Well if you can't, then I guess we shouldn't be complaining about feeding brains and average employees who just want to follow specs

This just sounds like someone who can't write good specs

It's because defining requirements is someone else's job, so if you get involved, you will be doing part of their job while you might already be working at your capacity. The Agile…

How sure are you they are incompetent vs. just not giving any fucks/disconnected from the job and there to get paid (it's objective one after all!) This seems a little inconsistent…

> I remembered the account of developers committing bugs so that reviewers were forced to find something instead of just giving the all clear. You'd be better off pair programming …

It would be nice if only the people with real conviction were doing things by choice, but that isn't realistic. Most people are compelled to have a job, and the system has no guara…

There's two abuses in this system you have to watch out for: - being presented under-cooked ideas so you do the thinking for them. - too many ideas (which can lead to the first) wi…

>Comparison to the rest of the market (on both sides) is the crux here, not being 'honest' or whatever (what does this even mean). Isn't it? That market comparison is fraught with …

They should remove the L4 from the job post title if that's the case, or replace it with (L1 - L7) so it's clear it's for broad levels of experience

How far are they going to go to validate it’s legit if you make one up? But say you don’t want to forge one for just any company because that might not be legal. You could make you…

Most people don't know what a $400k Security Engineer actually does to warrant that pay because you can probably find a similar job at another company that pays much less and proba…

>The GPTs/GPT Agents and Assistants demos in particular showed that they are a black box within a black box within a black box that you can't port anywhere else. This just rings ho…

You need specific hardware for Win 11. A motherboard for a Ryzen 7 I bought in only 2017 doesn't qualify.

I doubt any military or strategically important applications will be regulated

Better than companies doing their own thing and not having any restrictions or oversight at all. Remember that those companies will get rid of some portion of their workers as soon…

>Your commit message should have a short title explaining the change and the body should go into as much detail as necessary into why the change took place, I can see the what from…

If you do it for yourself, that's great, but you should withhold the benefits of that from the company if they aren't going to reward you for being better.

But why should any of us bother picking up new skills and adjusting mindsets if the author has to fight for a raise after saving the company $500k? Secondarily, why should the auth…

My guess is they aren't seeing how much they're going to need for retirement (maybe it's much cheaper in Finland than the US), or have not thought about it, or have accepted/decide…

The biggest looming factor is that many jobs in the US are at-will employment, so while people can have good intentions and share those with you, the person or company can turn aro…

>The trust that’s given to employees will be returned tenfold–or even hundredfold. Everyone wins. I must be a mercenary because that still reads to me as "we can do these things in…

I wish, but those things are heinously expensive for what you get

>It is a natural consequence of people who only “develop” by gluing things together. God help them if they’d actually have to write some core function themselves. That's on the ind…

I just don't see it mattering long-term. We bounced back from the dotcom crash to even higher levels. Same with other downturns. The importance of tech hasn't declined any. There a…
