While I won't subscribe to PewDiePie because I'm just not interested in that kind of content... I disagree with very, very little of this piece. Sad state of affairs.

I can get past most of Go's weird idiosyncracies... Except for the odious error handling. Reading go code makes my eye twitch, and the biggest reason is its error handling. And sadly I'm now stuck with it, and not even the changes

You're awfully unfamiliar with the history of computer science if you truly believe that dynamic typing is some sort of recent invention or that static typing is some panacea that solves all of your problems. Both systems of type check

Disagree on the implication that the kanban flow (which is essentially what he described by moving stories between different phases) is inherently a waterfall; it is in as much as the idea that a project is expected to be completed (or at l

IDK about you, but I find it writing a command and seeing the result is far, far faster than clicking around. I would spend far less time at my computer (would only use it for work) if it only had a CLI, but I would never, never use a GUI (

I can't stand this type of "gotcha" questions like "tell me about a time you failed". They're almost designed to make the interviewed misstep and, in so, waste everyone's time. "Why should we hire you

Most of the problems pointed out can be reduced into "confusing indirection as abstraction", which is a sin of many OOP developers, particularly those obsessed with design patterns. IMO, OOP is not inherently any more flawed tha
