Why you think Trump is pro-Russian? Republicans are anti-Russian, AFAIK.

Exactly. After burnout, I spending a lot of time trying to kill code and make simpler designs. However, my outsource firm does not like that.

Most of these infections are easy to detect and cure with vitamins and antibiotics. For billions of lbs of meat consumed monthly in USA, how often this is the problem? Diseases are not a (massive) problem when animals already have quite eff

If you redirect stdin to /dev/null, to see error messages, you will not see these error messages. If you try to grep them by "error" keyword, you will not see them either. So you will have two options — read everything u

Every farm animal has vaccine production built-in, so it does not matter.

I saw so many bugs, so I switched from "code is working" by default to "code is broken" by default unless it proven that code is working correctly at target environment with required constraints. Moreover, test cases are

I pointed to one bug: error messages are not redirected to stderr in shell scripts. It's small bug, because it will affect development only, but I found it. I need to find just one bug to prove my point, isn't?

The problem with analog computing was that they tend to oscillate or pickup noise which greatly limits their usefulness for precise calculations. With quantum computing, you will need to use series of runs and average them. For simple cases

It's very unlikely. Quantum computing is just a bunch of random generators (very fast generators indeed) with bunch of filters on top of them. They good for searching a solution in broad space, but that is all. It's reinvention of

No nightmares. It's result of propaganda, which pictured Trump as pro-russian, so some, which are susceptible to propaganda, are in worry because of war with Russia. I, personally, welcome republicans. Ukraine is republic, by Constitut

Peer review is just request for short review. "Shortly look at this new piece of code, before I will commit it into our repository, and say your opinion." That's all. If you will ask me to review piece of your code, written l

It is easy to make Linux complex as hell. Lot of man-hours is required to keep it simple. Major distributions and open-source licenses are playing major role in "simple Linux". Patching, bug hunting, fixing, development of standar

Number of ways are developed to circumvent that in countries where police and court are not strong enough: * bribing of voters to bring their empty ballot to briber; * fake voters (commission is not police, they are not checking documents a

+1 Right on the spot. TDD requires you to draw your target first, then hit or miss it with the code, like in science: hypotheses -> confirmation/declining via experiments -> working theory. But in practice, lot of coders are hitt

In such cases, I use "torture" test cases: lengthy, random test cases, which are trying to abuse and overload system with no data, incorrect data, random data, huge data, high latencies, duplicated messages, missed messages or ran

If you CAN build good team of freelancers, you can start your own outsource firm.

Thanks you, I got the idea.

by lisivka 10y ago
Each test case increases confidence in the system by small amount. Confidence never can approach 100% (because we need to predict future to achieve that), so no amount of testing can give you 100% confidence, only 80%, 95% (2x price), 98% (

It's called «freelancing». It's way cheaper and worse than outsourcing.

Customer representative directly in outsource office solves this kind of problems. Otherwise you need developers which are both experts in development AND experts in the field of your application.

Peer review is not for filtering software. Peer review is process which used by (professional) developers to help each other to catch bugs and share experience and best practices. Basically, I said him that I found bugs and/or bad prac

Why you think that debugging and fixing deadlock in cluster in production (of multibillion business) is easier and cheaper than writing of functional test case? Maybe you just prefer trips to angry customer versus boring office work. :-&#x2
