When you're interviewing junior developers, you have no standard measure, they don't have enough actual experience to speak to. So before a leetcode and CTCI, you'd either have junior developers who went to a good university

It's a super common "new to SRE" behavior to overindex on caching as a silver bullet, especially because literally every DB has mechanisms to scale reads fairly easily. In my experience, redis is often needed when you have a

I had a Palm Pre way back in the day, it was easily 5 years ahead of other phones. It's very clear that a lot of the iPhone's initial design language was inspired by PalmOS

do NOT move to Dublin. It's essentially the only major city in Ireland and the only reason people have offices there are for tax reasons. The CoL alone will blow through any salary they can offer you there. Amsterdam is quite good, it&

It's really not that complicated, just FEIE and FBAR. No one I know takes the tax credits unless they have a rental property in the states and want to offset some future taxes from a sale or other income stateside

Not at all, it's mostly optics. The US DOD spends like $900 BILLION a year, and you don't see DOGE even attempting to touch that money.

I doubt they have the engineering experience to launch anything at this point. They try to do a weird tiktok like thing where watching a video on mobile will randomly scroll to another video, but I think this probably has more to do with ju

This is a misnomer, Calfire does a lot of prescribed burns already. It's really difficult to do them safely around urban interfaces.

In what world would the TLAs need to setup this convoluted scheme? They already wiretap most of the US's internet traffic through your ISP already.

It's not really that sad. Young guys with a bit of disposable income could do a lot worse than subscribing to someone's onlyfans and chatting with a bot. I don't charge subscribers directly and don't do any pay-per-messa

Nothing fancy, just bought a motherboard from SM, and a 4U case. I have a couple of boxes with 6 NVIDIA 3080s and recently upgraded to a used super micro with 8 A100s Colocation wise, you pretty much buy the space, show up with the server a

For chat, I'd say 70% of the messages are non-sexual in nature. People just want to have someone to talk to during their work day. Not all, but quite a few models have been open about how their chat during the day is AI generated.

E85 also has a ton of particulate in it as well. I'd recommend anyone to install an better inline fuel filter if you're tuning your engine and running on E85.

Feel free to take a look at any more complicated GoLang code (k8s, gorm, etc) and you'll see that the tool/library you're depending on requires a veritable rats nest of bad practices to work around the Go's inherent limi
