Is there something which I need to explain better to you to understand what I am saying? I am really puzzled by your thinking TBH. This is not a binary thing. It's not like you either have the information or not. It's more like yo

I don't think this has anything to do with free speech to be honest. Even though I find it odd and upsetting that free speech is severely limited for the worse in other contexts in the corporate world.

It's not irrelevant because there might be other platforms where you can buy the same product cheaper. And the 30 percent cut information might be a good hint to look elsewhere. I guess that's why Apple fights this so viciously.

Imagine that they upgrade the touch UI in your car, and it's a complete redesign, but only on one specific screen in a sub-sub-sub-menu which you usually only open while driving. Now you are speeding with 150km/h down the highway

I wish this problem would be more 'forefront' in legislation, because TBH this is already at the point of being ridiculous, completely out of touch and also FINANCIALLY DAMAGING to the customers and/or users.

The exact thing that makes development fast is not to make decisions. In fact, this is such a fundamental principle that Uncle Bob spells it out this way: "A good architect maximizes the number of decisions not made" and I wholehe

Now the submission is even flagged. This reminds me of fascism TBH

Why is this flagged???? I argued with many people on this site that people here are indocteinated... But really? People can't even stand reading something which is well argued and contradicts their belief?

Anyone who writes a blog and happily announces to the world that he thinks there are idiots everywhere should not give advice in the first place IMHO. This is what I would call pretentious signaling behavior if there would be such a term.

Just to let you know, those things are not needed at all if you use a different type of ORM, similar to ActiveRecord or Django ORM. It all depends on what you choose. So probably the first mistake was that you didn't do the homework of

by fogetti 6y ago
In my experience people who have trouble with ORM usually try to use it for something which it is not well suited for: namely OLAP. ORM can really get in the way when you want to express groupings, aggregates, and all kind of joins sprinkle

I couldn't care less if you ban me or not. I will change account and keep posting. Also there is nothing personal in that message. And this is not the first time that some displeased person flags my message just because he feels unsecu

I think the point is, that these type of articles are like fairy tales. I wouldn't be surprised if Quora would be the first to announce an in-office only policy when the pandemic is over. If it turns out so, then the whole interview an

You just dismissed one cornerstone of modern civilization. Namely higher education. Good job I guess?

BTW, another thing: are you saying that computer science departments are not deemed to properly accredit people in computer science knowledge...? But no-name low-ranking SW engineers in a dim-lit meeting room in front of a whiteboard are go

You completely missed the second part of my post: "The whole hiring process could be replaced with a timely renewal of accreditation." The accreditation would be available to anyone. Just like anyone can become a lawyer in Japan f

Conversely: Is it simply a coincidence that people like whiteboard interviews and believe they work? Seems pretty convenient to me.

Can someone explain to me why isn't it ever part of the discourse to talk about certifications? Most of the software engineers are certified right from the start when they graduate in university. All these people hold a certification i

Take home assignments can be automated the same way as leetcode tasks actually. So there must be something else to it. I think people underestimate human nature in this case. It's a known thing that many interviewers just do the interv

by fogetti 6y ago
I think you made a logical somersault. Leetcode doesn't imply any of those, neither good memory for details or that you can "solve" problems that have been solved before by applying theory. You missed the whole point of the O

You can confirm the same using a take-home assignment and a code review together with the candidate. Or even with an on-site pair programming. Neither of those require whiteboards.

Not at all. Hypocrisy is the act of criticizing OTHERS for something, while engaging in the same behavior. That's completely beside the point and no-one talks about that here.

by fogetti 6y ago
In other words, beside my previous comment you missed the part of the discussion where we concluded (see the grandparent's post again) that both the value and the behavior originates from the same source. This has nothing to do with an

You miss the point actually. The poster made a statement without any proof. It's a classic logical fallacy. And your example...? Proves what exactly? It's the exact opposite of a cognitive dissonance. The behavior is consistent wi

by fogetti 6y ago
That's actually incorrect. Cognitive dissonance means that someone's behavior, attitude or thoughts, beliefs are inconsistent. Or in other words someone participates in an action that goes against his beliefs, ideas, values. Which

Can you point me to the discussion where I can confirm that this has become a buzzword?
