Are bubble sort and quick sort the same algorithm?
I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, but neither do you. Students at universities ranked similarly to Michigan absolutely do spend a significant amount of time studying on the weekends, especially if they’re…
I’ve heard Foundry is not only insanely expensive, but to actually accomplish something comparable to the demos in your domain requires a huge amount of integration work to build it out in a way that locks you in.
This got me thinking. In any country or ethnic group, it’s so important to differentiate between the average person trying to get by and the aggressors who claim to be their leaders. When we look at the world through…
In technically deep domains like Bellard works in, Staff+ roles bias more towards technical expertise, and managers also tend to be more technical and able to more completely address technical coordination tasks.…
I 100% agree.
It’s definitely specific. 70% Advancing the state of the art in my areas of expertise + 30% Enabling experts in other areas I care about to advance the state of the art by making all the problems related to my expertise…
As I mentioned, this is a privileged position, but I see work as an opportunity to do something I and others find meaningful and useful. I’m paid so that I can afford to focus my time on that work without worrying about…
Yeah, it is shockingly bad. I’m assuming you’re using “talent” euphemistically here. For a recent job opening I was looking to fill, HR sent us all of the applications rather than doing their own filtering (they did…
Admittedly privileged counterpoint: I want to work with the best co-workers in the world. Most candidates I’ve interviewed both in the US and in other countries aren’t anywhere near that level. If just anybody will do…
That’s unfortunate.
I’m guessing the grandparent poster would agree with you.
Just wondering, was there ever any discussion about trying a quick prototype with a 3rd party auth solution before trying to go off and build one?
It’s different for different people, but IMO, knowing something significant about everything is easier than knowing everything about something significant. And if you understand the organizational dynamics, being in a…
Authoring and reviewing PRs when no one person owns them individually sure sounds like influencing the direction of the team without any authority to make a unilateral decision to me. You’re right about politics, but I…
Technically yes, but it’s not much different for line managers and often second level managers, though. Maybe you can approve expenses up to $500 at a time and get headcount for a couple more people approved from time…
I agree. Of the two major US political parties today, one is primarily radical right with a small conservative branch that is struggling to stay in their party. The other is conservative to moderate with a small liberal…
I’m sure the stress level varies by the individual. The upside to a more collaborative role like this is you don’t have the stress of having to know everything. Individual developer roles can be more stressful because…
Why does an experienced programmer ever need to look anything up? It’s useful to have reference materials to check against, or for things you haven’t worked in recently.
That’s why a lot of companies only promote after demonstrating a track record of performing at the next level. It can also be an argument for secret levels. Although I’m not sure how useful that really is in practice.…
That’s life. Unless you’re a hermit, a complete pushover, or a slave master, you’re constantly trying to influence without authority. Want to go out to dinner with friends? That’s influence without authority right…
Not only that, but leading through a reporting line is 90% influence, too. Relying on pulling rank will get your best reports to find a way to leave ASAP, and others will follow.
If it’s important and it’s not getting done, yes. Let’s take aligning divs. What’s the real problem here? The front end looks really bad and it’s causing us to lose potential customers. Why is that? Maybe we have a…
The way it works is you convince engineers and managers to want to work with you.
It’s all about being balanced and picking the right strategy for the situation, not doing everything all at once. A guide like this could be useful for someone to consult when they find themselves in a different…
