I've "used" it in pretty much every Go project I've worked on but almost always in the form of an HTTP handle middleware. Write once, maybe update once a year when we have a change…

Bose headphones are a lot cheaper than the extra floor(s) they'd need to rent to give everyone an office

This is me as well. I can remember code snippets down to line numbers. I can remember what, who and why decisions where made (from jobs I last worked at 5+ years ago). I can rememb…

The classic crypto phrase "choose the team". When the team consists of one person with a monkey as their profile picture and no other details other than he's rich, another is a 20y…

Also to think that an engineer who’s intentionally joined a company to work on AI self driving tech wouldn’t immediately quit when they where forced to move and work on Twitter con…

I think there's a combination of both. I'm interested by the concept of the blockchain but I'm also apprehensive of the companies/projects that are created on it (for a lot of the …

This. Web3 companies are willing to pay ridiculous amounts of money plus they are willing to pay those high salaries no-matter where you are based. The fully remote salaries I've s…

A lot of Fintechs get their banking license in Lithuania now for the EU

And you basically have all the downsides of being full time in office. Have to live within commuting distance, have to buy the train/bus season tickets (or have a working car and f…

Things like mobile/webisite analytics events. User A clicked this menu item, User B viewed this images etc All streamed into S3 in chunks of smallish files. It's cheaper to store t…

Doubt they care too much about bad words in commit messages, what they should worry about is if they've ever checked in passwords/secrets/private keys and not re-written the git hi…

Excellent drinking-game tv! Take a shot every time Kevin says "bespoke"

On the other hand, it would be nice to know the core languages in play. I have no interest in working in Java anymore, I avoid job listings for companies that would expect me to wr…

It's unfortunate though that medical professionals have a deep misstrust/hatred for new technology due to bad experiences from poorly run it contracting. My mum worked for the NHS …

At this point I think I'd rather have Peter Capaldi acting as Malcolm Tucker running Whitehall over the shower of incompetent people we have now. At least he might get something do…

I don't think I could ever use Bitcoin for regular transactions, even if it became as stable as USD. As soon as someone gets your bitcoin address they can see your full transaction…
