Last year, an Innovation Hero championed a completely new build system based on their homegrown version of asdf, essentially. I was the one who had to stay late multiple Fridays making sure our Formal Builds would still…
I think your point here should resonate louder (at least where I live in the USA). Jumping in and out of the "gifted" track should be possible if such a thing exists; however to your point, how would the track be…
I would prefer the SVG itself but this is an ideal short term solution. Thank you very much!
This is a wonderful tool for simple flow charting. I agree with other posters that a little more documentation would be nice and would also like to request the ability to export the underlying SVG (I'm still browsing…
I agree with your comment but I wanted to share: I have constructed the argument before that if you consider functionality as an asset and code as a liability, you can consider a refactor as retained earnings (or…
Yes and, since I had a good manager, I was rewarded when "the next person" came along and the amount of time required to onboard dropped from one month to two weeks. Everything in that situation came down to…
I think the McMansion idea is great. I had a flashback of playing the board game Clue (http://www.hasbro.com/common/instruct/clue_%282002%29.pdf) with my siblings when I was younger. Specifically, I imagined a small…
My statement on the 60/40 work/life balance was a conclusion based on my own bias, which I forgot to specify. Thank you for your feedback! You are correct that the best hires tend to pursue employment that complements…
In my experience interviewing candidates, cultural fit largely outweighs other technical merits. I try to keep this in mind when I'm asked for my opinion. While the questions in this article appear biased towards a…
I don't have any factual link handy but don't a small percentage of startups take off? I remember reading here on HN that a VC will invest a little money in a lot of companies knowing (hoping?) that most ideas will…
This looks like a lot of fun but I'm surprised to see this in Java. Nothing against Java, the JVM, or the ecosystem surrounding it; I expected to see a REST interface, or something similar. Having read Artificial…
I recommend looking into a large company that lets you move around (specifically let me recommend Boeing). I have changed groups several times and there is very little stigma assuming you can get yourself up to speed in…
You are absolutely correct that he does not accomplish these things on his own. That is a valid point that can be said of many people today. Having read books like "Good to Great" and "Creative Capital" and given my own…
Consider the field from its inception and how it has changed over time. We move into higher abstractions and release ourselves from having to worry about details such as memory management. Even so, as an embedded…
