Thank you

I’m struggling to search for this, is it by a particular university or provider?

I’m looking for almost exactly this, but an abstraction or two higher - software architecture. Almost like SICP but as a course where I can follow along in more bite size chunks with video lectures. Does anyone have a recommended course?

Not when you’re corrupting only a handful of sales, but losing all of them. It still feels arbitrary to say one is more important for developers to be aware of than the other here.

As long as you have both covered to a reasonable degree within your company/team it’s a waste of time arguing who’s got the most important info in their brains.

I think the point to be made was that if you screw up your browser rending to the point of it being unusable on old devices, that could be just as business critical as the data integrity issue.

Making either of those your line in the sand for what a developer should and shouldn’t know is arbitrary. I don’t know a ‘Scala’ full-stack developer that could do advanced optimisation on React render times, or a ‘React’ developer that knows transaction isolation.

Not knowing either of these does not make you an unworthy developer and unless you have a specific need for these skills it probably does more harm than good expecting everyone to know them.

The vast majority of work on web apps is probably writing CRUD controller methods, proxies to upstream services, or React components. It’s like saying CSS transitions are vital; they aren’t, but probably affect the user experience for the average Joe just as much if not more than a phantom read.

At that level of depth you just hand it over to the CSS champ or the DB champ.

You really don’t need to know transaction isolation to do the vast majority of work on a typical web app.

Also no expert, but I require first name with almost no validation. Surname/last name optional.

I still don’t fully understand the mechanism behind it, but it blew my mind when I found out that you now get personalised advertising through live satellite TV in the UK.

My feeling is that it costs a lot, in the long run.

I don’t think you did overlook anything, as that’s how I understand it. But I also get the point of the parent. I don’t understand why it has become so common to half-apologise or disclaimer the things that may be easier for you than others. I don’t see these same disclaimers when people talk about eating at a nice restaurant, taking a flight, being warm in bed, drinking clean drinking water, or not starving.

For me, it’s redundant. Some people have more access to greater abilities than everyone else, and some people will be able pay their way to a more comfortable life than others, but it doesn’t mean we should have to provide recognition of that on behalf of everyone that can’t.

What about running third party scripts on the page, which would have access to all code on the account you’re logged in with? How do organisations audit these scripts, and how can they audit new versions of these scripts when gitlab controls the release strategy of these scripts?

You’d be moving from one (possibly two if you include the cloud provider) vendors having theoretical access to all of your code to four vendors having potential access.

I’d run across these all over Tokyo, practically unavoidable on most walks. The worst ones were when you’d be queuing for a ramen for upwards of 30 minutes but you’d be unable to do anything about it.

I know it isn’t what you asked for, but I find I can get a laugh out of https://wundergroundmusic.com/ once in a while.

I’ve been using AppCleaner for a number of years.

Do you think a union would hold any power, almost like an ‘accredited travel agent’? Sign up and show you won’t bend you initial ethics to suit China.

I do appreciate that this is probably a cracking tool for beginners and juniors. If it was skilling someone up to git using this tool or not at all, damn right I’m choosing this.

But I can’t bring myself to run a web browser to run git commands either. The git binary on my system comes out at 2.5Mb and the MacOS .app bundle for this is 346.5Mb.

He did say ‘for his family’. I don’t expect older people and children to not enable that option if convinced by an advert to the lure of free pirated apps.

What is the distinction?

It does mean that. Free software and open source mean different things.

Why don’t they put the additional information in the body of the commit?

I see this in nearly every company I go to - everyone rushing to skip over adding anything useful to the permanent log by using git commit -m rather than a plain got commit.

It’d surprise me if you couldn’t embed the necessary hardware required to run this inside a USB cable.

I’ve just got one; EqualExperts. They’re a bit like thought works in the UK. I went to them when I needed work and was told I didn’t have enough years experience in the industry.

The issue with this was that someone I used to work with, who was a little older, had significantly less. He’d moved from being a junior developer, and not a particularly good one, to being paid a decent amount more with a fast track interview experience.

I wasn’t as strong of a developer as I am now and I’m happy to admit that, but I asked them if they were willing to give me the technical test anyway and use that to judge. Nope. I was too inexperienced because I didn’t have 8 or more years as a developer.

EqualExperts, you can permanently fuck off from now on.

Would you work for an alcohol, tobacco, or firearms company?

> What makes you think Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP are not scams?

Because they deliver what they promise, and I get from them exactly what they say they’re going to give me.

Bitcoin doesn’t advertise itself as getting rich. It says it’s a digital ledger and wallet. I can use it like that. Ethereum, a platform for creating tokens and contracts. I can use it to do that. XRP, well that’s one for the banks so I’m taking a punt, but they’re doing real settlement.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP aren’t scamming me. The guy asking for Bitcoin on telegram, yes.

Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP take up around 80% of total market cap and I’ll class those as legitimate enough to fall in the non-scam category. I’ll also ballpark half of the remaining 20% as not being scams (I know that’s a little debatable too, is a poor business premise a scam for example?), and I’d say that’s not too bad on the whole.

If we’re talking about number of projects then I can’t disagree, there’d be no argument.

Saying cryptocurrencies are a scam is kind of like saying leggings are a scam because of LuLaRoe.
