I wouldn't go down that line. There is code that makes you -think- it's safer but all it really does is add more needless complexity. It's one of those things where the 'safety' result hasn't really been given

They already said it was a mistake and unintentional. But hey, they're the enemy to the USA right, so of course you'd believe everything they do is intentional and intended for subversion.

This is a problem of mimicking/learning the cargo cult subject and missing the prerequisite lessons leading up to it. If expertise is defined as knowing the whole stack leading to the top-end subject and it's relationships, then y

It seems like you've 'made it', so why aren't you taking a step back to gain some perspective and try out things you haven't been able to? Also, make peace with the fact you won't be able to get a drive similar

No matter what you say though, the crowd never apologizes. Only a few will try to make concessions but it will not be enough. There's also the fact that people will optimize for certain ends, and the most common end is to be 'suce

tbh I believe that people seek mentors to partake in some kind of social circle jerking rather than to do deep thought and the actual work. don't look up to them too much, the best insights I got was reading widely and doing deep work.

The thesis was an investigation into whether the super-rich are better at making money, but they just took widely known distributions to tell a story enforcing that view without diving in as to why that's the case. It's the classi

Oh they do. Leaders/execs will take note of enough people voicing something in common, assuming those opinions have passed counter-arguments/tests/discussions of sorts. Carmack is only one guy. Maybe his voice might be worth

I'd suggest you get off the carmack idol worshipping horse. Just because he failed doesn't invalidate your thoughts and opinions.

It's only stunning because programmers view him as a god, when in reality, he is a just a fallible human being. Just goes to show even programmers are susceptible to idolism. The signs were all there. He entered a den where he doesn&#x

Unfortunately it's boring as hell to watch over the long term. In a game like CS there is little setup and watching someone getting instagibbed in short engagements is no fun. But maybe the players around it can initiate some drama tha

Yea this is the effect of keeping stories and characters way past a human being's shelf life and span of interest. Call it capitalism and milking money off established IP, I suppose. A good amount of manga does seem to allow their char

Is the US chinese-owned because it's amongst the top holders of the US's debt then? Of course not. If you think american shareholders have a huge say in the running of the company, or can claim their works and assets anytime like

Give it a chance before saying such fatalistic statements. Play some lesser known ones. I mean this is a site that found it's roots in startups, and they're are all about being the upstart and being the hope for something better.

You could at least trust how any government of a country with foreign investors would react to internal instability. An overthrow of the current government, which seems to be what you're advocating for, does not necessarily result in b

And as disgusted as you might be that is also part of it's strengths - allowing various optimizations and not having to focus too much on typing.

It all depends. Has @sokoloff contributed the same in the past? What is the value that age/experience has brought him in the things he does do and does not do? Performance reviews will always omit some aspect of the value the reviewed

Even if you're in your 50s, you have to acknowledge that eventually you're going to tire out just by how our biological mechanisms wear out. Hopefully, you have a nest egg of sorts by then. And if you don't, well you can&#x27

If it's all about "what you bring to the table", older folk will always be at a disadvantage due to their obligations to things that isn't just the company (and disabilities as well). This is the bordering on ageism, bro

What the heck even is "professional level" to you? If it seems like there's a mismatch, do something about it. You can always find something else.

I wouldn't draw such a distinct line. People should write code if it serves their purposes and absolve the criticality that if they don't write it, the product will fail as a whole due to lack of the correct expertise. Also this p

It's the inner and dirtiest aspects of the software engineer ego. It's amazing how scummy and holier than thou people really are in private.

Likely lockins. Spring is bloated as hell, last I tried it took full minutes to startup a server on default settings. This kills iteration speeds for fresh projects.

That's the ego of software developers speaking. The presumption that there's a strict hierarchy of competence based on what company you've worked at is a dumb and arrogant idea imo. Sure you might've passed a tough inter

It is a kind of a bad thing from the perspective of monopolistic practices. As a game developer I'm hoping for a better deal than a 30% cut, but then I see the other stores and there's not much viable choices. Also if steam decide

IQ is an indicator of how fast one learns at the job/skill, not how long they stick in it. This is something social psychologists have authority in and not the opinions of techbros.
