How many of those can you realistically bypass by DIYing? I understand it saves a bit on taxes and you don't need a license yourself, but the rest?

I mean, there was the obvious solution of paying the money to have it captioned, which was the original order. Berkeley instead offered this alternative solution, because they did not want to pay.

+1 to this. Remembering the schema is kind of a big barrier when you're just jumping in, and that's when you want to be able to explore at random the most. (I also struggled with the schema because crime_scene was singular and sus

I'm not entirely convinced they meant to truly make a public hall of shame. It sounded to me like a list of "friends who want to get more involved, I'll let you know who to avoid". Then, I read the interactions that spar

Yes, unless you're using persistent workers. Then you may very well run into the same issues they mention.

It looks like they work at Google, based on their GitHub (assuming the same username) -- so no, it's sadly not open source :( A real shame, I think Bazel's lack of good IDE options definitely hampers its adoption.

I can't help but feel this is a somewhat veiled complaint about the Rust community instead of anything substantive with the language :/

This was just one example, maybe not a perfect one. I found it to be relatable, though. Sometimes the "add the missing tests" step depends on other work on your branch.

Do you think interviewers at a company this size are deciding how interviews are run? They're basically just following a script.

Yes, you can use your own editor. It's not generally _offered_ for the first (pre "onsite") interview but is an option if you ask. It's made clear (recommended, even) for the onsite that you have that option.

This is annoying and error prone if you use an interpreted language that relies on loading source files at runtime. For a Go service? Sure, that's easy and makes a ton of sense.

Driving is very unpleasant for some. Trains in the US are not exactly luxurious by any stretch: compare the food on a nice cruise to the food available on a train.
