Did a few interviews during the summer and received 2 offers. No AI involved, except screening the CV. But one thing is very common. It's that the cultural fit interviews are longer and carry more value than ever (possibly more than te

I get the author's point, but it's a bit "light". I enjoyed this article which truly helped me to see other perspective: "The Case Against Travel" which cites great philosophers and writers https://a

Perhaps. My worry is that magazines will be full of AI generated content. I enjoy reading some very niche magazines and, at the moment, I cannot tell if it's AI generated or not. So, as long as the reader is entertained, magazines will

Here’s the answer for you. Tldr; 15% performance increase, in some cases up to 40% increase, in the others 5% decrease. It all depends. Source: https://www.thoughtworks.com/insights/blog/generative-ai/exp...

UI looks great, and it's something I would be interested to try. Why PayPal though?

Strong disagree. I forgot to renew a domain a while ago and contacted their customer support. They asked $150 for a domain renewal. Registered domain somewhere else for $10. Moved away from Hover since then.

Subscribed to Literary review print magazine for 2 reasons. Firstly, it’s like TIL but in print version. Secondly, it’s a relief to read something interesting unrelated to IT on a range of subjects. Every now and again I find a book recom

You can make it as useless and as powerful as you want. I have worked on many projects and developers loved it (no joke). But it was down to having it properly setup and using just the bare minimum that enabled to do work. What often happen

Si senior. Same experience with quest 2. It has to be perfectly executed. In the Apple demo the guy was hitting virtual keyboard? If vr misses two keys, I am done with it and back to gaming only.

well apple could use vr + ar to enhance your experience, provided that your partner agrees to that, and that could potentially be a winner's recipe. But you know what's the limitation? You won't see p*rn on apple store, or vi

It won't. Sadly. Can't justify spending 3K on... family calls, tiresome multiscreen development environment, finally - games? Won't happen unfortunately.

Off-topic but thank you for mentioning WSET. It's the first time I've heard about it. In UK, there's something basic offered by bbc: https://www.bbcmaestro.com/courses/jancis-robinson/an-unders...

As a dev, think of marketing as a premature optimisation. In addition, if you learn the theory but have nothing to apply it to, all the knowledge will just erode. I built 3 side projects without marketing knowledge. 2 of them have less than

This... is not for kids. Sorry, but it's very boring. Heck, let's pick up adult beginners. What is var? Why animal equals something? Why is there a dot after chat? These are concepts which need explaining, they make no sense for

Did you use your technical skills as leverage for your career in law? I heard that it's very common for ex-developers to work on IP, patents, etc.

There's one hydrofoil ship recently restored and currently in operation in Lithuania between Kaunas (mainland) and Nida (curonian split). Journey time is approximately the same as driving by car. It's definitely an experience in i

I second this. My friend picked it up in his late 40s and is competing at the regional level.

Ken Block, famous rally driver, started his rally career in his late 30s. Yes, he had money, connections and access to the best teams. But you could easily buy a second hand car for a few grand, tune it gradually, do courses and practice, p

That's very US centric comment. I would need to think deep to picture Washington. I tell you what - it's the face of the most advertised person. Currency is not used for advertising. So out of three, it's easiest to recollect

I have amended my comment to highlight that I've been mostly contracting. I firmly believe you are looking at the short side of the stick. Ask yourself, what can you do for people to stay for 3-5 years? You don't need special st

Why so much negativity? Are you aware that there's this whole side called "contracting"? Agile made it very dynamic - sometimes assignment is completed sooner that agreed because company's priorities change. Sometimes yo
