Would be interesting to know if they discriminate pay, according to where the person works from. Edit: Further down the page I saw: "Why they pay based on where team members live". That's petty.

I live in a certain east European country, where the excuse for petty and serious crime is always: "Hey man, I'm just trying to feed my family.". People doing this, and those tolerating it, don't realise that this type o

Indeed. Sometimes tho one just needs to pass a data set to a function, then the result the another, and so on, without the execution branches needed for figuring out the modularity rules and constraints of OOP. And that is where functional

Not a joke tho. For some people that's what it meant in communist east Europe. But good thing you brought this into discussion. Communist east Europe didn't have sanctions against, and as a result people would smuggle all sorts of

In the wrong hands, it does. Easy to tangle OOP. But the point is each of the two paradigms has its own benefits, and should be used when best for the task at hand.

In OOP those groups are called classes, and the fun is that you can instantiate them and call them objects. And within those objects you can set a state, so those functions operate against it. A nice feat of OOP is that you can also inherit

I dream of a future where instead of following messianic paradigms, developers follow the mantra of “the most suitable tool or practice for the task at hand”.

This. Thank you. Thank you for thinking rationally.

Good point - sanctions are also a good propaganda tool for their corrupt governments.
131.
by trilila 7y ago
It is. But you see, those hit hardest by sanctions are neither the cause of trouble nor anti western. Those are usually people like you and i, while the “elite” can smuggle in whatever they want and access whatever they want. Not only that

Up until the tech lead comes along and calls it anti daily wtf for the seniors. Then the cto on top of the lead. Then ceo on top of the cto. And the rate race saga that never ends and loads of software workers sharing rooms in overpriced ar

In the UK almost all offices are open offices. I am not sure of the benefits of a cubicle as i never worked in one.

I am not worried about microsoft stopping developing it, i am worried about microsoft putting companies out of business using free products, which they then use to cross sell their closed source ides and as a marketing tool. If they are so

I’ve put open source between quotes because having a near monopoly company back it makes it feel like a product sold at a dumping price only to increase the company’s brand popularity, so they can cross sell other products. Given Microsoft’

I wont support VSCode for one reason (downvote to oblivion): it’s “open source” sponsored by a near monopoly corporation, which makes VSCode a marketing tool for Microsoft. This kills the business model of InteliJ which does a lot of work i

Magento is not exactly known for well written code, actually it is full of anti patterns and antiqued practices. PHP 7 was released in 2015, and if authors of those millions of lines of code can't be bothered to upgrade then probably t

The only company competing successfully with google is facebook, and they are both giant ad factories that will violate your privacy without batting an eye. Wondering if there is a ceiling in how much revenue an ad company can make using re

I wouldn't mind paying 10-20$ per year for a decent browser. At scale it might be profitable.

One might think that since browsing privately and securely is such a pain point, there would be more than one product (firefox) to solve the issue. Any HN entrepreneur types out there reading these posts?

My first thought was “next year i have to dig into all of amazon’s offering to find such ‘mistakes’”. It immediately had the effect of gaining me as a new customer. Excellent marketing indeed!

Yup - thats experienced management on your director’s part. Kudos to him.

This is common to dysfunctional teams and poor management. While those who cut you off might be over excited, others might be plain rude or some might lack empathy, the job of a good manager is to ensure everyone’s voice is heard. Some real
