This is an instruction booklet that shows you how to build a text editor in C. If you've ever wanted to build your own text editor, here's a perfect excuse to start.

I did write my own. In C# / WinForms. A TextBox handles all the basic editing functions and I added higher-level functions.

Six years after making Unity the default user interface on Ubuntu desktops, Canonical is giving up on the project and will switch the default Ubuntu desktop back to GNOME next year. Ubuntu phones and tablets also dead, but the desktop, server, and cloud live on.

To translate; to UI that feels more like Win95 is preferred over the 'modern' UI.

I tried Ubuntu Unity. It was terrible.

"Nah, let's just make one"
(Not that Gnome is any better. I prefer Fedora with LXDE--a simple GUI that doesn't pretend to be at all sophisticated.)

Four years ago, Google started to see the real potential for deploying neural networks to support a large number of new services. Google released an exhaustive comparison of the TPU’s performance and efficiencies compared with Haswell CPUs and Nvidia Tesla K80 GPUs

Love the "Not to Scale" comment on the architecture diagram[^] (in title case, even).
No doubt added by someone of the mentality to also use "This page intentionally left blank" statements.

According to a new study involving more than 120,000 job offers transacted on Hired, a jobs marketplace for tech workers, the average female candidate is still making less than her male peers for the same work, and sometimes far less. According to the American Association of University Women, it might take another 136 years for the pay gap to disappear entirely.

According to my own intensive and back-breaking research, the problem is not as big as media wants you to think it is. Equal Pay[^]

Not where I work. I do 4x the work for less pay and I don't get any FMLA or disability time either.
If I were a female or minority I'd be an executive with diplomatic immunity.

If there truly were a gender pay gap, why not simply hire women if they're doing the same work for less?

While the current administration focuses on bringing jobs back to the United States from China and Mexico, the real threat to job loss already resides within our borders. Until they automate bad jokes, I'm gonna be allllllll right.

You shouldn't pay him -- he already gets loads of wu-maoses from ms, and doesn't give CP a cut.
Besides, his jokes are cr@p.

I'd always assumed from the quality of jokes on here that Sean Ewington was already a bot.

Silicon Valley is starting to realize that the huge talent pool of nontraditional candidates may be the answer to its pipeline problem. *briefly considers burning degree for further job opportunities*

I can honestly say that having worked with hundreds of developers in my time, I've never noticed any kind of correlation between whether or not someone has a degree and their ability to code their way out of a wet paper bag. Any company that makes a discrimination on those grounds is placing a needless and self-inflicted restriction on the pool of talent that they can draw from.
Slogans aren't solutions.

I am not saying that people without a degree can not program. I have already supported the opinion that it is not mandatory.
But, that there is a lot of people that can code doesn't mean that they can do it well. And with well I mean with methodology, following a structure, clean, secure...
And as an end note... my comment was a fully sarcastic joke due to the "IoT" news of the last weeks. There are a lot of crappy coders working on places where they shouldn't be (and I don't care if the have degree or not) and that should get their hands chopped off.
And I leave it there... if not, we will have to move this thread to the soapbox
