this. propbably the best comment on this thread

ofc. VC just tells the startup exactly what to do.

It's funny how all these techies cant apply their own best development principles (e.g use sensible defaults) to real life.

IYI

yes omg... some banks are more dodgy than others. why didn't they keep their money at chase

I have no idea who you are. but i dont care: if you take risks you should have skin in the game. what empathy do you expect if you don't have any ?

Hum, no?

I would say a prerequisite for safe retirement is to have enough to buy a home outright in cash, otherwise mortgages will weigh you down like a stone:6% interest on a 1 million gbp loan in the UK is unpayable for majority of people even in London and yet you wont find anything worth buying there below that price.

Also we should stop saying a house has equity: it doesn't. You are a paying off a loan for a commodity. A house is like a car or groceries: necessary, yes, but not an investment, unless its luxury. This is how we exploded house prices.

But perhaps we should not be surprised by the lack of interest in fraud exhibited by Twitter’s former management. The tech industry in general suffers from a cancerous disposition towards encouraging fake traffic, fake users, and fake online activity because it makes businesses appear to be more successful than they really are. Criminals are fed millions of dollars by executives who think that price is worth paying if it will mislead investors into believing inflated valuations. The presumption is that current losses are also worth sustaining because the business will turn today’s paper valuation into real value at some vaguely-defined point in the future.

That's it. If you can't figure someone's intentions, look at their actions, and infer the intentions.

The non-recursive approach would first refactor A into a new private method C that is clearly documented (often with a naming convention as well) to assume that it is called while under lock. Then both A and B call C while holding the lock.

I'm sorry but that's literally advocating for spaghetti code. If the author really wrote a lot of real world code, it doesn't look like it was clean or well structured.

Software takes a lot of effort to write, and much less to maintain.

ahahahahahahhahaaha

Have you even written a line of code in your life ???

This is the most brazenly wrong statement I've heard on this website. We are in dire need of a correction ...

Accountable for what exactly ? What happenes to "It's a private company, they can do whatever they want?" ?
