Unless you're regularly sanitizing them, there's a good chance the insides get various kinds of dirty, including possibly carrying COVID-19. Furthermore, you're potentially cross contaminating using these in one place then another.

Software engineer/architect/tech lead here. There's no phone-answering when I'm on my bike, but I'll check email when I stop for a break. Most of my rides are 30 minutes or less, there's no fire so great ...

Own a Subaru, have decent rubber, will travel. Carry some extra food and water, and be dressed for the circumstances. Done!

Re: What Do You Mean, Coding?

andrewbadera — Tue, 05 Nov 2013 12:18:11 -0000

I write a lot of code. I'm mostly self taught, starting at the age of 7.
The best business coders I know are all self taught.

The most innovative coders I know in general are all self taught.

The brainiest geniuses who write the most amazing code, ideate and create the most amazing systems, I see in my day-to-day, always-online, always-building, always-writing techie life? Are self-motivated people who constantly teach themselves, but most often, also have a stellar CS-heavy educational background as well. Not all of them, however.

As a former startup CTO in the online fundraising space, and this is a few years back now, it pretty much felt like you were coerced into having these logos. Whether it was marketing, or true user behavior, there was a level of belief that, if you didn't have these logos, people who had these logos were getting business you were losing.

Maybe if the TSA agents weren't a bunch of unfit panzies the cop wouldn't have had to do their job. These people have "badges" and are part of a "security agency" and can't handle one unarmed female without outside assistance? Gosh darn appalling.
