The larger your codebase gets the more bazel becomes a requirement. Bazel is really not negotiable for large python code bases. The more bazel is put off, the more pain you will endure before you eventually are forced to use bazel. You wil

The government is not tech savvy. Do you think the average engineer is going to want to work for the government when they can work for industry? I wouldn't ask if they are violating the ADA, but would ask if they are resource starved o

As a person who has done FAANG technical interviews, I would be kinda weirded out and questioning if the person is a culture fit. If they are wearing a suit, how familiar with the industry are they? That's also ignoring that suits are

I don't think I would ever do that in a production environment. Maybe on my personal laptop. It's just not great from a security and trust point of view. It's also important to remember that bit-squatting is a thing, and just

Free time is great when traveling alone and less useful when traveling with friends IMHO. Alone I'd pick 1 activity and 1 restaurant per day and have a loose idea of other options. I've gotten a lot of mileage (pun intended) out o

I likely learned about it from Reddit or from a peer in University. HN is likely part of a lineage of online discourse. I was introduced to that lineage with slashdot. Slashdot -> digg -> reddit -> HN was the likely path. A lot of

In the context of slavery, when the slave owner tells a slave what to do, and they don't fight back, I wouldn't call that peace. In the context of Taiwan, I wouldn't call China's coercion of Taiwan peace even though guns

FWIW, despite having a strong favorable opinion about gun rights, given Americas clear lack of responsibility in using their gun rights for good, I think it's hard to argue against gun regulation. I am pro gun rights but not anti regul

The progressives (bernie, AOC, etc.) had very very disappointing responses to Ukraine that showed they are not ready to rule. I was particularly devastated by AOC's response.

Words are indirect references to ideas. For some, particularly oppressors, peace references the idea of lack of physical violence. To other peace references the presence of justice. If someone thinks peace is lack of violence, how do you ev
