Licensing. We do the Leetcode interview in a controlled testing center. When you apply for a position, I look up your license number, then I know you can leetcode without wasting any of my developer resources on determining that.

Given all the efforts to produce SBOMs, it would be really nice if companies used them to pay a tithe to their dependencies. None will, of course, because companies love getting all that software for free.

This is sound short-term advice, as long as there are carriers that do not support Starlink. Voting with your feet / wallet only works as long as there are viable places for your feet and currency to go.

There’s a popular tendency to overvalue connectivity in the backcountry and undervalue the ability to avoid unnecessary risk and self-rescue. Connectivity can actually cause some people to take risks where they otherwise wouldn’t, thinking
