That's another thing that was bugging me: this is pretty easy level stuff for an SRE position from what I know. The other surprise was new grads being directly hired to SRE positions and it was my impression you needed professional ski

This is just positioned weirdly. They use it for on-boarding, which means you already got the job without knowing it or only partially knowing it, so it's not a hard requirement. The real requirement is the ability to learn. But if tha

I kind of agree with their reasoning, the exception being when you can have a lot of complicated looping/control flow breaks or transient variables close to their usage. Seeing 'array[i][j][k]' is never fun.

Predicating this on surprise is the problem. We still would have used computers for data entry, storage, and transmission even though we know humans could do that because they're simply superior than paper and typewriters in most ways.

Which is implying there can be nothing wrong with any company and it's always the employee's fault when it doesn't work out.

Global average or people-who-work-at-FAANG average? The frame of reference here is important, otherwise average is pretty meaningless since we have no objective list of what an average developer consists of.

NGL, I'd jump through hoops for 250k + other compensation Part of why this has stuck around for so long is that so many people are willing to do that because it's a life-altering amount of money

I mean, it wouldn't hurt to know how to do all of this, plus all the data structures & algorithms stuff, plus all major and minor details about your language and environment of choice, plus anything else that someone deems importan

DBs can have debuggers and breakpoints, but they do not come anywhere close to something like Visual Studio debugging C# code. Of course, many programming languages also do not have a debugging quality-of-life compared to Visual Studio.

Plus the purpose of a house generally does not change much. If you buy one, you're not going to turn it into a bar one year, then turn it into a candle shop the next. The requirements usually stay the same. Some business apps do need t

Few companies are going to pay them differently for that effort, so they'll just likely leave. This situation is probably long-term worse for morale because there's no collective sense of accomplishment and instead everyone's

I'm going to be a radical and say it really doesn't matter any more. We've just gotten used to them not being accurate. If your progress bar implementation is getting things wrong, you can probably just replace it with a load

Or maybe someone told the developer to implement a backdoor and this was the only way they thought they could do it? Can someone explain what we get by assuming the Chinese are just so inept at technology (they aren't) that we give the

You don't need XSS, that's not interesting at all. You can get the admin password from an insecure page, and then there's also a page to run commands as root.

No, the momentum of left-wing media covering Trump is going to swing to the other side with right-wing media covering Biden. It's a perpetual, cyclical attention grabber. It won't go away.
