That's the exact opposite of what a good manager would do. They'd take the blame for things that go wrong and credit the team for everything good that was accomplished. They'd be an advocate for their team and their reports i

If you think this point further though: does that make companies overstaffed or just mismanaged? Apparently cash flow supports companies to have these dev teams on staff, what if they worked on something that was a good investment of their

The problem with solutions like this is that color rendering index of RGB LEDs is abysmal to the point that I can't really stand it. I ended up just using 2300K high CRI bulbs throughout.

Data point 1: US unemployment at 3.7% is at a record low. Data point 2: Part of my job is hiring mid or senior engineers on the west coast (or remote) with good salary/rsu/compensation packages (not quite FAANG level but not far o

The problem with this is that it breaks some tooling (async stack traces in Chrome dev tools for example).

Slightly OT: Massive layoffs are happening for some companies, but the market is still extraordinarily great and it's currently incredibly easy to get a better job than you had when you were laid off. As long as the general environment

What makes you think that there is an oversupply of (good) Software Engineers? All I see every day is that it's still pretty difficult to hire good people.

Is your point that it doesn't matter if those "pictures of an internal slack channel" actually contain trade secrets of if they show some people posting blue hearts to cheer up their coworkers? IANAL but I think it does matte

I don't think the message that the tweet in question violates Twitter's rules would appear in this case.

Glad to see that Stripe has a pretty good package for the laid off employees. This is the right way to do this and I imagine the vast majority of people laid off will be able to find new jobs fast and pocket some of the severance pay.

Yeah growing up in Germany gave me this illusion that all children can actually get a decent (even if not super spectacular) publicly funded education somewhat independent of social background.

Most people in 2022 have plenty of free bytes on their disks so they don't really care about how long their code is. If you want short code, I can recommend Fortran 77, no identifiers longer than 6 characters allowed.

The solution is not to create ever more complicated adjustments but to make sure that all children get great education (and nutrition) from early childhood, even if they are disadvantaged at home. Rolling it up from the other side by giving

Absolutely. The reason for this is that C++ has been around for a long time while maintaining backwards compatibility (to C too mostly). I know no language where it's as important to have excellent automated tooling that restricts usag

C++ is a tool and it still has its use. If you have ever tried to slowly sprinkle Rust into a large C++ code base you will know that it's hard, laborious and error-prone. For completely new projects that don't need existing C++ l

No I haven't. Will totally do that in order to save time explaining to friends why they can't use Apple Maps for navigation to my house. I just assumed that submitting maps bugs is the same /dev/null form as normal bugs

If this was true, salaries would be way up. Are they? Not from what I can tell. I recently switched to a web dev role and didn't have the impression that demand for my (imho considerable) C++ skills was crazy high.

There's also the opposite problem: older devs will use outdated features and have best practices in place that are now considered antipatterns. This exacerbates the existing difficulties to modernize legacy code bases and creates incen

"From what I understand, Google is really about a crippled subset of C++, that people jokingly call "C+-"." Chrome is pretty good at using modern C++ FWIW.

Apple Maps still can't accurately route people to my house in suburban California. They end up one block over.

Exactly. If there was a way to determine the least performing 50% of employees in a matter of two days, they wouldn't be there in the first place anymore. Even if you fire them, that's a surefire way of making sure that the best 5
