   If the tools to make it would more easily allow others to achieve similarly efficient designs, then that is the secret sauce...

   Seems it measures how well you can use shell tooling to code. Personally, I find it foolish to ignore decades of advances in IDEs, so am not part of the cult of "you're not a real programmer unless you use Vim/Emacs". I

   Gonna have to disagree... waaaaaay too much setup, and a large advantage to people who are familiar with 1 specific technology.

   Is that large Enterprise a bank, or a company where VP actually means something?

   That's not accurate, a nuclear capability is not as binary as you make it out to be. In no particular order, there's: - Having a bomb - having one that works consistently (NK has conducted tests that likely failed to produce the e

   It's almost like the place is run by a dictator who would take food out of the mouth of his own people to fund a nuclear weapons program that serves no purpose other than to keep him in power.

   While that's true on an individual basis, I recently left a large company to join a FAANG and, as it turns out, so did quite a few other top performers shortly before me. By the time I left, there were definitely very senior folks aski

   There are large warehouses regularly available all along I-95 in New Jersey. They also may not need as huge of a footprint as you think - I believe they have some large warehouses just across the border in PA as well (<2 hours away), so

   FAANG manager here, with experience in other industries. I have definitely seen that promo committees here value maintenance work less than other industries. I think the problem is that the committee is made up of individuals from other fun

    Maybe leave your friends and family alone - sure, it's fine to mention a product if the topic comes up but I find one of the things humans tend to want help with the least it's organization - everyone has their own system.

    Personal Knowledge Management has been one of the more obnoxious buzzwords I've run across lately - comes across as an overestimation of the value of one's holdings. It's just a filing system by another name.

    I predict the Staten Island warehouse will soon be closed due to redundancy as part of a strategic rebalancing of their logistics operations due to changing consumer demand. Someone at Amazon is probably already touring all the warehouse si

    Best of luck to them, but this one is dead on arrival. Symphony already tried to create an alternative with the backing of a number of the major investment banks, and failed miserably. As another commenter pointed out, the integrations are

    Seems like semantics - maybe they don't explicitly prefer perfect scores but it sounds like they're filtering out using a minimum bar, and I'd bet it isn't too far off perfect.

    AP scores and SAT II's are highly subject to the quality of instruction. I had several teachers who treated it as a more advanced class than honors, but felt no need to teach to the rubric for the test specifically. I aced the SAT and

    I toured MIT and didn't apply because I got the distinct sense my tour guide was miserable there. I didn't really know the importance attached to elite schools at the time, and ended up going to a top 25 school that I considered m

    Last summer in the midst of the pandemic, someone AirBnB'd an empty house a few streets over from us to throw a giant party. I know this because I could hear the music as though I were in a night club from my back yard. There were also

    I thought the same until I tried a couple, and then tried going back to a membrane keyboard at the office. In addition to better wrist comfort, I also find that I have fewer typos on the mechanical keyboard - my intuitive guess is that it&#

    While not the specific focus of this article, I found that having a successful spouse helped both of us earn more - we always had a reasonably accurate baseline to compare our progress/earnings against and know when it was time to make

    So you're saying that you miss the fact that people in other cultures are better at pretending to care about you? Personally, not sure if that's better or worse.

    I have... as mentioned, worked in one of the large tech companies with a monorepo, and they all use fairly similar tooling. In practice, it doesn't solve the problem because most people default to making everything public. Nominally th

    Having worked in companies with large monorepos and those without, I would never advise implementing one. The complexity as a function of repo size grows at something greater than linear rate. Code becomes tightly intertwined and the depend
