First off, the author of fasthttp has made some great packages that I do use in production. However, last time I looked fasthttp was great if you don't care about http2 support or …

I once ran an "embedded" Linux on a $10 marvel SOC. It was a pretty vanilla kernel running a basic Debian install. 10MB out of 128MB RAM used most of the time. Obviously you can go…

I once worked at a company with no product management experience. Because of this they hired a string of toxic Steve Jobs wannabees because they simply didn't know what they didn't…

Easy: recruiter asked me if I wanted to work remote. I said writing go and working remote and getting paid bay area comp sounds good. But of course becoming the person that recruit…

I promise you. If you ignore the churn and learn the fundamentals, your skills will have an order of magnitude longer shelf life. If you know js and web standards then anything on …

In case you didn't know the author has built the programming language that formed the backbone of some of the original multithreaded web servers that reached an incredible scale fo…

Terrible idea: could you write a transpiler for rust that basically auto-wrapped everything in a Gc type and auto-dereferenced?

Sure. If you are a CDN right now you can host multiple customers on one ip. If you are using TLS there are 2 ways to do this: 1. Have a big SAN cert with lots of names. 2. Use SNI …

Thanks for the heads up. I've made some proxy software that routes on SNI. If TLS1.3 drops SNI then I feel like that will accelerate ipv6 adoption because we're going to need a shi…

> It's bizarre to me that you think that whiteboard coding tests "communication", in any way. It's not like a presentation, or anything. I feel like we're probably at an impasse if…

That's an excellent idea. I'm in no way saying the existing method is perfect. Just that some of the things it tests around communication and being put on the spot and analyzing a …

> Whiteboard interviews test one thing well: How well does a candidate code on a whiteboard. What if you consider part of someone's job to be communicating concepts to people, poss…

Yeah that's already happened and it's discoverable enough that I wandered onto one of those pages by accident when signing up.

I agree. I have, at different companies, for the last 6 years, asked people to do a small take home problem that should take a couple hours. BTW I'm aware that some people feel lik…

I agree with Craigslist. It's a cesspool. The paradox of freelance is that generally people treat you better and have more reasonable expectations if they are paying you more.

I was once in a similar situation. I was a first generation college student and I moved away from home right around the time my mom started having grand Mal seizures from a brain t…

I find that I don't need a debugger until I do. People are always asking me what debugger I use for go and I tell them I've gone months without feeling the need for them. However e…

I think it's because they've seen exactly where saying "yes" leads them and they don't like that place.
