As a senior dev who wants to work part-time for a moderate salary, I can tell you one reason is that recruiters do not want their applicants to end up with a lower salary! This I think explains a large part of why it feels like there’s a st

That would lead to a huge influx in money from VCs wanting to fill the vacuum and jobs as advertisers suddenly have a harder, less scalable job to get an outreach. European countries can and should take them up on that. Thanks to GDPR peopl

Like a sibling comment I’d also like to know what was bad about the SDK. It seems.. alright? That alone is good enough for me considering its implementation is autogenerated from something else. It also has tree-shakeable imports which v2 d

Resigned some time ago from my last job. I’d much prefer a comfortable salary and working 3 days per week than more salary than I need and working 5 days a week, and I definitely want to keep those extra days to work on my own interests.

I’m relieved this (eventually) happened. Every day those consent forms remain up is like a giant F. U. from Google at GDPR. It’s not like they didn’t realise they were completely non-compliant.

There’s a lot of selection bias, since a great many developers who would quit when asked to brazenly disregard privacy also wouldn’t interview at Google or Facebook in he first place. There’s a lot of a-moralistic attitude towards FAANG on

Could anyone explain why LZ77 is preferred by implementors versus LZ78? It seems important for compressibility to prepare the data for maximum self-similarity, in addition to the LZ algorithms (as evidenced by the sort in this article). Cou

Yes, I think it’s fair to think of it as a kind of quality inflation like shrinkflation. The reason it gets me frustrated is that while shrinkflation is a difference of quantity, quality inflation is a qualitative difference, sometimes to t

It's good to see entropy being used as the metric to judge passwords instead of complexity rules. As others have commented, this isn't sufficient though, and will over-estimate the complexity of worded passphrases or l33t-speak. P
