Web browsers are for serving website content, their job isn't to moderate content especially at the level you're describing. If you want to write your own filter/extension to preserve your eyes from being exposed to unfamilia

The largest portion of the article is spent on comparing performance, and then at the end they say that performance doesn't really matter (which is probably true).

Oh I get all of these, maybe I have some confusion about the difference between a terminal and a terminal emulator. Take MacOS for example - there's the default Terminal app. It can do all the things you're describing out of the b

No, it's not normal imo - you have 100 people in your engineering department, that's too many for the VP to be touching any code. If your company was only a handful of people, it would have beeen understandable. At tens of employe

There's also quite a few new-to-the-industry data engineers who are just starting out (many more than junior DevOps or SRE). It's a decently sized track for people who are graduating with CS degrees and for those who are switching

Yeah, it's messy. From the applicant side I prefer the title software engineer over data engineer. A more general title is better for career flexibility, and for some reason I've run into quite a few teams where the DEs have lower
