shoulderfake··on Questions to ask in a job interview that reveal company culture
This is so bad. The premise is "Avoid cliche questions by asking these cliche questions". There's nothing here that forces real answers out of the manager.
shoulderfake··on Apple Fitness+ introduces new workouts, trainers, and Time to Walk guest
Here's what I know: Nobody that's legit fit has a peloton. They train on their own in the gym or they do crossfit. This is apart from the people I know who play sports competitively. What does Peloton give you that crossfit doesnt?

shoulderfake··on Spotify Optimized the Largest Dataflow Job Ever for Wrapped 2020
Whatever theyre doing with data means nothing when their client apps are absolute dogshit.
shoulderfake··on Spotify patent would suggest songs based on users' emotions
Maybe they should focus on their client apps instead. I havent seen a worse ux in such a widely used app probably ever. From the apple tv os app to the web app there are so many appalling decisions and missing basic features.
shoulderfake··on A worry junior engineers frequently have is that they ask too many questions
To all the juniors reading this: Don't worry about looking stupid, just keep asking questions. In my first year programming I asked my boss so many questions that he actually got pissed once and lost his cool on me, but that went right over my head. Nobody will fire you because you are asking for more detail around something or wanting to know why or how something works. But you will def lose pts with managers if you don't finish projects on time. Just ask those questions and finish your work ahead of time :)

"People who stress over code style, linting rules, or other minutia are insane weirdos" -- best one hahaha

shoulderfake··on Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
Ya my thoughts exactly. People are definitely hanging out. The ones that aren't simply don't want to.
shoulderfake··on The Future of RTS
I clicked just to see what the op would say about warcraft 3 and the very first point is a clear indication of inadequate understanding of the game at elite level of play. Spacing is important and in fact a big part of the game but not in a Starcrafty kind of way. Different maps allow for different tactics around map control based on race and ability to creep and gain map control. Its not about holding a high ground as a strategy, its more about holding a high ground for a certain type of army composition and while trying to expand for example.

And on the subsequent points ,again op just fails completely to understand the game at a higher level or simply has not seen any high level tournament in the last 2 years. Warcraft 3 is a masterful piece and the reason its not popular is it is fucking hard to be even decent at it online. Micro is more important than macro and thats a big deterrent for anyone thats a causal player.

shoulderfake··on My Resignation from the Intercept
Well said. I can't believe people agree with this rationale. And he completely missed the part where the article states "these Intercept editors also demanded that I refrain from exercising a separate contractual right to publish this article with any other publication. " ...yea so its pretty clear what their agenda is
shoulderfake··on My Resignation from the Intercept
I'm just perplexed by the idea that he gave up that much control of the publication he founded that senior editors are able to dictate what he can and can't publish, on his own publication. You cant be giving up that kinda control.
