I'm curious, what do you love about JavaScript?

I believe that PG makes a very interesting point in Hackers and Painters saying that one shouldn't discuss about whether something is sexist, racist or offensive but rather just whether it is accurate or not.

I would be interested in hearing why so many people downvoted a fairly neutral question. Please let me know.

I always wonder how people external to an organisation can judge the work of an executive. Are you maybe solely looking at outcomes, that may only slightly be influenced by his decisions and dominated by randomness and other factors anyway?

Why would you need to introduce your co-workers to Emacs? I have recently got in touch with clojure and developed in atom with parinfer. Was I missing out on something or is the difference between clojure and common lisp decisive?

For what reason is it now easier than ever?

I agree that there are ways to stay connected with the ones who 'matter'. However to me, there are many people who 'don't matter', yet with whom I'd like to stay in touch. In other words, I see three types of relations instead of 2. And for this type of inbetween 'people who matter' and 'people who I generally know but whom I don't want to meet', I am not willing to pay the extra effort of maintaining the connection without facebook.

I have always been wondering whether there are actually people preferring alt over super as mod. Now I know. :)

Tbh most recruiters (from startups to large software companies) I engaged with so far have been attentive and respectful, sometimes even very nice on a personal level. I find it quite hard to judge them professionaly as I do not know what they know. So what do you dislike about recruiters?

What makes a person like Steve Mercer, being extremely well educated and highly successful take part in such dubious procedures? Will a personal experience drive one into being involved in Breitbart and such or is clinical financial calculation fueling such decisions?

It's Robert Lewandowski

I guess the key here is that this list is based on principles and not just a list of activities I would consider advantageous to have done in some sense or another.

Those principles ought to be chosen as to align with my convictions and expectations from life. So you could say that I know that this list is the intersection of things I consider worthy doing (and immediately have a well-formed reason for their worthiness at the back of my mind) and recreation.

When a moment for recreation has come, there is nothing that makes me question whether I should do something from the list or not because I am reassured that I have thought of this sufficiently in advance to determine the best for me.

> If you never allow yourself mental downtime, then everything you do feels like work.

What makes you believe that what reedlaw described is not to be considered mental downtime? I have made quite the opposite experience: when consciously reflecting and deciding about my mental downtime in advance, it turns out to be the most recreative. It's worth noting that I made bad experiences with: tomorrow from 7-730 I will be reading/running/cooking/medidate/watching an educational video for recreational purposes. The way to go for me is to predefine a set of activities which I support based on a principle. When in the situation for donwtime, I then choose from this set.

Edit: typo

What has been the initial motivation for this procedure? Just gathering the data and rejecting people not willing to give in or actually looking for red flags justifying the denial of entry? If the latter applies, what does the set of red flags look like? I assume the given example in the article is not part of the initial motivation but rather consequence of misbehaviour of the guard.

Why shouldn't it have any apps on it? From my understanding, the point is that the crucial subset of user data is not available in that usage mode.

Thanks for pointing this out.
