My experience has been different. I currently maintain about 280 different API integrations. I have a team that does constant maintenance. Usually 1-2 API breaking changes per day is what we see after you get past the stable big ones. Ev

Our original plan was just to use homeschooling material to supplement things he probably wasn't learning well enough like math and some language stuff. He told me he wished he had workbooks to use, but now after seeing the disorganiz

3rd Grade is a nightmare in our district where the apparent idea was to settle for the worst possible online experience. It's a google slides deck that the kids have to edit. They've been assigning the same work accidentally day

Unfortunately in my experience that "only" represents a somewhat large percentage of HR or hiring managers.

I've been in a somewhat similar boat. Similar age and experience at least. I don't have the answers to your career questions, unfortunately, my suggestion is pick something that excites you and do that. Your career (and life) wil

I'm a vim + fugitive user who tried emacs for a year about 2 years ago. I eventually moved back to vim but the thing I miss from emacs is magit. It made so much sense to me. Loved it.

? That entire first line seems entirely unrelated the the words I typed. Did you respond to the correct person?

Your edit got under my skin way more than your comment did. Kiss of death seemed melodramatic at best though. Every CEO, CTO, and CFO I've worked with had kids. Guess they were the lucky few who didn't have their professional ca

This is great timing. I was just spinning up a new service using redis this morning. Thanks for the constant work you put into this project.

It's a bit of a guilty pleasure for me to read these kinds of weird things with no practical application. It's just a little refreshing to read about something technically possibly, but frivolous (no offense meant to the OP, of c

Rereading my comment, I see that I underplayed how important the portability of the switch is to me.

So, I have an 8 year old. The switch is probably the most fun couch gaming we can do together. We also have an xbox and a pc for games, and we usually ignore them both in favor of Nintendo exclusives. Pokemon, BOTW, Smash Bros. It's

I don't think that person means you literally can't know, just that it increases the difficulty of reasoning through the code. I was debugging some code earlier today. Someone had put a global variable that is either altered or u

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I remember videos of Chinese people, very unhappily, being forced to stay in their homes by armed guards, as opposed to them obediently trusting their government. Maybe I'm misremembering?

I think your comment is probably tongue-in-cheek but I still want to throw my support in with the person you replied to. The longer I've been at the company I'm at, the less interested I am in how cool something is and the more in
