I like a code review process better than a coding exercise for sure, but it’s not clear to me that it helps avoid LLM-enabled interview “performance enhancement”. Avoiding “take home” is a big step, but even in real-time determined LLM use

It’s a genuine miracle that human society functions. How do we have schools, hospitals and joy given all we are? I have no idea. But I’m deeply grateful.

I’m a Range request fan-boy, so thanks for sharing. Byte-indexing static objects is basically a brilliant point of light in the dark universe of code. I have fixed dozens of systems that read entire zip files over the network and into memor

I was bullied as a child, and it is something I remember vividly to this day. As a result I was kept in at recess, found a computer, played a game on it, figured out how to make little modifications to it, and… a couple stints each at VPE a

That’s an effectively intractable (and common problem). Even when there is a board involved, a skip-level approach to pointing it out is very likely an end of employment situation. Machiavelli had advice for this situation, and it wasn’t ki

Oh, that sounds like a challenge… Is the challenge here the same as with digital simulations of electronic circuits? That is, at the end of the day analog physics becomes confounding? Or are you doing deterministic simulation of random RF n

No, StepFunctions is a different beast. I didn't build it, so I'm just guessing but I suspect it's running a shared backend for all state machines so there is no static initialization, etc. to speak of. Don't be confuse

I think the biggest issue with workflow tools vs code is that a visual representation of a software system doesn’t made it any less complicated, and often the workflow system makes it even worse. I say this while building AWS Step Function

That’s true, the front-facing VMs always need to be there (hence the product I’m working on — so at least you don’t need to run them). The real work is done in serverless, in batches. Basically I think the world needs something like API Gat

That’s a depends situation. If you’re using direct service integration instead of Lambda, it can be cheaper. And, if you use VMs only as the front-end to push batches of requests to serverless compute you get the best of both worlds and the
