"Average people are saving enough for an emergency." Am I missing something here?

We've come a long ways with MFE and will be going even further with the advent of webpack 5 federated modules: https://federated-libraries.now.sh/

#22 got me "Have you ever tried to use the xaml designer for... like... anything? Yeah I thought you'd enjoy that one."

Looks like he's no longer around.

As someone who is a Sr. Software Engineer at this point in my life, I started in mechanical engineering. I've been on both sides of the table for both positions and the differences…

I second this heavily. I've implemented a 3d scene renderer for 3D CAM software in the past and have been wanting to get back into some 3D things to practice math as I've been feel…

But don't conflate tough with what frustrates people. I spent 2-3 years designing and building 3D CAM software that presented MANY challenging problems from abstracting platform AP…

Legacy code is always frustrating. I had to pick up Delphi at one point to fix a bug in an application who's only job was to relay specific windows messages (essentially a broker).…

I walk away if they won't compensate me. Not worth my time or the time of any engineer. Usually the tasks are remedial like "visualize this api using x tech with y library". Things…

Just another reason not to ever work for Amazon...

When I first started my adventure into deep learning I became convinced that even a simple dense network could be used for storing and generating variations of 3D content. I never …

I've been freelancing/contracting for a few years now and have never had a problem finding work that I enjoy, but the hiring process can be a nightmare. This is the point where I u…

If you don't know anything about vectors, start with some game programming. If you are talking things more along the lines of Hilbert Spaces or advanced physics, there's no alterna…

Thought this may be of use for journalists or anyone interested in money's influence in politics. I whipped this up over the last few days and could use some contributors if anyone…
