I keep wondering.. there's a bunch of microservice frameworks in go - a few mentioned in the Readme of this project. I'd be interested to know what folks use and why?

In my opinion:

A progressive tax structure would have made this the people's money to spend. You spend it on what seems fit to the people (via your elected representative) - health care for example.

You have lost control of your money This money is now beholden to a group of individuals who can decide what works best for them. It could be malaria or it could be building a spaceship to Mars. The decision is not yours.

Google has a similar clause too. They own all IP including your personal projects. https://www.businessinsider.com/former-googlers-google-ip-op...

How did you conclude that HN is anti-union? Please cite refs

It's exploitation- people are attracted by $15/hour work. Unfortunately, the work in unsustainable on your body. Eventually you go on disability. This seems to be biggest complaint [1]

The need for more housing is causing people to cut corners. This seems like the making for a class action lawsuit

Thanks!.

how does your service compare to services such as teleport

https://github.com/gravitational/teleport

The information on https://runops.io/ is light, does not have information on examples, workflow etc.

what is the setup like (is it cloud hosted or hosted by onself in a cloud). Is your code open source? how is authn/authz if I want to use this?

My raw thoughts

phd in systems engineering is inherently unnecessary unless you want to spend time in academia.

This is my opinion with first hand experience working on a phD and working in a FAANG.

If you want to go deep into systems and make something at it - I would recommend a PhD in.a top tier university like Berkeley otherwise it's not worth leaving your job. A phd from a top tier university is required for a good academic career.

If it's just interesting work-- You can work on far more interesting systems work if you navigate to the right team in google for example.

PhD is a 5 year ish commitment and it's better to do it early in your life if you want to go to academia.

PhD dropout rates are also high, it's okay here too there's a lot that you learn anyway and the FAANG company is not going anywhere :). They're always happy to have you back...

I would wrap this up by reading this article by Prof. DesJardin How to be a good graduate student

Hope this helps

Counters to measure

Profilers like pprof to dive deep https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/pprof/

Any similar course for tmux ?

I'm planning to look at perkeep.https://perkeep.org/

Difficult to disagree, especially when you are working on a job that is not satisying intellectually and emotionally. All the money in the world doesn't help

I think the definition of 'progress' is nuanced, since it is is inherently unsustainable. I think our existence in general is destructive to the environment around us.

Dr Andrew Ng's courses on machine learning and deep learning

Beautiful explained lectures. I can't believe what a great instructor he is. I feel he truly embodies the Feynman learning technique.

The Wire does live up to it's hype.

Keep going beyond the second season, it gets better, when the lines between the gangs and the government blur

You can never be sure. What you don't like could be someone's calling.

Try to find people in your network who work for the company before you join to get a better idea of the real state of things

I use my local credit union primarily since they are "supposed" to be non-profit, lower interest rates and fees. I used the term supposed, since there are a lot of variance. I was thinking about Chime too

Why do you need a bank API?

I'm my opinion - 18 months may not cut it. I would consider 3 years, You need thinking time to develop your idea, games, time for pivoting.

You will have roadblocks, but enjoy the journey. There are many creative ways to sustain, write about your progress.

Good luck. Enjoy the process.

Would recommend reading Jordan Mechner's Journal on the Making of Prince of Persia

Some thoughts - we are in a pandemic, everyone and their friend are stressed and disengaged. Don’t be hard on yourself

- Chip away at your problem or task slowly. Celebrate tiny wins, I just got that tiny function to work, YaY

- A grand project takes time. One often underestimates the time needed to do a task. Break it into really tiny bite sized items.

- consider a different measure of success. Take time to understand deeply the root cause of all failures. Write about it in a daily journal.

- Creativity takes time and effort. Roadblocks are common, Enjoy the process.

Yes. The area is fairly broad. In my opinion - I think the question to ask for is: Do you have the distributed systems mindset? Not Are you an expert on Distributed Systems

What's the point of the two week notice in this case?

Very well done. Personally, I believe that resolving issues in a calm organized and firm way helps you as well.

I recall one of my bosses telling me if you want to fire off an angry response, close your computer and take a walk outside. This works, I would come back and write a calm but firm email. Angry responses typically do not help.

I typically hate responses on twitter

I’m not sure how much of the hiring is seasonal, but I think software engineers hired are probably going to be for long term investments

I’d be curious to know how has competition scaled.

When you have a lot of money, and you do not know what to do with it. You then resort to buying stuff that no one should attain
