Last week I was at Munich, with +40 other Europeans: French, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Swedes and of course Irish and British. As I was sipping my beer at a biergarten I realized we were all speaking English, in Germany, surrounded b

There are dependency problems in ALL languages. I think the point of the article is that with Java/Go/Rust/Node you can create a single file and deploy it on 100s of VMs without having to worry about dependencies during deplo

Makes me wonder how caching and other stuff are handled by browsers, or the impact of it on load times. Anyway, cool concept.

Two things I see here: Apple didn't copy their app, they copied Android's. Second, the VPN thing is shaddy AF. I understand this is a workaround but shit, they could be doing some nasty stuff with MITM attacks. No wonder Apple too

This thing is dead before even leaving China. Who on the west would want to buy a phone they can't use to watch Netflix, Hulu, HBO? Because if Huawei lost licenses to Android, what makes them think DRM technology providers will, which

I have had such hard times with this. I find it very hard to think about the problem and to think what to say to this person without fucking up the interview. I mean, you don't want to say: "I'm going to trial & error thi

Exactly, we're engineers and craftsmans, all which rely on their tools. If you don't use the tools at your disposal, you're not a good professional.

The question you should be asking is: what's so important that we need to rush on a Friday? Can it wait to Monday? Now, I agree with the premise of "trust your process" but if you've been into this field for a while, you

That, and money. If those women got their business hurt, it was because the "knitting community" was buying their stuff somewhere else.

A F2P BR set on WoW, that might do the trick ;-)

Who is this guy & why should Mozilla (or anyone as a matter of fact) listen to him? Like being a "Microsoft Dev" puts you on an ivory tower. Remember, a "Microsoft Dev" gave us clippy and Access.

Jeez... Why don't we cut the crap and convert this to every single CS school curricula.

It's normal interrogation techniques. They ask normal stuff to see if you lie or you get nervous. Just watch any of those airport security shows on TV to see how many people who end up smuggling stuff fail to answer those simple questi

Yeah, and "everything IT" is a cloud, so you might as well attend any of the Azure or AWS events.

Using a scheduling tool like the one used for conference rooms might be the solution.

The funny/sad thing about PWA and how broken it's on iOS right now, is that the first iPhone was supposed to work with PWA. I'm not sure if it was Jobs' vision or they didn't have something good to offer for native

I tried with a React Native project, so I only used the VM for the builds; yes it's shit. I mean, the whole iOS build process is painful enough. And I never got the VM to work on more than 1024x768.

What I find interesting is that, on one end, there's a "developers" shortage, but on the other, all companies are funneling potentially good engineers through processes designed for the "interview" experts. Also, th

Or maybe it's not as bad, just that now that they're very big, lot of SJW get through the doors and cry their ways to promotions.

This is the easiest route. Every country has its own tax and SS laws that would be impossible to handle from a central location. Easier to pay a bit more so each contractor is able to fully pay all of these too (accountant fees included). W

Great! Now I'll be able to open XML files without that dumb dialog.

Exactly! It all seems so special now, but IBM was selling a voice processing software that supposedly helped you write a Word document. This is not possible even today, and voice recognition is one of the biggest obstacles AI has to go thro

Ah! MVP has lost any meaning. Better use PoC (proof of concept) because an MVP is just a finished product with all the bells and whistles because "product management" wants it all

Actually, the other way around. Without the UK blocking many integration policies, the EU will have an easier road ahead to approve them, like military, legal and tax integration.

Yes, I've made a few vanillajs SPA for HbbTV apps which were very unhappy about loading any framework everytime you change channels. Hardest part is the "router" which ends up being a big'ol switch statement.

I think that what OP means is, where is all the real currency people have paid for BitCoin, how are those assets guarded and how fast of a conversion from all BitCoins to currency would take. As I understand, you would need an exchange hous

I agree with you. The best managers I've had have done software before or keep doing it, as I hope someday too.

Although it seems like a great alternative and competition is always welcome, one of the best points about React Native is that any JS/React/Web developer can go to a React Native project and know what the hell is going on. Even i
