Another consideration is that non-competes are not valid in CA but are valid in TX. I believe moonlighting is also protected under CA but not TX law.

On the pricing page, it’s difficult to scan and see the difference between the two packages. You could do “everything in basic plus:” or change colors or something else to add contrast. Also you should charge more for this book, I think it’

No doubt these innovations are impressive and will change software developers role. But I think the way to think about this is more like how ML replaced expert systems or ruby on rails helps you write less code using meta programming and co

I agree the example given is poor and as others have pointed out presents a race condition where a DB transaction would be better. I like the introduction to async/await from PouchDB blog: https://pouchdb.com/2015/

I did have this misunderstanding when relearning Promises and Async/Await in JS. The misunderstanding is actually not about await but about when a Promise is executed. The question you ask yourself when learning Promises is why calling

by faizshah 6y ago
This is true and this is the root cause of the misunderstanding from the blog. Promises execute immediately, await blocks on a promise. Promise.all and Promise.allSettled allow you to compose promises and block on a single promise instead o

Self-documenting code is a total myth. Instead of the author documenting what a piece of code does, why it does it that way and how to use it everyone who works on that code has to spend hours looking through the commit history, merge reque

Sorry, I have to completely disagree with this. This is a horrible, but often used, excuse. In my experience these coders are doing exactly what you would do in a unit test but instead they are doing it manually by adding printlns and testi

I like this quote from Kent Beck: “ It is impossible to test absolutely everything, without the tests being as complicated and error-prone as the code. It is suicide to test nothing (in this sense of isolated, automatic tests). So, of all t

Wholeheartedly agree to everything you’ve said. I have worked at a lot of places where automated testing is almost non existent. Instead they use staging/testing environments and manual testing. For all these projects they frequently h

Are we pronouncing this Ready-Search, Redis-Search, or Redis-urch? Personally I vote Ready Search but I’m also in the Postgres-Sequel camp :)
