I wonder how this is being handled.
As an industry we should spend our time pursuing other areas that are more objective.
I have nothing against the article, or the author, but especially with linked in expert opinions there is a lot of noise.
The market also does seem strangely stubborn to correct.
I’m not against coal or nuclear, However, if progress, as it is defined here, includes disregarding the opinion of the minority or does not respect the rules then maybe it is not real progress. Progress must include taking into account the constraints of the rules we have set in place.
We are basically making progress, albeit slowly, in trying to solve the issue in a way that is consistent with law and precedent. This includes a lot of debate and rejection, but over a long enough period of time it can be solved.
I can’t imagine manual memory management on these large scale projects with a high variance of developer scale and opinions.
Also, this is starting to happen for other non software and related engineering fields as well. Eventually I wonder if the U.S. government will have to step in.things that do not require us licensing are being near shored.
Adding on a new feature that is hard to understand is maybe a signal that the design does not support it.
Well, I guess they can ask. However Amazon does not seem like a ask and you shall receive sort of place.
Forcing long running members to leave a team (especially en masse )usually hurts the project long term, and the users that depend on their work should be nervous.
It is also does not inspire confidence that google is invested in their workforce or users.
I would argue a long running team member that leaves a company without gracefully handing off a task also did not follow a best practice. They are of course, free to leave in the United States.
