It's not impossible, but I wouldn't say it's worth it. From my experience, there is more ageism in programming than there is in management so it would be even more difficult to find work, especially without prior experience.

True, but I see a trend where everybody is trying to "hack" reading by listening to audio books on 3x or other tricks which is a complete nonsense for professional books and absorbing the information.

What's the point? If you enjoy reading and reading for fun then you'll just read as much as is fun for you. If you're reading professional books, then the quantity doesn't matter. I would rather spend a year with a singl

I have one but it's been sitting in a drawer for a long time now. I went back to iPad Pro with Apple Pen as it's much easier to navigate around and I enjoy the color screen much more. It also allows me to use Miro or similar white

Do they pay anything to the maintainers of the packages they depend on?

I don't think that's possible since types are not present at the runtime. They are just stripped away during compilation

The methane has lower cumulative impact and is a closed loop where it gets recycled over time. [1] [1] https://onezero.medium.com/cow-farts-are-not-the-problem-f57...

It's true that methane has a much greater impact, but only in the short term. Long term, CO2 is much more dangerous. The methane that cow produces is recycled as it circulates through the atmosphere -> plants -> cows -> atmosp

I really like Firefox, but I had to switch back to Chrome because of resource usage. After using it for some time it got up to 3GB RAM consumption for a single tab with no plugins.

I strongly dislike that his words are always distorted by taking out of context this small segment of what he said. "We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time: premature optimization is the root of all evil.

You can mess up async/await in C# in exactly 0 ways. Calling .Result is just a bad practice and should never be done.

People can't even align divs properly. I would say AGI is further away than most people think.

The correct number is actually 100% (or close to it). It just depends how many generations back the family immigrated.

Why does it break the first rule of agile software development? "That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more."

I would say - The ABI is not stable yet - The compiler is not the fastest - Doesn't work on all architectures (compared to C in the embedded space) While those are potential downsides, they don't have to be. It all depends on what

Sounds like a nightmare to me. Something that could've been a module in a regular application is split across multiple services introducing multiple network calls that can fail (not to mention the response time once the workflow grows)

It's part of the Blub Paradox[1]. If you don't know about better things, you won't miss them. But once you do know about more powerful things, it's hard to go back to living without them. [1] http://paulgraham

It's not a common denominator. If I need a Customer aggregate or a Payment aggregate it doesn't matter if I get it from SQL or Document database as long as I get that aggregate. My code doesn't care about query implementation

Why wouldn't you be able to take advantage of those systems? I think it's quite the opposite where you can take the advantages without even knowing about it / affecting other parts of the system.
