Wouldn’t shock me. I snapped back at an HN moderator for being a hypocritical ass a while back. HN is a clique.
Used to work there. Yes, he is. Absolutely. Without a second of doubt.
I used to be the same way and I found it came from overuse of types in some applications I worked on. I know the TypeScript working group at Netflix found the same thing. Generally it's best to let its type inference do…
Long story short: They solve a problem that is attractive to solve in a way that is not super useful for how most people want to develop an application. They're client side only (in practice) and poorly compatible. The…
We're everything! JS is heavily used, as is Groovy, Java, Python, C and C ++, etc. Depends on the project and the team. We're not about limiting people, but the choice should be justifiable (like... Brainfuck is…
It doesn’t have to be function calls though. Conceptually it’s a nested model, that’s it. It could quite easily be a series of nested objects. The point is not that it abstracts functions it’s that it abstracts nested…
Nothing you described there is “agile” however. In fact they run counter to every fundamental thing agile stands for. Sounds like your company slammed an agile label on a broken process and thought it would fix it.…
Potential utility is different to actual utility though. Is that stuff actually useful to them right now? Or in general? If the answer is no then it has zero utility.
> WebGL commands don't need to be called via JS after anyref and host bindings land So they DO need to be called by JS now. Which was what they said. The WASM advocates obsession with features that don’t exist yet and…
Conversely - Privacy is becoming a bigger and bigger issue and there is only one company that has shown any ability in that area to stand up for it in fundamental design choices. And that's Apple. There will never be a…
Yes. Just is different forms. C++ has been through similar compatibility hell.
If I had to guess it’ll be some kind of named Symbol under the hood.
So what you’re saying is that you, and the authors of the article, failed the Untellectual Turing Test then? Because that’s verifiably nonsense if you actually talked to anyone liberal. Most liberal policy even stems…
Main difference is that a "grilled cheese" is two slices with cheese in between (usually). Cheese on Toast is, by its very name, where the cheese is on the toast. An open-faced grilled cheese if you will.
If someone isn’t performing in their role the way the company wants (this may be due to many things, interests, changing role requirements, etc. Doesn’t say anything about the skill of the person involved) and doesn’t…
We’re heavy users of LOTS of languages at Netflix to be fair. Clojure included.
> So every employee gets to be badmouthed in front of as many as hundreds of former co-workers, as Netflix's special parting gift? Well no. It’s usually very positive about them and generally sad that things couldn’t be…
If it was a fear based culture I would agree with you - I’ve worked in those & left as fast as I could. Netflix is not even close to that in my experience, nor have I seen any evidence of that in the engineering teams…
LOL what? BASIC has been around since before Microsoft was even a glint in Gates & Allen’s eyes. Since 1964 to be exact. While many 8-bit versions of BASIC were derived from MS BASIC (1975) it was hardly Microsoft’s…
Well if you’re going to plain lie about my actions on this site (viewable to all) then what would be the point?
I work at a public company that doesn’t offer RSUs. Neither did the last one I was at. You’re plain wrong.
Including the value of stock options in those figures is incredible bullshitting. For those wondering: the “first rung” is more like $110k plus stock options (which you have to pay for - they’re not RSUs - so calling…
In SF yes, not the Bay as a whole (which is the cited area)
I know a guy with a Tesla that drives for Uber. Some people just like driving & side hustles
Literally the most successful state in the nation but... k. Care to get specific?
