many such cases

I was waiting for someone to say this. I can't stand make.

Yeah if you think about it in lower levels. Many optimizations use memoization to save clock speed. Therefore, you almost always need more memory to speed things up.

Aren't those some of the most expensive countries on Earth for housing?

Lobbying your local government for something fits with libertarianism just fine.

That's blatantly tyranny and you're asking for more of it. No thanks.

Tech leads don't have people management responsibilities. An engineering manager with your perspective would quickly find themselves without any talented developers. I did not write the OP but you're coming in with the hot take that it doesn't matter how people feel about their jobs and that is by the far least controversial part of the article and one that you're out of sync with 90% of the community on.

I work for a company that doesn't fire no matter what. You can join and do nothing for 40 hours a week while never delivering on a single ticket in the issue tracker. True story there is someone here who has never had a single PR in nearly two years. He isn't a manager he's a dev. The other engineers can see this and it is immensely demoralizing and betrays such a serious dysfunction that no one takes this company seriously. To spice this up a bit this is a high end tech company which everyone reading this has probably heard of. The employee in question is not the only employee who does nothing. I would estimate roughly 10% of the company does absolutely nothing all day and another 20% work 20 hours or less a week.

If you read between the lines what he's saying is that it doesn't matter if engineers enjoy the job.

Are you a people manager? If so, what is the turnover like on your team? I ask because the author is dead on and I've been in this industry for 10 years.

The bureaucratic machine always comes up with more laws in order to justify its own existence.

You are literally complaining about Computer Science

The same reason we read from RAM / CPU cache and not from the hard drive

We use Valtio but Zustand was a close second runner up

I understand all of these words and they are important to my daily workflow because I do serious frontend development. I'm not trying to offend you but your comment simply indicates that you do no serious frontend development.

That's your opinion, not what you said, and none of the research shows this is true.

Incorrect. Roe guaranteed till viability (e.g. the day of birth). Very different and most people completely disagree with it.

Nice, what team was that? I'd happily take that Apple role and support a red state as well.

> Forcing people to do things they don't want or enjoy _is_ dystopian, and definitely unhealthy

What exactly is this comment based on? All of the research says the opposite of this. Forcing one's self to do things one doesn't like makes you a resilient and capable person: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha1ZbJIW1f8.

I get that this adds context but I still didn't want their flag on my computer and their stunt guaranteed that I wouldn't buy another product from them

That's the article.

CleanMyMac put a Ukrainian flag in my toolbar and I promptly uninstalled CleanMyMac and cancelled my subscription. I was already using AppCleaner (OSS?) for most uninstalls anyways.

It's not entitled to say we own our own computers and don't want your political advertising on them.

How is this any different from ACH or wire? What protection is there if you wire your money to a Nigerian prince vs. if you Zelle it to a Nigerian prince?

Couldn't make it through this. Author has the most obnoxious way of writing and rambling.

> Is that not something you can learn by picking up any number of good books in the area in much less time?

I'm shocked that you believe this. Work at a moderate or higher sized tech company. The juniors, mid levels and seniors all make the same mistakes and slowly grow out of making them. If it were the case that everyone could stop making the same mistakes and choosing the wrong abstractions simply by reading a book then professional programmers would be good on day one and make none of those mistakes and college students who've read dozens of books would come in at the top of the rankings.

> I am just getting into TypeScript programming, and I am really having fun. I learnt about the details of how Javascript works, and it is quite cool to have a static layer over a dynamic one. For learning JavaScript, I like "The Good Parts" and the "You don't know JS" series. It took me a while to learn how to create a datatype that can defend its invariants not only statically, but also at runtime, but that seems quite feasible as well, especially with decorators. It is interesting though that nobody seems to be particularly interested in doing that, there is not much direct information about this available.

This is learning to code, it's not learning to engineer. Assuming you finish your book(s) you'll start on the path of making lots and lots of mistakes until you grow into someone with more experience who stops making them.

here here. keep fighting the good fight

Do you have an actual refutation for Ashkenazi IQ or are you simply using it as a cheap smear?

It doesn't. They mean "fast" as in one box can handle more load which in their opinion is cheaper because you don't need to containerize and horizontally scale. I find that unlikely.

Ok? That's a non sequitur. No one is forcing you to buy a dedicated server for $1300 a month which probably has the same performance as $250 worth of separate boxes. And separating services isn't what we're talking about here. It's adding horizontal processes across machines instead of on one machine.
