It's my understanding that simply changing the code doesn't really have an effect until all the nodes in the system update to use it.

100%. Unfortunately, not all can separate the art from the artist.

SpaceX has done such a phenomenal job rebuilding from scratch. How is it not obvious to you rebuilding airlines from scratch is also the best route?

This would be most helpful for someone just starting out, but not worth paying for someone halfway there. I'm already aware and familiar with many of the items on the list. I also agree with the previous commenter, wheres the value add

On the surface, this appears to be great news. However, there's a big question as to whether these are short productivity gains vs longer lasting gains. There's a hypothesis that the AI generate code will slowly spaghetti-fy a cod

Exercism looks really cool! Have you thought of reaching out to philanthropists, particularly in tech? Just a wild guess but I believe there would be at least 1 wealthy individual out there willing to donate money for this cause.

Different definition of power law, but still very applicable to this case.

On any given dimension, everyone/everything cannot possibly be above average. If you take competence, most companies will be mediocre. At best you have a bell curve, at worst it's an exponential curve with only a very small amount

Would $1/month even be worth it? It seems payment processors would take a big chunk out of that $1, which is why I very rarely see monthly subs of that amount.

No, he's right on because of power laws. Sure, some corps will be run really well, but most corps will be mediocre.

Go meta here. You're trying to solve the wrong problem. Use this technique to get yourself out of this situation.

What happens when you need to make a modification and now you need to re-learn the current set of test cases vs understanding just the variables and making a new test case for the matching set of variables?

Destiny was great, until they decided BattleEye was a requirement. Spyware? No thanks.

Agreed. "Loss of control leads to disengagement and apathy" is more accurate.

The irony here is that long term employment can also lead to disengagement and apathy. So really, the latter has nothing to do with being employed or not.

Here's a startup SaaS idea. Take that knowledge and SaaSify it so my broke-a$$ can also use these loopholes.

I agree with your first and last answer. This is why most people can't make an impact. Even if you _could_ make one, too many layers of permission often kills the potential, or just as worse, the idea is greenlit and some other enginee

How do you vet for expertise?

Frankstein-ing frameworks like this is asking for trouble. This smells like something that was made by devs because they hated working on WP, not understanding that the reason why WP is picked if often due to political reasons, not technica

Do you actually employ people in the SF office? Or is this more of a pied-à-terre for meeting new customers/investors?

Hmmm, only if the microwave worked with their own specially prepared frozen upscale meals.

This sounds like a next-gen microwave idea! Perfectly microwaved food every time!

by charlie0 2y ago
Yes, something like changing the power levels normally require pressing of multiple buttons. Many menus and options are also hidden that way. Unfortunately, the true potential of a microwave is locked away. Pretty much everyone I know just

Because so many people don't have the common sense to cover their food when they heat it up. A microwave is the worst thing to have in a college dorm. Guaranteed filth to be covering the inside. It also doesn't help the default po

>Because the trains are now quieter both onboard and in adjacent neighborhoods, it also might mean that more people are willing to live near the tracks. Wait a minute, aren't these tracks shared with commercial trains?
