A couple thoughts after reading this. They aren't meant to be criticisms, just a reflection on my own experiences as well because I have had plenty of failures myself. For one, failing is probable. Most small businesses fail. The chanc

Sounds like they were unhappy working there and did not like the CEO or their management. Kind of interesting they are suing in an effort to go BACK to work there.

Something sounds really suspicious about this offer. How does a company afford to pay people 3k/month without anything in return? They're paying 3k/month just so some people adopt their technology? This just raises red flags

It was just a bad joke, but in all seriousness, that was a big wake up call for a lot of people about the tangled web of npm dependencies.

Left-bad, I mean, the left-pad fiasco should have been the wake up call.

I think it is hilarious when people argue with Trump on Twitter, because I realize he is 71 years old. He's literally someone's old grandpa on Twitter. How many 71 year olds do you know on Twitter? How many people do you know woul

Less than 10% of nurses are men. Is it worth writing an article when a man becomes a nurse?

Honestly, I doubt they did it for _financial_ reasons. Likely an old division that is being closed or downsized, like they specifically mentioned last time (the old cable tv divsion was being downsized in favor of the online streaming divsi

Why is being a woman so important it is part of the title? Do women have a harder time learning? Is it a bigger accomplishment when a woman does it? Are people more fascinated by the fact that a _woman_ was able to code? I know, whenever I

I would rather see independent (private) solutions before inviting a bunch of bureaucratic red tape to manufacturers. For example, someone could create a company that issued certificates of security. Manufacturers would pay a small fee to t

This is part of the reason Go is gaining so much popularity. It gives you back all the power and speed of typed, compiled language but without all the tedious parts of C like managing memory and complicated threading.

You can already "go run program.go" from anywhere, even outside of a project structure, which is the same result as running an interpreted script. It's a novel idea but I don't really see it taking off. Is there really t

It's the same reason they can't get good security experts to teach at universities. There was a study of 121 top universities and none of the top 10 require a course, top 3 didn't even offer an elective. Only 3 of the top 50

Totally agree with this. If they were tragically underemployed for years, I'd bet almost anything it was not because of their college GPA. Nobody looks at GPA, or cares, or even expects it to be there, unless you have never had a job a

When I hear "we only hire the best" it just sounds like generic crap an HR person added, not a big red flag that they are snobs. I don't think it really means anything. By definition, anyone hiring anyone wants to only hire t

This is what I think most people fail to understand. It's not a _requirement_. The vast majority of people DON'T have side projects. Companies can't afford to simply auto-reject everyone who doesn't have side projects. T

This is basically the sentiment that I share. If you aren't willing to put in a couple hours on one Saturday of your life to putting up one script in an effort to help your career, you probably don't care enough about the job you

This was my hangup too. The author implies that it was simply because they didn't have any side projects that they were rejected. I find that hard to believe though because why would they bother bringing them in for an interview if the

You shouldn't put _actual_ work code you wrote on GitHub, but you should write your own small sample programs that demonstrate you know how to use a certain library that you just learned, and then you have it as reference code for your

When I vet resumes, I most definitely look at any code their provide, but I don't always ask them about it. If they didn't put it on their resume, I don't specifically ask them about it either because they should have put it
