I’m pretty sure GP is saying if you already had an account and you delete it, it’s trivially easy for someone to register with your old handle and impersonate you Of course people can always impersonate you but the goal…
I’ve never heard anyone brag about giving working PIPs. PIPs are pretty demoralizing even if they “work”. Maybe you should consider giving people feedback in non-PIP form!
There’s no reason you can’t do both, and indeed some a11y linters recommend doing that
I'm in the same boat as GP. Was invited early, loved the Arc UX far more than any other browser. I've recommended it to many people. As many other comments have pointed out, this vulnerability is such a rookie mistake…
Also it requires both hands
Not GP but I would never use bare JS again for anything other than maybe like a 20 line script, for the same reasons as GP
Paying a non-trivial portion of your engineers high salaries will kill any startup without unlimited money, regardless of what other guardrails you have in place.
This is the weirdest sentiment out of the entire article. "Only hire A-players" and "monitor them". I know exactly 0 A-hire engineers who would tolerate being monitored. Why wouldn't they leave to go to one of the many…
Lots of comments here saying "it's just marketing". I agree to some extent, but Datadog is easily the worst offender I've ever seen. I work on a small engineering team and more than half the team got calls to their…
I haven’t seen anyone saying the founders shouldn’t have done this or that they wouldn’t have done the same in their shoes. I’m allowed to be happy for the founders and also hate Adobe and worry about the future of a…
For me, the unsettling part is that this has to be done virtually now. I remember fondly during my college years the times I was studying in silence with my friends. We were bonding over the shared experience of working…
This magic is delightful in small codebases I’m familiar with and absolute hell in large codebases I’m not familiar with
This is a strange way to phrase the question. Sites that had to shift to app-like experiences are hard to find, because nowadays pretty much every web app is an app-like experience from the beginning and is created with…
We’re talking about a terminal colorization function though. Fragmentation of packages aside, are there any other languages that have terminal text colorization built into the standard library?
I feel like GUI vs. IDE misses a major part of the workflow. There's a lot to this workflow that isn't replicable on Github currently (dependency graph, frequently edited files, etc.). Navigating locally in your IDE is…
That’s a reasonable assessment. I worked at startups for 3 years before joining a FAANG company and they flat-out ignored my startup experience for leveling purposes, placing me as a junior engineer.
I don't think you have to justify or challenge your dislike for Medium. It's pretty reader-hostile. I get why authors write on it but I personally click away every time I get hit with the paywall.
Agreed but then the bizarre part was consenting to a search of his vehicle.
Redux vs. jank proprietary solution aren't the only options. For instance, a lot of what people use Redux for is fetching and storing API data, or managing cross-component state. A combination of react-query[1] and…
I enjoyed it while I used it but my main issues with it were with the developer experience and how many files the logic was spread across: actions, action constants, reducers, etc. When you have to edit 4 different…
Agreed, I now greatly regret it knowing what I know about the theory of learning, but I crammed my entire way through college and graduated with honors. It's embarrassing to say but I can recall close to 0 of the facts…
It's generally agreed that the Sandwich Technique is manipulative and condescending. If the purpose of a meeting/conversation is to deliver negative feedback, your reports/teammates will almost certainly be able to…
It sounds like you know this job isn't a good fit for your disposition and ambitions. Staying somewhere where you're not a good fit won't really do anyone any favors, and a FAANG will have no problems replacing you. I…
Not disagreeing that a team might be better for targeting Enterprise SaaS but is the implication that a solo founder can’t learn to talk about other people’s non-technical problems?
My naive guess is that this is in response to the recent release of GitHub Copilot. There was a lot of surrounding discussion about whether we were approaching a future where human developers are unnecessary. Feels a…
