I'm struggling to find immaturity or impracticality in that quote. Also your reply is redundant: You posted a sibling comment echoing parent's phallic framing of the topic.

I'm at a loss for a more vacuous one. You've reduced strategic leverage of natural resources to penises.

It goes much deeper than that, Red Hat maintains or contributes regularly to a wide swath of the Linux ecosystem. They also have a policy of open sourcing acquisitions. If the deal goes through, it's a dark day for open source software

Their location is brutal and basically transit-inaccessible. You'd have to pay me seven figures to live near Los Gatos or do the crazy commute from some place interesting.

Silly me thinking I couldn't afford medical school, I wasn't shrewd enough to take out the loans anyway and then skip town.

You're ignoring the fact that most highly paid positions come with a lot of bullshit. Depending on the position and company, that could be overwork, ridiculous politics, or the inability for your work to have any impact. I still make g

Implying that those startups failed due to engineer negligence and not due to strategic business blunders.

I think you're onto something. Perhaps it's best to focus on the design of the design though. A further derivative of subjectivity ought to fit the bill! :)

We may have different experiences, but in a long career the worst I've seen are useless engineers. Are you seriously claiming that the population of engineers destroying multiples of their salary (sabotage/gross negligence) is com

You're assuming parent wasn't going for the top comment. In addition to the open-ended hypothetical, popular tactics include prefacing with "This is an unpopular opinion" and "My theory is". Depending on the go

Teachers being criminally underpaid doesn't change the fact that most engineers are underpaid. A good engineer can generate multiples of their salary in revenue.

"FTP -> SSH -> proprietary console" does not look like evolution over a gradient of control to me. I don't understand why you're comparing FTP to SSH when SSH is lower level than FTP. FTP "throw it on the serv

Don't read too much into it: SFDC feels the pinch in recruiting, and they are heavily invested in a San Francisco presence with their tower.

I'm not sure how much time you spend on HN, but US jingoism is quite popular here. Uh oh, I must be a Russian shill too.

It wouldn't be HN if the top comment weren't critical of asterisks in Python.

Their goals were not to create the most academically sound type system. They were focused on engineering challenges. Read the comments here ti understand the authors' priorities and obstacles.

I'm not so sure, the NYC attacks didn't offer particular criminal opportunity. As for the photo, a mass stoicly crossing a bridge isn't the best supporting evidence. Cause trouble and a mob sets on you.

Brash on a personal blog is tricky. In this post's case, I'd worry that the blogger has a hard time separating technical deficiencies from professional incompetence. "Designed by amateurs" is an over-the-top and dubious

Agreed, the "red envelope" of reddit is designed to elicit a visceral reaction.

Thanks for going into more detail, I'm interested that you got lower jitter. My experience with high performance JVM networking stacks is that they achieve incredible throughput but are quite hungry (with a hungry baseline too) and tha

What does "won" mean here? Better throughput? Lower latency? Less variance in latency? Better efficiency? re: the last one, I'd be shocked if Netty could match Go stdlib http in memory usage even if you benchmarked higher thr

Vagrants in the tenderloin aren't dying of starvation, thirst, or exposure. They could have Dreamforce on the street in the tenderloin every month and it would have no effect on the conditions there.

Exactly, microservices are mainstream and boring now. Designing around services? You must be a pointy-haired boss!

It's fashionable right now to like monoliths. It's "thought leaders" trying to one-up other "thought leaders," contradicting for sport. And who cares anyway? Software fashion is cargo cult nonsense pushed by pe
