Thanks for keeping that service up and running! I think it’s been about 10 years since I found it and it’s been my go-to reference ever since. I’ll often get laughs from people when I share it as reference.
I’ve been building my wife a budget tracking dashboard for reporting on PPC ad campaigns. At any given time, she’s working with any number of clients (directly or subcontracted, solo or as part of a team) who each have…
In addition to not enjoying it, I also don’t learn anything, and I think that makes it difficult to sustain anything in the middle of the spectrum between “I won’t even look at the code; vibes only” and advanced…
I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Django, the python web framework, even though I don’t use it anymore. https://www.djangoproject.com/ When I was still learning to code, I spent hours and hours and hours…
Somewhat unrelated to the point you’re making, something seems off about the results in that Glassdoor link. Searching “computer science” in the jobs tab treats that as a keyword and shows results for a variety of job…

Agreed. With the very little context from the source article (admittedly), it feels like piling on to the whole Epic controversy.
I agree, but I try to stick to downgrading the comment/argument instead of the people themselves, because I’ve found it to be a pretty ubiquitous line of thought since I started noticing it.
> I would argue most relationships with coworkers aren't genuine. You might have a different metric for this, but mine is that when you change jobs, these relationships evaporate. True, my relationship with my coworkers…
Giving OP the benefit of the doubt here, it seems like a straw man example off the top of their head, just to throw some ideas out there.
FYI your link is broken. Agreed, the only mention of using different technology has come up in the current project is in discussions of Typescript vs plain JavaScript. That’s been the only bring-your-own-technology for…
We make heavy use of peer dependencies, so microfrontends rarely end up actually bundling their own dependencies. Build tools like rollup help with that. It’s not a silver bullet and requires A bit of overhead. I’m…
Cool to see more news from Mumbai. I've been following a close friend of mine (also in Mumbai) on various social media as he works on his goal of fabricating "100,000 M-19 Face Shields for India" in his maker space.…
> Nobody has any idea, they're just making it up as they go along. Ha! I came here to say this, and I'm glad you share my opinion. I realize that you're speaking specifically about software estimates, so please excuse…
> I think the old way is simpler in the sense of building on fewer concepts, and therefore allowing an easier learning curve I would disagree with that premise. From my own experience and from having mentored developers…
> I find that writing _something_ can help me to get a feel for a problem. Start, then sitting back and thinking about it, helps me to move towards a better solution faster. That summarizes the struggle that I have with…
I have a beard precisely because it’s trivial for me to maintain. I trim it down to 3/8 inch maybe once every two weeks, and clean up my neck in 30 seconds with the trimmer about once a week. Yeah sure it’s not a…
I’m sure it’s nothing like the south east, but it gets pretty hot, mostly in July and August. Living in a hotter but drier climate now (which is on the whole more comfortable than back in NH), I realize that the…
For the lazy, the selling price listed in there is about $385,000 USD.
And I also just verified by checking myself against some known Jira dashboards and searching for some of the search queries he provided... I'm not sure what there isn't to trust when he tells you exactly how to verify…
Also agree! I learned a lot about how Python works from digging through the inner guts of the Django ORM. I’ve been pleasantly surprised, getting back into Django after about 5 years, that the codebase is just as…
After reading the article, better phrasing would be “I miss what Facebook used to be”. It may be addictive and pervasive now, but the feeling is that it no longer fills the niche it used to.
I think this is an incomplete picture. Guessing at their motivations, DRM also serves to reduce opportunities for casual copyright violation when you have to jump through illegal (which is part of the scheme) hoops to…
What are centaur shopping models?
The distinction is that teaching how to build a car from scratch (builder) doesn’t teach you how to drive it any better (programmer). The proposal is to teach programming with “assume you have a car/compiler/filesystem”…
