Oh, that's sad. Most of the time, even if the other person isn't listening - it usually helps at lot talking out, you know - just clears up thoughts.

Maybe it's a customised windows 11 for surface pro. I usually have maybe 5 seconds for login ? and I can remember windows xp having to wait for 2 or 3 min to login. Can you check if there are any startup scripts within windows or there

Dude, change the title from "Kids Are Not Okay" to "The Kids Are Not Okay". The first case suggests to not have kids while the other talks about well being of kids.

That's a good suggestion for small to medium codebase. In huge codebase, it's not feasible but explaining to others (like colleagues or interns or friends(oss repos not proprietary stuff)) usually helps me a lot. Like talking to a

Maybe linux is light weight and is more modularised than Windows or macOS ? Was it the same behaviour using SSD vs HDD to account for disk fragmentation ? Maybe somehow windows / macOS updates are linked to something in BIOS (Idk eithe

What do you mean by moving and inter-dependent parts ? I read doc (if any), talk with different people, although it's none in my team (T_T), then identify different services or processes, read their logs a lot, then glance through code

You are just ignorant and naive. Tree structure ? json, xml, protobuf, classes, functional programming, databases with foreign key, database internals, etc ? Oh I forgot you also serialize and deserialize data - did you forget how that work

Why do you want to memorize it ? What happened to thinking logically ? People just complain for everything - they want it to be easy, say it's unfair.

You are just ignorant. You should read about distributed systems. Google around for Zookeeper and it's zab paper. Every (recently with raft protocol) multi master distributed system out there interacts with Zookeeper for assigning lead

Just because you haven't worked in a team that requires those skills doesn't mean they aren't valuable. In my old team, I had to come up with a coupon distribution logic based on count, percentage, time, then generating repro

That's a problem in every company ? How do you know they don't need smart people ? Do you've any public stats or reasonable justification ?

So if you are just doing normal stuff, then why should anyone pay competitive TC ? That's just a normal dev, right ? What's so special or talented about you ? Companies that pay huge TC want to hire smart people not just an averag

The code has bugs and might cause a new pandemic. So they follow social distancing.

Yeah it's such a basic structure we use in-directly - in classes & sub-classes, intellij dependency list on left side, using google maps, etc. How complex is homebrew ? Can no one else replicate it ? Why should a company hire for s

You should mention, what kind of teams you've worked with and what kind of stuff you've built. Every team has different requirements and hiring bar. In my previous company the low bar caused not so good (able to understand stuff,

You are supposed to structure it. I know their internals on a high level but I work with internals of a oss engine. I know how their read / write paths vary, data structures for storage, for locking, for request scheduling, checkpointi

The issue could be time management and every database has same set of features but different implementations. One of my teammate keeps talking and sometimes loses the context. We usually step and get on track. He has improved a lot in past

by sophonX 4y ago
why not design it ? Anyone can say to throw in a time series db but what about it's internals ? How do people judge if you can build or add a feature without asking you to design something ?
