That debt is likely just leveraging OPM though.

Central Floridian here. Considering blocking notifications from my "space launch alert" app. Feels like every day between spacex and the other companies. It's amazing.

I left the framework for this reason. When I asked about it, I was told "this is what Next will be doing soon". I need more reasoning than that, and it was indicative of the decision making process. Turned me off. Aside from that, Svelte is SUPER fast and easy to use. I may give it another go at some point.

Not Rocket League? The inverse may be true... I became a rocket league player after watching esports. So while I was outside the player base, I'm in it now. :)

Sorry, but no. I'm currently disgusted with Twitter's new management and their treatment of developers. It's the fediverse for me, thanks.

Mahalo was such a success, I can see why getting put on as a staff engineer makes sense. Calacanis was already a twit long before twitter was around.

This is exactly why we need a developer/designer union.

I built my first website in 1993, about a year before Netscape Navigator was released. There were no books, there was no javascript, no css. There was no PHP. It was just me, View Source and a netcom html hosting page.

When I went professional in 1998, the .com boom was underway. It was a wild time full of challenging work and exponential rewards. The hours were long, the pay was crap, and the value of programming wasn't fully acknowledged.

Compare that to today. I have banker hours. The pay is great. My job appreciates me. However, my coworkers are all 20 years younger than I am and make similar or more pay with half my experience. But, experience beyond 5 years in this industry doesn't matter because it's irrelevant. Only the mention of huge company's names in my resume are worth something beyond 5 years.

It does actually ask if you want to use your code to help train it. The problem is that even when people have said no, they're still seeing their code pop up in copilot's auto-complete.

I don't mind it using my code because in my opinion, we as a software industry are way behind on where we should be and copilot is helping a lot of developers finish their projects quicker.

That said, software licenses should 100% be respected. I would hate for FOSS projects to start being sued over code. It's not in the spirit of FOSS, but neither is stealing code. Copilot should be doing a better job excluding code and none of this would be a problem.

Some unsolicited feedback:

1) I had no idea what Clickhouse was for the first 30 seconds looking at the homepage. I now understand it to be a database of some sort. I shouldn't have seen the words "performance" and "cloud" and "serverless" before seeing the word database, right? I'm starting off confused. There shouldn't be an assumption that I know what you all do.

2) I have no idea what a column oriented database is. I've been a developer for 29 years (mostly frontend but I do a lot of full stack too). If I need an explainer, a lot of devs will.

Aside from that, it looks like a nice offering and I wish you all the best!

I think the average in my 24 year career in software is about 2 years, maybe 2.5 tops.

Bingo. React is great for insane amounts of fine grained control.

But I don't want that. I want to build interfaces and not "manually shift" my local state management.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't this inevitably lead to articles with the title "Researchers detect subsonic boom but can't identify the source"? What other possible benefits could this have? Surely we know about the earthquakes this article says the "tunnel" it will detect.

Was going to recommend a technical management role. This is a good call, imo. You only need to know how website/apps work, not the code itself.

An, another naming conflict with the BEAM streaming platform.

Sounds like where I worked at Hydrogen Media in St Pete. :)

IANAL. But, your use of the domain in commerce constitutes prior art. 100% get an attorney.

More than stories. He put $350m into it and it's still going. https://dtplv.com/

The good news is, the lack of loyalty between employer and employee means that as long as we old folk stay current with the tech, we'll never "age out".

It's a lifelong obsession with learning.

I'm addicted to the carbonation and bite of the citric acid, personally. Though, I did recently switch to Zevia and now limit my intake.

There are also browser extensions that will auto-redirect you to amazon smile, lest you forget whilst browsing.

I personally love Vue 2.6. I'm not a huge fan of the composable API.

It's a sellers market right now, so jumping job to job is beneficial. Companies are willing to pay top dollar and salaries are on the rise.

I like this approach. It incentivizes and rewards. Even if things changed and this turned into a buyer's market, it should help with employee happiness. Buyer's markets tend to drop employee happiness as employees feel trapped.

Wiki? With a double approval before the edit happens?

I always thought it looked like slack as well. probably because of the colors. But then again, all Monday seems to do is take ideas from smaller companies. Look at Timelinr. Monday copied their UI and everything.

Monday has been stealing from Timelinr (https://timelinr.com) for years now. I saw their marketing efforts shoot up around the same time.

Looks like it's been paying off for them, but I prefer to support smaller startups, especially when all I need it for is roadmapping.

The kids are using Guilded and dropping Discord these days, from what I hear.

We've seen this time and again where walled gardens provide a solid experience and end up winning consumer trust. How do the champions of FOSS battle this? I don't know, but I'm on board when someone figures it out.

Doesn't electricity have a limit on how far it can be pushed through a wire? Looking for a little enlightenment on this topic.

Same. Lead dev here.

Part of my problem stems from the lack of typed libraries across the JS ecosystem. Party supported typing leads to more issues, I've found.

Then there's the IDE. I don't use code hinting. In fact, I find it irritating. So, I draw no benefit from TS in this regard.

Then there's the cryptic error messages. They've gotten better over the years but I always seem to spend more time debugging TS than writing code.

And finally, I just don't run into the kinds of errors people talk about solving with TS.

That said, I did enjoy the strong typing that AS4 provided back in the day. But TS is intolerable to me and I've worked with it for years.
