We have created something like building 1M pyramids of Giza on a piece of silicon the size of your thumbnail and people don't think it counts as progress because you can't see it.

Why would you ever start anything with, "I don't really know anything about the Golang GC but..." IPFS GC is separate from the Golang GC. IPFS GC deletes blocks on the local node that are not pinned. I'm not sure what yo

It does not delete the whole cache on a timer. It will delete blocks that are not pinned periodically or when it reaches a high-water mark. It does not store each object 2 or 3 times. First, it doesn't refer to anything as an object bu

A better headline would have been, “Tech industry uses scare tactics to try and force people back into the office”. Been there, done that. If it could have been outsourced it would have already been outsourced. Do you really think they were

It sounds nice and makes a great story until you see all the exceptions being made. “He was a jerk but he did go to MIT”, “he was a jerk but his father is good friends with the CEO”, “he was a jerk but I’m a jerk and he reminds me of myself

Yes, but it has very little to do with any of the things you mentioned. Software became so prevalent that it became a mantra, "Software is eating the world" but people in IT have little to no choice in what's put on the plate

It's right there in your first three words, it didn't change so much as you, "grew up". It doesn't have to be technology, you could probably say the same thing about most things in your life, "I don't know

It just reinforces what Gill has been saying all along, that most of the applicants out there really suck and it's impossible to find good people. That's why you better listen to him because if he ever decides to leave they'r

You're asking the wrong question. You should be asking why do I think so many bosses are bad and who are the people who agree or disagree with that assessment. What's a bad boss for you might be the perfect boss for someone else a
