Depends on the project. People like to say "consultant" but most of the are just staff augmentation and many of them do work that won't absorbe a lot of knowledge.

That's why companies end up requiring "extensions" over and over for consultants. I know people working for consultant firms that have been with the same client for more than 3 years.

I wonder what the consequences can be for doing this. Just pay full price or also face legal actions.

Awesome resource to improve your Go skills at the same time since all assignments are in Go.

I'm currently reading Distributed Systems by Tanenbaum [1]. It goes into more detail and it's more extensive. It's more outdated but the fundamentals are there. [1] https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1

It depends on how good you are at solving coding puzzles. Checkout LeetCode. Many people post their experiences interviewing for companies there. My guess is the problems are hard so it would require months of training solving coding proble

Let's check some of his projects to see if we can give some feedback.

I've seen most real-world applications that use in-memory search, use balanced binary search trees. Are any of these improvements applicable to those data structures? AVL and Red-black trees come to mind.

GoLand seems to be lighter than IntelliJ though. I'll try using the plugins to see if the experience is different. Maybe I'm paying too much for the whole suite.

I've heard that before but I'm skeptic about if it's exactly the same.

Some I can think of: - Automata theory - Complexity theory (P vs NP stuff, not the one from leetcode problems) - Verification - Optimization using stuff like genetic algorithms, ant-colony algorithms, particle swarm, simulated annealing, et

I went through the Netflix process and even though it was lengthy it was pretty good IMO. No crazy questions and a good balance between technical and behavioral questions. I'm aware it varies a lot between teams but it looks like they

I don't know if it counts as enterprise software but I use Jetbrains' products everyday. Goland, IntelliJ and PyCharm are great tools.

The problem is we don't like the process, but not many people propose reasonable solutions. One extreme is just hard LeetCode questions, and the other is, "they should just talk to me about my experience and projects." We nee

That's what I read here. People got upset because he said Kubernetes was bad software and gRPC was a bad choice.

Sorry but even though I disagree with most of the points from the article, I prefer to read this instead of a shy and unconfident rant from someone that's afraid of insulting your favorite tech.

I can't imagine a constraint that would lead to restrict the use of Linux over Windows/MacOs unless is bureaucracy or ignorance like OP said. The only exceptions I can think of is they do development with tools only available for

I don't think it's old. I actually think OP is a bit young to be a principal engineer assuming that's what comes after senior.

That's why you need to adapt your CV accordingly. You change things depending if it's a startup or a big company. Also depending on the role.

That would be true if by cooking you mean boiling some pasta for 10 minutes or eating some scrabble eggs. That's hardly cooking.

Fair enough. So assuming you need a house to survive, do you need to know how to build one? If your toilet breaks, do you know how to fix it? Again, some people would argue that calling "the guy" is always shortsighted and wastefu

by diehunde 6y ago
I disagree. Some people cut their own hair or build their own furniture and would say everyone needs to know how to do that stuff instead of depending on and paying someone else. There's a reason cooking is also a profession, and there

For a big project GoLand is the way to go. For small or quick edits I like to use vim with the vim-go plugin[1]. [1] https://github.com/fatih/vim-go

I was reading the Github thread, and I was surprised people who were against it didn't mention any technical problem that may arise from these changes but only opinions about why it's OK to keep them. That alone shows me the disco
