   They go great lengths to justify why salaries are paid location based: https://about.gitlab.com/2019/02/28/why-we-pay-local-rates/ I think that's a wise decision because it allows you to stay where

   I'm curious why this is a big deal. Naively, I'd suppose that they change their current install script from "ruby: download and install brew" to: "shell: download and install ruby, then install brew". They coul

   Reading all the comments here I have the impression that there are 2 groups of programmers: There's one group that uses Python regularly and which is getting their stuff done right now. And there is the other group which has time to co

   To demonstrate that the same story has been ashtray posted another 2 times within a span of roughly a week. It has little value to repost it a 3rd time again. Edit: interestingly, the most recent re-post did gain some traction this time!

    What you thought one hour ago, had been already replied 4 hours earlier to the tweet. I'm not sure if you copied it from there?

    "misuse of the new toilet caused large amounts of water to flood the boat" Misuse of available tools and then sinking the whole product sounds like a quite familiar story in software engineering.

    The book is downloadable as PDF and reads very well on Kindle. As chapters are recognized as such and it's easy to directly open any of them. I'm looking forward to study the contents in detail as I hope to improve my abilities to

    Exactly - I find dynamic programming languages very helpful to quickly iterate over an idea and to make it MVP-ready. I have no experience yet with Haskell, however I feel multitudes faster building applications in Python compared to Java,

    "Dynamically typed languages cause more trouble than they are worth". Here we have the classical fight. Those unreflected statements don't help anyone as there are plenty of use cases and benefits for dynamically typed langua

    "Smaller code" does not mean easier to understand. It just means less characters to read. Maybe those characters are heavily loaded with meaning, as in the case with meta programing. You might need twice as much time to _understan
