>But hey talk is cheap and you seem to know a lot - so how about you link an open source project you've published ;) I wrote tech docs explaining the jungle of IT systems that we w…

False dichotomy, and if you actually witness this first hand and only have two options in your candidate pool, you might need to spread your net a bit further. Also the original po…

>that's a huge groan and turn off and you lose tons of strength (credibility) as a candidate. Toxic and off putting. You put too much weight on relatively minor things. It’s preven…

>Any virus writer is going to know how to use public-private crypto to encrypt the files in a non-reversible way. Flatly untrue. They are people capable of mistakes. Viruses are of…

It needs to be billed and itemized then because that's racketeering language.

Plus they're likely doing something they enjoy.

>the shift towards spacial minimalism suits me nicely. It hasn't for me. Rent has gone in the opposite direction as I've downsized. We haven't optimized low-cost, small, quality ho…

>There were so many times where an engineer would start blabbling big terms to avoid doing something or an PM spouts MBA Bullshit... Well that just tells you everything you'd want …

It isn't just the older generation (and actions done 20-30 years ago) doing dumb things and getting shamed for it. The newer generation grows up without learning the implications o…

Honestly what should your salary be if you have domain expertise and are good with data science tools (and tools surrounding them like git, CI/CD, etc.)?

>Feels like it's a very high false positive rate and one that pushes all the time costs onto the applicant (multiply ~2hr by say 5 companies that want you to do a coding challenge)…

I think the biggest motivation is impact -- I want to do something more useful than company or marketing websites. Tools or websites that someone relies on and that I can take some…

This is a good technical approach but if you get this far, your salary won't match the value delivered by your actual skillset. Companies know this. There's not appropriate compens…

>At the end of the day, all you can do is take solace in the fact that you know they copied you even if they wont admit it. I'd avoid getting into that mindset. Fight tooth and nai…

Who fasts with distilled water? Is this a thing now? It's dangerous because it will dilute electrolyte concentrations in your body. Drink tap/bottled water. Distilled water is comp…

I thought CF had a reputation of being insecure though?

Undergrad/transfer and unsure. I know that's broad but I'm at the early stages of considering, but if all of the sub fields have a pretty high demand, I think that's a good sign. I…

I'm thinking about going to school for this major and I've been wanting to do something on the side with my development skills related to it. There's pet projects with data crunchi…

IF is better because unlike fad diets, you aren't actually buying anything new, and the discipline to do the fasting (IMO) helps avoid overeating or unhealthy choices by default. I…

Ancillary point: there was too much coding standards as tribal knowledge in this, and a lot of cases. Many times developers get held to standards that they didn’t know existed. Thi…

Unknown: when random CEO idea occurs Known: we’re definitely rewriting it in two years regardless of this CEO feature The feature probably isn’t that complicated anyway Maybe if yo…

TBH if the thing is getting rewritten every two years because of $new_paradigm, code quality matters less. It would be nice if, given a task, we could teach people to choose the ri…
