The criteria is that they could get a job at FAMGA, not that they necessarily choose to, but yes. I honestly have no idea if you're suggesting that's too high a bar or too low a bar.

FAMGA won't pay them but lesser known companies will pay them for access to desirable prospects.

If you are actually producing high demand graduates, you will be able to make plenty of money by charging recruiters / hiring companies for access to them. None of these programs use this model for a simple reason, they are not actu

The brief accurately describes Google training ("if you're discussing anything that might possibly be a sensitive issue, make sure to add an attorney to the thread and seek their advice"), as did the parent comment. I'v

Relying on the distinction between reference and value equality here is clearly not a good practice - as a fix, the author recommends only using primitive types as dependencies.

Also the React programming model is brilliant. Anyway the point is that people write SPA's because of React, not the other way around.

by s17n 5y ago
This is missing the real reason that people write SPAs, which is that React solved web components, which are hugely beneficial for almost 100% of web sites, and thus became the standard for building web sites, and with React it's easie

I'd put the blame on designers, since the "modern design" that you are referring to is terrible. We'd all be better off if the web still looked like 2004, and the users would be fine with it too - they only care about &

I stand corrected. I guess the problem for this dev was that the reviewer cited copyright, which doesn't apply here, instead of referencing the appropriate rule

Copying apps isn't illegal, but it's annoying and banning the practice seems like a good policy. I think the problem boils down to two things: 1. Apple doesn't actually have a "no copycat apps" policy, instead its

If you're trying to win elections, it's probably a bad battle to pick. But if you actually want to reform the police, it's a battle you are going to have to fight. I'll leave it to the galaxy brains to determine what t

They had been trying to "reform" the Minneapolis police (where George Floyd was killed) for years, but the police union had successfully blocked even the most moderate changes. There are similar stories everywhere. "Defund t

Products don't fail because Google cancels them, Google cancels them because they failed. There are of course lots of reasons that Google's messaging products have all failed, but I'm pretty sure that the use of open standar

To be fair, Google was a champion of open standards for years and years, spending large amounts of time and money supporting them, before eventually capitulating to proprietary systems. Their enthusiasm for open standards is probably a maj

NAD already basically dropped Chromecast support, confirming the suspicion that buying their products would have been a bad idea for me. And any company whose business strategy is to sell to users of the Logitech Duet is going to go bankru

Traditional hifi gear is a niche market. In the past this was fine, but the reality is that niche markets won't support the development and maintenance of high quality software that interoperates well with the ever-evolving ecosystem

What's really frustrating about this situation for me is that Google has given up on audio (discontinued Chromecast Audio, no replacement for Home Max) but as a result of this bullshit, I also can't use my Google products with Son

They incorporated Signal as a nonprofit, so it is illegal for anybody to personally profit from the sale of Signal. Of course, that hasn't always stopped people from trying (eg, the recent debacle with the .org tld).

It really is the solution to everything. A shitty coder who communicates well will do better in a corporate setting than a good coder who doesn't communicate. My advice to you: 1. Put serious effort into Slack (or whatever your compan

People talk about creating an appeals process like it's something Google could just snap their fingers and do, like the commenter in this thread who suggested they should just "hire 100000 moderators". The problem is, scalin

The differences are: 1. Most of society already agrees that paying for in game assets is stupid, so there's no need to make the argument. 2. People who buy in game assets do it because they actually want the thing they are buying, a la
