In my mind all these productivity systems cook down to creating a list of tasks. The list can be between 4 and 10 items. You do one task at a time and when you are finished you can cross out the task. This is the extent…
Because of inline css and different fonts on different os-es and generally no guarantees about render size. In short, you have no idea how big a block is without rendering it.
I remember the sysadmins trying to figure out why sqiud was so slow and tracing the system calls. It was because they did not use kqueue/epoll. When he asked the maintainer to improve on this he said squid was fast…
I don't understand. You complain about coworkers getting high pay and complaining while not producing any value. Do you think a downturn and potentially getting fired will educate them in this matters and getting less…
Yes, this is true as long as the method or function doesn't contain if's changing the behaviour depending on the data. In other words if the problem is so well defined that you can create a method that solves the…
The thing is that git is not supposed to be smart when it comes to merging. https://wincent.com/blog/a-look-back-bram-cohen-vs-linus-tor... At the end of the article: This is a clearly ambiguous merge and it simply…
If you are used to being the guy everybody goes to it is a big change since nobody will depend on you if you are new. But that is fine, it takes som time to get recognised in a new work environment. If you are skilled…
But then from the wikipedia page. The Online Etymology Dictionary states that the use of the term to mean "'calculating machine' (of any type) is from 1897. The Online Etymology Dictionary indicates that the "modern…
> Computers are programmable. A system created from logic gates, executing a fixed set of operations is not called a computer. Your washing machine is not a computer either. Found this quote that sums it up nicely.
> The Nimatron.” A non-programmable digital computer. How can a computer be non-programmable? The whole idea of a computer is that it runs a list of instructions.

Beware of the imposter syndrome. It never goes away. If your old code looks awful and embarrassing, you are on the right track (you are learning). Focus on learning to read code. It is more important than writing. Find…
Haha, no that was missing. I mean all the features/loggers that were used in the project mapped one to one.
I have ported a Spring Boot application from log4j to logback and it was pretty easy since we used slf4j. The code was the same, the only thing I had to do is to convert the logging configuration. The features mapped…
I think the problem here is motivation and keeping it up for so many years. Maybe there is a trick to it. Idk.
So when you sit in endless meaningless meetings and see how the management create insurmountable obstacles that make it impossible to actually do some meaningful work while whining about deadlines and changing the…
Well, my experience is that to increase productivity the most important thing is not doing things. If you can filter out the meaningless features and shut down products that are a product of politics (giving someone a…
Oh, wow. Usually I get asked to estimate with very vague descriptions of what I am going to build, with hard pressure on date of delivery. At one point I said to a manager that if he pushes hard enough he will get any…
The Commander X16 is a computer that you should be able to understand how it works. You should be able to start the computer and poke away at the hardware and see results immediately. The Amiga is better and more…
One possibility is signed PDF's. You can verify that the corporation created the document, that it has not been changed. That is more security than a piece of paper. You can forge a document.
To be more specific, get rid of setters unless it is a data object. Have all fields be final and set them in one constructor. This makes the code more readable since you know no method will change the internal state.
I think that one part is the architecture. People use patterns to divide up code with duplication and interfaces. This makes the code more complex, but has some merit as the code is more testable and extendable. The…
https://schoolyourself.org/learn/algebra is great. You start from addition subtraction and go through your list for the most part. Khan academy is great too, but with schoolyourself you can walk through it a bit faster.
A programmer likes to learn new things all the time and sees the joy in writing the same code in a new language/framework for the n-th time. A problem solver sees that it is pointless. You are just doing the same things…
