Are the concepts pretty directly transferable and the engineers senior? Specific technologies don’t matter all that much. Junior engineer? Might take a bit longer to ramp up. Switching between firmware development and web apps? That’s going

So are they hiring you to transition them to a real database?

BigCo may not have been hacked. Could also be that they sold your data. Either to someone unethical or to someone who resold it or to someone who got hacked.

Um, pants suits for women are a thing. And skirt suits are SUITs. With jackets and shirts and everything.

In professions where a suit is de rigeur (law, banking, consulting, etc.) they sure as hell do.

Yeah. The other interesting bit was how it could cost 1/1000 as much as the existing state of the art (pennies per bandage instead of $100s), which is pretty cool.

Because bandaids aren’t already painful enough to remove?

I’d call it a tactic, not a trend. It’s been around since the advent of halfway decent comment sections.

Because ctrl is important for terminal users, but Mac keyboards have it only in a very awkward almost unreachable place - so remapping caps lock to ctrl is a very common fix (which is supported natively in the settings app, too).

But then your only control key is in an almost unusable location, which is even worse!

For summer, don’t forget linen, which is amazing at evaporative cooling. Linen blends can be decent too if you’re concerned about wrinkles and hate ironing.

Any takers on how long it will be before illicit declawing facilities start to pop up in storage units and abandoned warehouses?

When education is used as a hiring filter, it’s usually at the resume stage, where other signals are week. Once you’ve reached on-site it’s about what you know and can do, not what pieces of paper you possess. Being self-taught as a program

So now your test suite takes 15 minutes to run instead of 15 seconds. Sure, that doesn’t matter at all.

3-year leases aren’t all that uncommon. I’ve also been at a SmallCo that would buy brand new top of the line Mac laptops for developers and number crunchers, and then cycle them down after a few years to staff whose workloads were less dema

Where I was, that was very much all they used it for. Hope it’s the same for you. FWIW, they only asked us to very roughly divide our time up with a minimum of 8 hours per workday (anything not allocated to a project or maintenance went to

You can redirect domain A to domain B if you own domain A but have nothing to do with domain B. That means nothing.

I’m not a lawyer. But as @mtmail points out, they’re legally obliged to defend it even if they don’t give a hoot about your particular site. So if you ignore it, they may have no choice but to pursue legal action - as in a lawsuit. That cou

As in paying for relocation? Or just as in hiring people who have plans to relocate? We do the latter (if the person does not require visa sponsorship). We can’t afford the former. Hiring someone is risky enough as it is without adding extr
