A better way of saying it is that the whole of investors are better at accurately predicting the value of a company than individual investors. Which sounds almost like a truism when you put it in those terms.
Nerds never seem to catch on that dismissing criticism as an ad-hominem is itself an ad-hominem.
It probably depends on the company but I think this is right. If I interview someone with little working experience it definitely helps that they have some work on Github. But it would be strange to reject a senior…
Exactly. The biggest impediment is going to be insurance and liability. What do you think it will cost to insure a robotic driving vehicle? On whom does the liability fall in the case of an accident – the owner, or the…
I think the companies that hire an army of 23-25 year olds are planning to fail fast anyway. Why bother trying to recruit older, more senior talent that is going to expect higher benefits if the skills that they bring…
Not being able to serialize an empty string is abysmally poor design.
So it correlates either to a lazy developer or a really good developer? That isn't much of a correlation.
They already are. I've talked to some recruiters who laugh at bootcamp programs on a resume. A few years ago nobody would ask me about my academic background in a job interview, but now they've started asking…
My point is that you likely learned programming by learning the basics of file I/O in C or Python or something similar. You didn't sit down and learn all about automata theory etc. first. You need the context of what…
It's really frustrating that articles like this never state if they are comparing inflation-adjusted numbers or not.
You write tests to automate tests you would have to otherwise perform manually. That is the only reason tests exist, to automate the boring task of testing. That's one problem with the TDD mindset. If you start by…
It's hard to teach an introduction to programming without teaching a particular language. If you have to pick a particular language, it makes sense to choose something the student is likely to use in the future. This is…
