If you ask your doctor about testing for potential "food intolerance", I imagine they'll know what you're interested in. Many (most?)tests will cover an array of foods and/or food groups with a single blood test.

The article refers to Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" in conjunction with "strategic and propagandist" friendships. The book is often referenced in this manner but it's important to note that Carnegie emphasizes one's approach to friendship must be genuine -- anything less rings hollow and is easily spotted as fraud.

Proto-hipster?

Ah, the beta presupposition: SQLite version 3.8.0 is actually one of the most heavily tested SQLite releases ever. Thousands and thousands of beta copies have be downloaded, and presumably tested...

I should clarify that I'm not advocating the approach, rather just stating that I've seen it work in several organizations. Those cases were mixed, some accepted a counter others were up front, essentially saying "Look, do I need to go and get another offer for us to work this out?".

If I'm not mistaken, the thought behind not accepting counters is that it breeds resentment. In reality, I think it depends on how tactfully the process is handled.

Personally, my approach has been to hop and not accept counters.

It's a sad reality. I'd add that it's often not necessary to go so far as leaving the job. Rather threatening to leave can be enough to render the same boost, assuming you've got the stomach for playing that kind of game.

I think this is a very accurate reflection of life as a young parent. I find myself in the very same situation. I'm still figuring it out myself but one way that I've been able to pursue hobbies and side-projects is to keep my expectations in check. Taking projects in bite-size chunks has helped to keep me motivated and allowed me to enjoy some sense of accomplishment (outside of parenting) without becoming overwhelmed.

I admire someone who can conclude that their lifestyle would not be conducive to raising a child as much as I admire a great parent. Ultimately, the worst scenario would be to have a child you were unfit to care for. That said, I think a lot of couples wrestling with this question are rather tough on themselves. More are fit for this sort of thing than they might realize.

Conversations about "learning to code" frighten me because they overlook a necessary foundation in engineering concepts like abstraction and the value of simplicity. If you're looking to hire software developers, stop interviewing "coders".

Semantically speaking, I don't think you have to disagree with this. Small talk and trifling conversation are not necessarily one in the same. "Trifling" implies that there is little value. Small talk may in fact have great value if it helps to forge connections that pay off later.

The intent was that a twitter user could reserve the same username for App.net. In reality, you can reserve any username -- it doesn't have to be a twitter handle.

Often times the prospective company will ask you outright if they can contact your current employer. Companies with a formal application process may prompt you in the documentation they ask you to fill out.

Regardless, there is no harm in saying no. It's the norm for folks that are exploring other opportunities. The only time it may be questionable is if you've already left (or been let go by) your previous employer.

>> "Reamde" is disposable Stephenson. I'll take disposable Stephenson over no Stephenson at all.

Vinh's response is really true of any collaborative creative environment, from the arts to engineering. To evaluate or re-design outside of the context of the original project (it's requirements, business goals, stakeholders, etc.) can only yield an irrelevant conclusion.
