Would it be fair for these ads to target everyone equally? I think we are focusing on the wrong thing. Go to these colleges and see which demographic is most prevalent. Then teach that group that those colleges are... Wait, what's the

It reminds me of a book by Seth Godin where after reading 3 quarters of the book he goes: "I didn’t write this book. What I mean is that Seth Godin didn’t write this book. It was written by a freelancer for hire named Mo Samuels. Godin

Last Sunday, I was walking down the street with my kids when a man bumped into me trying to cross the street. He turned around to apologize and we had a discussion at the red light. He was working a 12 hour shift and was now on his break wh

Some people made the distinction here, jwt on the front end vs the micro services across the network. I've experienced more than once, issues where the auth service has bugs and the logged out session is still valid for a long time. Or

I believe it is easier to create a language when you are "younger" because it's the only time you don't know what you are up against. I remember one of my coworkers who worked in marketing and had a side project. He aske

The current trend is butt-in driven operations. For every action you are already familiar with, and have performed several times, copilot butts in to show you an annoying way to do it with copilot. But first create a Microsoft account. Thi

I built an webapp for my kids that was supposed to run on a raspberry pi plugged to a 4k tv. Having these blurred tiles that swoosh on the screen looks amazing on my laptop. Running this on the RP4 was less than 1fps. Turned off the blur it

As someone working in telecom, we often hear customers telling us that their bank account has been wiped clean. How did they get there? Sim swap. A bad actor manages to transfer the phone number into a sim card they control. Now they have p

There is no easy way to reject. But I think a phone call with talking points is the best way. Some saying an email is better, but then you literally start to form a relationship with the company. You have several interviews, you are in cons

This is exactly what I meant. He started building a small straight to the point example and didn't show the result.

The author was just shy of showing the results of the example he provided, but then didn't. I think this could be a useful tool in the IDE. Imagine vscode highlighting a line and suggesting another place to put it instead. Neat.

I can't afford a home, even though I'm considered a high earner. But always ask, how much is an affordable house? In California the answer can vary between 200k to a million dollars. Travel across the states and the range continue

The db connections were poorly managed. Each query started by starting a new connection. It then checked if it failed, slept, retried, then ran. There were several queries called in loops, so the connection pool was always dry. The code spe

I understand the magnitude of innovation that's going on here. But still feel like we are generating these videos with both hands tied behind our backs. In other words, it's nearly impossible to edit the videos in this constraints
