Brake pads are pretty common consumables, for a dealership to have no brake pads is a bit odd.

If someone is hired to work on your code base, presumably they know the language. They know ternarys work... If they don't then they need to learn. You can't say don't use specific language features because some devs can&#x27

A couple of days is a really long time! When I had a car I wouldn't expect it to be away for more than a day unless it was having extensive work done. Most things like regular servicing, fixing niggles it's a case of drop it off i

Most positions in the UK will have at least a month notice. I have a friend whos notice is 12 months. At my last job they tried to convince us to accept 3 months notice, this was for even junior developers.

I'm staggered that there are 575 companies paying slack $100k / year. I don't even have anything against slack but what is possibly worth $100k a year from a comms software?

I dont think you need Category Theory to understand / use Clojure at all. I say this as someone who uses CLojure and has at best a very sleight understanding of category theory.

Yes, there is syntax, but there is a lot less noise and syntactic bureaucracy compared to other languges.

From the people I've spoken to about this, I'd say less than half even know that the 737Max is a thing, never mind that it's crashed twice.

No. Can you imagine an office full of developers all talking to their machine to enter code... It wouldn't work at all.

Absolutely this, I've worked on a project that was 450 assemblies and about 5 million lines codes split over a few thousands source files. Without an IDE that can jump between those assemblies and source files it's an absolute nig

Nope. Dont know how much experience you have of trying to hire developers, but the majority out there (even the ones with years of experience) don't pass the most basic of criteria for the job. Our test for hiring is a simple app that

IIRC, I think he's said previously that he doesn't want C++ in the kernal and doesn't think Rust is suitable.

Yes. Because if they don't have a deepish understand of the language and framework IME they tend to write crap code. If someone is being hired to write C# /.NET all day every day I don't want to have to spend time teaching th

Compared to writing Sql stored procs it feels really hard to write something that spits out efficient sql. You can't run (as far as I'm aware) things like query analyzers like I can with SQL to get execution plans. It can be an ab

It is. I work in c# and if we take idiomatic to be how most devs write c#, then idiomatic c# is garbage.

I would say do not look to conference videos for how to write production quality code... Most talks at conferences are shallow and at worst just the blind leading the blind. Be very careful, I've even seen people from places like Micro
