Jokes aside, isn’t this ultimately what we are all looking for? We have added so many layers and translations between our frontend and database. Graphql brought us closer and it starts to run into some of the security concerns already. What

Pretty cool! Graphql-code-generator is great, but this goes a whole lot further. I no longer have to even write queries. I guess the big advantage is that when you write a manual query you can still pull down more data than you need by acci

The goal should be to have the same academic achievement as their peers at the company they are working for. It’s unfair for smart blacks to be thought of us diversity hires. I can think of nothing worse than having your intelligence questi

“Masculinity” does not predispose someone to working better with people. “Use your masculinity to help carry some boxes up the stairs” - is this sexist? I don’t think sex plays into capability but more so motivation. If there wasn’t science

There are a lot of socially enept developers out there. Maybe it’s changed a bit recently. But if you think about taking your average developer and putting them in a propel-facing sales role, how well would they do? Something you see often

A motivational section in readme would be useful. I can imagine that it’s mostly for convenience. I can think of use cases including: - downloading a single package from a monorepo - being able to copy paste a url from GitHub for the direct

I think the point of the tests is like vaccination. It’s about reducing risk. And it errs on the side of caution. A test won’t catch every instance of drug use, but will catch a drug usage behavior pattern. You want people who are trustwor

The key point is that it’s rare to die acutely of alcohol. Rather, It’s slow and gradual leading to organ damage. Heroin and opioids may be slow and gradual, but then it’s an insta kill. Maybe food for thought though about how society views

Most people develop a connection to others and that’s enough to occupy them in place of the search for meaning.

Yeh but people are going to love and depend on you and the timing and mode in which you die is going to affect them and leave a lasting mark. So it’s best for society that older people don’t just yolo it.

Even the phrasing is weird. To “meet my responsibilities” as of it’s a burden or a job. Not like: “as long as I can remain a great parent and partner”. Maybe I read too much into it.

Exactly my thought. I only want to hear wisdom from drug users in their 80s after a full life. Even losing your shit in your 70s causes enormous emotional distress for family members. Talk to someone who had looked after an elderly Alzheime
