And they wouldn't want to know what's really on them as well

I imagine with many tests, even at 0.1% eventually you'll get some false positive due to human error, or other things going wrong

It's still funny!

> If you are introduced to someone (a stranger), it is normal courtesy to shake hands with him/her (and that's it, no hugs, no kisses), as well, unless the other person is an old f…

It's widely known state of things because of the current situation (low interest rates for very long time, etc.). Infact, many financial institutions and experts have been of the i…

Because writing documentation after the implementation is hard and error-prone. I've found that writing the documentation before and using it as guide for developers works best.

Tech has become much more self-referential in the last years. Now we do tools that help build a system that can build an app to cash in minimal productivity gains

For performance context: nginx on a $5 DO droplet does 600 requests per second on static file. Serving static files with Elixir/Phoenix has a performance of 300 requests per second…

Before you get on a technical interview, an automated system, an HR person and a project manager (or similar) will have to pass on the application, which encourages putting buzzwor…

Is that really a problem in the country of the Silicon Valley? Actually, that might be the only thing preventing this from happening.

These companies are losing customers. That is never good for business. Eventually, someone will take the matter into his own hand and start making 80s-like tractors, so these compa…

Non-native apps can be as performant as native ones. I imagine they checked alternatives to Electron and figured a native app would allow them to have better OS integration.

That's exactly the point he's making. If you use a frontend js framework and you have to do SSR, then there's no longer any reason to use a JS frontend framework, because the reaso…

I find it ironic and explicatory of the incompentency level we have reached in IT today. Technologies used outside of their context and "developers" having to deal with complex pro…

Further from the same article: You don't have to live in a great city your whole life to benefit from it. The critical years seem to be the early and middle ones of your career. Cl…

There's a good reason for that: US does not really need to put backdoors in software to spy. They have the largest tech companies under their legislation and can already force them…

Corporations have been using open source to exert technological dominance and push standards that favour their agenda for some time. It's proving so effective to have direct contro…
