Yet another web site where leaving a comment would require authorising them to hoover my contacts.
I think I'll avoid that.

But 88 percent report of hiring managers report that it's "very difficult" or "somewhat difficult" to find qualified candidates. The only problem: they want the 'free as in beer' employees

|
That's "qualified" as in "a qualified statement".

I would think I'd be getting tons of calls on this, I've been using Linux-salve for quite some time.

In this blog post I’ll walk you through some tips you can use to improve the performance of your debug sessions and include instructions for how you can provide feedback that will help us improve the areas that matter most to you. Debugging? Funny word. What does it mean?

Nothing about conditional breakpoint performance. 
The last time I had to debug something in a hot loop I found that inserting a few lines of code like:
int foo;
if ()
foo = 1;
Was more than an order of magnitude faster than setting a conditional breakpoint.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Ugh — another week, another nasty widespread security bug to worry about. The twist this time: this one has apparently been around since the 90s. "Aaahh Freak out"

This new BitTorrent program makes network file sharing between devices easier than ever. As opposed to all the stuff you usually find on BitTorrent

I use BitTorrent to transfer stuff all of the time.
I blew a colleagues mind the other day when he needed to send me a 150MB PSD file, and was asking me whether it was better to use something like Mega or get some Windows Folder sharing action on the go (in the same office, neither of us had a USB key handy).
I pointed out that he could create a torrent of the file and send me the magnet link, and I could torrent it over the LAN. Doesn't matter if one of us restarts our computer etc (or the connection drops, we have a pretty choppy LAN at the best of times), it will just pick up where it left off.
Literally any time I need to transfer big files from anywhere to anywhere else, I just get BitTorrent on the go and let it work away.
Awesome technology, shame it has a reputation for being only used for copyright infringement!

New research finds that, contrary to popular belief, restructuring software code to be more maintainable and efficient may not be worth the time and effort. "How can you mend a broken heart?"
|
|
|
|
|
The research needs a re-factoring.

My conclusion after reading the article:
"Don't rely on college students to analyze or refactor your code"

We have a winner!

Bullshit. At the very least, if you're refactoring bad code at least you aren't writing more bad code. QED.
|
|
|
|

I kind of agree, refactoring for the sake of refactoring is kind of pointless!...
Refactoring to fix bug or refactoring to add new feature or change behavior! Or refactoring what is still fresh in your mind but you came with a better idea!
Now that is different!....

That wasn't a study, it was a pointless attempt to gain some graduate students media attention.
A study with one, count 'em one data point isn't a study; it's advertising.
