That would require you to map the SQL to something else which would then map back to SQL or mongo or w/e. For example if you're trying to join data from multiple microservices you can't execute the join because most microserv

Doesn't work that well when your databases are distributed and you're using microservices. You don't want to be doing join's across microservices and most setups wouldn't allow you to anyways. GraphQL provides that

With the example of Firefox, you wouldn't use Firefox, you would use Gecko which is going to have much lower requirements. There are usually ports for embedded systems that have even less requirements as well (WPE for Webkit for exampl

None of these statements are what I'd expect from a company. A product is more than the engineering that goes into it, so good engineer or not, if they suck at the rest of it then it doesn't matter. Linus is an exception to the ru

100% agree about this. One of our VP's keeps a running list of words that people start copying each other on at the company. The last one was "ephemeral"

I dunno if it is that ironic. Google basically sold people on the idea of their services because they were free whereas Bloomberg never claimed to be free. When was a Bloomberg subscription ever free?

Yeah I believe it will also work itself out. I also believe that inclusion and social acceptance are more important than fairness in sports (which let's be honest, it's already unfair due to some people using performance enhancin

The technical interviews I enjoy the most are where I write a small piece of software beforehand and we discuss the code during the technical interview. It gives me a better idea on what to prepare for because most questions are going to be

I think part of the point of platforms like medium is that you don't have to pay for the costs in case your blog gets hugged a lot.

Can you give an example of where they are just selling open source packages without any infrastructure behind them? The selling point of aws is the infrastructure they provide.

Are you doing like thoughtful and tailored cover letters for each position or spamming your resume at them? If I take my time with applications and talk about their product in the cover letter I tend to almost always get a response. When I

Hi Boise person, been thinking of visiting your city for the first time because I hear so many great things about it (except for this mayor), when is the best time to visit?

Well that's because the government is the government. They also automatically filter out applications that don't contain certain keywords which results in people turning in several page resumes full of keywords.

What about formal requirements? The software field in the US is known for not caring a whole lot about people's educational backgrounds as long as they can do the job. Is Switzerland the same or are degrees hard requirements?

If you have all the cars driving themselves they can function more like a swarm/grid of vehicles managed externally vs individual agents working against each other. This means you can have cars going like 80-100 mph but driving bumper
