momofarm··on Show HN: Counters – GUI for those who don't do GUI
Delphi! Whaaaaat a surprise !

I still miss MFC/windows programming a lot, I think in many ways it's quite efficient.

But for job seeking it's not a good idea, opening for windows gui is quite rare.

Maybe I should setup a web(!!) For lonely job seeker on windows programming / and Delphi/lisp/scheme / all other good oldies forgotten by rest of the world.

momofarm··on Rolling your own servers with Kubernetes
I once heard a story that the reason some people would build their own server is they don't trust those service provider on the internet. They feared that the data store there are quite easily breached.

Thanks to these guys, they just lower the unemployment rate a little more!

momofarm··on Learn TLA+ (2018)
I don't think NodeJS is an issue, the problem always lies in PEOPLE who wrote code.

If you want me to said what's the terrible thing? the code that very FEW people actually use, no one EVER VERIFIED it.

Do you dare to install these piece of crap to the plane you sit on?

momofarm··on Learn TLA+ (2018)
if you want to get into software development, just go to any so called "boot-camp" class for few couple months.

Then you know how to write some webpages with new shiny JS framework, congrats you are a "qualified" software guy. Now go to write those sh*ty code ............

Math? what math? CS background? algorithm? if you are not going to challenge FAAG why bothered?

if you just want to code few pages, writing some sql query, there is no need for that. and for 80% of enterprises, they need only CHEAP engineers.

sorry for the rant, just another morning with lots of idiots bothered me.

momofarm··on Udacity restructures operations, lays off 20 percent of its workforce
Akamai's CEO, Dr. Tom Leighton's math class at MIT, still my all-time favorite. It change my life, since I thought I will never be able to understand math above high school algebra.

Gilber Strang's linear algebra and Stewart's calcus is the other two.

momofarm··on Udacity restructures operations, lays off 20 percent of its workforce

momofarm··on Barcelona Fines Landlords Who Let Buildings Sit Empty
I don't know how its done in US or other countries. But in my country (some small island in west side of Pacific Ocean), some properties just left empty for very long time since no one can afford that piece of thing.

At night, you walk through that place, its quiet like abandon for very long time, and there won't be any retail stores / business nearby since only ghosts and wondering dogs/cats will be there.

But I also wondering, if the city mayor decided to make this bill work, he need the local city council pass the bill, will this make him lose in next year's election?

momofarm··on Technical Recruiting Needs to Focus on Selling the Position
they probably feared that you may directly skip to the employer and they won't get paid for that.

Lots of recruiter I met are kind of these people, talking to them are pretty much waste of time. The best approach is to talk to them just by phone in a very short time, which won't cost too much if you eventually found it's waste of time.

momofarm··on A Millennial’s Tiny Satellites Are Helping China Advance in the Space Race
maybe someone should invest a company of cleaning space trash / iRobot in space or something like that to deal with these wreckage we shoot up in space.

Although space is quite big / endless, but the surface area of our earth in space isn't that big enough.

momofarm··on A Millennial’s Tiny Satellites Are Helping China Advance in the Space Race
