Honestly, it's sounds kinda insane. Mob programming certainly is a tool with its good use cases, like maybe tracking a bug, onboarding a new team member or making critical changes to core stuff. However, I just can't imagine havin

Awesome. I haven't optimized my career this way yet but accepting that some days I will code 16 hours straight, and other days I won't even look at my laptop has done wonders for my anxiety caused by seeing everyone with a constan

Thanks for posting this. Yesterday I came across a job position on a company that does 100% mob(!) programming everyday¹. This means every programmer works 6 hours per day on a zoom call with 2 other programmers, rotating roles between typi

For that to be somewhat true, I can see at least two prerequisites: 1) the function must be pure(no side-effects); 2) predicting well is not enough, GPT must predict perfectly a hundred percent of the time. Still, technically you're no

Untrue. I've seen non competes like "you can't work with any company that's a potential competitor". That's for a software engineer working in a software development agency. Had I signed it, it would keep me ou

I fail to see the purity in react with all that useState, which obviously by the name is tracking state outside the scope of the function(eg: it's actually View = F() and data is coming from outside when calling useState). It's no

Because I can't get a job writing Haskell without having a PhD and some 5+ years of experience in the language even though I've been in the SWE field for 10+ years, so I have to get the fix for my addiction from somewhere else.

I mostly agree but I don't think it's unreasonable for an experienced developer with a bunch of languages on their toolbelt to learn OS development while learning a new language.

Sorry, I do not get your point. If your inputs come from outside your system, you have to sanitize them, period. It would be the same thing for the original poster of this thread if the ids are being generated client-side. Besides, you'

Proper, standardized, efficient support across the stack plus well known uniqueness guarantees about the the ids generated. Not that an ad-hoc solution can't be just as good, but why go through all the trouble of reinventing the wheel?

Yeah, I get it. The employees should be living paycheck to paycheck on the verge of poverty so the shareholders can rake in that extra 3.5bi. These employees are such crybabies, they just need to budget better.
