Having gotten contacted by Facebook, I eventually refused when I realized they were going to ask about algorithms for a technical role that is in no way relevant to that on the job. Skilled candidates can refuse just fine and wait for somet

Depends how you define “side projects.” I spend about 4 hours each Sat/Sun morning playing and practicing guitar and singing, rest of the time studying up on CS concepts missed to try and fill in the gap with not having a degree in cas

CloudFormation, last I checked, doesn't support actually showing what your changes are going to be in full with nested stacks, which means you are changing things blindly with Change Sets. Imagine having 100's of security groups,

Every client has different requirements so it varies. CloudFormation is common but strongly prefer Terraform when possible for creating infrastructure, and use Ansible or chef-solo for config management, pre-baked AMI method and deploying t

Unfortunately this happens on the backend, for instance as a built-in feature of a CDN or DNS routing based on your IP, so the only real way around it is to use a VPN that'll let you switch countries and show a different IP address whe

More ops than dev, though still have to do both, but this has been the case with me as well. I have been open to staying at a company longer given they are willing to pay a reasonable salary and have the right type and amount of work. No po

Hence why it's important to have your own software package repository server and grab internal packages from that rather an external party for any serious infrastructure.

The important part here is this article probably got the patients ER decision reversed and approved. I would argue that alone is worth the article.

Meh. I enjoy take home assignments because I can add that as a skill to the resume when done and some are actually pretty fun. Now I doubt I'd do something like "here's a CloudFormation template with a hundred different resou

Not OP but to me it looks like a Reddit clone with a few more "fun features" with the emojis. It could very well be based off of reddit considering it's open source.

Basically the most desperate and cheapest available out there. Also the paywall causes the article to end at this quote, which is perfect because I have no desire to read any more of it.

My experience casually observing how most people in coffee shops, even developers, leave their laptops unlocked as they go use the bathroom, or ask a random stranger to watch it for them, is that security in general is not as high of a conc

Imagine you used a password manager that required memorizing just one diceware phrase then using randomly generated passwords and never got locked out again, that's what happened to me.

It's incredibly helpful to launch a service and ensure it's running, and allow a dev to see it running in action as well. You can also have a one on one situation where a dev might want to show you how to debug a running app or so

If you work remote just doing things like using ssh, browsing web pages, and using Spotify and the occasional YouTube vid can eat up more than 10 GB a month. It's not hard to set up an OpenVPN server in AWS along with LetsEncrypt and h

Hey there. When "grit" is shown as a core value that translates to me as "we expect you to work crazy overtime constantly until you burn out." Happy to be wrong about that if that's not the case.
