Damn, I remember this, even managed to find my own little comment. 2015, feels like a different life, two countries, three jobs, and five projects ago.

I think the problem is much harder than we think it is. In my experience, when you "hand build" a model of a codebase, either in your head, in your head plus notes, or in an actual diagram, you make *a lot* of executive decisions:

I meant that I recall this repository being even more Java-like, it has a couple more idiomatic examples now, hence, progress.

I like the Maybe part, everything else feels like hitting my head against a wall, every time I try to understand it. But that's likely a me problem, I assume that for people more familiar with monads and all that jazz, it's easier

Mostly, it's Java written with Python syntax, specially the gang-of-four patterns. I recall it being even more java-like, so, progress? The stuff that is actually idiomatic python is either too convoluted or rather obvious. I know this

I'm struggling to see where in the article the author suggests that her ideal is code academies, although maybe you get that impression from some other source. To me it seemed clear they she is advocating for a change in approach for a

Those are not binary categories. If stealing is evil, does it mean stealing food because you haven't eaten in 3 days belongs in the same category as genocide? If it doesn't, does it mean stealing is good? And that's just the

My experience might be biased, but my solution was not working for American companies, specially big I.T. ones. I've worked in Brazil and Europe and have very rarely even been proposed the sort of grinding bullshit interview that seems

Problem is that there's no guarantee that twitter won't apply lossy transformations to your data (in fact, it's guaranteed that it does). So either you would have to encode the data with lots of redundancy and/or error c

You're lucky (I guess?), I have yet to work on an organization that uses GitHub internally. I've seen gitlab, bitbucket, and, oh, the horror, Gerrit and subversion. I try to give back to stuff I use when I can, too, but I'd l

99.99% of my relevant work experience happened (and is happening) behind closed doors, and I suspect this will be true for a large majority of developers. So, not very useful.

Something about this doesn't sit right with me, but I'm not sure I can put my finger on it. When I go to a job interview I expect to be asked honest questions and intend to give honest answers. You want me to do a team activity? O

Ok, but hear me out: what if I don't use any of these, just put ToDo everywhere, and don't waste time thinking in what category the current todo should fall on? Then I book 15 minutes at the end of each day or even week to categor
