Yeah there are plenty of companies that don't do code reviews still to this day. I worked for an ad agency for a bit and we were still using SVN (afaik they are still using SVN for many projects today). Everyone would just push code

The only difference between the two in my mind is that the output from a transpiler is likely going to have a ton of bloat, require additional transforming, and be a much larger amount of code than the sum of the inputs. Whereas something

It's not in the best interest of the wineries or the distributors to advertise that unless legally obligated to do so, which is why it isn't really common knowledge. The whole "natural/organic/non-gmo/no-pesti

next time you feel like the only sane person in the room/interview/review, you really should consider the possibility that you are correct I've been amazed by how often this is true, especially in the world of "startup

I'd say both exist in every person. I'm a software engineer with some design background. I got into programming because after trying to get into design, I found it wasn't my thing, but I've had many employers that want

A company I used to work for once tried to measure the productivity of developers by having a visible dashboard with each developer's amount of lines of code written (or rather lines of code committed to our Git repo). Anyone that kno

I've never met anyone that's part of my generation that thinks being chipped is cool. I would argue that older generations are often more likely to "drink the kool-aid" when it comes to corporate policy.

If you assign a task that is estimated at 2 days of work and it actually is going to take 2 weeks, it should be pretty clear way before that 2 weeks has elapsed. At that point you could get a second opinion from another employee in the sam

tldr; it's email's fault that I can't manage my OCD and time during working hours. I mean, same. I can't get work done because video games and reddit exist. It's their fault ;)

There are simple solutions for all of these things. 1) keep work email and personal email segregated by only using your work email for work related services. Also, don't prioritize personal email over doing actual work. 2) turn on do

At the company I work for, email is only really used for the executive and HR teams to send mass communications to employees. Almost all communication between employees is done through Slack under the assumption that communication through

Why do you think iPhone has become a status symbol? I would guess it's partially because Android has had so many issues with fake apps and malware in the Google Play Store that Android has become somewhat laughable. Also, other than

I'm sure there's some people that buy an iPhone for status (gotta have those blue iMessage bubbles), but I don't think it's any kind of majority. I've had an iPhone for the last 5 years or so because I've foun

Anyone can make money on Spotify, and Tidal is owned by the "top, top artist"s. Spotify payouts are based on the number of streams, so obviously smaller artists will have less streams and thus get paid less. The same goes for an

Things I learned in college: - How to borrow tens of thousands of dollars without any concrete evidence that I would be able to pay it back - How to google (arguably a good skill, but not worth a five-figure price tag) - How to write small
