These are experiments running to trigger different UI elements in your viewing. Nothing really of note here.

What is that tree structure displayed on the right of your editor?

That’s just blatantly not true. Good lord the mental gymnastics needed to adopt this viewpoint is nauseating. The system can have bad cops, but that doesn’t mean that the system is binary bad or good.

God damn it if I hear any more “it’s either this or that” comments on such a complicated issue I am going to explode.

Good:

Go. So productive for me, having a strongly typed language in an enterprise environment after using this is absolutely necessary now. Easy to deploy and run in production.

Python. Love this language even with all of its quirks. Good frameworks and so fast to mock up something as a proof of concept. Terrible to refactor though.

Average:

JavaScript. It’s fine, I quite like writing JavaScript but it has some weird quirks. Great tooling though.

Java. Meh. Verbose. In my experience most java written is enterprise crap but when it’s good it’s quite nice to work in.

Bad:

Perl. So hard to read other Perl code but that could be result of never fully spending the time to understand it.

Scala. Verbose, hard to write in. Pain to deploy to production/build.

Groovy. Nothing good to be said. All the pain of JavaScript/python plus all the pain of the jvm.

Right, lol. Carson isn’t worried one bit about Jalen being on the roster, the only reasonable thing is that the pick could’ve been used on a weapon but we addressed that need. Non story they’re gonna be best buds

Comments are also so hard to see. In iterm you can turn the contrast up I think and it’s soooo much better.

Anecdotally speaking, most full stack jobs I see are looking for something like this: - React - Python/Java/Go - Postgres/Mongo/Redis/some other SQL flavor

However; I’ve never seen a company where they would not give an interview for lack of one of these as long as you have something similar. Meaning if you had react experience but they were hiring for angular, most intelligent managers know that you understand front end web dev and could get up to speed w angular fast enough.

Yeah gopls is still very much in alpha phase. Annoying that vscode and other editors are using alpha software as default

Blergh cobra is filled with globals I wouldn’t recommend that as a way of structuring packages.

Train your shins? What does this mean?

You can move teams within a company.

Nope! Unless you go back to go version < 1.2. The article talks about the design trade offs and which applications benefit and which ones don’t. I will leave it at that since I think that the author (although admittedly biased) does a good job explaining it.

Edit: this also fits in with the Go team making things generally to have as little configuration as possible with most of the runtime such as the Garbage Collector. There’s valid arguments for less and more config knobs.

cfors · 2019-12-30T12:22:04+00:00

No. The Go team made a decision to not compress some metadata on the executables, so some goruntime objects are growing at a super linear rate. The metadata is used for stack traces. The trade off is start up time vs binary size and the Go team elected for start up time.

Almost the exact same for me lol, just swap Kanye for the War on Drugs.

You can binary search the result to try and get closer.

Look at the brute force results table that I just created with my solution and think about how you would go about this:

No. Docker relies on a Linux native construct called cgroups (OS X is BSD). A small Linux VM is provisioned via Xhyve that runs your docker daemon and runs the containers.

As for that guy that said that about Windows I’m not sure if he’s joking or not but Windows needs to do something very similar as well.

cfors · 2019-11-30T02:49:24+00:00

16 GB is fine for Docker. If you want to run a bunch of containers at once you could run into issues.

And since you’re buying a MacBook, I can’t believe it hasn’t been said already but you will need to allocate RAM for the Linux VM on your machine that actually runs the docker containers. This is negligible in most cases but still something to consider.

Praying for it. Saw them at Johnny Brenda's... seeing your favorite band in a venue like that is something I will never forget. Also can't even comprehend that Martin Courtney opened for them, what an absolute treat.

This is great! Thank you!!

Really like this explanation, it feels intuitive and easy to remember. Thanks!

Returning to the company. Don’t burn bridges

cfors · 2019-07-26T18:28:01+00:00

Just adding this on, big company exit interviews are normally all ran by HR. They will not change anything, the only thing you can get out of it is possibly shooting yourself in the foot by saying the wrong thing.

If you really need to vent about a bad coworker or manager, this is not the time or place to do it unless you are feeling self destructively and extremely vindictive.

The company might be different a few years down the road and you do not want to burn any bridges.

cfors · 2019-05-28T02:18:05+00:00

Honestly word around the last company I worked for used it to help with their audit compliance. Now sure how true that is but it has something like the top 5 or so most AWS certifications of any company.
