This article is pretty condescending towards startup engineers. There’s a lot more to scope of responsibility than the number of users your decisions will impact. As a founding engineer you have the success of the entire business on your sh

if the owner of rg3d is reading, your friend Adam is a big reason I’m not emotionally (or financially) invested in your project. his incessant negativity on every “competing” project reflects poorly on your community. I suggest you politely

I went through this. It was one of the hardest things I've done in my career, but it has proved to be the best strategic move I have made. I am much happier and my scope of influence in our organization is still wide, just more technic

we canned our Kubernetes implementation after actual years of trying to glue together tools at a medium sized company with a small engineering team. we switched to Nomad and are very happy. I am of the belief that there's an inverse be

not sure if I completely understand the race you describe, but I don't think there's any race. the paths and links are created at build/install time. nothing is switching around after the expression has been applied. edit: ma

Of course newer, high spec models are coming. In the meantime, I’ve spent 6 or so months developing and working on my favorite laptop I’ve ever used, and I anticipate high resale when a newer version comes out. Explain how I have been short

The "security by obscurity" one-liner is one of my favorite examples of the sort of black-and-white thinking that is harmful to software engineering. The truth is that playing defense is as much an exercise of technical design as

you just described supply and demand. supply is limited, recruiters poach, demand increases, salaries increase.

DisplayLink is a software encoded and compressed video stream that the hardware dongle decompresses on display. The experience is not great on my M1 MacBook Air. Sometimes it doesn't work and I have to plug/unplug, DisplayLink doe

probably. but the difference in performance for IntelliJ was night and day, and given the inability to uninstall rosetta and AB test I don’t really want to play with it again.

I think it will. I am personally targeting arm64/Graviton2 on my side projects because the cost/performance improvement is noticeable. I think this will only snowball for adoption in work environments.

I am disappointed that this still requires Rosetta to install, negating the point of targeting Apple Silicon for my usecase. I recently had to wipe my machine to remove Rosetta (there's no "uninstall"), and saw quite a signif

“better than anyone else” is not really how I think you should approach leveling, personally.

what’s wrong with bonuses in this case? % based salary increases purely on performance compound out of control if you’re not careful, and lead to widely disparate pay. I’d prefer clearly defined salary banding and bonus structure, personall

yeah! don’t they remember the glory days and freedom of choice to wait in a virtual line on GameSpy to download the bandwidth limited patch from version 1.4 to 1.5 only to realize they’re on 1.2 and there is no delta patch from 1.2 to 1.4 s

here's the thing, _I don't think ReasonML is dead_! I've tried to dig for more clarity in the GitHub issue trackers and come up with mostly nothing. I am starting to get the feeling there is some kind of dispute or falling ou

I am very disappointed by this as well. I am worried ReScript may have killed the momentum ReasonML had been gaining. This is how I understand this: 1996 - OCaml is born. 2016 - ReasonML, an alternative syntax that compiles to OCaml,

a domain registrar has three functions: 1. configure my nameservers and whois info. 2. pay my bills. 3. prevent other people from taking over my domain. I can see how AWS would give you more confidence in #3. considering AWS is just reselli

I would love to use AWS's registrar exclusively for anything I host there, but unfortunately they have a pretty limited selection of TLDs. it's more important to me that all my domains are in one place so I can review them at once
