You can make them extremely rare to non-existent. Why the US people do not jump at the opportunity is beyond me.

For nuance and to address your point, I have worked with PHP for about six years, .NET for five, C++ for two, and Python for seven. I still dabble in all of them. Who knows when I will move on to the next. Rust looks nice. I tried go. But t

Ok, now I am curious :) let's try some typical problems from the Python package ecosystem: - Can you resolve precompiled GPU dependencies with system managed CUDA driver versions? - Are there packages that can convert PDF to PNG withou

Is it a mess? Yes. But, is the problem to be solved perhaps much simpler "in other languages"? Do you interface with C++ libraries, system-managed dependencies, and perhaps your GPU in these other languages? Or are all your depend

Perhaps I'm making a stupid assumption here but isn't almost all gun violence (outside the US) committed with unregistered and/or homemade weapons? Doesn't seem like anything unusual/new to me as a European. I also

Well, unless your product makes a real positive impact on people's quality of life or the environment. :) Maybe I'm just fortunate to have such an employer. (Of course my CEO also gets rich in the process, but that's not the

I can see what you're saying. I agree and don't think it's ignorance, which is why I'm calling it false entitlement. It's all open source software, maintained by humans just like the rest of us. I'd say, go do

Well, I disagree with everything you say (especially calling this gatekeeping). You simply are unwilling to learn about the tools you're working with. I'm sorry we couldn't work it out. Best of luck!

Is node.js giving the author bullshit or did they knowingly step into a field they are unfamiliar with, getting themselves involved with a package manager, a javascript runtime, a browser, and a local fileserver? As if you were able to inst

I think it's a very bizarre assumption to think that running some code you found on the internet will just do exactly what you want right out of the box. That almost never happens.

I don't think they said they currently are. I hope for their sake they moved on because it doesn't sound like they had a particularly great time. On topic: there are plenty of great employers in our industry but you will have to m

Thanks! It seems like a very simple problem, is there a python library for vdb file IO? If so, I can probably whip something up (in python) with relative ease. I work in the medical software field by the way. I know all about the pains of d

Also I am specifically referring to the documentation on creating ahead of time compiled packages using Numba vs Cython, but perhaps that was unclear.

The ahead of time compilation output is... Well.. let's say difficult to package _properly_ (compare it to Cython where it's well supported and documented). That makes it useless for production, unless you want to ship giant conta

Start by reverse engineering things in your comfort zone. You must already use a couple of libraries in your front end work. Hone your reverse engineering skills by trying to implement the same thing yourself. It's mostly about the abi
