Me too. This regularly reminds me that some folks don’t have full stack experience and are coming from a completely different background. I am subsequently much more deliberate in describing architecture these days to front end devs.

In a way I’m lucky, my daughter is almost 2 so she’s not dealing with long bouts of screen time yet. In other ways I’m having to somehow be two people at once, both entertaining her (because she’s too young to do that independently) and run

Personally some folks are energized by the activity. I find it particularly draining. Little things like needing to time my laundry so my neighbor doesn’t pull mine out and move ahead of me in line cause me to spend my weekends stressing in

I owned a turtlebot at one point, love this company and what they are trying to do for education.

True, having seen this as well, the motivation driving the dev does eventually become pretty transparent.

This summarizes the argument pretty well and should suffice as a tl;dr.

The assumption that asking for more information to recreate the bug is a lazy tactic to get out of the bug fix is also a terrible assumption and discredited the opinion IMO. Often times asking for more information can speed things up and le

I find it’s a good acid test. If that’s not acceptable, I probably don’t want to work there.

Sorry to say it, but I believe there will always be groups of people who unjustifiably feel they are superior to another group of people.

Server side JavaScript? That’ll never catch. I love these examples of historical calls made too early...

It’s also Apples to oranges. Consumers in the top 10% don’t buy the same kinds of thing the bottom 90% do.

My 1.5 year old is not in school, but I’d like to wonder aloud how damaging this might be to our 1 year olds. Our daughter was in daycare at 2 months (both wife and I work full time). She adapted and quickly developed a very strong and soci

Just curious, how do you deal with socializing the kids?

Not really, you have to take into account a renter’s ability to pay. There’s an upper limit to what people can afford to spend on housing. Risk dictates a low percentage of the overall factor in pricing.

I live in the Bay Area and childcare has been shut down for a few weeks out here as well. It’s taxing but also pretty cool to be able to work and spend time with your kid. I just wish she could interact with people when she sees them outsid

Agreed. Both most of our elected officials are neoliberal (dems/Republicans). Economically, neither party is working for the middle class

Sounds like he knew what he was talking about... I didn’t get “Ethernet will never work” from this memo, I got “you have some serious flaws you need to fix first.” Maybe it was the tone that made people jump on this. I can tell you, I appre

Remains to be seen. If this goes horribly wrong (I expect it won’t) then it may have the opposite effect. If things go even slightly well, I expect the lessons learned will at the very least allow companies to be more flexible in their hiri

I understand the grad students were in the wrong and they were not being realistic about their leverage... But is it really that awful to ask for a decent living wage? When did we become so feudal?

I’m not seeing smoke either, but I still went out and bought my family a two weeks supply of food. I felt silly. But my justification was that it’s more convenient for me to do my shopping a few weeks ago, than in a month when it’s much mor

If Bloomberg get elected and successfully purchases the presidency, I’m moving my family out of the US. I will no long contribute to our collective GDP or pay taxes. I’ll vote with my feet if I can’t vote with my rights as an American citiz

I did one and was completely angry the entire afternoon after. I think I relaxed so much my body had to rebound to my normal state of frustration and anxiety.

Very interesting, I had the opposite effect. I grew up in a very “red” part of the US and was given a very negative view of the French (or anyone else for that matter). I was so surprised to find the people were friendly, kind and inviting.

If I could find a structured community of dedicated people who just want to have community and connection I would join. But I don’t want to have to commit to any of the crazy stuff religions tend to want you to believe.

I worked at a ski resort and used an automation script to reduce my night audit role down to an hour of work per night. I used the remaining 7+ hours to learn how to code. Then I got a job in tech. I have been automating my roles since I st
