I also suspect those who have decided to leave their employer will be more likely to create, maintain, and even keyword stuff the skills listed on their LinkedIn profile. This woul…

And despite the click bait "billions wasted" headline, at no point does the article offer any information on the alleged billions wasted.

It's global news to me. Hello from Australia! Edit: Ah wait, I think I get what you mean. By "global news" you mean it's been deemed worthy of sharing to an international audience …

Argument from authority is a pernicious fallacy, and typically effective too. You were right to call it out. I must admit I overlooked the sarcasm, however.

The comments section gives me intense astroturfing vibes, especially the way it abruptly starts and stops between 2014. Edit: Although the negative comments stop too. Maybe people …

> In a practical world this is an outrageously useless platitude. As an industry we went from treating engagement as an art form, to treating it as an optimisation problem. Along t…

While the analogy they offered may not be a good fit, I agree with the sentiment. My takeaway was not that addicts have zero agency or ability to help themselves, but that it's une…

See https://www.datastax.com/our-people/jonathan-ellis Wikipedia lists them as a founder. Perhaps their author bio is outdated, or Wikipedia is. Not sure about your friend.

Not the original commenter, but I have often been asked by non-technical colleagues to answer questions about a spreadsheet they've sourced from someone/somewhere else. "So-and-so …

I don't understand why there's so much negativity here. From my cursory perusal of the docs this looks like a simplified, vendor agnostic re-imaging of something like CDK, with coo…

There's a GitHub link to source in the top-right corner, if you're interested: https://github.com/feross/magickeyboard.io

Are they capable of fulfilling the role of primary learning material? Or are they supplementary to more traditional texts?

It must be that time of the year again: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=Papers+We+Love Edit: Not meant as snark, just a playful observation of how often this is shared. Remains a worthy …

> Private college prep secondary schools (at the very least—often it's private schools all the way) on the other hand are overwhelmingly the norm in that set. To which data set are…

Malware on the user's machine could catch the password in either case.

This is frequently still beneficial for the organisation, even when you're doing it for the wrong reasons, and is almost a necessary stepping stone towards achieving true understan…

Why do you consider this to be a mistake? I've thought about this in the past, but can't really articulate my motivations, and in the end I haven't followed through. Some of my pre…

Great overview with a minor nit-pick; it's Cross-Origin Resource Sharing rather than Request Sharing. It describes a server's willingness to share its resources across origins. The…

For those using Java, it's also possible to achieve this using Testcontainers[0]. It's nice to have the test DB setup co-located with your test code, and if you're using JUnit it's…

Ah right, you did say that! My fault for not reading the article more carefully!

If you're developing apps in containers, there are platforms that make it really simple to deploy. For example, Cloud Run (Google), Fargate (AWS), or Heroku. What the parent commen…

It's probably fine, but reading about a single Postgres container in a Kubernetes cluster with backups to S3 gives me sweaty palms. I hope the author has fully tested their disaste…
