It's no different than other languagages. If I'm searching for something about the express framework, I include "js" or "node" in my search terms. Same for rails, add "ruby". "go" is also a

I wasn't a huge fan of that style too but it's growing on me. More importantly, it's worth noting that this is also intended for experimental features which can eventually become part of the language syntax. eg: proc he

The nation’s response to tragedies such as Number 9 had always been the same: prayers, an outpouring of sympathy for the widows and children, toothless coal-mining safety legislation, and a return to the collective amnesia that allowed thi

I'm 2 decades into my career and have been working from home for a fortune 100 company for 2 years before covid (well, we would meet once a week in the office but just for meetings), so when the pandemic hit, it didn't change our

This is called Waste Valorization and is common in Europe. The idea is to run efficicent incinerators (with good filters on emissions to catch various nasty things we don't want in the air/soil/water and use the energy for he

I used to wonder the same, until it hit me that current status quo is actually NOT the meritocracy it pretends to be. There are many individuals with both talent and potential who are currently getting passed over simply because of unacknow

This is similar to how Webex room systems communicate using Proximity: ultrasounds emitted by a room device are picked up by the laptops / mobile devices of participants and exchange info on how to join. So as you walk into a room, the

These scripts become documentation. Not about what the commands are doing but WHY they are being ran. This in itself brings huge value.

What I do appreciate about TLV-style formats is general-purpose debugging tools. When all you have is a bitstream where field lengths are not multiples of 8 bits and are variable based on the actual value being encoded (looking at you, MPEG

Poor metrics are meaningless regardless of what you try to measure. In the example of documentation a better metric might be a composite value of (i) how many wiki articles a developer has written, weighed 0.33 and (ii) how useful on a

I really like this question. What I get out of it is where the candidate focuses on, and where they gloss over. I find it useful to prefix the question with a statement about there being no "right" answer, and "go in as much

That's the downside with a name like that. It's not very memorable. Clearly they should have removed the vowels to make it easy to remember and named it bnnnnnngggggg.com :) Sarcasm aside, if you do end up finding it, post here: t

Even though it's not exactly new, in my mind this is still in sharp contrast to the recurring headlines I used to read about whether Apple will survive in the next year (mac user since 1990).
