That looks similar to BPMN

I second this, gets more popular every year. The puzzles are well thought out. They get progressively more involved each day, it’s definite worth a try

+1 for this. I came across it while reading Farnam Street blog. The book really helped me level up at work

Forgive my ignorance, I’ve not been keeping up with this story. Is this just a USA thing? What way if any will affect non US residents?

What a great comment. I know it’s a bit of a generalization but it’s helped me understand why some might get fanatical.

I wonder how far you could get at a startup just using git as the monorepo. That is, before it became too painful.

Not particularly scientific but you could also checkout the 2014 movie Imitation Game: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2084970/ For bit of background about Turing’s life and efforts in WW2.

Running against the wall in the enterprise is what management expect but in my experience it’s down to developers “holding their nerve” to use the proper process (unit tests, PRs etc). It’s not even necessarily experience because I see the

I found it useful. I think there’s a missing guide out there for people like myself who have an OO background, are looking to write some rust but can’t reconcile the borrow-checker with how they normally design software

This happens all the time in black cabs. My wife and I rely on uber all the time. It feels right for a city like London. This is a step backwards in my opinion I’d like to add that most black cab drivers make out like their card machine doe

What is your background? Like how many OSs have you written not in Rust?

Second this. I have one for casual use. Super functional and light.

by w4tson 9y ago
That looks functional, minimal. Good recommendation

"general problem of Java EE style architecture." What style is that? The style of composing persistence technology, Authentication and Authorization, dependency injection, messaging, web communication etc to make a business applic

by w4tson 9y ago
I call bullshit. The EE eco system while not perfect is basically a best in class for framework for everything we've learned about building business apps over the last 20 years.

Don't sweat it, your compiler will point it out and it's fairly ingrained to functional programmers that the last line of function is its return value anyway

No idea why that comment is getting down voted. Beta can mean different things to different people. We all know google put gmail into beta for years, it was solid for years. That's one example of a product in beta. But seriously, take

Incentivizing anything can lead to unwanted consequences. Even virtuous things such as reducing code. This for me is a bad idea. I always have it in the back of my mind about reducing a modules footprint but as someone else mentioned on her

Come off it. There's a lot more to continuous delivery than ci + deploy. It's goes hand in hand with BDD and automated testing. I reckon there's a lot less people doing this stuff today in the wild than you'd think. Sur

by w4tson 9y ago
He's also forgotten that git was invented before continuous delivery and the idea of releasing often from one stable master branch. That said it can be useful sometimes to push changes out of band straight to a colleague. I have used

Is this what rust uses in IntelliJ? I know they have built some tooling that IDEs delegate to for tooling such as autocomplete etc rather than building it n times in n editors

I once saw a very detailed Gantt chart in MS Project detailing 6 months worth of lies about various projects would deliver. My colleague nudged me out of a stupor as I stared at the overhead projection. "Its Excel!" He whispered.

Not exactly a podcast but America: Empire of liberty by David Renoylds is a masterpiece. It can be listened like a podcast as each chapter is self contained and 10 mins or so with first hand accounts from actors etc.

I'm dying to know what the plans were now!

I've thought this EXACT thing and told friends privately the same. I thought it too incendiary to draw a parallel here though. Also, the article seems to think missing out some weak-ass graph and a link to wikipedia as irrefutable proo

I enjoyed that bit too. I wondered how many people on here would have experienced trying to layout a webpage with 1x1.gif up your sleeve

No but writing HTML directly in your class is soooo late 90s like when we used to write Java Servlets! All this has happened before. It will happen again

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Bravo

Had two attempts at watching that but the arguments are so bad and the views so biased I just bailed. Maybe i'll write my open white paper,throw together some thinly veiled arguments, sprinkle some graphs and draw the conclusion that
