic, the return could be much much bigger.

MK_Dev··on ORMs Are Backwards
"...they force you to design schemas in your implementation language (python, javascript, java) and then export them to SQL ‘somehow’."

No, they do not. If yours does, throw it away.

MK_Dev··on Why Are Enterprises So Slow?
The article is pretty spot on. One thing the author has left out is the fact that all of the problems are magnified 100x when the people involved are incompetent, which, unfortunately, happens a lot in enterprises (one can also argue that slow speed contributes to job security under normal circumstances).

MK_Dev··on GitHub Alternatives
"A couple of years ago Microsoft was anti-open-source." The quote is from 2001 as is Ballmer's quote. Closing the article due to its lack of objectivity.

Another possibility is computing pools. If I remember correctly, something like this started happening (pools becoming too large) and they split.

MK_Dev··on Ask HN: 8 years working, now 3-4 months off to learn. Looking for advice
Not meant to steal your thread, but any advice on picking up good contract work? I'm in the exact opposite situation you're in.
MK_Dev··on Evidence of Turkish state violence in pictures
Turkey will simply deny that this ever happened but will go on to say that the a large number of the police was also injured and that the number of injured civilian protesters is vastly inflated.
