I wholeheartedly agree about developing/debugging being harder. People advocating for Serverless secretly ignore this and focus on scaleability and pricing. I have worked at two places using Serverless and in those places setting up a

My problem is that they signal that they hire until this layoff. The responsible thing would be to not hire for the last couple of months.

Because barrier to entry is much lower now than it was for you when you entered the field. What we do is not that difficult and with the advent of youtube, best practices, and better tools it has become much easier than it used to be. It is

Typing it is not the problem. It is reading at a glance that becomes much harder since lines oftentimes get split into multilines. I get less of an overview.

I agree that in your example it is not bad. Throughout that codebase it is clear though that they don't have a formatter that enforces a char-limit per line. It is when you combine those things it gets messy. Prettier uses a default of

I have to disagree. Adding the types will increase the number of the characters/lines of code which with a 80-char formatter limit can make functions look almost gibberish at a glance. Do that on a whole codebase and it becomes a mess

I feel like I am the only one in the world not liking typescript. It is not that I don't like types, it is what those types do to the readability of the codebase in terms of verbosity. My original programming language was Java but I sw

Started my career with Java and I will never work with it again. It is mostly the culture around Java. Most Java code is verbose to an extreme but the devs themself will say it makes the code readable. They will say the language is function

Must admit I find it discouraging that I spend years in university years ago when people now just finish some self-learned material in a matter of a few months. It is only getting simpler every year. I don't see the future being bright

It is hard for me to understand that big successful companies can hire so aggressively and then in time of a little economic downturn they need to cut people. From the outside, it looks like FOMO on a bigger scale and that just seems unprof

by DogLover_ 4y ago
I find it weird/irresponsible that they could not foresee this. Did they really expect the market to grow forever without downturn.

If they want people to come into office willingly, something needs to seriously change. Perhaps change hours from 9-17 to 9-14 for people coming into the office. The output would likely drop but perhaps that's what you need to do if yo

My guess is that they still pay US higher but I have no evidence of it. AirBnB also allows you to work from anywhere but if you look at their job-listing they still show location as San Francisco for pretty much all of the jobs.

It is not that easy. Many job-listings are US-Remote only.

Regarding link to AirBnb[2]. Their job-listing is still country dependent.

We pay taxes in the EU as well. Often the rate is much higher than the US but it depends on the country.

Those are hard to find. If you filter in your 3.link it goes from 1924 -> 38. That is 2% of the jobs.

The example with 'pattern' I really prefer using the variable 'pattern' instead of naming the variable to 'socialSecurityPatterUS'. Variables being too descriptive always felt like a dumbification that don&#x27

Rarely do I see people examine individual commits, perhaps because it is already established that PRs should small and branches short living. The point about bulled list of changes is a good one.

I find it easier to use rebase for this than having to manage branches.

This best practice of committing often never made much sense to me. I find it typical that we as developers come up with such practices that start to control how we work instead of us focusing on getting work done. This practice makes even

Yes. I have debated with myself before which route I should take. I went with the Github way, just because I felt uncomfortable making a decision like this that goes against all the examples. Perhaps it was the wrong approach. Another probl

You make some good points and I tend to agree with your approach. What you have to do though is skip using "uses: actions/", "needs", and won't be able to use other actions that has been published to the Github

Sure, but then I guess you always install the dependencies from scratch, can't utilize cache, and won't have a dependency graph as well. Parallelising your build/deployment will likely also be harder to do.
