You're not alone. The more experience I get, the more I feel that specifics in a language are a commodity, but what you do with that language is what matters. Those abstractions, identifying problems, talking with…
That's a problem with... "people looking for shiny things". There are many shiny things, and they loose their shine quite fast. It is true that many managers, recruiting agencies (almost 100%), and HR, will look for the…
They're not particularly difficult. You usually take the algorithm definition and implement one, as you did in the university or in the Coursera algorithms course. Fun, you might learn a thing or two about the language…
"Whether passing an algorithmic technical phone screen means you’re a great engineer is another matter entirely and hopefully the subject of a future post." This sentence plus the inverse correlation between experience…
We all have an opinion. I find his spot on.
Appealing to emotions! Because other people think like him, he is harassing her. Nice logic. The bonus point is: because other people think I'm an asshole, they're harassing me. That totally made my day. At least he got…

I totally agree with you it is a class issue. May I put it in other words? an asshole issue. How to behave around other "human beings" has been forgotten and a culture of attacking the different has evolved. Why?…
I recommend you to take a look to the "Growing object oriented software guided by tests" book. The first assumption you made is about TDD being only unit tests. What if TDD is not only unit tests? It could be that TDD…
I would prefer this post stays as an example of how not to do a post about the testing pyramid. Martin Fowler post/article is better IMHO, and I'm sure there are much better posts. There are some good ideas mixed with…
In a positive way I miss some examples of "hurting my designs" and "what that approach is doing to the integrity of your system design". Why TDD is doing that? Could you show me where do you have problems? That would be…
