   If a symphonic performer can't run through some scales, or a doctor cant suture a laceration, I would say that is indicative of a major problem. If you owned a restaurant, would you hire a hostess that couldn't operate a telephone

   I do agree with you that the system blocks more people than it should. Personally, I think there should be many more apprenticeships than there are currently. There are many technical roles that can be fulfilled by people of all backgrounds

   Agree. I used to be against the technical interview process, but now I wholeheartedly believe in every facet of it (Leetcode, book knowledge, project based behavioral questions, system design). The quicker everyone learns these important co

   "No one is mislabeing the flu as covid". There have been 33 million positive coronavirus cases and 444 million tests-- are you sure you want to assert the following is true 100% of the time: 1) all covid diagnoses are ONLY covid 2

   While I am sure that masks and no working from the office played a part in this, I believe: 1) most flu cases are being mislabeled as covid 2) most people who have a mild flu are not going to the doctor 3) the easiest way to test this will

    Hehehe, at least you got my point :) For me, the novelty with cars is extracting value for them very efficiently, but I must concede that others do not care at all about price/enjoyment ratio at all, or at least have very different enj

    Every factory needs a factory, and the Instantiator design pattern is highly ergonomic compared to using "new".

    It's a bit prevalent, not very, but more importantly Spring is built entirely around AbstractBeanFactoryFactoryInstantiators and we're all using them by proxy.

    It's strictly not. Marine soldiers are not asked to pass a submarine piloting test, they're asked to complete a swimming test. Why is this important? Because how can one import a library for a problem that currently has no solutio

    If I dictated every ascii character of Romeo and Juliet to you, would you then call yourself a playwright? I would call you a good typist. EDIT: I never cook with a recipe and do everything by taste, feel, and instinct.

    Nobody wants to do hard labor for $15 an hour in a costly place to live when they could be paid to stay at home while doing nothing, with an optional side hustle as well.
