Thing is, it's not 100% dynamic. It's compiled, so most common refactor errors will be revealed by that alone(no function named, not the right number of arguments, etc). The harder to find things would be harder to find in most ty

That's even more work? Most developers already have redis/Postgres running, the issue there is the added complexity in complex operations. Not to mention, microservices are not always the answer. And even if they were, they'r

Something I'd also mention is, with Elixir, you'll get your MVP done maybe 10% slower than you would in Ruby. The difference is, in Ruby, after 2-3 months, you'll be rewriting large portions of what you did to get there. And

Honestly? I'd still encourage you to do it. The thing that's nice about Elixir, is that it gives you the tools to screw up and make good on it. This isn't to say you'll write great Elixir from the beginning. I'm on

Until I used Elixir, I thought workers/queues were enough. But after the last nearly-three-years, I've actually fallen into a place where workers/queues are almost always strictly inferior. Workers/queues in languages li

It's worth noting, this is in Canada. Laws are different everywhere. I know that in most of the US, CPS will not come out for a single complaint, not ever. It has to be multiple, repeated complaints, and the vast majority of the time,

There's a significant difference between caring about security and one's reputation and jumping to conclusions as antocv has here. Dominic clearly handled this poorly, but there isn't a need to exaggerate for what he "co

This is incredibly irresponsible. If you don't have the care to maintain it or do any sort of vetting, you shouldn't have the care to do anything at all. Literally, leaving this unmaintained would have been a better solution.

It's worth noting that relocation expenses don't change too much depending on experience. They generally average around $10,000 from my experience, but it isn't paid out in advance, but usually as a reimbursement. Some compan

One thing that's pretty frustrating about your comments, is how you both have an answer for everything but don't actually give any specifics, which makes it nearly impossible to actually address or consider your advice. Also, fund

So what do you say about the idea that it creates a disincentive to find security issues, because you'll be hit for them one way or the other? Also, I fundamentally disagree with your example. If they did an adequate investigation, usi

As much as I've been very skeptical of Lambda School in the past, it's worth noting that their incentive structure seems aligned well. 17% of your first 2 years salary is a huge number, but it depends on you getting a good job and

Functional programming not so much- languages like Elixir or JS used functionally don't have this problem generally.

It didn't take Github as a whole a year to go from 3.2 to 5.2. It took a small team within Github to work with everyone to upgrade from 3.2 to 5.2, with most of the changes introducing business value in the form of security and technic

What does an SRID of -1 do? Also, most of the data I'm using doesn't have a GeoJSON version publically available- I'm having to trust that someone else converted it correctly, and at a satisfiable resolution.

Generally I've been harvesting them manually using tools like RGeo or ex_shape. I also don't see how I could be "doing it bad" since the thing I need to do is to use data from sets that use multiple SRIDs. If I can'

But that's just it- only for all tokens. What if a user changes their password? Until that token hits its timing limit, they've got free reign. Or, you use denylists, requiring the database again.
