This comment is about some of the replies here. On the one hand everyone seems to agree that software engineering interview process is broken because it doesn't make sense to ask comp science implementation questions for an engineering

I'm amused by your incredulity at how Trump could become president while simultaneously rationoalizing Modi being PM. The gullibility you so freely ascribed to the US Midwest and South... Is that not the same as those of the bhakts ? L

Ah ok, so TikTok has voluntarily disabled across to Indian users due to a government order which is not a ban. Interesting.

Two observations about your comment. The ^average^ Indian, the masses whose vote sway elections in India, isn't the person discussing politics around dinner tables. They come from the houses where literal dinner tables don't exist

> Indians are tough audience to sway that way from my experience. You underestimate the power of propoganda. The fact that you think the tiktok ban was in anyway related to the attack or even if was, it served as an commensurate retaliat

Perhaps because most countries do not want to be like China ? You can apply your reasoning to almost any Chinese policy internal or external but that doesn't justify the policy.

There's a difference between the officially stated reason and the real one. The government still tries to keep up the pretence of a functional democracy, so it can't outright say they are banning things that they don't like.

By magic I mean the complexity brought on by the heavy use of metaclasses, patterns employed via convention rather than enforced by code (implying that you have to read enough of the code before you understand the patterns) and other simila

The differences you speak about arise due to the nature of their design. PHP was created for the web whereas web programming support in python wasn't part of the language design. When you speak about web programming in python, the seam

IMO, DRF is one of the few libraries that can be considered stable and complete. The code is well structured, without a whole lot of hidden magic under the hood (as compared to say Django itself), yet providing immense functionality. I&#x27

Exactly ! What's worse that we seem to have developed this all-in-or-none-at-all approach towards cloud services. Whatever happened to a hybrid approah of using the cloud only for things that you wanted ?

True. I recognize that my statement was a bit simplistic. That said, in the context of what the OP was saying, unfortunately, this is a chicken-and-egg situation. For someone, like the OP, who would like to get paid to do OSS, they'd n

The ^community^ here are people like you - those who also have to pay bills but contribute anyways, in whatever way they can by using the software and occasionally contributing code. While yes it would be great if a community could raise fu

My understanding from reading the post is that this is a shell in the same way python or perl or php or pgsql or mysql prompt is a shell. This isn't an interactive shell afaict. For instance, Haven't tried it out but could someone

> No! A set of bits exists on disk. A piece of software (git) interprets those bits as a branch I call what you describe there an abstraction. So, feels like I'm going full circle here to my original comment. My (possibly incorrect

Sure, so a development process is perhaps a social construct (or rather, using the term scocai construct to describe a development process is not entirely incorrect). However, the idea of a git branch exists independent of the manner a cert

Abstraction is not the same as social construct. A branch as a term is very much a part of git porcelain (which is an abstraction of the plumbing, ie: the 'git branch' command exists), it's not just some term that organically

Heh, no, I don't and that doesn't change the assertion, if you think about it.

This is laughably incorrect!! The net-worth of an average millionaire is closer to that of an average minimum wage worker than that of an average billionaire. People really don't grok generational weath and scale of money.

If you use bash I'm assuming you don't have ... export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth:erasedups Somewhere in your rc files. If you do, ehe, that's some serious variety of work on the CLI !

This looks good and I'm sure it was created to scratch a particular itch but a simple approach to this (in bash) is changing the $HISTFILE depending on 'context'. I personally have a custom shell function inspired by virtuale

I'm willing to bet that beyond a certain threshold there's no use for an incremental backup. You either would use (delayed) replication[1] to have an 'incremental' copy or would take full backups. I don't think any

What do you mean? Why is it weird? Did you mean to imply that you're surprised that he was old or that Pearl Harbor happened around an average lifetime ago ?
