Yeah the NoSQL tide seems to have been stemmed by people actually trying to use them.

Do you have some source here to provide for the curious?

Agree that people may want this to be a bigger factor than it is, or no factor at all, depending on their personal feelings on Musk and his politics. I would say its hard to argue it is likely some factor in the middle. I'd love to see

Did you mean to reply to me? I didn't claim it was or wasn't okay, or that I was enlightened. I am merely pointing out that one person's journey to separating themselves from being concerned with vanity and status of their ve

Regardless of how true your point is, millions of 20-something year old men exist in the market that haven't yet, or never will, reach your state of capitalism nirvana.

That's because they don't "understand" any of it. I think the interesting space here is in getting the machinery around the model to correct the output before returning it to users, which is the sort of space I'm as

For the kinds of devs they've hired, Windows is the third most common development or production environment. I've worked at startups like this for 20 years and haven't touched a windows system. I realize yall are out there, b

Yep when I read stuff like this I think, "nah I'll just write the damn code." Looking forward to being replaced by a robot, myself.

Pretty sure Musk gets a decent paycheck, and manages to be involved in plenty of drama.

Yep. It takes a lot of bravery and I appreciate it!

Mostly this comes down to recognizing the value of simplicity. I like Rust and Go, but I am infinitely grateful that Go is as minimal as it is. I wouldn't have had as much success ramping my team on Rust.

It's already quite popular. I'm less convinced there's a large pile of people wishing for a fairly high performance garbage collected language that are not using Go because of this. There just aren't many viable alternat

Rails doesn't scale well in my experience. Or maybe rails devs don't scale well. The language and framework are both centered around developer happiness, which in my experience drops off around 10,000 lines. That's about when

In my region and accent (Boston area), I don't know how I would pronounce the first and third one differently. Maybe this is a Mary/Merry/Marry thing based on accent.

Love this comment. As someone with ADHD, I am drawn to technology and made a career out of it. I suspect many people here are the same, diagnosed or not. By the way, the "ADD" diagnosis has been removed from the DSM, there's

Does this mean the correct pronunciation is "deekstra"?

Same reply as above, you'd easily be able to speak to this in an interview and not hit the "fraud" alarm. "I think it's accumulator, element here on reduce, but I may have them transposed." Your interviewer is

I get it. I've done a ton of languages too. But, like, that's so ridiculously easy to handle in an interview, right? "I think it's like this [show example], but maybe the hash rocket style is Ruby and it's actually

It's also a great indicator of a wealthy upbringing, if you're optimizing for that sort of thing.

An inflated and grandiose view of yourself and your actions is classic bipolar II during bouts of mania, I skimmed the article a bit and immediately got those vibes. Particularly in how long and rambling the content is, it strikes me as som

Interesting, thanks for clarifying. I'm inclined to agree, though I think the world has a place for both types of technology.

And you work full time as a software engineer, or some other role? Honestly blown away if you work as a programmer that this sort of request would require looking at documentation.

In large numbers the cost of switching between threads does consume CPU while they're waiting for the database. This is why green threads exist, to have large numbers of in flight work executing over a smaller number of OS threads.

Yes but if you generate food from plant emissions that reduces demand for livestock, the net production of CO2 drops, in theory. Your concerns make a ton of sense for some CCUS cases though.

For what it's worth, this is how the built in and mandatory Go formatter works and it's "fine".

I disagree. I think, for better or worse, the ecosystem around Linux and SaaS companies pushes everyone toward operational complexity and ease of scaling fast. So, so many companies don't need (and shouldn't use) that amount of co

Is it the reality of most software engineers though? I recognize I live in a wealthy part of a wealthy country, but it hasn't been particular hard to be an SWE, I live well below my means.

I don't think that's the right causal direction. People aren't using home PCs anymore because they use their phones, or their work laptop. At least that's my take. Part of me wonders if all this advertisement and service
