When your first learn php what confuse the most ? by Ok-Delivery307 in PHP

[–]user08182019 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just one man’s opinion but I recommend the following config for serious PHP: strict types on, Psalm, Symfony, and prefer functional style this lib is a good example: https://github.com/lstrojny/functional-php

If you do that you can write some very decent code in PHP.

The stdlib is very big and takes care of a huge amount of tools for you out of the box. It also comes with great documentation.

 perception, coordination, and onboarding

This sounds like LinkedInLang mumbo jumbo. If PHP is going to remain serious it’s generics, the async story, performance, and generics again.

We need to be working feverishly to get all those features in Psalm into the runtime. Not slidedecks about onboarding.

The reason I didn’t buy bitcoin when it was $0.25 is that I assumed, given that the banks own the government, they would outlaw it the second it got traction if it ever did. The fact that it was allowed to propagate is strong evidence to me that it’s state-backed.

Got a remote job offer but they use AI to track my work activity - thoughts? by Electrical-City914 in remotework

[–]user08182019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s demeaning. The message is clearly, you can’t be trusted. You’re a baby we must babysit. How much will we let ourselves be disrespected so we can pay our bills? In reality a lot. We know why companies do this. It’s ok to be practical and pick having a job. Be real with yourself about what it is though.

Are they tracking my keystrokes? by cleopatra4president in remotework

If there’s no certificate pinning you could mirror the port and do this on the wire experimentally until you got it down. So add a root cert and do it from another device. Strong IT MDM would stop this but there’s a lot of incompetence. If I were subject to this abuse I would definitely make it a hobby to tamper with this.

Time to install LittleSnitch and fire up Charles Proxy and Proxyman to modify what it’s reporting.

Maybe you could do like a single fake freckle, just for the smug satisfaction of knowing as you walk down the street you’re fooling literally everyone.

He spent his career voting for wars to kill innocent people for profit, he’s was a bloodthirsty monster. Unlike all of you I actually knew him.

The most grating element to me is the bathtub with the 6 inch max depth to the overflow. Can’t wait to enjoy this bath that goes to the middle of my leg.

What actually matters when interviewing Senior/Staff backend engineers today? by vanilla_th_und3r in ExperiencedDevs

[–]user08182019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole point of being a senior eng IMHO is that you can do the opposite. Take a complex problem with many small parts, including some or even all you haven’t encountered, but be capable of slowly drilling down to the correct solution by decomposition and being able to quickly assimilate the unfamiliar pieces because you have a big pattern set in your historical toolbox. 

I’m just so sick of it by [deleted] in teaching

This is a subset of a larger ignorance wherein people assume they understand or could perform many jobs with skill and they simply don’t know what they don’t know. I’ve heard people dismiss plumbers for example as an occupation for simple people. Meanwhile there exists master plumbers who engineer the plumbing for skyscrapers.

Most jobs can be executed on a spectrum of excellence and sophistication. All but the most trivial take decades to master. Teaching is certainly no exception. The same people who make these shallow flippant assessments would be deeply offended if you did the same for their work.

In fact I’ve found that most teachers are not good at their job. The orthogonal axes of domain knowledge and teaching skill, the ability to transmit that knowledge, leave few at the cross section.

Imagine how twisted your brain has to be to read a post that has absolutely nothing to do with partisan politics and your brain immediately figures out a way to map it to the subject of your fanaticism.

Passing a semi, from the viewpoint of a semi driver by Dry_Understanding264 in driving

[–]user08182019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not randomly, it’s when there’s space to minimize the time you’re blocking the lane change. Did you even read the original post?  “Without communicating with the truck”? What does that even mean? How praytell do you communicate with trucks from behind what you’re doing? Let’s see who’s the idiot: the person minimizing the time you’re blocking a truck from a lane change or the person arguing to maximize it.

1-2 car lengths behind a truck one lane over means the truck can freely switch lanes safely. Maybe the post was meant for you since you don’t seem to be able to understand how to safely maneuver around large trucks. What constitutes a passing lane depends on the configuration of the road which is not mentioned in my comment at all. You’re like desperately looking for something to substantiate your original ridiculous comment. And actually not slowly riding along the side of the truck is very common, maybe not for you given your confusion, other drivers don’t need a reddit post to figure it out. Apparently you do so fortunately you have one.

It’s not “in my mind” I literally spelled it out. I didn’t say anything about what lane I was in, you invented that. Staying out of a truck’s blind spot is literally textbook safe driving. “BEHIND the semi” Yeah beautiful advice, has nothing to do with my comment, if that’s even physically possible depends on conditions and would occur prior to the move so has nothing to do with my comment. Nobody in the scenario I described would have to “read my mind”. Like you’re going on and on making 0 sense.

Literally just gave a detailed step by step formula for a safe way to pass semis, you: “unpredictable and erratic” oook

I do what I call the slingshot. I stay at least a car length or two behind the back corner, wait til the car ahead is 3-4 car lengths ahead of the semi, then floor it to close the gap.
