I see that but I also see the opposite. Sys Admins blaming monkey devs for things like requiring all ports open or rdp access with root. There's so much negative blame torwards the workers for mgmt decisions and the resulting shit. Ex:

Queue driven systems really fascinate me, coming from a chemical engineering background I can't help but to see parallels to fluid dynamics and all that difficult math that comes from their analysis. I've always wanted to create s

I recently took over a large (new) data engineering project. After being given almost no direct, I sat down and read this book and let it assist me with my design. When we reviewed the design I mentioned a few points that were like: "Y

Very cool project. I work at a GDS and I build slack apps for nonprofit organizations. Love to see two of interests used in New ways. Good luck with your success.

This is called A flex, this is very common. Sadly is one of the most compute expensive searches as you have a combinatorics order of day pairs.

Yeah, this is a thing. So many reasons but essentially the initial request returns a fare that is invalid when you try to book. But there's also issues where the carriers play games by reserving flights for specific customers. By custo

Expedia isn't checking availability, a middle man is, (one of the three GDS). The middleman isn't checking availability every time because there's a cost to ask the carrier. And if you ask too much they will rate limit or den

Just a general question in regards to using memory allocators, in the consideration of a C only application. The problems I encounter with allocator and heap manager are almost never solved by these types of frameworks. These problems inclu

Out of all the scheduling problems the author could have talked about: min connect time, early departures, interline agreements, incidental stops. This has to be one of the more reasonable ones. Many of the above hint at problems that provi

Do companies like expedia look to hire people moving from the GDS? I'm not sure I want to stay in the travel industry, but I really like the challenging problems. Just not sure I want to stay with the current company I'm at.

As someone who is on a personal journey to transition from c with classes thinking to modern c++ I can see why there's so much hate from non-cpp developers about how these features look ugly. But, as a developer, who has dealt with an
