People have to eat. Maslow's hierarchy of needs and all that. Fact of the matter is Meta has problems almost no one else has. Acting like people will choose less pay and boring wor…

It's good to see that despite all of the astroturfed "Journalism" on the death of remote work the data appears to show otherwise. The engineer market dictates the terms of employme…

The problem is much deeper unfortunately. If they banned IMSI catchers it just makes the job marginally harder. When I mean marginally I truly mean MARGINALLY. Right now a police o…

Signal isn't overloaded. It's use here is the same as it's use elsewhere. It just requires contextual information to know what it means. A Qt programmer might think of signals and …

It is interesting that we can use RICO go to after mob bosses even when they have layers and layers of indirection to protect them. But with CEOs it seems RICO doesn't apply.

These interviews are not gutchecks. They are shibboleth checks. I can design you a nice document, do the research, put the pieces together, etc with the big picture. I may not know…

Yeah, I don't think I want a job that asks such questions. I've done the webscale BS. I've done actual architecture that exists in reality. At this stage in my career there's nothi…

The ACM has a strict code of conduct. If an engineer commits an atrocious error their PE will be stripped. Violating the computing rights of literally the entire planet should be s…

I meant that we should have stripped it away. Sorry that was not clear.

You might be able to handwave some things in politics. They're either too old, too lazy, etc. They're just politicians trying to find a nice box to put everything into because othe…

I am generally happy and successful. However, my childhood was filled to the gills with trauma. So much so I visited a therapist and they immediately identified it. It emerges as r…
