  1. From the perspective of a job seeker how do you answer questions about a company? I use LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor to read reviews. Are there others?

  2. I'm searching for a Rust engineering role and recognize that a lot of roles involve blockchains. I have ~3 years of Rust experience and over 20 years experience in software engineering. I'd like to start learning the…

  3. I've been in tech for over 20 years and I'm also frustrated how difficult it is to use job sites including LinkedIn and Indeed which seem to be the major players now. For example, if I wanted to find a job that involves…

  4. I recently resigned my position as a principal software engineer and decided to take the summer off to regroup before pursuing another opportunity. I have a long list of topics I'm planning to learn more about in my…

  5. I'm currently in a job search and part of my process is to try to glean information about the companies I apply to. It's crude but I currently have a spreadsheet with scores from Glassdoor, Indeed, TeamBlind, etc. and I…

  6. I'm aware of the well-known product review sites like Wirecutter and Consumer Reports but wondering what else is out there. The web seems saturated with review sites but most are just a means to get commissions from…

  7. A lot of platforms like fly.io, Heroku, vercel, etc. have more or less the same simple host pattern. The pattern seems to be: {random-string}{domain} Some reasons are obvious like: 1. Using the same subdomain allows for…

  8. It seems that more and more Saas companies insist on you booking a meeting with them prior to being able to evaluate or purchase the service. Why is this necessary? It seems like this would cause a lot of potential…

  9. I've been struggling to find time or prioritize reading. I have an expanding stack of books and online reading list to read and I rarely sit down and give attention to either for more than a few minutes. I inevitably…

  10. For a while now, I've been asking myself this question because it seems a lot of intermediate solutions get drowned out by all the k8s-related news. I was encouraged to see the announcement about mrsk from 37Signals…

  11. Similar to specifications like OpenAPI, etc. it seems like having something similar for CLIs would be cool. Why isn't there one already? How do you approach stubbing a CLI to interface with one or more APIs? Edit: I…

  12. I'm a software engineer and I use a combination of manual searches and a couple of bash scripts for doing things like getting reviews of prospective companies. I'm curious what others are doing in this space to separate…

  13. As a thought experiment what would the ideal version of the internet look like disregarding any perceived hurdles? Think of what a typical experience is today and take away all of the cruft and things that diminish the…

  14. I'm in the process of looking for another software engineering job and have specific things I look at when considering a role. What criteria do you use? What are red flags to look out for?

  15. I have over twenty years of software engineering experience and I've seen countless examples of architecture documents but I rarely see a high level design document that really stands out. I'm also surprised that there…

  16. I'm doing a thought experiment and wondering how I would get news about specific companies fast. This means not leveraging RSS feeds or news aggregators. The closest commercial offering I can think of is something like…

  17. ProtonMail Is Down (protonstatus.com)
  18. I've been a software engineer for over 20 years and looking into day trading. Are there advantages and/or resources specifically targeted to software engineers who also trade?

  19. How would you implement a service mesh for a large enterprise that already has hundreds of microservices? For some background, the existing microservices are deployed in a variety of ways (VMs, containers and…

  20. I haven't worked with WASM yet but the promise of being portable and performance are appealing. I'd like to be able to write something in Rust and have it run natively on either the client or server. What's your opinion…

  21. I have a few ideas for providing a service based on product data. I've seen various data companies selling data (which is generally very expensive), APIs and scraping data. I just need basic data such as brand, product…
