First off, the author of fasthttp has made some great packages that I do use in production. However, last time I looked fasthttp was great if you don't care about http2 support or streaming bodies. Unfortunately I do.

I once ran an "embedded" Linux on a $10 marvel SOC. It was a pretty vanilla kernel running a basic Debian install. 10MB out of 128MB RAM used most of the time. Obviously you can go much slimmer, but a $10 board is surprisingly cap

I once worked at a company with no product management experience. Because of this they hired a string of toxic Steve Jobs wannabees because they simply didn't know what they didn't know. They lacked experience in many areas. Ironi

Easy: recruiter asked me if I wanted to work remote. I said writing go and working remote and getting paid bay area comp sounds good. But of course becoming the person that recruiter reached out to involved several years of study, betting o

I promise you. If you ignore the churn and learn the fundamentals, your skills will have an order of magnitude longer shelf life. If you know js and web standards then anything on the frontend is just a new application of the same ideas. If

Terrible idea: could you write a transpiler for rust that basically auto-wrapped everything in a Gc<> type and auto-dereferenced?

Sure. If you are a CDN right now you can host multiple customers on one ip. If you are using TLS there are 2 ways to do this: 1. Have a big SAN cert with lots of names. 2. Use SNI to select the correct certificate for that client and route

Thanks for the heads up. I've made some proxy software that routes on SNI. If TLS1.3 drops SNI then I feel like that will accelerate ipv6 adoption because we're going to need a shitload more IP addresses.

> It's bizarre to me that you think that whiteboard coding tests "communication", in any way. It's not like a presentation, or anything. I feel like we're probably at an impasse if I can't convince you that

That's an excellent idea. I'm in no way saying the existing method is perfect. Just that some of the things it tests around communication and being put on the spot and analyzing a problem in a way that is understandable to the res

Yeah that's already happened and it's discoverable enough that I wandered onto one of those pages by accident when signing up.

I agree. I have, at different companies, for the last 6 years, asked people to do a small take home problem that should take a couple hours. BTW I'm aware that some people feel like this is a bad idea but I strongly disagree. I'd

I agree with Craigslist. It's a cesspool. The paradox of freelance is that generally people treat you better and have more reasonable expectations if they are paying you more.

I find that I don't need a debugger until I do. People are always asking me what debugger I use for go and I tell them I've gone months without feeling the need for them. However every once in a while I need to use gdb + remote de

I think it's because they've seen exactly where saying "yes" leads them and they don't like that place.
