Thank you for putting software engineering into the soft skill bucket, but I think the word soft skill sort of means social/interpersonal skills. What you describe is more the difference between open and closed problems.

My anecdata is that it seems tech is where the bubble has bursted, other sectors are still looking for people. It is late state valuation where the squeeze has happened and this has impacted in turn how VCs raise their funds, we could see c

This article is fine and all, but maybe we should also have a warning about toxic empathy. This is all a lot of emotional work, guess it is something we can all work on but so much other stuff going on.

Why are these things as effective as they are in the ukrain-russian war? Don't these things show up on radar and therefor vulnerable to conventional anti air defence. Before the start of the war experts where warning that russia could

There was an art movement called dadaism in the 20th century where poets would cut up a newspaper and randomly rearrange a selection of letters, syllables and words into verse. People where flabbergasted as to how such a random process coul

Does the UI toolkit support basic text operations like copy-pasting or selecting text? This is a common problem in the alt-UI scene, basic stuff doesn't work after years of development. I don't want to ship an electron app either

Only web components if you don't control the rest of the page, like someone embedding your component on their page, but I would still give them the control to name the component. That is a lot of work just so you can write my-tag inste

I've come to the conclusion that web components (with or without shadow roots) are not the best "elementary particle" to build a webapp out of. Most of the time you want simple divs and sometimes you want custom-tag. The imp

I don't know about theorem provers but computational algebra systems work a bit like a blockhain. At least they both use a merkle tree to store their graph/tree/list, but somewhere in your description there is a reformulation

No one has mentioned Breass's Paradox yet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cALezV_Fwi0 This also happens in simple physical systems, as shown in the video later on.

I've tried AS for a while but then just learned Rust. The wasm ecosystem is a lot more mature on Rust (probably the best of all languages) so I'm glad i'v learned it. AS syntax looks like TS, but under the hood it's anot

Nature uses symmetrie when it is useful, but if it isn't it doesn't. Many such examples, L-sucrose vs R-sucrose, male-female differences. The same in physics and mathematics, Higgs mechanism is dependent on symmetry breaking of th

The opposite is true of the metaverse in my opinion, it is stupid gimmick that puts form over function and all that, but computer graphics is still a very rewarding field with a lot of useful technologies ranging from GPU programming to gam

One thing I've learned over 10 years of doing this is how much code is actually required to do anything, having more expressive language is one thing but tools that can help me cram out this stuff are also appreciated.
