Sure, maybe the point about "PRODUCTION" may not have applied, I was mainly commenting on OPs post about how we've all been in a situation and the steps I take to avoid such situations. I'm curious about your arguments a

Would the steps I describe prevent actions taken in the GitLab incident? I would never make no assumptions to that. Maybe. Maybe not. Did I say following those steps would make it unlikely to happen to you? No. That's why I prefaced it

I'm no sysadmin, and I know mistakes are inevitable and all... but I find this kind of mistake is unlikely to come from me. I feel as though a lot of developers are too nonchalant about production boxes. I think one or two close calls

Read through their benefits, they are competitive, but nowhere near enough to make up for the difference in salary.

Maxed out everything in my city (Cleveland) before I was able to reach a salary I'd consider, and I'm hardly a Senior engineer. I wouldn't call their salary range a spit in the face, but its probably around $20k below market

A year or two ago that was the case. Then io.js forked, implemented a bunch of features and later was brought back into the NodeJS fold. Since then, Node has been a lot more proactive about keeping up with newer specs.

I did actually encounter this solution while researching the problem, didn't love it, but you can check out the solution at: https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/13490#issuecomment-1... As long as you

Curious what methods others use for handling secrets at build time (using docker-compose). I'm currently installing (private) dependencies at runtime by mounting my secrets as a volume. I couldn't find a method that didn't se

I treat the comments in my code as notes... things future developers will need to know, TODO's, occasionally why I'm doing things a certain way, or other things that may be forgotten. I try to make the code as readable as possible

Make it fun! My company recently hosted an Hour of Code to teach young kids to learn how to code. Since your goal is to teach them without necessarily being present every day, you may need to change things around, but their website is an am

> never be dogmatic about anything Mostly agree with that with the exception of learning new things. Sometimes it helps to be dogmatic about things if your goal is to learn something new. A prime example is TDD. When my goal is to build

It isn't a requirement, but they all provide apps that allow you to sync, and when you download any file, you're downloading a local copy of them. The people who know how to properly secure files aren't the same people readin

Someone else may be better at explaining the differences than me, as neither are my area of expertise. My understanding is that they both provide a view layer, and Titanium provides more of an everything-included framework so you don't

by lojack 10y ago
React.js is the view layer for a website, ReactNative is the view layer for a native app. In both instances you could call back to a database, but React doesn't provide any of those abstractions. Neither is really a full featured frame

I suppose "dogma" was the incorrect word in that case.

I think that goes against the python dogma of "Explicit is better than implicit." In #1 and #2 there is no question about where 'x' comes from, while in #3 it could be a class variable or a global variable or from just a

The chains stretch over time, and teeth of the cassette get worn. The more you ride the quicker this happens. If you take it to a shop, they can quickly measure the chain to make sure you're good. Chains are pretty common to replace an

Absolutely 100%. The only time I ever call a company for support is when they don't have chat. My company provides both chat and phone support to our customers (many of whom aren't technically savvy) and chat is overwhelmingly mor

How obvious is this to the user? This seems like a detail that'd be easily overlooked.

It's helpful to separate performance from the ability to perform. It's generally not the greatest idea to prematurely optimize, but you should absolutely be making decisions that give you the flexibility to optimize in the future.

Most people learning it professionally are doing it so they can work with an existing code base. How is learning a different language going to help them with that?

Just to provide a counter point, in my experience, the biggest problem I face in winter weather is other drivers. I know when I hit a patch of black ice and have difficulty stopping that the oversized van behind me is going to have more dif

If they're referring to the typical classification of autonomous vehicles, Level 5 is complete autonomy. Level 3 refers to human intervention required for everything but highway driving in good conditions. Of course, they may be referr

That seems like click bait to me. I believe they require a permit for a fully autonomous vehicle, but since there's a driver in the car monitoring the systems with the ability to override, it isn't considered fully autonomous. Thi

This may be a level of service you expect, but isn't something traditionally handled by the manufacturers.

Forgive me in my ignorance of how antibacterials work, but wouldn't an equally plausible explanation be that these bacteria's simply haven't developed characteristics that modern antibacterial drugs target?

I mean, there's always a cost/benefit to calling the police. Wouldn't personally waste a call on many things. If I feel threatened, the benefit usually far outweighs the cost (personally, but I understand that this isn't
