If someone you didn't know were posting these things as, say, YouTube comments, it would still be immediately apparent that their "mind isn't right", as you put it, but of course it would be perfectly acceptable to write

There are plenty of people who are not "sane" who don't hold and espouse those opinions, and I doubt anyone would take such umbrage with those people, so it's unreasonable and disingenuous to suggest that people are &quo

> Because they're people, and people make gifted coders? Generally not, no. The headline is garbage because most women, being people, do not make good programmers.

Because I wouldn't have expected to see a bizarre phrase like "one of the most powerful people in coding".

Not so much get them out of the market, but to be a viable competitor in that market. Perhaps in much the same way as they're trying to do with Quark against regular ARM SoCs.

"You can’t use firewalls to secure East/West data flows in the network." What does that mean?

Yeah, they always had a horribly confusing UI that made it non-obvious how to get to a project's homepage, even -- the thing that should be front and centre! However, I did enjoy playing around with their compile farm when they had tha

Why do you only have 15GB? I just looked and I have 100GB.

I'm astonished they lasted this long. The only unique thing they ever did was their compile farm, now long gone.

That it makes it worse is your opinion, though. If the prevailing opinion agreed with you, the additional meaning of the word would have been unsuccessful. Nobody is using it because they're forced to; they're using it because i

Who are "these people"? People documenting a word's meaning that has been in use for over a hundred years? That's their job.

> Being a bit disingenuous, no ? Not at all. If you pay attention to how people actually use the language, the word has both meanings, so either is correct. Such is the fluid nature of language. If you can't appreciate that, then I

You should never have to do anything to become secure. The mantra is: secure by design; secure by default; secure by configuration.

It's not powered up, though. That's why it lasts so long on one battery. The button wakes it up.

> an interview process that's novel and successful is certainly a competitive advantage That's true, but... it's pretty sad that it's true. There's so much to be learned from good interviewing practices.

Ah, yes, I've seen that one (discovered it just in the past couple of weeks, actually). I thought you might have found a page dedicated to it.

From the title and this context, I was expecting a how-to about writing (embedded) software that uses less power, but instead it seems to be a rambling essay mostly about yourself. Why call it a HOWTO?
629.
by danellis 11y ago
Sure, but it's something other people say of you. To say it of yourself, even outside of an interview, is rather gauche, and perhaps reveals a sentiment that does manifest in interviews.

Maybe they're just put off by people arrogant enough to call themselves world class.
