No serious company is using Storyboards. Only toy apps or small companies do, or junior devs. SwiftUI might be ok for them as well.

Agreed... it is not ready to be prime time yet. UIKit is still unbeatable for more serious apps. At this pace it might take few more years of dev for SwiftUI to reach feature parity.

SwiftUI looks promising, but it is not ready at all. It is fine for 'toy apps' but if you want to do anything serious UIKit is unbeatable. I think it will take few more years until SwiftUI can get to feature parity with UIKit.

Same... and I got scolded by an recruiter after she asked me more questions about my experience. She basically told me I am underselling some of the experience, and I should put some of it more, and perk it up a bit. It was very helpful.

you sound like those type of guys that try to be 'cool' by disliking what other people like. Blade Runner is a great movie for its time and it has inspired a lot of artists. It is a Noir (Sci-fi), and the type of movie that only a

Yep. The reason that a lot of things are found in caves is because they are more likely to be preserved there. Things/settlements in the open field are more likely to be destroyed over time. In nearby Albania they found a similar ancie

Not true at all at things that need practice and that are recurrent. From sports, to many other activities that have repetition, people know what they are generally trying to do. That doesn't mean that there is not a large degree of r

Come on man, junior or mid level engineers are suposed to do well defined tasks, or projects. It is part of the Team Lead, Lead/Staff engineers to reduce the business requirements to a relatively well defined project. That's how

Scrum (stand up and all) is a waste of time and only lower tier companies are still using it. That doesn’t mean that you don’t have a process at all. You might have once or twice a week sync meetings, and a biweekly planing meeting. But scr

Blind.... but it is geared towards the workplace, and not tech and gadgets in general. It has more unfiltered conversations, as people do speak their mind a bit more. (some eggregious ones, do get flagged/removed though).

Accept the fact that it takes a lot longer to do anything at a big co. Also, accept the fact that whatever you do, is not crucial to the company as you are just another engineer out of thousands. Hence, why the rush? If you feel creative

Dumb paper. What the author calls degrowth, it is living in a more primitive and old fashion way. Neighbor Albania and Italy have this problem as well. There are plenty of villages where people live like it is still the early 1900s. The au

2008-2009 was bad world wide, except for Tech. Tech had a hiring freeze for late 2008-2009 and then things rebounded fast. Most large companies had minor layoffs (Except Apple and Facebook). Even Microsoft had layoffs, and Google (steal

Which ended up being a serious mistake, and miscalculation (or bad prediction) of what happened. Late 2008 early 2009 were not good to raise money or for tech hiring. But by late 2009 and early 2010 things picked up again in force. Google
