I'm sure she's very intelligent and is probably great at coding. All I meant by that comment is that she is not currently a software engineer by title, she is a CTO, and the stuff mentioned in the article may be more relevant to f

This is an advice article for engineers written by two people who are not engineers. That's not necessarily bad, it's good to have outside perspective. But I didn't find the article particularly helpful. It makes some strange

Not disagreeing, but I think it has more to do with not having kids. You can find a one bedroom on Craigslist in almost any neighborhood in SF for less than $2,000 a month. How much more do you need to survive as a single person? Another $2

If that were to happen, you’ve probably got the financial security and confidence to tell that customer to go F themselves and receive applause and accolades from the rest of the team (and other customers). No one should act like that to an

What if you’re in charge of embedded programming for the milkshake machine? wouldn’t you want to learn about how the system you work on directly impacts its users? Also, who doesn’t want to make milkshakes for a day or two? That sounds way

that’s a good point maybe there would be a large market for it. Even just the ability to use iMessage from android would be huge. There is definitely some in group/out group dynamics going on, some iphone users call android people “Gre

What makes it really challenging to leave Apple is all the integrations it has with its own products. If a friend of mine has an iPhone, I can share my wifi password with them from my iPad. If I want to send them a photo from my MacBook, I

I suspect they might take it as endangering the baby’s wellbeing to save a few bucks. The baby industry has got quite the stranglehold on some people.

I think even considering using a box instead of a crib in the states may get you a visit from child protective services, or at least looks of disgust from your family or in-laws. Does anyone have experience trying this out?

my rationale is the odds of a relationship not working out are substantially higher than it will. Also, there is a relatively low chance I will still want to see my ex after a breakup. So I try my hardest not to see my coworkers as romantic

Sounds like sexual immaturity on the part of the male employees. It’s weird that people look for romantic partners at work. But then again, if you work for spaceX, you probably don’t have many opportunities to look for a woman outside of wo

Are you for or against homeless people sleeping in the parklets at night? That almost seems like a reasonable way to provide temporary housing to the city’s homeless since we seem so incapable of building actual housing. I agree that the si

It's hard to get up and move away from everyone you know just to chase wealth and financial stability. Your relationships with people are more important than money. It's not easy to learn a new language, gain citizenship, get a jo

This is especially noticeable in formulaic sitcoms. Any time a character lies, cheats, etc, they will get caught in the worst way possible. At some base societal level it's "correct" to punish the bad guy and reward the good

After reviewing a string of gigantic PRs, I tried to use mathematical reasoning to convince my team to keep PRs small. Glad to see some actual scientific evidence behind it. Not specifically related to merge conflicts, though. https:/

I think that's pretty minor compared to the stuff they already do, such as tracking how we use certain pieces of software and sending telemetry data to 3rd parties.

I think it’s a net win for personal hygiene to not have to touch a menu that thousands of people have touched before you, right before you start eating. Maybe keep the QR codes, but have menus on demand for people who prefer them?
