Brazil health care is actually decent, better than the American for sure. Universities are also free.

I am fine with take home exercise or white boarding / full day interviews. Automated challenging before talking with anyone I am not.

C++ is becoming better and better adopting best practices from other languages. I get it comes with a lot of complexity but I don't see it going anywhere. Could be an alternative.

Let me tell you an example right now. I saw a workday role that Linkedin suggested that I should apply. I clicked apply on Linkedin which redirected me to the workday site. The workday site has an Apply with Linkedin button - which I clicke

I have been a team lead for four years now in different companies / teams. I think empathy and radical candor are the most important skills ! There’s a book called radical candor that I really recommend. Other than those I recommend re

Not from first hand experience but @dvassallo on twitter says how his audience is very organic, people unfollow and follow (equivalent of unsubscribe / subscribe I guess) all the time depending on the message he is sending and that&#x2

That looks very interesting and super complex. I wonder how many companies really need this complexity, I bet 99.99% of the companies could get away with vertical scaling the writes and horizontal scaling the read only replica which would r

In Canada people can pay you by having your email or phone number in their bank app. Works really well!

I like my boss, team and company culture. I also care about their end product (am a consumer myself) and have a lot of say in the technical direction of the company at large. I am likely making 1/2 of what I could be making if I moved

Because software is hard. You might be relying on a function that only exists in 3.7 and not in 3.6, code written in 3.6 would work but new code using 3.7 features won’t be backwards compatible. With compiled code the errors are usually ver

I see. My last work experiences have been introducing devops workflows into companies that already had a decent tech body (~200 people) and the traditional divide between IT/Dev. I think the approach I mention ends up being a good comp

Our devs to their own ops using our blessed ansible galaxy roles + creating their own when necessary. It is all pretty standardized, is rare that someone needs to create a new galaxy role for example. We expect our teams to know their way a

Do people that aren't cloudflare scale really see the need for kubernetes and/or Nomad? Of the two Nomad seems much more sane because it does one thing only and is much simpler to manage and deploy. That said, having have used it,

Depends where you’re moving from. Seems like most of the comments are comparing to the USA tech scene in a FAANG company and only the financial aspect ... nothing will compare to it if it is what you’re looking for. However not everyone is

It is mind blowing that a company as big as google can be that bad at dealing with customers. Not only that but people are building business on top of a company that can wipe out your digital presence (gmail) because you try to charge back

Hope that works for you ! Your statement above has nothing to do with yaml being on the way out...

I thought you were trolling with some called Cuelang but is actually a thing. Yaml will still be used in 100 years, k8s is yaml based...

Last attempt at remaining relevant - lol. This isn’t a competition, they are tools. Ansible is widely used and will continue to be so for a long long time. Its foundations - ssh, python and yaml are also in for the long run to manage infras

Depending on how big the infrastructure is and how long you want to migrate over... usually there's not enough resources to "redo all from scratch", millions of LoC are already in production, people who owned key services are

In my humble opinion because there is so much money and marketing behind it. If you go attend the OSS summit all the cloud players are sending evangelizers and having the whole conference to be about Kbuernetes. Then a lot of people drink t

Not necessarily. You can have all of above with Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, Chef... etc.

I never got an offer but I've rejected interviews (won't take part of the code challenges culture). At one of them I had a strong recommendation for a specific project which allowed me to skip the initial screening but I declined

I actually end up doing a lot of both working in a company with a huge infrastructure but small number of developers. I would recommend to start solving some of your own problems in the devops space with some REST APIs and frontends :), ma

Doesn't gitlab fit the bill here?

This! (And wait until you figure out there’s a lot of real companies running like that..) I would say to also work in a domain you care about and like. I don’t like technology for technology sake and never did. I like solving problems and s

Yeah, me too. It is insane the amount of people developing software those companies have. If they can keep afloat while having such a big tech body paying high salaries hats off to them! It still amazes me.
