Conversely, engineers can be "registered" and relegated to other adjacent roles because their credentials have been eclipsed by their lack of meaningful experience, and their ideas are no better than the smart programmers in the r

> Most common error of a smart engineer is to optimize a thing that should not exist I encounter this so often. It must be hard for some people to question a given design or requirement. Sometimes when someone asks for a solution to a p

Firstly, Apples's creative selection sounds like a nightmare. This would put so much selective pressure on anyone lower on the totem pole compared to their superiors, it is sure to cast aside good talent for making the slightest mistak

Totally. The article definitely caught my attention for that reason. The difference between those two scenarios is an order of magnitude.

I think it's much more likely that it just takes timeand money to develop how the deletion process works, testing the implementation etc. It's easier to just not have the capability since it's not critical to the majority of

Last time I used it was to test that my companies app could be downloaded from it. Well it wouldn't let me sign in using my existing outlook account apparently because we use our company domain name. So I had to create a completely sep

174 is a pretty small sample size. This was several years ago, anyone know if there was any follow up?

I've also encountered that, it's very frustrating when you get a 200 ok, then you continue on in your client but there was actually an error expressed in the body of the 200 response. Ah gee.

Yeah that's understandable when frameworks default everything to 500, that's often true, I just couldn't think of a more appropriate code to the specific example apparently there actually is a code for fraudulent payments so

I'm not sure anyone would propose you randomly map different 4xx codes to a bunch of different internal server errors. For the one example you provided I would probably use a 500 code, return the relevant message and call it a day. In

Let me get this straight, you don't think codes matter, but you want to manage a giant proptietary list of codes? Won't you just send up in those huge discussions you waste so much time on?

I'm sure this is a problem in companies large enough to have a sizable HR department, but don't most of us work with a bunch of cretin engineers that always think everything anyone else does is wrong and a sales team that is never

A large amount of my recommended YouTube videos are educational, but I subscribe to a lot of nature docs, history etc, I don't think the algorithm dislikes this kind of content for me. So I guess the answer to your question is, we can

A single person generally has orders of magnitude less power to influence than the the biggest companies in the world. That's surely not a fair comparison.
