Yeah except that for 99.9999% of software engineering jobs, that knowledge is irrelevant. Also, to be a good engineer, you need to have MUCH more than just some math and raw computer science knowledge. I would go as far as saying that all s

Yeah, or get a full-time job that actually satisfies you. Ever since I started working I never created a private project anymore. If I don't like what I do at work, I find a different team or company that does something I want to do. I

The article is a bit ironic. It apparently talks about people who don't learn and don't change but suggests to them to just go and "find a new profession"... A new grad, compared to a 10 year veteran :D. Yes sure, it lev

There needs to be a new international law that classifies nations who deliberately destroy nature as "at war". The idea is simple: Wrecking your local environment is not a local action. It affects the entire planet and should be s

You need to earn money, sure. But it's really sad that things like this are not OpenSource for people to play around with. I am sure the possibilities would be endless. This seems to make a great foundation for a new MMORPG in space.

Yeah as if Earth doesn't have any other problems right now than putting million of super-rich people into space lol. What a stupid waste of time and resources. Maybe there should be some laws indeed for Earth orbit, for instance, banni

You can't compare it to Java checked exceptions. Java checked exceptions are one of those billion dollar "mistakes". It is the single worst thing in Java for me. Checked exceptions add nothing and break almost everything arou

This reads like a typical blockchain non-sense hype article. Before you even go down the road of comparing sia to S3, what about some unbiased benchmarks? Show us the 99.999999999% durability, the pretty much unlimited bandwidth, the single

Cool, finally people can utilize the statistical human average by automatically boiler-plating their code with what the average developer would produce. Sounds like this has good chance of bringing the "human intelligence on deep-learn

Any of the warehouse workers has or had the chance to obtain the skills of an AWS employee... Or are you advocating communism?

This suggestion is about as intelligible as saying back in 2006: "To break Microsoft's monopoly in the OS market, make it's kernel source code public". (i.e. Absolutely useless)

True, but there is a big difference in the quality of produced software between: * I need to develop for this shitty platform, which I hate, because my customers are on it * I want to develop for this awesome platform, because I just love i

Good luck assuming that life needs a planet and an orbit. All you need is a way for particles to make explicit decisions and experience some sort of consciousness (but even that is debatable, since few life forms on earth seem to have that)

Yet another myth that comes from not working in big companies... Learning a language is mostly useless for several reasons: 1) You will be among the only person who is willing to learn it 2) You will have no capable reviewers, and usually y

Sorry but this is just crazy. I always wonder if people writing blog posts like that have ever worked in a big company. You need to spend at least 2-3 hours a day doing code reviews and most of the rest you are writing code, which subsequen

Yes it does. If there actually was a bigger demand than there is supply, the salary would raise. The main reason why it doesn't is because a programming language or frameworks are not a barrier for any top developer. Skills usually tra

Last thing I heard, high buildings are mostly infeasible in Berlin due to the unstable underground. You can't build New York everywhere...

The author really hasn't learnt anything if he thinks that enabling all Google recovery options is the right thing to do. The only thing you should ever use is "Google Authenticator" and then store a copy of its recovery code

Patching a critical system file with python on a regular basis... What could go wrong?

Sounds good. In reality this likely means Trump will abuse this power for some absurd changes and surveillance.

Yeah this is the M.I.T. and Harvard "process". Hire success, instead of fostering success. Works well for small companies. If you need to hire 10.000 to 30.000 people a year, this approach is absolutely useless. Also just because

Sorry but interviews at the big tech companies have become so easy these days, due to their insatiable demand for "talent", that I can't really hear these whinings about difficult interviews anymore. The candidates we usually
