I really don't buy that a resume alone can sufficiently put across your actual level of ability as a Software Engineer. And there are plenty of people who are better talkers than doers. One way or another I think it's entirely rea

That's (among other things) what the walkthrough / debrief is for. I like the format, but it obviously has other downsides, such as a higher up-front investment from the candidate. That being said I found the format enjoyable last

What you said is basically a tautology. "This method of mentoring won't work if you have bad mentors". The person you're describing shouldn't be mentoring. The problem isn't the methodology, but their personali

I've had the same experience installing Ubuntu on a computer with a broadcom wireless chip. It all just comes down to chance unless you buy a hardware + OS combo, which generally actually means mac or Windows. If you install your own O

Your first argument boils down to "it's difficult to leave so why bother". That's an objectively terrible reason to stay, no matter your political affiliation or feelings about the EU. As far as the "old people did

Dear God I can't believe they've gone and done that to their consumer brand. It inspires no confidence, the visual style actually overwhelms the content on the page to the point where the product itself and its values fail to be

Shipping is a really interesting application I had never really considered! That seems like a perfect fit, like you say. Is provenance in general a good usecase? e.g. chain of custody for evidence / drug testing / food labelling?

A lot of people here are projecting their dislike of software patents onto this whole issue which is a big mistake. IANAL but I don't see anywhere in the PATENTS file where it restricts this issue to software patents. In fact it explic

Let's say 51% of the country was against abortion, but you live in a state where 100% of the people approve of abortion. Now, why would people need different healthcare based on different states? Not everyone agrees with your definitio

I did this too. It is mostly fine as you say but it does feel a bit clunky at times in my opinion. I really just wish vscode could run effectively native (local file system) in a browser tab. Throw in a few other goodies and it would be a t

I used my CB30 as a dev machine for a little while, both using cloud environments (koding, codeanywhere) and using vscode under crouton. It is so close to being usable. It is such a user friendly operating system, it just falls short on a

Sounds pretty decent! Would be interested in trying it if my employer didn't roll its own team chat for this purpose. Maybe Slack should be worried too. They may have a tough road ahead growing into the valuation between Facebook Workp

I don't think I've really heard much about that product since the announcement. Is it good? And are accounts tied to Facebook proper? That would turn me off completely.
