Invent roles, or straight up lie. The giveaway is usually that they want a call with you to discuss details, or can’t produce any job description.

My response to recruiters (especially on LinkedIn) is always the same; “Please send over all relevant details for the role you had in mind (JD, company and salary)”. This filters out about 90% of them, and especially those who’re just fishi

I truly wish I could launch something in a weekend. In retrospect, many of my ideas should've been just weekend projects, but I somehow manage to spend months on them, only to have second thoughts and throw them away.

I was in the same boat as you, got a free GSuite account with custom domain, then moved my email to FastMail. I’m considering just removing my GSuite account, and registering a new one, although still evaluating the implications that might

Maybe i’m either misinterpreting you, or misunderstanding the article, but figure:has(figurecaption) perfectly describes a valid DOM tree, it’s not trying to do anything weird. I’m sure it can be abuses, just like anything else.

Why not? The figure example seems like a perfectly valid use-case. How else would you do something like that? Edit; I actually had a use case were I was building an expanding menu, without JavaScript, it involved a ~ and > selector on a

I was going to say; I would ask this, as a lead up to CI/CD, and how they feel about developers shipping features continuously, or if there’s any process to actually ship what I’ve build.

I believe they pulled out because of the new national security law, which allows police to request data without any warrants. It’s some somewhat ironic, because TikTok is Chinese owned, and so is the NSL.

> I never do, because I want to keep my job. And nobody is ever punished for missing deadlines, anyway. Pretty much, the general consensus amongst developers was to just go along with whatever the scrum master is saying, just so that we

In one company that proclaimed to do “agile”, our release was suddenly halted by the business, because they came up with some new requirements. These were regulatory requirements they of course long knew about, but only now decided to throw

I didn’t see a sign at the time, but I’ve been asked to leave after the server confirmed we couldn’t read Japanese. Honestly didn’t think much of it, just assumed it was because the menu was only in Japanese.

I do agree with you, and it’s not that I hate agile, I actually think it’s a great way of working, if you allow teams to change what it means to work agile. However, more often than not, those agile coaches or scrum masters follow to handbo

At least what happened at my company, is that they hire an idealist who preaches agile to management, and then gets frustrated when reality doesn’t match what they preached, because now their job is on the line. It was somehow hilarious to

I've had a similar impression in my previous company, this was a large multi-national bank who proclaimed they want to go agile. Spared no expense in hiring agile coaches and scrum masters. It even went as far as some people having two

I don't think this was a bug, but more a deliberate feature. From my understanding, they probably target customers who don't order that much, but are willing to pay a monthly fee for the "pro" features, which includes fr

I truly don't get these kind of patterns, because to me, it just looks like they'll miss out on orders from people (like you), who thought they would get a discount, but then end up not getting it and cancelling their order. Surel

One of the absolute worst dark patterns I’ve seen was on Foodpanda. When you’re just browsing, you see prices crossed out, with a cheaper price below it, which seems to indicate there’s some sort of promotion. You can continue browsing a sp

The previous big bank I worked at did this all, they had an agile coach and multiple scrum masters. The agile coach would essentially sell agile to management, and then blame development teams for not delivering what he sold. Building a pro

One of my favourite trails in HK is MacLehose section 1 and 2 in Sai Kung, basically around the reservoir and through the beaches, absolutely gorgeous hike. I think it’s about 20 km and took me a good 5 hours last time. HK as a whole is gre

This doesn't seem like a fair comparison, when I mentioned components, I wasn't referring to their state, or two-way bindings, I was purely referring to their templating methods. This also leads into my point about the syntax, the

I do find the rendering logic less powerful, I know that in Jinja you have includes and macros, but I miss being able to extract specific logic to methods. I also like being able to use the language that I'm working in, to write extra

I started as a front-end developer, so doing lots of Angular, React and Vue. But over the past few years I've transitioned back to plain HTML (or at least templating on the server side), and I find it so much more enjoyable and much fa

They haven't made a final decision yet regarding allowing international travelers, but as far as I understand it, they'll only allow tour groups first, and only the month after open up for tourists. ( https://asia.nikkei

Out of experience in Hong Kong, this is exactly what happened. People weren't afraid of testing positive, they were afraid of being taken away to a poorly maintained quarantine facility for two weeks. Even your close contacts would be

Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania are all NATO members. If Putin takes Ukraine, and redraws his borders, he's just adding 4 NATO members. Wouldn't make much sense.

I don't really understand this workflow, why does this need to happen in Slack at all, when you already use Jira? Wouldn't it be far easier to raise a ticket in Jira directly, have all the info there, and then mark is as a bug&#x2
