When someone has lived 70+ years and done fine for most of those years. What is the use for them to learn what an "icon" on the "desktop" is, and why should they care about "browsers"? This very much feels like

With pure code you cannot really do much of practical value. You can perhaps compute values, solve relational or logic problems, do math, etc., but you only end up with results at the end of computations. Even that may require monads to pri

I read it as Ender successfully solved the problems that he were educated and grown into to solve, despite no known solution existing and while having to be creative and improvise in a "no win scenario". The book is a critique, bu

Stop feeding either "side". We have more pressing issues, like accellerating temperature trapping in earth's biodome. It's crisis time and both "sides" are loosing.

Can't wait to get a few dozen of those boilerplate CRUD apps! Sounds like that's going to take off any time now.

During crisis decade post 1999, many shifted to better pastures, not content with being played like pawns and having bleak outlooks. Now, many developers having regretted biting the bullet for two f. decades are thinking the same, after qui

Define religion as a societal organization, beliefs as mental convictions without proofs, and faith as determination and grit towards hope and higher goals. Then by the very process of dismantling organized religion, whatever core is

But you get your job done? Git's just another tool. My guess is you've got bigger fish to fry.

If they're shorting or just holding for a short time it's trading. Otherwise long-term positions are investments.

Most managers climb the corporate ladder by leaving the rubble behind for others to deal with. They usually never learned to actually solve problems, and just scale the same tactics organisation-wide. This creates a culture of helplessness

Make yourself your own git cheatsheet of what you need, and maintain it with examples from usage. It'll click in place and be useful.

IT desk pro tip: 1) Have you checked DNS? It's usually a problem with DNS. 2. Have you tried turning it off and on again? 3) Is the power cable plugged in the socket? 4) Sigh , I'll travel up to look at it. Done! :)

First and foremost you should write docs for yourself. They need to be short, concise and practical. You only get there by using them yourself. All the long-winded, theoretical C&C docs in the world won't provide enough actionable

In general, people who do most work tend to keep everyone around them hostage. People usually lack access to even basic stuff and nobody builds the organisation, usually. The book The Unicorn Project shows how it is dysfunctional. Leaders t

To most people stuff is irrelevant until they actually get the time to work on it, have to collaborate and have access to it. In most cases 3/3 aren't present, and is why pair programming was discovered. The culture is simply set

We could point out why would you need design patterns when the language directly supports them natively, but can't since this is a Go thread ;)

It is as you say problem dependent. In a high level language, you could start off with a generic std lib sort. Or you could start off with the intended sort algo and improve on it. The point is to make it more or less straight-forward and

Make code obvious such that someone else tackling the same problem could write the same obvious structure and solution. Writing the naive code first, then optimizing, makes it more obvious how to accomplish this, including non-obvious comme

One trick to question your own biases is: "If everybody were doing this, including people I don't like too much, how would that be?" I doubt the author would like the same, and projecting your bad unprocessed negative emotion
