It is if you don't want to wind up like IBM, i.e. - a company that could have been so much more, knew it had to change at the leadership level, and yet still couldn't get out of their own way. Apple's renaissance came becaus

Stepping back from any emotional assessment, the growth of these businesses was not commensurate with the hiring. You can look at both the financial reporting and the economic indicators from that period and a reasonable measure of growth

I think it's worth separating Twitter the product and its success from Twitter the corporation with financial obligations. The product side will be determined by so many factors outside of any one person's control it's fun t

Exactly right. The cities had a long time to implement less clumsy plans but kept caving to local political groups funded by wealthy people. I'm not against those people having their opinions be part of a solution, but up until now i

Despite the company having a lot of problems, this is another example where an app like this does not need a huge org behind it.

This is a real inexperienced take about a codebase with a huge number of contributors and users, with a lot of test coverage, that has a history of addressing P0/P1 issues quickly. Do you have the same concerns about your compilers? Yo

+1 for this. I have some sense reading the page but would love an ELI5.

This was a headache for me when I had teams reporting to me from Mumbai. I had to create artificial layers of job titles that didn't exist in any of our other regions because there was an expectation of moving up on a regular cadence.

Looks like the Nature article ( https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-04440-7 ) is more clear about it still being a net loss. Still an important step forward, but it's important to contextualize it.

That's what I was trying to figure out. So is it still a net-negative overall?

Am I reading it correctly that they achieved a ~53% output of energy over input?

Rust, Python, Javascript gives you a broad spectrum of experience and you can probably adapt most of that to 90% of the other languages you'll probably run into. If I had to pick one of the three, it would absolutely be Python for ubiq

There are multiple types of medication for ADHD and as part of working with a psychiatrist they should be trying different options for you. It took me 3 different tries before finding one that worked for me.

Snyk is for security scanning. How is that a contradiction w/ copilot?

Cool, thanks for the reply. It definitely threw me off and if it only supports git as a backend for the open source user it might make sense if it can default that way for now.

Thank you for answering questions. I was poking around Sapling and got thrown off track pretty quickly. Just wanted to init an empty repo but on an Intel MBP I just get an error: `abort: please use 'sl init --git .' for a better

On the reproducibility problem, there are several tools for working on the reproducibility at the byte-level. That's a strength of cargo that people can work on those problems and make it part of the ecosystem.

Cargo is one of the best package managers and build tools I've used. They seemed to really look across all of the problems in the ecosystem and try to bring in the best features while leaving it open to extension. I have yet to see a

I'm kind of wondering if we work together and talked about this on Tuesday with each other. If so, as I said when we talked, this is the right mindset.

It does scare me when experienced developers can't write FizzBuzz though, in any language of their choosing, in a reasonable time frame. The thing I tell myself is that there are so many "gotcha" style programming interview

That's a good point. My capitalization of the title conveyed some meaning other than what was intended.

I don't think that's entirely true that you need all of those things to get hired. Your resume still speaks volumes about you. It's just that things like github and stack overflow show an interest in engaging in the larger

I think the point is that the bugs are being fixed in a new paid release, and not in the release many people paid for. The only thing, imo, that this does is harm the relationship between people developing software who would like to be paid
