Why not just ‘git merge main’ instead of ‘git rebase main’?

I’m always been very skeptical of software architects. Ideally, any software engineer with more than 10 years of experience should know enough and have the enough experience to be a decent architect. A team of 2 or 3 of these seniors won’t

But you have to be pragmatic, man. I don’t give a damn about titles… unless companies have salary ranges according to them. If company X pays Y for the Senior Engineer I role, and pays Y+Z for the Senior Engineer II role, you bet I’ll sell

Aren’t the discounts during Black Friday/Cyber Monday scams/fake? They increase the original price weeks before these events. During the events they “lower” the price simulating discounts… but you’re buying the product at its orig

Don’t be naive. Facebook is still hiring (not publicly like before), top positions, though.

> "10% of people do 90% of the work." As others have said, that 10% has already left. If you know your value, you simply don’t accept bad working conditions (i.e., 100% on-site work, long working hours, etc.) That 10% will hav

I love this but I don’t understand one thing. It’s relatively easy to find “Anna’s Archive” on the internet, and although it doesn’t host copyrighted content itself, it does link to websites that do host copyrighted PDFs, epubs, etc. What’s

Not OP, but I find the Go compiler very frustrating. I cannot leave unused variables or unused imports here and there… which means I cannot have fun writing throwaway code while “hacking” on personal projects. Sometimes I just want to open

What’s the expected average salary an european software engineer with around 8 years or experience could expect working (remotely) for an Indian company?

Regardless of the final (statistical) outcome, I think the architecture of your project is impressive. Kudos!

Doesn’t look like. In 2022 (and probably part of 2023) we’ll see tech companies fixing what they did wrong during the pandemic. That’s all.

But you cannot take the tool with you. It belongs to your company (you built it as an employee using the company’s resources). I don’t get it. I cannot just quit my company and tell them “BTW, I’ll take with me all the code I wrote for you.

Depending on the meeting, just turn your camera off and turn up the volume. Wash dishes, clean home, eat a sandwich… If you cannot turn off the camera, then just work. I’m assuming you want to do something productive because the meeting its

Talking about containers: is there an easy way to run “system” containers? This is, containers that run systemd and everything else you would expect to be running on a normal Linux OS. I rely heavily on VMs to simulate cloud environments, b

I’m using (as individual, so for free) Docker Desktop on my M1 Apple silicon. It works great. Could someone tell me the benefits of switching to Podman? I like that Podman is open source, though. Edit: I’m using it for free.

I don’t think it’s about the hemispheres, but about outsourcing. The developers I know who work for outsourcing companies are the less skilled devs I know. Also the pay is lower and the conditions are worse. Zero incentives to become better

Please. If any we, developers, should be removing code. I solve problems. The fewer code I write the better.

At least in my experience, managers (engineering managers, sorry for not being more explicit. I didn’t mean product managers or similar) have a good number of years of experience as software engineers before turning into managers. They are
