    I am a hiring manager and we do take home homeworks. I fully agree that this is a key piece of communication. I always take the time to tell candidates that although they have as m…

    I cannot upvote this hard enough. I see this all the time with VPNs. By having everything behind the company VPN, application security isn't taken as seriously. As a result, latera…

    A trick I often use to get the most out of messagepack is using array encoding of structs. Most msgp libraries have support for this. This gives you a key benefit of protobuf, with…

    This was one of my favorite Google products. It worked exactly as advertised, no frills. Since its release, I haven't once needed to pull out my old Brother document scanner. The m…

    I've found this difficult as well, my mother always jumped right to antibiotics and it had some pretty clear long term consequences. My approach with my kids has been to use antibi…

    For what it's worth if I ever had a candidate give me this answer on a systems design problem I'd probably immediately stop evaluating them and start selling them on the role.

    Our product supports what our customers use, which in this case was EFS. Doesn't really matter if there's better implementations available.

    NFSv4 is designed to alleviate the consistency shortcomings of NFSv3, but unfortunately I'm not aware of any client implementations that leverage the full spec as intended. The lin…

    I will have to see if their NFSv4 implementation has improved any. When I added support for EFS to my company's NFSv4 client we ran into a couple of performance bottlenecks and jus…

    Unfortunately it's common to have a policy in place disallowing 3rd-party app api access to drive storage. This prevents apps like rclone from working, but the drive client works b…

    Interesting. Out of these 5 issues I've only experienced the auto start annoyance on my Subaru crosstrek 2021. Is this limited to their higher end models?

    This is the practice we use - link to a ticket if it exists. There's nothing wrong with fixing a bug you discover upon inspection. Forcing tickets for every change discourages code…

    Yes! One that allowed me to relocate at a time that I very much needed it.

    This enables newer cards to have updated security features. If there were no expirations, then you'd just make fake ids targeting older versions.

    Yeah, Name and DOB are covered under HIPAA as PHI.

    Can't share details, I've seen the copy_file_range optimization represent roughly 25% increased throughput for a prior employer. It's more than theoretical.

    Or, perhaps, they're taking the non-networked use case.

    Do be careful doing this, if your company cares, a competent network admin can tell what's going on.

    Your skepticism made me look through the library more carefully. I came across some limitations in comparison to what Go provides: 1. As you suggest, there's no equivalent to the `…

    You're certainly not alone, but I've had such a wildly different experience. I switched to duckduckgo primarily because I preferred the search results. The privacy aspect was just …

    There's a lot of knee-jerk reaction going on in this thread, and yet I don't think this bill would actually apply to anyone complaining.

    My understanding of the bill is that the tax would apply to the strike price value. $100,000 in strike price is quite a lot more than what your typical startup employee has, and th…
