Yeah my first response to 99% of these kind of interview questions is why? I look at ROI and how working code impacts budget and investment. It pains me to say it but the biggest companies out there have horrible code in COBOL that frankly

You’re setting up a relay using two well known domain names it seems. And you’re encrypting files that probably can’t be decrypted using MITM so you’re sending all kinds of “red flags” if they use any number of MITM detection software. To b

So have a good idea, be lucky and smart, and most importantly come from really rich families because floating 2.8million through two (!!?) crashes on an obvious now technology but log processing in the early 2000s is like describing how to

Isn’t this what rpc/pbs/code-gen theoretically does? Markup/down sent? Then you don’t have to worry about the client or server language but settle on a subset of features somewhere. My flow is that focusing on the data struct

I tried explaining to people that you’re dealing with systems that are so antiquated places accept Diner’s Club cards. Accepting a credit card at all was a big deal because you literally copied a number and hoped it worked . People have ca

Yeah do they check the tutorials are right? Seems like a horrible way of conveying information. We do similar things (in the open not documentation) and let analytics drive it. If a YouTube post gets nearly zero views but examples on github

Yeah but it turns so niche you write visual 3D interfaces in Unity for your specific application. Terminal editor improvements are visual programming.work iterm2 I can see command history and dig into problems. There’s a huge advantage to s

Here’s what happened. I’m not in the VC world but work closely advising big companies, there’s a lot of cross over between a Honeywell and a VC. I’m a traditional hardcore engineer so I’ve seen it from systems level (kernel, fs) to web, AI,

We’d call these non reproducible non errors (200 for GraphQl) as “usefully wrong.” You see this in AI a lot where they spent millions in market research or ask MBA types how to recommend a product and it turns out that someone buying a new

Nah Linux still has problems that Windows had years ago: supporting everything with a mess of drivers. It works well if done in an Apple model of software and hardware all integrated. Chromebooks get close to this. Don’t get me wrong I use

There are bigger things than a failed trial. There was a lot of money invested in this and when it was found to not be harmful there was a large push to show success. A lot of careers will be cut short because of this. There’s a lot of moti

A good interview should be a good fit for both parties. Just have a casual lunch with them. You should be able to tease out if they are a good fit. These “hacks” are so ridiculous. Way to overthink something.

I am not Indian but I work for a large Tata like IT firm. This hit way too close to home. There a lot of cultural issues here that comes down to management being rewarded if things are done cheaply and discouraging any agency or self-realiz

Once you get into a mindset of quality not mattering and only pushing down the costs there’s no coming back. Look a large retail brands and how disposable we treat things. They went from northeast to southern US to Mexico to China. The crea

You’re missing a huge point: there’s a ton of devs that went into react bootcamp or whatever. Building a 50 person team on a technology that isn’t widely used or heavily supported by Google/Adobe/Microsoft is a huge hurdle. Even T

While true this is divorce from organization’s hiring practices. I have to fill out a form to request someone and htmx won’t be on it. You will get someone who only know react and will stomp their feet as to why can’t we use react. A lot of

What else are you going to do with them? Subsidize businesses through tax breaks or pay to upkeep them through taxes are the only answer. It is incredibly expensive to turn office space into residential space. Ideally any new office space o

I’d be careful with Hetzner. I was doing nothing malicious and signed up. I had to submit a passport which was valid US. It got my account cancelled. I asked why and they said they couldn’t say for security reasons. They seem like an awesom
