This may be a cynical take, but as someone with 10+ years of experience why should I care if companies are too short sighted to value and train juniors?

That's ... an interesting observation. I've found that LLMs work great when they can check their work and have a clear notion of what correct looks like. e.g. a good test suite the…

I fully agree that most people won't be comfortable if they're the "only" man or woman at the party. How do you suggest evening genders out? Inviting couples is fine by definition;…

How would you handle the case where you want to trace 100% of errors? Presumably you don't know a trace is an error until after you've executed the thing and paid the price.

It's more accurate to say those do the boilerplate of memory access necessary for complex types for you. You're still basically limited to integers and floats. But when you think a…

Can you elaborate a bit on codeowners, I've not heard of that kind of solution before.

No joke, I used to work there until they went RTO. But I liked the product. It's crazy that our politicians can trade like they do.

100% I've had great success inviting people to dinner parties and such. This works great for people I already know. I've tried hosting public groups, with partial success. Have you…

To be clear; you're supposed to have a separate shell open where you do these steps? MM, interesting idea.

Thank you!

What are planets, in this context?

Sounds like cool tech, but why would I want to run Linux in my browser? What use cases does this enable? Thanks

I'm living this life right now; except we baked in notions of Assets/Liabilities/Income/Expenses into our ledger logic. Only to realize our customers don't care and just want to do…

Most of the time I've just had a completely sleepless night; I normally just muddle through with a lot of coffee. I've tried taking a sick day for this sort of thing, but I found t…

In the FAQ they indicate they raised funds from investors.

Oh undoubtedly they'll make a nice editor; I just think it's a tough thing to monetize when there's so many 'good enough' free editors around.

How are these guys funding a startup for the Nth text editor? If they have the guts to try this full time I suppose there's really no excuse for me not having a go at my own thing.…

That sounds like a great manager. Not really the same situation as what I saw.

I suppose this makes more sense, though I feel like if they'd put in even a partial effort they could've dragged it out much longer than they did. Boom, FAANG wages at boring mid-w…

Correct, I myself am fully remote.

I only mean AWOL in that they aren't available/online/in-office. So just cashing paychecks without actually doing anything.

My job recently decided to return-to-office, which put me back on the market for a fully remote job. It got me thinking to the other times I've moved on from a company, with 2x of …

Potential technical co-founder here. Also on the y combinator matching platform... If I landed on your profile, I'd probably send a match invite. The only things I'd want to talk a…

Location: Poulsbo, WA Remote: yes Willing to relocate: no Technologies: 10 years+ full stack web development experience. Typescript/C#/Java/Rust/various SQL etc. Résumé/CV: https:/…

Hey memset, If you're still looking for someone, I'd be happy to chat with you. I'm an ex-Facebook engineer, but I'd be willing to consider a part time thing if it covers my living…
